The Cribs - Our Bovine Public lyrics

rate me

D'ya think I'd have to choose

D'ya think I'd wear brown shoes

D'ya think that I'd ever have to read about this in the news

You gonna have a go

Well I don't want to know

I just thought that I should try and say hello to those who'd

Never exist without being generic

You have to impress our bovine public

You'd never exist if you wasn't generic

You have to impress our bovine public

I'll never forget how all this begun

and I will never regret a thing I have done but

You would never exist without us

So maybe I do not have the time fair weather friends of mine

A year's a long time be doing nothing with your life

I heard you felt alert

Well I'm hoping that it hurt

Cos you played too much time in groundwork

To be ground in to the dirt by those who'd

Never exist without being generic

You'll have to impress our bovine public

You'd never exist if you wasn't generic

You'll have to impress our bovine public

I'll never forget how all this begun

and I will never regret a thing I have done

But you would never exist without us

So maybe I do

Well you say nothing

So you'll always mean nothing to me

And if what you say means nothing

Then what you say will always mean nothing to me

D'ya think I have the time fair weather friends of mine

A year's a long time be doing nothing with your life

I heard you felt alert

Well I'm hoping that it hurt

Cos you played too much silent grammar

To be ground into the dirt by those

Who'd never exist without being generic

You have to impress our bovine public

You'd never exist if you wasn't generic

You'll have to impress our bovine public

I'll never forget how all this begun

and I will never regret the one thing I've done

But you would never exist without us

So maybe I do
