lyrics

Learn some sense, Howden

Honey-sweet words are sticky,
Flowering metaphors unclear.
Of all the fucking stupid things I’ve ever done
this ranks as, err, just one of many.
Tell it straight, and keep the beat.
Don’t worry Bean, I’ve not gone wrong.
Venting vitriol, spitting heat
I’m just kidding, having fun in song.

When I learn, when I learn some sense.
I won’t stay too long.
When I learn, when I learn some sense.

Too much, too often – too long, being
reasonable has made me creak
under the insidious grip, the
incredible power of the weak.

When I learn, when I learn some sense.
I won’t stay too long.
When I learn, when I learn some sense.
When people go wrong.

So, no more, bollocks to it all.
So why tell this to a river?
This is the rite to say it clear.
This is the rite to deliver…

When I learn, when I learn some sense.
I won’t stay too long.
When I learn, when I learn some sense.
When people go wrong.
