Final Spark Lyrics - Beautiful South

Well the dice that i roll never seems to land on six 

And that 48 card pack is short of some of my old tricks 

The horse i bet on all those years ago 

Is probably still running round the track 

Like the marriage that i gambled on 

I'm due my money back, i'm due my money back 

We could've learned, we could've burned from the firework love ignites 

But that sparkler of romance proved impossible to light 

If your country code or your green cross code 

It can leave a lasting mark 

History books have showed follow safety code 

And stamp out your final spark

Well the husband that i married once 

I should've kept him in a cage 

Kept him sitting waiting there 

To show the tortoise middle-age 

Cause you never back an animal that struggles on two legs 

I'd rather back a stray with three than one that sits up and just begs 

Than one that sits up and just begs 

We could've learned, we could've burned from the firework love ignites 

But that sparkler of romance proved impossible to light 

If your country code or your green cross code 

It can leave a lasting mark 

History books have showed follow safety code 

And stamp out your final spark 

We could've learned, we could've burned from the firework love ignites 

But that sparkler of romance proved impossible to light 

If your country code or your green cross code 

It can leave a lasting mark 

History books have showed follow safety code 

And stamp out your final spark

Milk will curdle, cheese go off, expensive wine mature 

Kids grow up, parents down, husbands turn to tragic bore 

Receipts and life insurance all very well, but don't fully cover hate 

So you can't return this idiot when he's past his sell-by date 

Milk will curdle, cheese go off, expensive wine mature 

Kids grow up, parents down, husbands turn to tragic bore 

Receipts and life insurance all very well, but don't fully cover hate 

So you can't return this idiot when he's past his sell-by date
