Boss Trick - Real Lies

Sat down in The Crown, pushing suds around

Watching navvies mourn the 3.15 from Punchestown

A cloud of memory surrounds

Two wanderers from Woodberry Down

I felt like I was part of something

And for that, I’ll say this

I’ve never been a part of something

So bliss to reminisce

King says at the bar you’re coming down

The instant chemistry is calling

And it’s live, just like you said, your sound

We stayed up with The Fall

Neighbours banging all four walls

New friends in the sprawl

The faces pushing past

I felt like I was part of something

And for that, I’ll say this

I’ve never been a part of something

So bliss to reminisce

Twenty thousand streets beneath the stars

And they’re all ours

We found magic in the parlance of the passing cars

Do you remember, crashing house parties in France

Watching girls who couldn’t dance

Laugh at gendarmes in the aftermath?

I felt like I was part of something

And for that, I’ll say this

I’ve never been a part of something

That was ever such bliss to reminisce

On ley-lines when we split the halves

The Despair Hippo, and Pat sat in his laser bath

They say all good things have to end

Like the dreams we had back then

Writing songs to pay the rent

Do you remember, every night was us and them

All the secrets that we’d burn through

In the rooms that we’d return to, my friend

I felt like we were part of something

And for that, I’ll say this

I’ve never been a part of something

So bliss to reminisce

Take it away, Patrice…

Dogs are barking in the dark

At Richard in his Ipswich scarf

RIPeople’s Club, T-shirt, Bossman, Russ and Monty

Cockney Baader-Meinhof, Johnny, Vic and Jean-Luc Ponty

Out to John and Joe, Cater, Nath, the burner phone

All back to Ronalds Road

The faces pushing past

I felt like I was part of something

And for that, I’ll say this

You’ll always be a part of something

That is ever such bliss to reminisce
