My name is Ray High
This is my last album
[Female voice:]
Don't you ever ring me up drunk again Ray
Do you hear me!!
You spray like a tomcat
Piss like a stray dog
Swear like a sailor
Speaking in gang tongues
Kicking in chorus
Stabbing to order
Slashing like a blind man
Lost like a soldier
Swear like a sailor
Blurred like a movie
Grey under streetlights
Grey in the sunshine
Black on the tube line
Red on the touchline
Moving like a fever
Spreading like an oil slick
Thicker than a house brick
I'm an English boy
I was brought up right
You can hold me down
And I would bite
I knew no fear
I served with joy
I'm proud to be here
An English boy
You spray like a tomcat
Piss like a stray dog
Swear like a sailor
Speaking in gang tongues
Kicking in chorus
Stabbing to order
Slashing like a blind man
Lost like a soldier
I'm an English boy
Precisely made
Pin me down
I am not afraid
I show no fear
I served with joy
I'm proud to be here
I'm an English boy
Blurred like a movie
Grey under streetlights
Grey in the sunshine
Black on the tube line
White on the touchline
Moving like a fever
Spreading like an oil slick
Thicker than a house brick
I'm an English boy
I was brought up right
Come on and raise your dress
Then I would bite
My voice is clear
I Got perfect poise
Good to be down here
With all the English boys
Let me tell you the truth and now I can kindly say what I want to say,
And it's so even hearted at this time of my life,
But I know you don't now how I feel right now
But I can see into the history, in the present, past, forever
In one big fucking lie in a bulls eye
Slow like a prejudice
Broken like hatred
Kicking at a dead man
Cut pieces to pieces
Marking your territory
Freezing the future
Stopping the stopwatch
I am despairing
I'm an English boy
I was brought up right
Hold me down
And I will bite
I know no fear
I served with joy
I'm proud to be here
An English boy
An English boy
An English boy
[Fade]
Oh very, You know Mark I'm telling you
It's a existential horror
What a life
Early morning dreams come true
I know that now I'm here with you
You here by my side
I'm siding with you
[Female voice:]
If you can't lean on me, who can you lean on?
If you can't lean on me, who can you lean on?
If you can't lean on me, who can you lean on?
That's a good show
Slip kid slipped into his thariant suit
Give up on your phony freedom now
Slip kid slip into your grid life suit
The grid seat cover can slow things down
Who am I, where am I, who are you and you
Who am I, where am I, who are you and you
Who am I, where am I, who are you and you
Who am I, where am I, who are you and you
Hey little slip kid slip into your suit
Give up on your phony freedom now
Slip kid slip into your grid life suit
The grid seat cover can shut things down
Slip kid slipped into his thariant suit
Give up on your phony freedom now
Slip kid slip into your grid life suit
The grid seat cover can slow things down
