Elbow – Lippy Kids lyrics
(Whistle)

Lippy kids on the corner again
Lippy kids on the corner begin settling like crows
Though I never perfected the simian stroll
The cigarette scent, it was everything then

Do they know those days are golden?
Build a rocket boys!
Build a rocket boys!

One long june I came down from the trees
And kerbstone cool
You were freshly painted angel walking on walls
Stealing booze and hourlong hungry kisses

Nobody knew me at home anymore
Build a rocket boys!
Build a rocket boys!
Build a rocket boys!

Lippy kids on the corner again
Lippy kids on the corner begin settling like crows
And I never effected that simian stroll, no

(Whistle)

Do they know those days are golden?
Build a rocket boys!
Build a rocket boys!

One long june I came down from the trees
And kerbstone cool
You were freshly painted angel walking on walls
Stealing booze and hourlong hungry kisses

And nobody knows me at home anymore
Build a rocket boys!
Build a rocket boys!
Build a rocket boys!

(Whistle)
