lyrics

I’ve been wasting too much time,
Smoking cigarettes and drinking beer,
The static in my head,
Means nothing’s coming through that clear.

I’ve never felt more useless than I do right now,
And I’ve gotta struggle through this but I don’t know how.
To pick myself up from these kitchen tiles,
Coz I’ve been feeling like something’s gotta give, for quite a while.

Yeah, something’s gotta give now.

But it’s all in the delivery,
Don’t act like you’re surprised,

LIKE YOU’RE SURPRISED!

Put me out of my misery,
Stick one right between the eyes.

Any port is safer than a sea in a storm,
But my sails are down and I’m battleworn.
So this time let the winds rage on,
Coz if I go down now, it’s on my terms.

But it’s all in the delivery,
Don’t act like you’re surprised,

LIKE YOU’RE SURPRISED!

Put me out of my misery,
Stick one right between the eyes.

about

The Bar Stool Preachers Brighton, UK

The Bar Stool Preachers' experiences have allowed them to create an album that is the perfect blend of intelligent punk anthems and poignant, unsentimental love songs, both combined with the most infectious music you’ll hear this decade. “Grazie Governo” (Italian for “Thank You Government”) exemplifies this, as the tongue-in-cheek title is the first indication that they're wise beyond their years. ... more

YEEEES! YEEEES! Twenty years later than I would have liked, but hells yes! I stumbled upon "No manners in Ireland" yesterday, cueing the easiest binge buy in a while. This is a nice blend of skillful instrumentalism, great lead voice and good tunes. The old Toasters / Madness / Bosstones fan in me is bouncing off the ceiling again. Thank you for that. You seem to be gathering steam as well. Here's to a long run! raphaelhythlodai
