Hi Guys
I will be posting two sets of lyrics and Poems a week for you to follow
I have been working on this a long time and have posted some of the lyrics on the forum before
but I have went back to them and tried to improve them
Interested how you see them in an almost episodic content
Don't worry there are a good few new pieces included
I also challenge you to name the 'Concept' after all the pieces have been posted
there are 12 in total
Thank you and I hope to enjoy your opinions

Tattoo Shop
I have no six figure jobs
no sign of a university degree
I'm not so proud of who I am
Don't know I'm gonna be
Let's go down to the tattoo shop
talk about all our pretty little sins
artwork across our young skin
maybe remind us of who we were
when we grow up someday
Down the road, treating me like scum
I'd love a paying job but where is one
Apologies for being working class
knock on my council door for a chance
Let's go down to the tattoo shop
talk about all our pretty little sins
artwork across our young skin
maybe remind us of who we were
when we grow up someday
Hope and Fear adourns my arms
fighting away demons doing me harm
release the blind and banish the dark
but I don't wanna see the light mum
the futures too unclear
Let's go down to the tattoo shop
talk about all our pretty little sins
artwork across our young skin
maybe remind us of who we were
when we grow up someday

Infidel Romeo
Nobody likes mondays, the weeks staring at you
fridays a different matter, lets all unevolve for bit
six pints for a tenner, you can't miss a bargain
we are all winners until the illness kicks in
then you get hassle for not eating your dinner
Infidel Romeo
your nothing like
the story's we've been told
Infidel Romeo
Is it true
you preach rock and roll
Newspaper and milk, to cure a hangover
denim jacket on my back, can't get silk
but lover, there's always money to be made
that's a fact, guys like my friends and enemies
are much the same, chasing lives they can't have
Myself, I've got a girlfriend living down the road
I see her when such bus company's greed runs out
not that it matters, she doesn't really like me much
sometimes dream of dumping her and trying upgrade
but I look in the mirror, what the fuck am I thinking!
Infidel Romeo
your nothing like
the story's we've been told
Infidel Romeo
Is it true
you preach rock and roll
No we can't solve it through texts, nothing helps like
two fist stubborn lovers sharing a damp cigarette
Julie throws the butt out the window then smiles
I can't help but wonder what might have been
when she said 'I believe in you Romeo'
Infidel Romeo
your nothing like
the story's we've been told
Infidel Romeo
Is it true
you preach rock and roll
