Yellow Matchday

Number Ten

Thursday, November 6th, 2003

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 I get up and leave the room
I don’t want to talk to you tonight
No need for a sonic boom
No main event will make everything alright

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 You don’t seem to understand
You always want to take me out some place
Yeah I won’t let things get out of hand
Yeah all I really want right now is space

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 We all need somewhere to escape to
That’s one thing that I thought you knew
We all need somewhere to get away
That for me is on a yellow matchday

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Distract myself with the beautiful game
All my troubles go up in a flame
Only thinking about that last kick
If we don’t win this, like a parrot I’ll be sick

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 It’s not that I don’t care
Being on my own isn’t a scare
We all need somewhere to get away
That for me is on a yellow matchday.
