Mick Jones ? Content with backing up Damon Albarn . Even Lydon ’s decided to revive his role as the fairy godmother of panto punk for the 1,056th time. True, there are some ( MacGowan ,...

Paul Weller - Wake Up The Nation Lyrics
Paul Weller - Wake Up the Nation Lyrics
Fish from the paper, fresh from the sea
The cracks in the pavement, the city in siege
I don't know where to replace it or who to believe
Can't find on the pavement or lay on his knees
Paul Weller - No Tears to Cry Lyrics
If you don't want to see me fall
Turn your face to the wall
There's no face left to hide
There's no tears to cry
Paul Weller - Fast Car/ Slow Traffic Lyrics
Slow traffic, slow traffic
Slow traffic, slow traffic
Slow traffic, slow traffic
Slow traffic, slow traffic
Paul Weller - Andromeda Lyrics
Tiny, tiny shades of light
Came dancing gently through my window
As I waved goodbye
To my other life
Paul Weller - In Amsterdam Lyrics
Meet me in Amsterdam
Outside the hotel 'Americans'
Don't be late
Paul Weller - She Speaks Lyrics
Ebb and flow, weak and strong
Ebb and flow, weak and strong
Ebb and flow, weak and strong
Ebb and flow, weak and strong
Paul Weller - Find the Torch, Burn the Plans Lyrics
Dream the dream if you can't
Find your way though the sand
Sing it like you already own it
Paul Weller - Aim High Lyrics
Aim high, hum along, lady
Too shy, bite my tongue and maybe
Unfair if you ever leave me
Need you like water needs a flower
Paul Weller - Trees Lyrics
Well, once I was a lover
With beautiful long brown hair
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Paul Weller - Grasp & Still Connect Lyrics
I'm around, did you just not want me?
Hope the time will never come
I'm not out to steal your money
Wanna spend my time with you
Paul Weller - 7 & 3 Is The Striker's Name Lyrics
Little prick, you're crossing every line
The winds of change and the sands of time
7 & 3 is the striker's name
Washing his hands as he walks away
Paul Weller - Pieces of a Dream Lyrics
Like pieces of a dream
All shattered on a screen
Reflected in the shade
(Reflected in the shade)
