Marblehead Johnson Lyrics - The Bluetones

Tonight I'm wound tighter than a watchspring 

Tonight you owe my patience quite a debt 

Tonight we're not gonna solve anything 

I might say something that we both regret 

v 

And now the pressures on, the heat is rising 

The time has come to stop apologising 

'cos when the skies are clear 

The threat of rain is always here with you 

Tonight the geese are flying 

And everything you say is a call to arms 

Tonight there's something in the air 

Don't come too close and you'll come to no harm 

v 

And now the pressure's on the heat is rising 

The time has come to stop apologising 

With all thats gone before 

My motive's never felt so pure 

And now my heart's beset 

With 28 carot gold regrets 

And when the skies go clear 

The threat of rain is always here with you
