Drawing Crazy Patterns Lyrics


It's like he's sleeping now
He got married in a rush
Eight months on and summer's gone
He finds it hard to adjustHe's feeling younger now
Younger than he was before
He wishes he could change his mind
Yeah old mistakes they seem so smallAnd if he had to be you
Then he'd get out and do the things he's always wantedStanding outside
Like a joker on a hill
He's drawing crazy patterns
With his shoesSome people push by
And everyone is cursing them
But he doesn't raise his hand
He broke his dreams and lost a friendHe's asking questions now
You caught in his confusion
He shakes his head and looks at me
Then he shouts out loudIf you had to be me
Would you get out and do the things you've always wantedStanding outside

Like a joker on a hill
He's drawing crazy patterns
With his shoesStanding outside
Like a joker on a hill
He's drawing crazy patterns
With his shoesIt's like he's sleeping now
When you're gazing at the floor
And on this late night
It's getting harder now harder nowStanding outside
Like a joker on a hill
He's drawing crazy patterns
With his shoesStanding outside
Like a joker on a hill
He's drawing crazy patterns
With his shoesHe's drawing crazy patterns
With his shoes
He's drawing crazy patterns
With his shoes

Texas is an alternative rock band which formed in Glasgow, Scotland in 1986 and fronted by singer Sharleen Spiteri. The band was founded by Johnny McElhone (of Altered Images), taking the name from the 1984 Wim Wenders movie Paris, Texas. Their musical sound went from blues rock from debut album Southside (1989), via blue eyed soul of White On Blonde (1997) to the disco pop of their most recent release Red Book (2005).

Sharleen Spiteri (vocals, guitar), Ally McErlaine (guitar) and Johnny McElhone (bass) have survived all line ups.

In 1994, Ellen DeGeneres requested the use of the Texas track "So Called Friend" as the theme tune for her self-titled ABC Comedy Show. Sharleen and Ally flew to the US to re-record the song to fit the theme song to the sitcom.

Sharleen Spiteri was asked to play the main role in movie "Moulin Rouge" but declined as she did not want to spend 12 months in Australia. Spiteri announced soon after declining that she was pregnant with her first child. In 2008 Sharleen released her first solo album Melody

Guitarist Ally McErlaine is married to Shelly Poole of 90s pop group Alisha's Attic.

Texas have had 7 studio albums and 1 greatest hits package:

Southside (Number 3 in UK chart - March 1989)
Mothers Heaven (Number 32 in UK chart - October 1991)
Ricks Road (Number 18 in UK chart - November 1993)
White On Blonde (Number 1 in UK chart - February 1997)
The Hush (Number 1 in UK chart - May 1999)
The Greatest Hits (Number 1 in UK chart - November 2000)
Careful What You Wish For (Number 5 in UK chart - November 2003)
Red Book (Number 16 in UK chart - November 2005)


Spiteri, the cousin of ex-Gun front man, Mark Rankin, recorded some of the vocals on Gun's first album "Taking on the World" and is now releasing solo material.
