Brickbat Lyrics - Singles - Bragg Billy

I ought to leave enough hot water 

For your morning bath, but I'd not thought 

I hate to hear you talk that way 

But I can't bring myself to say I'm sorry 

The past is always knocking incessant 

Trying to break through into the present 

We have to work to keep it out 

But I won't be the first to shout it's over 

I used to want to plant bombs at the Last Night of the Proms 

But now you'll find me with the baby, in the bathroom, 

With that big shell, listening for the sound of the sea 

I steal a kiss from you in the supermarket 

I walk you down the aisle, you fill my basket 

And through it all, the stick I take 

Is worth it for the love we make 

I used to want to plant bombs at the Last Night of the Proms 

But now you'll find me with the baby, in the bathroom, 

With that big shell, listening for the sound of the sea 

The baby and me 

I stayed in bed, alone, uncertain, 

Then I met you, you drew the curtains, 

And sun came up, the trees began to sing 

And light shone in off everything. I love you. 

And sun came up, the trees began to sing 

And light shone in off everything. I love you.
