The Charlatans UK Warm Sounds (EP) Lyrics
1.Blackened Blue Eyes

A Charlatan I*
Noble and wild
Hustlin' for tricks to help you feel loved
And we all need a shoulder to cry on.... once in a while
And there won't be a dry eye
In the house tonight

Blackened blue eyes
I don't care too much for your
Circumstances or you
Situation wise

A Charlatan I
Will blossom and die
One day you'll find a real need for love
Or you live with the fear for
The rest of your life
And there won't be a dry eye
In the house tonight

Blackened blue eyes
I don't care too much for your
Circumstances or you
Situation wise

The one thing I hate
The numb and the fake
The gutless who rape
The jaws of a snake
We all need a best friend
We can trust with our lives till the end
And there won't be a dry eye
In the house tonight

Blackened blue eyes
I don't care too much much final chances
Ride out into a world of random
Prostitutes
I'll show you some fantastic scenes
And it will be alright
Blackened blue eyes
Blackened blue eyes
Blackened blue eyes


2.Oh! Vanity

When I was a little child*
What you'd call a runaway
Find me with a latch and key
Crawling in the dirt

There's a problem just for me
I have a thousand worlds to see
Always one for running wild
and dressing up to be like You

Oh Vanity, Oh Vanity
Will keep me from insanity
This heart of mine would rather die
Than live a life of humanity

And now I'm all grown up to be
A paranoid schizophenic
My friends are all like me and You
I cannot tell em what to do

There's another world to see
Lie down with dogs and you'll get fleas
When Paris gave her hand to me
It felt like an eternity

Now as I feel I'm growing up
It's like a drug
It's like a drug

Oh promise me Oh promise me
You'll save the one last dance for me


3.One To Another

Lyricist:Martin Victor Blunt, Jon Brookes, Timothy Burgess, Mark
Vincent Collins, Robert James Collins

One to another, sister and a brother
And changing the way that you feel
Pleased to meet you, hope I never see you
I'll be at ease watchin' you sleep, watchin' you smile

Love, I adore you
Always lookin' for you
And I'll be there whenever you need me
Be my Spider Woman, I'll be your Spider Man

I hear our day is comin', gets sweeter every year
Tomorrow could be too easy and today's gonna be too near
Trust is for believers and love can keep the faith
I don't need you, I can't buy you, I can't hurt you

One to another, peace to my brother
Always giving me his thing for free
Sad to knock you, it's good to rock you
And I'll do it, the best that I can

I hear our day is coming, gets sweeter every year
Tomorrow could be too easy and today's gonna be too near
Trust is for believers and love can keep the faith
I don't need you, I can't buy you, I can't hurt you

Stand by my accusations
I'll come clean, don't need no vice
I know you wanna keep me waitin'
I think it's funny that you might

Love is hard to leave and it's hard to never have
Can you please crawl out your window?
You can play with all my love
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Box up all our records
And a head full of ideas
And a hand full of escape routes
They're gonna burn you


4.North Country Boy

Hey country boy
Hey country boy
What are you sad about?
Everyday you make the sun come out
Even in the pouring rain I'll come to see you
And I'll save you, I'll save you

What do you care about
And she says 'This and that'
What do I mean to you
I'll show you if you want the truth
I can't remember I don't know how to tell you
But I love you just the same

How many eyes must a young girl have
I know she makes you cry, I know she makes you laugh
I'll be good to you if I could I'd make you happy
If I had a son I'd be good to my daddy
Who loves you though I bet it's not the same
As you're north country boy

Hey country boy
What are you sad about?
I think we'll work it out
Even in the morning rain, he'll come to see you
Hope your feelings are the same

How many ears must a young girl have
I know she hears you cry, I know she hears you laugh
Itchy and scratchy come runnin' up the alley
If you be good I'll be good to your daddy
Who loves you though I bet it's not the same
As you're north country boy

What do you care about
And she says 'This and that'
What do I mean to you
I'll show you if you want the truth
I threw it all away, don't know where I put it
But I miss it all the same

How many eyes must a young girl have
I know she makes you cry, I know she makes you laugh
I'll be good to you if I could I'd make you happy
If I'll be good I'll be good to your daddy
Who loves you though I bet it's not the same
As you're north country boy


5.The Only One I Know

The only one I know
Has come to take me away
The only one I know
Is mine when she stitches me

The only one I see
Has found an aching in me
The only one I see
Has turned her tongue into me

Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain

The only one I know
Never cries, never opens her eyes
The only one I know
Wide awake and then she's away

The only one I see
Is mine when she walks down the street
The only one I see
Has carved her way in to me

Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain
Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain

Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain
Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain
