The Cribs

Lyrics On a hotel wall The Cribs

 981

On a hotel wall


Feel like baby Berthe half the time
Know that you will do your worst and I'll do mine
Know that you say, that things that happened in a former life
I hold onto, tight
And you're not the body type
Alright you win...

Don't be surprised
Cos he was so in love

Performance art with broken necks
His imagination killed his interest in sex
It's no great big waste
Pretense preserved for a well-read guy
Who's chosen the day
You know he's not the type to hang on and wait

Don't be surprised
Cos he was so in love

Dear God, I'm sure
Things I wish I'd have known before
Wouldn't help either way this time
As she's all enthralled
While they paint her face on a hotel wall
Didn't wait either way this time

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics ON A HOTEL WALL of THE CRIBS is also present in the album Payola (2013)

Biografia

The Cribs are an English indie rock band from Wakefield, West Yorkshire. The group consists of twins Gary and Ryan Jarman and their younger brother Ross Jarman. In 2008, Johnny Marr, former guitarist of The Smiths and Modest Mouse, joined the band and became a formal member. Active on the concert circuit since 2002, they were initially associated by the British music press with other UK bands of the time, particularly The Libertines, as a response to the popularity of American indie rock bands. In 2008, Q magazine described them as "The biggest cult band in the UK". Some representative tracks include "Hey Scenesters", "Men's Needs", "The Golden Age" and "Mirror Kiss".
