It fucks my head
to be brave enough to say it
but I musn’t love you anymore
I have to walk out your fine new door
and you can chuck my chair out behind
but even though you musn’t love me anymore
you will always be on my mind
there’s too many people
only us two share
for me to ever want to be unkind

All the long gone nights of alcohol
with lovely people talking bull
and laughing getting up to mischief
I want to write them all down
I want them all remembered forever
I musn’t love you anymore
you must not love me
but no need to leave our heroes at the door
This isn’t a song about you
or me
It’s about Tomtom Sailor Paul Absolutely Russell
Seanie
all those beautiful fuckers we will never see
I mustn’t love you anymore
but my mum my dad
Mick Flynn
all them we drank with
I still love them
I hope you do too

No need to leave our stories at the door
Chlamydia
The Gonorrhea Row, the beany cap
The little people we looked after
Georgia Jake our Cassie day
I don’t believe the past is fake
I walk through it every day
and love that I knew
and the people that I drank with
instead of doing ambitious things I had to do
I mustn’t love you anymore
you must not love me
but if I could turn time back
I’d go back to the S & G
and drink at the bar with Chrissie
do the crossword with Martin and Mike Nashe
God, I’d even have a glass of wine with Mike Bird.
Where’s Annie when you need her?
Bless you all
