"Landmines" lyrics

"Landmines"

Off-licence open signs
Light up my eyes
Like I've just won the Lotto
But those boys in the 95s
Human landmines
Oh, we just want the shop though

Walk round, keep your head down
We won't make a sound
'Cause we've no time to fight, no
"Eh, dickhead! What's that look about?"
He's calling out
So it looks like we might though

But I'm getting tempted and I tell you so
'Cause I know how that feeling, know how that feeling flows
I'm getting tempted and I tell you so
'Cause I know how that feeling, know how that feeling grows

Now we're walking round all night
Dodging all the landmines
Tunnels and a three
That's the only way we'll be alright
Now we're walking round all night
Dodging all the landmines
Tunnels and a three
That's the only way we'll be alright

Left, right, marching down the backs
It's us and Frosty Jack
Tryna chase a bubble
Oh, he knows a quicker way
Through the estate
It's not worth the trouble

Walk round, keep our heads down
Go straight through town
But I don't see the need though
Get back to where they're sat
D'ya want a go of that?
So I'll have to agree though

But I'm getting tempted and I tell you so
'Cause I know how that feeling, know how that feeling flows
I'm getting tempted and I tell you so
'Cause I know how that feeling, know how that feeling grows

Now we're walking round all night
Dodging all the landmines
Tunnels and a three
That's the only way we'll be alright
Now we're walking round all night
Dodging all the landmines
Tunnels and a three
That's the only way we'll be alright

She's foaming in the corners
And, no, we can't ignore her
She's taken far too much
And why the fuck did no one warn her?
You claim you never saw her
She's coming round
She says she's sound
Oh, but you'll have to ring a taxi
I ain't walking her through town
And as their phone picks up
She grabs mine and puts it down
And she says, "Yeah, I'm feeling alright
We'll sleep under the half pipe
We'll go halves on a three
And I swear I'm gonna be alright"
She says, "Yeah, I'm feeling alright
We'll sleep under the half pipe
We'll go halves on a three
And I swear I'm gonna be alright"

Now we're walking round all night
Dodging all the landmines
Tunnels and a three
That's the only way we'll be alright
Now we're walking round all night
Dodging all the landmines
Tunnels and a three
That's the only way we'll be alright
