In Liverpool we'll barn dance!
In Liverpool we'll barn dance!
Line dance in Nelson Street
Through the Arch and Black-E
In 筲箕灣 we'll barn dance!
In 筲箕灣 we'll barn dance!
I'll eat my fill, I'll drink my fill
Let's go and party!
Let's Dance!
In 天后 we will barn dance
In 天后 we will barn dance
The sweat, the smell and the treats
Let's drink tea in the streets
In 惠州 we will barn dance!
In 惠州 we will barn dance!
It's bloody cold but I don't care
Let's eat like kings and dance like bears
Let's Dance!
No don't stop!
Don't shut the docks!
Now Yip David has left
And The Dragons of the Pool bereft
With takeaways and casinos
And Wong Bat Bat
And housing rows
And scowser talk
我地講得好
Come on let's dance
Come on let's go!
One by one
One by one
As we fade into the sun
And maybe we will be the last ones
One by one
One by one
As we fade into the sun
And maybe we will be the last ones

I'll float like a butterfly and sting like a bee
With la la la la la la lightning fists
I'll knock you to the bottom of cinemas lists
And la la la la la laugh in your face
But I throw and miss I'll kiss your fist
I'll kiss the floor
But I throw and miss I'll kiss your fist
I'll kiss the floor
But I throw and miss
At the count I leave
Now over to Steve
A culture void and misogyny role
With T T T T T T Tax loopholes
Something Awful
And Ain't it cool
I'll kn kn kn kn knock you till you're black and blue
But I throw and miss I'll kiss your fist
I'll kiss the floor
But I throw and miss I'll kiss your fist
I'll kiss the floor
But I throw and miss
Although I fought with honour
Just wait for Donna
Petition me! Critique me!
I can't take it any more!
Petition me! Critique me!
I can't take it any more!
La La La
La La La
Rushing headlong and you think you're so strong
I'll P P P P P P Prove you wrong
Eye so twisted fall to the floor
And never never never never film no more
But I throw and miss I'll kiss your fist
I'll kiss the floor And I'm dismissed
But I throw and miss I'll kiss your fist
I'll kiss the floor And I'm dismissed
But I throw and miss
And I am the last
With conscience intact
Petition me! Critique me!
I can't take it any more!
Petition me! Critique me!
I can't take it any more!

Let's Fail Together

Have you ever tried so hard?
No I've not
Will you ever act the part?
No I won't
How can you say you can't, but didn't try to start?
Have you ever learnt the art?
No I've not
Show a bit of disregard?
No I won't
To ignore the sneers and the thoughts of your peers.
We can fail gloriously
Write our own history
We can fail gloriously
Don't be sad
Don't worry
You won't end up with nothing
Let's fail together
We'll laugh at the sneers
And thoughts of our peers
Let's fail together
We'll rub in their faces
Our falls from grace
Let's fail together
We’ll fail together you and I
La la la la la la la
Don't give up
But what if it hurts?
But what if they laugh?
But what if I fail?
So what if you fail?
Let's fail together
We'll laugh at the sneers
And thoughts of our peers
Let's fail together
We'll rub in their faces
Our falls from grace
Let's fail together
We’ll fail together you and I
Hold my hand tightly
Ever so tightly
We’ll ride the wild wind
Hold my hand tightly
Ever so tightly
We’ll fly La la la la la la
Spread your wings and crash down from the sky
Let's fail together
We'll laugh at the sneers
And thoughts of our peers
Let's fail together
Blow our own trumpets
Yes! It was worth it!
Let's fail together
We'll rub in their faces
Our falls from grace
Let's fail together
We’ll fail together you and I
