The Bluetones
"Marblehead Johnson"


Tonight I'm wound tighter than a watch spring.
Tonight you owe my patience quite a debt.
Tonight we're not gonna solve anything.
I might say something that we both regret.

And now the pressure's on, the heat is rising.
The time has come to stop apologising.
'Cause when the skies go clear, the threat of rain is always here with you.

Tonight the geese are flying.
And everything you say is a call to arms.
Tonight there's something in the air.
Don't come too close and you'll come to no harm.

And now the pressure's on, the heat is rising.
The time has come to stop apologising.
'Cause when the skies go clear, the threat of rain is always here with you.
With you.
With you.
With you.

And now the pressure's on, the heat is rising.
The time has come to stop apologising.
With all that's gone before, my motive's never felt so pure.
And now my heart's beset with eighteen carot gold regrets.
'Cause when the skies go clear, the threat of rain is always here with you.
