One Hundred Things Lyrics - Deacon Blue

Poorly 

You`re more than poorly Jimmy 

More than that 

Worse than that 

This is a case of photographs 

Smudged and dropped and laughed at 

Here`s some things that came in post 

Letters never sent but wrote 

Shelves of books not opened 

Browsed in and bored you 

Unlocked things that should have been fastened down 

To be burned 

To be burned Jimmy 

To be gone forever 

So you`re 

Down town raking bins 

Through carry outs and skins 

To find the hundred things that led you here 

So you`re 

Down town raking bins 

Through carry outs and skins 

To find the hundred things that led you here 

Long night walking hills 

Scratched and cut 

Bruised and hurt 

With all your tension and your guilt 

Stories of the berr and care and speed you spilled 

Pleased at your speaking 

Worried by the content 

About this love and this land and this firmament 

Forgotten how to dream 

Started just to scream 

Forgotten to return 

To return Jimmy 

To fight your way back 

So you`re 

Down town raking bins 

Through carry outs and skins 

To find the hundred things that led you here 

So you`re 

Down town raking bins 

Through carry outs and skins 

To find the hundred things that led you here 

Tired 

Well I`m tired too Jimmy 

More than that 

I`m angry at that 

Well now that I`m finished 

This small town world seems so much bigger 

It didn`t seem important then 

Between jobs and flags and parliaments 

But our small time world seems bigger 

And maybe more worth fighting for 

Maybe at the heart of things 

They`ll be clowns 

And we`ll be kings 

So you`re 

Down town raking bins 

Through carry outs and skins 

To find the hundred things that led you here 

So you`re 

Down town raking bins 

Through carry outs and skins 

To find the hundred things that led you here 

Down town raking bins 

Just to find the hundred things 

Down town raking bins 

Just to find the hundred things 

Down town raking bins 

Just to find the hundred things 

Down town raking bins 

Just to find the hundred things
