The Band Played The Pogues Lyrics by ​looms.

Saints Are Hard To Live With

2023

[Intro]
[Man] The symbols mean different things, like hearts, diamonds, clubs and spades the bottom of the trousers here. Playing cards
Life is a gamble. Yeah?
[Woman] Oh is that right?
[Man] The wheel is a circle of life with you in the middle, with your family and friends supporting you. The anchors for hope, hearts are for charity and crosses for faith. So you got faith, hope and charity
[Woman] Oh, lovely
[Man] So that's what the symbols mean
[Woman] So what's the diamonds for?
[Man] I'm just a diamond geezer mate
[Verse]
Tryna find us like we’re hidden. Squinting
Lifting up under the rugs
The cupboards were swinging in thе kitchen
I whispered so quiеt you couldn’t have listened
I missed this
Strange the pain stain the trinket tingeing in the kiss
It glistened as if illicit
I gripped it
Wished for wishes
That night at dinner they served spring chicken
Her cheeks ring in the distance I phoned
I Hated myself cos I’m the only one who knows
I know no different I showed her home
Sticking to my suit like ringlets
Rode on my own like my feet meeting the stirrups
It’s Christmas. The band played The Pogues
The stand swayed
I could’ve been cracking the window if I groaned
Frenetic horses in the snow reposed
I slowed and thought about the thaw before I froze
I go alone but can’t leave her
Sometimes it’s like she keeps us until I see her
A trunk of sunlight sat like a staff on the heater reader
I freeze up
