Fifteen Years - Levellers [00:00:03]
I never was a violent man[00:00:26]
Said the man in the bar with his head in his hands[00:00:29]
He's trying his best to understand the 'cause of his dismay[00:00:32]
But the years of gin have broken him[00:00:38]
They've left him cold where he's fitted in[00:00:42]
But it's too late now to turn around and find another way[00:00:45]
And the lights in the late night lock-in[00:00:51]
Have faded away when he gets in[00:00:54]
The girl from fifteen years ago[00:00:58]
Has packed and gone away[00:01:01]
That's never how it used to be what happened to all that energy[00:01:17]
You took one too many liberties I'm tired of being afraid[00:01:23]
So after the fight she took flight hiding swollen eyes and a wounded pride[00:01:30]
The best years of her life denied is sold for liquid shares[00:01:36]
And the lights in the late night lock-in[00:01:42]
Have faded away when he gets in[00:01:46]
The girl from fifteen years ago[00:01:49]
Has packed and gone away[00:01:52]
And the victims of their world[00:01:56]
Are advertised on posters[00:01:59]
Just a beach and a pretty girl[00:02:02]
You just take this potion[00:02:06]
It's another week till his check comes through[00:02:10]
He's got a fiver left to spend on food[00:02:14]
The doors of the bar are open and he breaks another rule[00:02:17]
But he sits on the stool that bears his name[00:02:23]
He's got a favorite glass an' is called the same[00:02:26]
He's never been kept waiting 'cause he pays the landlord's wage[00:02:30]
And the lights in the late night lock-in[00:02:36]
Have faded away when he gets in[00:02:39]
The girl from fifteen years ago[00:02:43]
Has packed and gone away[00:02:46]
The lights in the late night lock-in[00:02:49]
Have faded away when he gets in[00:02:52]
The girl from fifteen years ago[00:02:56]
Has packed and gone away[00:02:59]
