lyrics

BARNES COMMON

Let's go down to Barnes Common Rebecca.
In the south of London where the sunlight's rare.
It will be no pilgrimmage, no vacation.
But there is something I want to show you there.

No one will console you.
No one will console you.
No one will console you.
No one will control you or hold you

As you sail through life with razor honey lust and cavalier tongue that slaps the tips of your teeth

let's go down. Let's go down.

Let's go down to Barnes Common Rebecca
There is something I want to show you there.
The sentimental leave pictures and missives
and morbidly hang useless photos with care.

But that's not what I want you to see Rebecca.
Not a shrine, road mark, or a footnote in life.
What I want you to see will require no eyes
just you driving me you driving me driving me driving me driving me my beautiful X.

No one will console you.
No one will console you.
No one will console you.
No one will control you or hold you

As you launch our car over london's soil into that motherfucking scrawny tree.

let's go down. Let's go down.

It's a fast road before the blind rise rebecca
and it's easy to see how tempting faster becomes;
there is no need for idle chit chat or small talk.
No need for your sweet sweat on my tongue.

You'll scream as I push down your right leg.
Like when I'm on top and hold your arms to the ground.
We'll drive until we hit Queen's Ride, Rebecca.
and we'll crash there while there's no one around.

Crawl out and stand at the side of the road where the british go by on the wrong side and never know
how we enter this world and we leave it alone and I know that you know it already and you don't really care.

Let's go down. Let's go down. Let's go down. Let's go down.
Let's go down. Let's go down. Let's go down. Let's go down.

Let's go down to Barnes Common.
