The Strays Lyrics - Madness - The Sleeping

Hubcaps and ashtrays 

I was born but I wasn't raised 

The big wheel the black space 

Tried my best but wasn't praised 

Hell is so close to Heaven 

Hell is so close to Heaven 

Hold on don't look back 

You know we're better were better than that 

Lost and thrown away 

You know we're better were better than that 

We are the strays (whoah) 

We are the strays

Train tracks to the stage 

Play that role, the one you made 

Long nights and the worst days 

Lived it all, but I didn't break 

Hell is so close to Heaven 

Hell is so close to Heaven 

Hold on don't look back 

You know we're better were better than that 

Lost and thrown away 

You know we're better were better than that 

We are the strays ( whoah ) 

We are the strays 

My whole life they said I'd be nothing 

Well I'm something 

And I would rather be the stray 

Than be nothing to no one at all 

*Whistling*

Hubcaps and ashtrays 

I was born but wasn't raised 

Hold on don't look back 

You know we're better we're better than that 

Lost and thrown away 

You know we're better we're better than that 

Cause we are the strays (whoah) 

We are the strays
