lyrics

Boo Radley
(Written by Stewart Cunningham)

Try and describe your situation,
in politeness and with prettiness
How you grew up alone wondering who you were
Wandering into nothingness, always lost, directionless
With only a song to still your fear
With beauty in your heart and mind
With music in your soul on fire

And hate written on your tongue and on your skin
Bruises on the inside that never go away
Scaring people with what you say
Yeah try and describe who you are
But make it fit neatly into a song
And make it rhyme and melody
Honour your mistakes as hidden intentions

Lets go out and get drunk she said,
I couldn’t believe my ears
And I didn’t want to hear it said
Cos I don’t think I can keep this up anymore
I don’t want to get whacked,
I just want my brain cells back
And the days are getting longer and longer
and this song is getting stronger

Please put me in a movie,
to kill a mockingbird by Harper lee would suit me
Please put me in a movie, We’ll make it rhyme with melody,
Don’t make me be Boo Radley

Please put me in that movie,
to kill a mockingbird by Harper lee would suit me
Please put me in that movie,
to kill a mockingbird by Harper lee would set me free
and you can be, you can be Boo Radley
No one wants to be Boo Radley
I Don’t want to be Boo Radley

"Every song on ’Silver & Black is a winner, each rich with colour and diversity. It stands as the Leadfinger magnum opus - and it should rightfully open new doors for the band."
