The Courteeners
St. Jude
It may seem strange to discuss Christian symbolism in the pages of NME, but a quick rummage through the Bible is crucial to understanding what The Courteeners are getting at with the title of their debut album. So, if you could all turn to the New Testament and Luke 6:16, we shall begin. Saint Jude, one of Jesus’ 12 apostles, was known as The Miraculous Saint, the Patron Saint of “lost...

The Courteeners - St. Jude Lyrics
The Courteeners - Yesterday, Today & Probably Tomorrow/Acrylic Lyrics
I'm not going to sit here and lie and list all the many ways
About how I will supposedly love you till the end of days
Because I think that we both know in twenty-eight and a half years' time
That I won't be yours and you probably won't be mine

The Courteeners - Not Nineteen Forever Lyrics
She tried to peel me off the pavement
Tried to insinuate sometimes
I am in danger of going too far
Asked me would I like to go for tea and toast
The Courteeners - If It Wasn't for Me Lyrics
Everyones saying that your here for me,
But your here for them,
If wasn't for me, if it wasn't for me,
You wouldn't even know them.
The Courteeners - Fallowfield Hillbilly Lyrics
Is that all that matters anymore?
Who happened to like that band first?
And who likes them more?
The Courteeners - What Took You So Long? Lyrics
You've spent too much time sat in your bedroom
On your PC, are you sure that you couldn't
Have found the time?
Swallowed your pride and fitted to jealousy
The Courteeners - How Come Lyrics
How come you are always off your head
And yet you still end up in your bed
With some mint blonde I've never seen before
And you get away with kicking her face first out of your front door
The Courteeners - Kings Of The New Road Lyrics
I loved you, I still do,
I probably always will do.
I left home and then phoned to see if you like to dance.
The Courteeners - Aftershow Lyrics
The walk home from barbecue is very long when i'm walking with you
The sun is coming up, and it is coming to light
that me and you were never that tight
The Courteeners - No You Didn't, No You Don't Lyrics
So just because I use salty phrases and I go through stages
Where I neglect endeavor does it mean I'm not clever?
No I don't think so
The Courteeners - Please Don't Lyrics
four years and twenty two shades of blonde
is all that seperated us,
why couldn't we have carried on?
we could have got married,
The Courteeners - Cavorting Lyrics
Your club is full of over rated, dehydrated, goggled eyed girls,
And their trying to stare at me, but their eyes are rattling and theyâre struggling to see
And she canât stand still because of sixteen pills that
The Courteeners - Bide Your Time Lyrics
The temptation is all too great
To know it's gone and it's all too late
I tried and I tried and but I never applied
To any of the morals that I wish I had
