Passenger - Staring At The Stars [Anniversary Edition Acoustic]

Tobacco stains our yellow teeth
All our fingers and underneath
Our fingernails that clasp on sheets
As we try desperately to sleep
Hearts are sad and eyes are tired
All this Red Bull keeps us wired
It gives us wings
It gives us rings around our eyes
We put three sugars in our tea, sit to watch day time TV
And laugh at mums who don't know who the father is
And all our girlfriends are long gone
We watch too much internet porn
Who needs love when you've got silicone and strap ons?

And beer bloats our spoilt guts and shit jobs keep us in ruts
And keep us eyeing up the whats and ifs and buts and maybes and
Falling over in the street is just a part of every week
And we lie drunkenly just staring at the stars
Remember when they were in reach, all the teachers used to teach
You can do anything if you put your mind to it
We put our minds to it all but disappointment crashed the ball
Could've done anything, we just never quite knew it

So tie your scarf on tight
It's to be a cold night
Tie your scarf on tight
It's to be a cold night
Tie your scarf on tight
It's to be a cold night
Tie your scarf on tight
It's to be a cold night

So tie your scarf on tight
It's to be a cold night
Tie your scarf on tight
It's to be a cold night
Tie your scarf on tight
It's to be a cold night
Tie your scarf on tight
It's to be a cold night
