Brickbat Lyrics by Billy Bragg

Brickbat Lyrics

    I ought to leave enough hot water
    For your morning bath, but i'd not thought
    I hate to hear you talk that way
    But i can't bring myself to say i'm sorry

    The past is always knocking incessant
    Trying to break through into the present
    We have to work to keep it out
    But i won't be the first to say it's over

    I used to want to plant bombs at the last night of the proms
    But now you'll find me with the baby, in the bathroom,
    With that big shell, listening for the sound of the sea

    I steal a kiss from you in the supermarket
    I walk you down the aisle, you fill my basket
    And through it all, the stick i take is worth it for the love we make

    I used to want to plant bombs at the last night of the proms
    But now you'll find me with the baby, in the bathroom,
    With that big shell, listening for the sound of the sea,
    The baby and me

    I stayed in bed, alone, uncertain
    Then i met you, you drew the curtain
    The sun came up, the trees began to sing
    The light shone in on everything.
    I love you.

    The sun came up, the trees began to sing
    The light shone in on everything.
    I love you.
