COLDPLAY brought me here :))

By the way, who is the female singer? Also great.

A real Coldplay feel to this, but better, in my view - none of the Coldplay self-consciousness. The Hopkins/Creosote partnership has the potential to be really big - if they want it to be, of course, which may not be the case. Diamond Mine is one of my favourite albums just now. Oh, and Creosote lives half a mile along the coast from where I lived as a boy ... all the best for him!

Lyrics by me ^^:

I’ve grown complacent

I cannot think

[Ｒ Ｉ Ｐ Ｐ Ｅ Ｒ͟]

I am the third swan the non-white one The not quite sun on the Water of Leith Ducking I am diving for political belief But I’m dragging up scum I am the worst from the slum I am You can have your cake But someone else will scoff I cannot live to ninety five I want to die whilst I am alive I rode shotgun with the roof down Amusement arcade dance How the Vauxhall bounced To Kinkell Braes, I I swore took aim, aye, I am a king of the world A king of the world shot down

[Ｒ Ｉ Ｐ Ｐ Ｅ Ｒ͟]

You hit the New Year sprinting gold No late December weight upon your shoulders Now you’re shot of me ] My balance the envy of a new-born foal My sea legs knocking in the shallows Now you’re shot of me And I rode shotgun with the roof down Amusement arcade dance How the Vauxhall bounced To Kinkell Braes, I I swore took aim, aye, I am a king of the world A king of the world shot down And I rode shotgun with the roof down Amusement arcade dance I am a king of the world shot down…
