Curly & Raquel Lyrics by Martha

Blisters in the Pit of My Heart

2016

[Verse 1]
You tried to play it cool
When the blue lights started flashing
But that calm demeanour slipped
On the day that you got nicked
Cut me open and you'll see
That same anxiety runs all the way through me
That stick of rock you never licked
[Pre-Chorus]
All the stories that we tell
Roy and Hayley, Curly and Raquel
Romantic reference
Come on, tell me, what's your preference?
[Chorus]
Celebrating my love for you
With a stick and poke and an Irn Bru
And wondering if you can even tell
Finding some excuse to walk in your direction
Bathe you in concealed affection
Subtlety's a word I cannot spell
But it's probably just as well
[Verse 2]
Here's the rub, they bulldozed the Companions Club
Now we've gotta learn to occupy our time
Kicking stones, so it goes
All our favourite haunts are closed
Let's sack it off and play a board game back at mine
[Pre-Chorus]
Weatherfield, Mademoiselle
Thinking back to Curly and Raquel
On your arrival, I can turn on the subtitles
[Chorus]
Celebrating my love for you
With a cherry pop and a bad tattoo
And wondering if you can even tell
Finding some excuse to walk in your direction
Bathe you in concealed affection
Subtlety's a word I cannot spell
But it's probably just as well
[Bridge]
It's the story of a lonely kid who fell in love
When you spray painted 'ACAB' on the wall
Of the local village hall
[Guitar Solo]
[Outro]
Celebrate my love for you with a stick and poke tattoo
Celebrate my love for you with a stick and poke tattoo
Celebrate my love for you with a stick and poke tattoo
(It's the story of a lonely kid who fell in love
When you spray painted 'ACAB' on the wall)
