When The Angels Lyrics - Prefab Sprout

When the angels take the angel voice away 

Some lower their eyes, some of us shout cheats 

Cheating on the deal, pulling off the sting 

Tuning up the harps, dishing out the wings 

If they can dance on, on the head of a pin 

Don't that tell you something about their skin 

Hard faced, little bastards 

When the angels take the angel voice away 

Jealously they see, the sometimes man you'd be 

Must get so blaze, knowing you'll never die 

Lounging on a cloud, polishing the sky 

The memories are blue, but borrowed for the day 

They sit around ignored, till someone goes away 

If they can dance on, on the head of a pin 

Don't that tell you something about their skin 

Hard faced little bastards 

When the angels take the angel voice away 

Jealously they see, the sometimes man you'd be 

The memories are blue but borrowed for the day 

They sit around ignored, till someone goes away 

For cheating on the deal, pulling off the sting 

Tuning up the harps, dishing out the wings 

If they can dance on, on the head of a pin 

Don't that tell you something about their skin 

Hard faced little bastards 

When the angels take the angel voice away 

Jealously they see, the sometimes man you'd be 

When the angels take the angel voice away 

Jealously they see, the sometimes man you'd be 

When the angels take the angel voice away 

Jealously they see, the sometimes man you'd be 

When the angels take the angel voice away 

Jealously they see, the sometimes man you'd be 

When the angels take the angel voice away 

Jealously they see, the sometimes man you'd be
