Nancy tries to take the night


There's a time and a place and the place it is now
Take the smile off your face when you're dressed like a cow
When you're frolicking round, legs in the air
Smile on your face but it's covered in hair
Do you want it?
Do you want it?

You run through the streets like the whore that you are
And you hope pretty soon you'll be struck by the car
But the light of the day tries to keep you afloat
While there's pain in your stomach and pain in your throat
Do you want it?
Do you want it?

Mother would you take me, and on, and on
For I have nothing, no more baby, she's gone, and on

(3, 4)

I tried to take your word on what you said
I tried to take the word but the word was dead
I did not want it
And in the light of day it all seemed well
Or was it just a dream, she could not tell
With how she wanted it?

There's a time and a place and the place it is now
Take that smile off your face when you're dressed like a cow
When you're frolicking round with your legs in the air
Smile on your face but it's covered in hair
Do you want it? Oh
Do you want it? Oh

Just imagine a life as a baby and wife
What the times would look like when compared to the night
But the money's not there so you sit in despair
Curse at the sky with a cry, "It's not fair"
Do you want it? Oh now
Do you want it? Oh

The rapture of the autumn eve lead to a fate no-one believed
Taking to the table where she wrote, she held herself a vote
A vote between the good and bad, with all she'd seen and all she'd had
Nancy tried to take the night, but now she's gone removed from sight

And now oh, mother would you take me, and on, and on
For I have nothing but my baby, she's gone, and on

If I could take it back now
Would I take it back now?
If he could take it (yeah) back (mm) now
Would he take it all back now?

Nancy took the night and she's gone, and on

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Black Country, New Road is a British rock band formed in London in 2018. The group, consisting of Tyler Hyde (bass), Lewis Evans (saxophone), Georgia Ellery (violin), May Kershaw (keyboards), Charlie Wayne (drums) and Luke Mark (guitar), gained recognition in 2019 with the debut singles "Athens, France" and "Sunglasses". Their first album, *For the First Time*, released in 2021, received a nomination for the Mercury Prize and reached number four on the UK Albums Chart. The album was praised for its musical complexity, theatrical energy, and introspective lyrics that explore themes of loneliness, alienation, and the search for meaning in modernity. In 2022, the band released *Ants from Up There*, their second album, which entered the top 100 albums of all time on Rate Your Music's user-compiled charts. Four days before the release of the record, vocalist Isaac Wood left the group for mental health reasons.
