Courteeners - The 17th lyrics

When you come home the neighbours
Look at you funny thank someone, I dunno
Maybe God that you're not new money
So, it's up the stairs and
Lock the world away
And then it's phone off for
The rest of the day

The afternoon is peppered with regret
And all the things that
You're trying to forget
Well just know that you're not on your own
No, you're not on your own

Yellow Lambretta is knocked on it's side
It's begging you to steal it
And go for a ride just let me know and I'll
Meet you in the 17th
And you can bore me again with
How much you love Halloween
How much you love Halloween



Your afternoons are peppered with regret
And all the things that you wanna forget
Well just know that you're not on your own
No, you're not on your own

If you've risen just the second
That the sun goes down
You wash away your sins and feel
The pull of the town
Know that you're not on your own
No, you're not on your own

Everyone can hear you but nobody's listening
We've got another wedding
And another christening
We have to go to before we get to the summer
Might have to back door it
And do another runner
Like someone I used to know but please
Don't go there

Because we're having such a good time
Having such a good time
We're having such a good time
Having such a good time

The Irish bar is kicking out
For the first time
It seems nobody is playing
Shanghai like last night
So let's find that place with
The pink neon sign
The one that points to you and says
'do you wanna be mine?'

Everyone can hear you but nobody's listening
I wanna be someone but
Haven't got the discipline
A perfect picture for everyone to see
Never get emotional get another degree
Like someone I used to know but please
Don't go there

Cause we're having such a good time
Having such a good time
We're having such a good time
Having such a good time
