Coming Second Lyrics by Elbow

Coming Second Lyrics

    Found a hole and slipped on through
    Kissed the stone and learnt the lines
    Jumped the cue all the time forgetting you

    Best dishevelled lover 3yrs running
    Coming second to
    A picket fence white 9-5 whos
    Just alive

    Beyond repair, there is nothing to say
    Save some fading regrets
    Yet I can't be without this
    I want you to be around.

    Spit-shone lies, juggled debts
    Planted flags and made regrets.
    Muddled through all the time
    Forgetting you

    Cut your teeth and breezed on to
    another brothers fickle ways
    So why amazed when it don't
    Come/turn out your way
