Policeman & Pirates Lyrics - Ocean Colour Scene

The house caught on fire in the winter 

The bosses lay slain 

And each of the workers decided to ten-fold their pay 

And they saw in the mirror the sun had been shot down in flames 

And nobody minded the hole in the sky or the rain 

 

But it doesn't really matter when the judgments are said 

'cause we all take our chances to find out romance is in some others bed 

And you might burn your fingers hock your best rings for those 

Who'd have you standing naked then publicly auction the use of a hose 

 

All the children were laughing their faces in half at the pain 

Of the girl who loved talking to walls and jumping at trains 

And the words that ring true in the playground of fools will remain 

And nobody minded the hole in the sky or the rain 

 

But it doesn't really matter when the rights have been read 

'Cause we all take our chances to glance at the wife in the opposite bed 

And I bet Nero and Pilate could easily explain 

How policemen and pirates get stoned in glass houses just finding their way 

 

The house caught on fire in the winter 

The bosses lay slain 

And each of the workers decided to ten-fold their pay 

And they saw in the mirror the sun had been shot down in flames 

And nobody minded the hole in the sky or the rain 

 

But it doesn't really matter when the judgments are said 

'cause we all take our chances to find out romance is in some others bed 

And you might burn your fingers hock your best rings for those 

Who'd have you standing naked then publicly auction the use of a hose 

 

And it doesn't really matter when the rights have been read 

'Cause we all take our chances to glance at the wife in the opposite bed 

And I bet Nero and Pilate could easily explain 

How policemen and pirates get stoned in glass houses just finding their way 

Yeah policemen and pirates get stoned in glass houses just finding their way 

Yeah policemen and pirates get stoned in glass houses just finding their way
