C
It seems like
Em
G
certain people need to slow down
C
Sitting so now,
B
but they don't know how
Em
They're running loads of pounds,
but I'm in no doubt
G
When the candle blows,
C
Cm

fans it will get blown out

It seems like certain people
need to slow down

Em
Can you really see sinners
G
getting down to some big
Cm
cheese business?
B
Every month holding
more than three figures
Em
I've seen that scene
G
and that scene seems vicious
Cm
Keen -witted,
B
mean spirits fiending for riches
Em
Me, I couldn't deal with it
G
C
I'd sooner be seen swimming
in deep rivers
B
Wearing concrete slippers
Em
G
It's wrong that I should feel privileged
C
When given a fleeting glimpse
B
of free living once my week's finished
Em
G
Maybe I'm one of those weak quitters,
C
Cm
but I can't work all day
B
And only rest for 15 minutes,
Em
eating TV dinners
G
C
Steady trying to keep diligent,
Cm
B
thinking of my annual beach visit
Em
So ask me what I'm doing instead,
G
C
B
just scooping a bit of bread and butter
While pursuing interests,
Em
and you might think
G
I'm stupid as a foolish inbred
C
Cm
Used to sitting on a stoop
B
with a group of piss heads
Em
But it's rare that my mood is intense
G
Cause I created a re
Cm
laxing ambience
B
without using incense
Em
So accuse me while using a
G
protruding index
C
Cause it's true that I'm a loser
B
with this future in shreds
Em
But I produce a sick text
G
when I use a big pen
C
Something in me ticks
B
like a superhuman sixth sense
Em
Observing life through a thick lens
G
Watching steadily,
C
using time to rest
B
thus preserving my longevity
Em
G
It like certain people need to slow down
C
Sit in zone now but they don't
B
know how
Em
They're burning loads of pounds,
but I'm in no doubt
G
C
Burn the candle, woe fans,
Cm
it will get blown out
B
Em
It seems like certain people
G
need to slow down
C
Sitting so now,
B
but they don't know how
Em
They're burning loads of pounds,
but I'm in no doubt

C
Burn the candle, woe fans,

B
Em
It's Tuesday night, man,
G
I'm craving spliff and hot food
C
B
But not more than pound a drink
and shit pop tunes
Em
B
A lot lost to the work drink,
work drink
C
Em
B
Puzzle punters glugging jugs
to make the words fit
Em
A double something
G
always tugging at the purse strings
C
B
And now they're sloppy round the edges
like a first kiss
Em
I'm not the worst,
G
it's just a casual pastime
Cm
Nothing serious,
B
just here to drink the bar dry
Em
Chuckle at our troubles
G
as they shrink into the dark night
C
Cm
Follow my reflection
B
as it's sinking with my last pint
Em
We're on the brink of being
G
victims of the far right
C
But can't resist because
B
we're twisted by this farce life
Em
G
I drifted in from last night,
Cm
thinking how it's a little bit odd
B
that we see time as a commodity
Em
When if a man was lost at sea
G
without a clock to read
C
Imprisoned by a prophecy,
B
al lowing his return
Em
upon accomplishment of odyssey
G
He could quite possibly,
C
arrive to find a hand
B
that only moved from one to three
Em
Think about it logically,
G
or don't if you're too busy
C
But choose quickly,
B
Em
cause pretty soon they'll be selling special
G
C
seconds of your life online for two fifty
B
So who's with me?
Em
Nah, I thought not
G
Cause then you'd have to slow down
Cm
And if I'm really honest with you,
B
then I couldn't go now
Em
Just leave with no sound,
G
like this life was worth nothing
C
Cm
All possessions thrown down,
B
possessions thrown down
Em
Possessions thrown down,
G
possessions thrown down
C
Cm
B
Possessions thrown down, down, down, down,
