Letra de Sweet and Tender, Julian

[Verse 1]
We were promised the best years of our lives
All we got was name-calling and fights
Because narrow minded fools
Run comprehensive schools
[Verse 2]
Jules was one of the chosen few, whose charisma and charm seemed to carry him through
But when he turned his eye on you
Well there was not much you could do
'Cause he was pissing about while they were passing out their rules
Again, and again, and again
His punishment was overdue
[Chorus]
Julian Stokes used to tell jokes
Spent half his time trying to make us laugh
It was all fine, 'til he crossed the line
When he took the piss out of Chelsea's dad
She planned her sweet revenge for weeks and when it came off it was class
Julian Stokes, sobbing and soaked
Walked home alone from the formal dance
[Verse 2]
Chelsea’s dad was on remand for assault with intent, near the taxi-stand
And each trip to visit him seemed to take a little longer than the last
But Jules was just too cool to care
He would mention things that others wouldn't dare
And he soon learned the price of making light of someone else's plight
When nostalgia grips me, it hits me in the face
Again and again and again
That school was such an awful place
[Chorus]
Julian Stokes used to tell jokes
Spent half his time trying to make us laugh
It was all fine, 'til he crossed the line
When he took the piss out of Chelsea's dad
She planned her sweet revenge for weeks and when it came off it was class
Julian Stokes, sobbing and soaked
Walked home alone from the formal dance
[Outro]
Julian
Julian
Julian Stokes
Used to tell jokes
Julian Stokes
Used to tell jokes
But not anymore
Julian Stokes, he
Used to tell jokes
But not anymore
Julian Stokes, he
Used to tell jokes
But not anymore
Julian Stokes, he
Used to tell jokes
But not anymore
Julian Stokes, he
Used to tell jokes
Julian
