Swagger

The Blue Aeroplanes Swagger Lyrics
1.Jacket Hangs

Lyricist:Angelo Bruschini, Langley Gerard Robert

Pick a card, any card, wrong
Pick 19th century twin-set pearls in a new clasp
Brass neck, collar me, right
We need a suit, we press a suit so collar me, collar me
Siamese cat drapes, roughneck honey

We press a suit, we set in train
We press a suit, we swan about, we set in train
We set in train, swan about
We swan about, we swan about

I believe in what passes for a center, collar me
In spite of dress, your boyfriend link, crooked arm
I want to see inside, I want to see inside
I want to be inside, I want to see inside our most difficult act

We set in train, swan about
We press a suit, we swan about
From rack shop to hanger blade
We set in train, swan about
We press a suit, we swan about
That line around your eyes means

You can see, see better than I can, than I see you
Then I make contact, swing, loosen up
Let those arms rotate like helicopter blades
Lift little jump and skip the rest

Like coral or groves the cards are marked
Your eyes are mine, colored anew and set in train
I passed the test, I think I passed, I think I'm fine
Yes, jacket hangs just so and you're inside

We set in train, we press a suit
We press a suit, we swan about
We press a suit, we set in train
We swan about, we swan about


2.Careful Boy

Lyricist:Allen Rodney

Looking at this world I've made
I don't feel there's much good
In feeling proud today

And when I think of how we talked
How we started out
I feel a little bit lesser inside

Looking now at this careful mess
Looking at this room
Nothing ever seems to change

Oh, looking at this photograph
Things were better then
Things were all so different then

You can kick me, you can punch me
You can say I speak the truth
You will never, never ever
Find out where it hurts

Oh, we were young and free
We had things
They couldn't even dream about

The fields were the greatest things
I ever, ever saw and more
I ever saw in this whole world

All dressed up and no place to go
Always somewhere we can't go
You and I just sat down there
All we did was sit down there.

And why, never saw, never knew?
Why, didn't you, didn't you?
Why, never saw, never knew?
Why?

The lorries that drive by now
Keep me awake
They've kept me awake for far too long

Long distance travel wears me out
Long distance travel tires me
Their sound is a sound I know too well

Every day gets a little longer
Talk, talk, talk and talk some more
You and I just sat down there
All we did was sit down there

And why, never saw, never knew?
Why, didn't you, didn't you?
Why, never saw, never knew?
Why?
