Supergrass - St. Petersburg lyrics

In a foreign town with a morning sound man

I can find my way around

Soon be here at the photo line I guess

Armageddon coming down

And here lies a greedy state again

It's time to make a move on

'Cause in three days I'll be out of here

And it's not a day too soon

Firelight, the light of love, burns

Turns to ashes in your hand

... by the morning light I guess

Rather than waking on the stand

Set sail for St. Petersburg

Making use of my time

'Cause in three days I'll be out of here

And it's not a day too soon

Head out to a better life again

Get a job, settle down

Fall in love, of a full on feeling

I can't stand the here and now

Leave town for pity's sake you know

It's time to make a move on

'Cause in three days I'll be out of here

And it's not a day too soon

Yeah, three days I'll be out of here

And it's not a day too soon
