Peter Doherty - Time For Heroes lyrics

Did you see the stylish kids in the riot? Shovelled up like muck and set the night on fire Wombles bleed, truncheons and shields, you know I cherish you my love But there's a rumour spread nasty disease around town You caught round the houses with your trousers down A headrush in the bush You know I cherish you my love Oh how I cherish you my love Tell me what can you want now you've got it all The whole scene is obscene Time will strip it away A year and a day And Bill Bones Bill Bones knows what I mean He knows it's eating, it's chewing me up It's not right for young lungs to be coughing up blood And it's all It's all in my hands And its all up the walls Well the stale chips are up and they hope stakes are down It's all these ignorant faces that bring this town down And I sighed and sunken with pride Well I pa**ed myself down on my knees Yes I pa**ed myself down on my knees Now tell me what can you want now you've got it all The whole scene is obscene Time will strip it away A year and a day And Bill Bones Bill Bones knows what I mean He knows theres fewer more distressing sights than that Of an Englishman in a baseball cap And we'll die in the cla** we were born But that's a cla** of our own my love A cla** of our own my love Did you see the stylish kids in the riot Shovelled up like muck Set the night on fire Wombles bleed truncheons and shields You know I cherish you my love Yeah I cherish you my love
