Seconds Lyrics


She, she used to live with his brother
Now she's an unmarried mother with another on the way
He's second rate, twisted out of shape
Oh God, he looks a state, it costs so much to look so rough
They go to town, they like to shop around
And look at all those things, yeah, all those things
They never wanted anyway
She hates his hair that stupid coat he wears
But sometimes second best, is the best that you can get
Oh yes, oh somebody told me
'Cause seconds turn to hours and the hours turn into days
But still it feels like morning
The first time leaves its trace and then slides into second place
And still it feels like morning
At night they try to fly, hold on tight and close their eyes
And they hit the ground in the morning
But in the morning it's raining
Oh Christ, you're always complaining

Can't you think of something else?
It's nearly new, a bargain basement made for two
And if you blur your eyes you could be anywhere
You want yourself to be
Oh yeah, it's bad, I know you want to laugh, so laugh
But sometimes second best is all that you can get
Oh yeah, oh somebody told me
The seconds turn to hours and the hours turn into days
But still it feels like morning
The first time leaves its trace and then slides into second place
And still it feels like morning
At night they try to fly, hold on tight and close their eyes
And they hit the ground in the morning
But you're so perfect, you don't interest me at all
You're golden boy fell down
Don't you know he hasn't got a personality?
He said he'd last all night and then gave you seconds, yeah
The seconds turn to hours and the hours turn into days
But still it feels like morning
The first time leaves its trace and then slides into second place
And still it feels like morning
At night they try to fly, hold on tight and close their eyes
And they hit the ground in the morning
My god, they're still alive, they got it wrong but they still tried
And they made it through to the morning

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Nightingales are a British punk/alternative band (often mis-tagged as The Nightingales despite the majority of releases not having a 'the' and the band themselves' protests) formed in November, 1979 in Birmingham, England. Original members were Robert Lloyd (vocals) and Joe Motivator on guitar, both formerly of The Prefects, with Eamonn Duffy on bass and Paul Apperley on drums. The band, before spilting up in 1987, played more sessions on John Peel’s Radio 1 show than any other band exculding The Fall
