Arch Angel

Somedays, I wish the world away

I want to wash away the subtleties

And burn away the Christmas Tree,

Best friends (like Michael)

Sometimes steal the gifts they give

He used to chase me round from London town

Christmas Day, New York, Paris, LA

Someday

He's an angel with a dirty face

Sneaks away to smoke a girt (cigarette)

What a break from a brutal life

Stole everything but genius

What's he like? Is he real? Hold on.

I don't think I want to know the answers

Often think with a drink in my hand

That you knew your words would be appreciated someway (arch angel)

Somedays, I wish the world away

I want to wash away the subtleties

And burn away the Christmas Tree,

Best friends (like Michael)

Sometimes steal the gifts they give

He used to chase me round from London town

Christmas Day, New York, Paris, LA

Someday

Christmas day we were the best of friends

Remember we fucked up the gravy (lumpy)?

Hadn't seen such a smile on your face

Since we harmonized a little Bing Crosby

10 days later your girl says yes

I can't live without you, you're my man (daddy)

But the Christmas song just left your head

And you flew away with a broken wing, your way (arch angel)

Somedays, I wish the world away

I want to wash away the subtleties

And burn away the Christmas Tree,

Best friends (like Michael)

Sometimes steal the gifts they give

He used to chase me round from London town

Christmas Day, New York, Paris, LA

Disarray, you just disappeared

Now I find out you're a super hero reborn

All your life was to be special, and adored

Children need you as you are

Fighting evil with your super sonic sword.

Somedays, I wish the world away

I want to wash away the subtleties

And burn away the Christmas Tree,

Best friends (like Michael)

Sometimes steal the gifts they give

He used to chase me round from London town

Christmas Day, New York, Paris, LA

Someday
