chugga - ben chavasse lyrics

she was a flare then
kate knew a thing or two about enticing the boys in
pastel pink chest glistened above the water she treaded
when we locked, everyone was shut off, it was aimless

she kept at her distance
under the awning, we sealed n0body’s business
twelve strong, they gawked and their chimes contested
her eye would be drifting but return, uninvested

homeroom with a stinger
bench*side, pages open, curling hair ’round her finger
centre of the circle, she was wincing at davies
stretched blouse, stark colours, lofty, racing

symbols on posters
her face alight with desire, a vice around her shoulders
virginal lilies construct a face unlined
caged by daughters of young mothers, cyclical, designed
so, when the date falls (when the date falls)
and you become absent in the marquee halls
a generational flood (a generational current)
we were carried off in an inescapable torrent
21 and taken (21 and sober)
we’ve been shelved, honey
we’ve been forsaken over and over

with the speakers down dialled
her parents handed her two keys, off the hardwood we filed
on blankets, we met eyes, and her lip quivered
didn’t think of the families when we tried to deliver

so, when the date falls (when the date falls)
and you become absent in the marquee halls
a generational flood (a generational current)
we were carried off in an inescapable torrent
21 and taken (21 and sober)
we’ve been shelved, honey
we’ve been forsaken over and over
we’ve been shelved, honey
we’ve been forsaken over and over
we’ve been shelved, honey
we’ve been forsaken over and over
