    Great lyric, great band.

    This changes all the time but right now I love singing:

    ‘As I wait to collect my mental baggage. Imported straight from the West Riding’.

    Moral sneaks in the White House
    Computer geeks in the school house
    Drug freaks in the crack house
    We don't have that stuff here
    We have a tiny little force
    Yeah, but we need them of course
    For the kittens in the trees
    And at night we are on our knees

    With your feet on the air and your head on the ground
    Try this trick and spin it, yeah
    Your head will collapse
    But there's nothing in it
    And you'll ask yourself

    Where is my mind?
    Where is my mind?
    Where is my mind?

    Way out in the water
    See it swimmin'

    Disengaged I see your face
    An adrenaline rush I can't replace
    Hands around your neck, your senses numb
    Staring into your eyes
    When the stillness comes.

    I've seen a million numbered doors on the horizon
    Now which is the future you choosin' before you gone dying?
    I'll tell you 'bout a secret I've been undermining
    Every little lie in this world come from dividing
    Say you're my lover, say you're my homie
    Tilt my chin back, slit my throat, take a bath in my blood, get to know me
    All out of my secrets
    All my enemies are turning into my teachers
    Because, lights blinding, no way dividing what's yours or mine when everything's shining
    You darkness is shining, my darkness is shining
    Have faith in ourselves
    Truth

    If I hadn’t seen such riches, I could live with being poor.

    This kind of sums up this season so far…

    Then my telephone shakes into life and I see your name
    And the wheat fields explode into gold either side of the train

    Elbow (Kindling) - Great song full of evocative lyrics from a superb album.

    From two verses in the same song...

    You can arm yourself, alarm yourself
    But there's nowhere you can run
    'cause a man with a briefcase
    Can steal more money
    Than any man with a gun

    It's a nation of noses pressed up against the glass
    They've seen it on the tv
    And they want it pretty fast
    You spend your whole life
    Just pilin' it up there
    You got stack and stacks and stacks
    Then, gabriel comes and taps you on the shoulder
    But you don't see no hearses with luggage racks

    All that rugby puts hairs on your chest
    What chance have you got against a tie and a crest?

    What you see is what you get
    You've made your bed, you better lie in it
    You choose your leaders and place your trust
    As their lies wash you down and their promises rust
    You'll see kidney machines replaced by rockets and guns
    And the public wants what the public gets
    But I don't get what this society wants
