lyrics

Bye Bye Mr Bassman

Bye Bye Mister Bassman
I wont cling but I will sing
Of that depth you brought
and how we'd ska it up
Those days are now long gone
When we played our blood sports
You bought your the City Blues
And me my Freight

And I wonder where now you have gone
Back to the Universe's light
But I won't forget our songs
you're my star, you're burning bright
you're burning bright, you're my star

You told me you were born
wor - king class
In a steel making town where your prospects were
mainly seen in terms of mum and dad
Dad was a proper cunt
giving constant silent fuel
You realised school was your only escape route

And I wonder where now you have gone
Back to the Universe's light
And I won't forget our songs
you're my star, you're burning bright
you're my star, you're burning bright
you're burning bright



Bye Bye Mister bassman
I wont cling but I will sing
Of that depth you brought
and how we'd ska it up

Those days are now long gone
When we played our blood sports
You bought your the city blues
And me my freight

And I wonder where now you have gone
Back to the Universe's light
But I won't forget our songs
you're my star, you're burning bright
you're my star, you're burning bright
burning bright
