The Jazz Butcher Conspiracy – Still And All lyrics

I'm living in a film
Every day I leave the cameras rolling
And before I get the chance
To light a cigarette
The lights come on
Action! - gimme tears
And if I were going to die
You'd be the girl I'd want to die for
Yeah I know that that's not right
But the hanging-on takes
All the strength I have

Did you think you were
Doing me a favour girl
It's the strangest kind of failure girl
Hate the guide, drop the pilot
Kill the messenger as well

Sat outside the erzatz English bar
I knew enough to wish upon a star
I didn't figure on there
Being no stars where you are
Hadn't realized it had gone that far
And if I were going to die
I know the railway bridge
I'd jump from
It's covered in lost causes anyway
I guess we'll never know who wrote them

Did you think you were
Doing me a favour girl
It's the strangest kind of failure girl
Hate the guide, drop the pilot,
Drown the orchestra as well
Did you think you were
Doing me a favour girl
It's the strangest kind of failure girl
Hate the guide, love the placement
The Replacements even? No.
I've got a problem with that
I've got the same problem with Everything these days
The same problem with
Everything these days
Still and all...
Still and all...
Still and all
