Never Never (December 2001 demo) Songtext
von The Libertines

I was sucking on a cigarette
Where did that crowd come from?
They′re all the pennies for the slot machines
Sell you back your dreams
That's fine in hell, boy
That′s fine with you

Why don't we try it again now?
My heart won't sing
Until that story′s all untold
Yeah, she buckled her spine, tattered my soul
Ain′t that a wonder?

Oh, but didn't you always say
There′s gonna be a better way?
Oh, I'm still lining them up
And knocking them down with you


Did you see this girl, that girl
Look, oh, never never
Can I stay here forever?
You have it on the never, never, never you mind
I′ll find it somewhere over the railings

Oh but didn't that tall man say
There′s gonna be a better way?
Oh, I'm still lining them up
And knocking them down with you

I was sucking on a string
Where did that crowd come from?
See there all the pennies from the slot machines
Sell you back your dreams
That's fine in hell, boy
That′s fine with you
Oh but didn′t you always say
There's gonna be a better way?
Oh, I′m still lining them up
Knocking them down with you

Lining them up now
Knocking them down, baby, with you
