The Gloater Lyrics by GUM, Ambrose Kenny-Smith

Ill Times (Deluxe Edition)

2024

[Verse 1: Jay Watson]
If you hitch a ride
On a loner
Or maybe gauge your height
On my shoulder
Another way to fight
Getting older
Oooh-oooh
Don't even try
To phone her
Another danger sign
On the road ahead
A part of sacrifice
To the gloater
Oooh-oooh
[Chorus: Ambrose Kenny-Smith]
The squawking crow gets his ego stroked
Blows his own trumpet while they're blowing smoke
He always get what he wants, he's never heard the word no
Terrible things happening, leaving bad signs wherеver he goes
[Verse 2: Jay Watson]
'Causе if you must pursue
The gloater
There will be déjà vu
On the road ahead
Well, if you wanna lose
Getting older
Oooh-oooh
[Chorus: Ambrose Kenny-Smith]
The squawking crow gets his ego stroked
Blows his own trumpet while they're blowing smoke
He always gets what he wants, he's never heard the word no
One of these days, somehow, someway
Draw the short straw, pull the longbow
[Outro: Ambrose Kenny-Smith and Jay Watson]
It's all over for the gloater
It's all over for the gloater
It's all over for the gloater
It's all over for the gloater
It's all over for the gloater (It's all over now, gloater)
It's all over for the gloater (It's all over now, gloater)
It's all over for the gloater (It's all over now, gloater)
It's all over for the gloater (It's all over now, gloater)
Gloater (It's all over now, gloater)
Gloater (It's all over now, gloater)
Gloater (It's all over now, gloater)
Gloater
