(Whistle)
Lippy kids on the corner again
Lippy kids on the corner begin settling like crows
Though I never perfected the simian stroll
The cigarette scent, it was everything then
Do they know those days are golden?
Build a rocket boys!
Build a rocket boys!
One long june I came down from the trees
And kerbstone cool
You were freshly painted angel walking on walls
Stealing booze and hourlong hungry kisses
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/e/elbow/lippy+kids_20905355.html ]
Nobody knew me at home anymore
Build a rocket boys!
Build a rocket boys!
Build a rocket boys!
Lippy kids on the corner again
Lippy kids on the corner begin settling like crows
And I never effected that simian stroll, no
(Whistle)
Do they know those days are golden?
Build a rocket boys!
Build a rocket boys!
One long june I came down from the trees
And kerbstone cool
You were freshly painted angel walking on walls
Stealing booze and hourlong hungry kisses
And nobody knows me at home anymore
Build a rocket boys!
Build a rocket boys!
Build a rocket boys!
(Whistle)
