Lyrics Johnny Flynn

Johnny Flynn

Oh To Eat An Apple

Jesus Christ, eat your apple,

It's raining cats & dogs

If Happy-Go-Lucky can dance with a girl

And then Cain killed his Abel in fog

And I'm in denial of one or two things,

And three or four besides

And I'll suffer you if you look in my eye

Like the moon has its turn on the tides, on the tides

She sits on the front of the bus like a teacup,

Christening glass with her gaze

And I'm right behind watching her with my knees up

And stretching the time with my ways

I like the rivers in cities,

They've always been there, you see,

I like the feeling of falling through time

And that's what the rivers can be, to me

I never knew you an instant,

But I knew you the instant I saw

Tthat the river went by and you cast it your eye

And we weren't on the bus anymore

I hate the feelings of guilt

That I get when I'm alone or in crowds,

Then I'm with friends and it's fine once again

And it's not such a sin to be proud
