Grey Lantern Lyrics by Mansun

Taxlo$$

1997

Look, frankly you're a star tonight
Standing under grey light when I left you
You're watching from afar tonight
You've just become a sight for sore eyes now, yeah

Oh, you've come off the juice
You're sick of all this aural abuse, yeah

Hold the lantern, behold the lantern

Look, frankly you're a freak tonight
You'd stand under my light if I let you
You're looking quite aloof tonight
I'm feeling out of breath since I left you, oh yeah

Oh, freezing to touch you, stand in lantern light
Oh, touch you, beside you, it's greyer than at night
