the boy wonders şarkı sözü

words and music by roddy frame
i brought you some francs from my travelling chest
you´ll spare me the thanks ´til you know i´m the best
so come hogmonay when love comes in slurs
resolutions i´ll make and you can label them ´hers´
we threw our hands up high we, nearly touched the sky,
we clicked our heels and spat and swore
we´d never let it die

chorus:
all those boy wonders
sold their medals when they saw this train
now this boy wonders
when he´ll feel the fall of honest rain
i came from high land where the hopefuls have to hesitate
now this boy wonders
why the words were never worth the wait

i´m waiting, waiting.
in pastel paper pink over grey
we wrap, wrap, wrap and chuck, chuck away
the poor excuse they peddle as their prose.

dry your tears, tie your tongue and you´re never sixteen
and i´ll give you a glimpse of the hard and the clean
and my travelling chest will be open to you
and boy will you learn that you haven´t a clue

i even asked my best friend but he could not explain
it hit me when i left him
i felt the rain and called it genius,
called it genius.

chorus repeat
