"Night Of The Hunter" lyrics
"Night Of The Hunter"
Love and hate
Tattooed on the knuckles
Around the handles of a blade
On the knuckles
Around the handles of a blade
Your bloody blade
Now here it comes
Flashing lights and sirens...
You know it won't be long
Time for the radio to play your last song
Your last song
I'm just calling to tell you baby
They'll be taking me away for a while
Well don't blame me, it's the world that made me
And they're taking me away for a...
Taking me away for a...
Yes, how well they come
Flashing lights and sirens scream
You know they won't be long
Just time to call the missus and tell her what you've done
Now you've done wrong
I was calling to tell you baby
That they're taking me away for a while
Ah you can't blame me it's this world that's made me
Now they're taking me away for a
Taking me away for a...
Oh you've got to know
As you wash the blood out of your clothes
You can clean your clothes
You'll never clean your soul, no, no
ACAB, tattooed on your knuckles
Does the world know what it means?
Now they're, slipping on the bracelets are you so young and hard and mean
So cold and mean
I'm just calling to tell you baby
That they're taking me away for a while
No don't blame me it's this world that's made me
Now they're taking me away for a...
Taking me away for a...
Love and hate on your knuckles
On your white knuckles
Love and hate on your knuckles
The handles of a blade
The handles of a

Stereophonics - "Local Boy In The Photograph" There's no mistake, I smell that smell
It's that time of year again, I can taste the air
The clocks go back, railway track
Something blocks the line again

The Raconteurs - "Steady, As She Goes" Find yourself a girl, and settle down
Live a simple life in a quiet town
Steady as she goes (steady as she goes)
Steady as she goes (steady as she goes)
So steady as she goes

The Stone Roses - "Ten Storey Love Song" When your heart is black and broken
And you need a helping hand
When you're so much in love
You don't know just how much you can stand
When your questions go unanswered
And the silence is killing...
The Maccabees - "Latchmere" Swim, swim, swim, swim, swimming
Stay in your lanes
Swim, swim, swim, swim, swimming
Just stay in your lanes
No bombing and no heavy petting
So just stay in your lanes

Fontaines D.C. - "Roy's Tune" The breeze in the night time would kill you stone dead
It was the message I heard when the company said
"There is no warning and there is no future"
I like the way they treat me but I hate the way...
