Hot Patootie
Run Manchester schools
Spineless swines
Cemented minds
Sir leads the troops
Jealous of youth
Same old suit since 1962
He does the military two-step
Down the nape of my neck
I wanna go home
I don't wanna stay
Give up education
As a bad mistake
Mid-week on the playing fields
Sir thwacks you on the knees
Knees you in the groin
Elbow in the face
Bruises bigger than dinner plates
I wanna go home
I don't wanna stay
Da-da-da ...
Bell
Shine
I can see it in your eyes
What I know in my heart is true
That our love it has faded like the summer run through
So we walk doen the shore line one last time together
Feel the wind blow our wandering hearts like a feather
But who knows who's waiting in the wings of time
Dry your eyes
We're gonna go where we can shine
Don't be hiding in sorrow or clinging to the past
With your beauty so precious and the seasons so fast
No matter how cold the horizon appears or how far the first night when I held you near
You've gotta rise from these ashes like a bird of flame
Take my hand
We're gonna go where we can shine
For all that we struggle for all we pretend
It don't come down to nothing except love in the end
And ours is a road that is strewn with goodbyes
But as it unfolds as it all unwinds
Remember your soul is the one thing you just can't compromise
Step out of the shadows
You gotta go where we can shine
Oh we're gonna go where we can shine
Shine
