Hope Day Songtext
von Cardiacs

Staying with me, my sun shines on me
And for me, occasionally gives me hope
For the day I always wanted
I know the pub is never going to find anyone to know
You′re kicking up your ass while the deafening siren turns over
On my own when you don't know your own being
What′s it focused on? You'd fight turns right or wrong
Look at me now, wow, I'm impressed
You′ll see when you see me on the beach
See me on the beach, see me on the beach
It gives me hope for the day I always wanted

Uniform, a man of action
Uniform, a man of action
Blame him to save blaming me
I′m halfway reaching

So blame him to save blaming me
And hurting someone pointlessly is as easy as ABC
So carve me out an effigy


I feel as high as the moon
But never mind, it's hope′s state too
It's plain to see I′m only bluffing
Man of action, free him suffering
Death can sound a thousand things
But I'm halfway home

Blame him to save blaming me
And hurting someone pointlessly is as easy as ABC
So carve me out an effigy

Man of action leaves no traces
Dead soldiers with silly faces
Mr. S holds all the aces
Playing games and winning races
My soldier, I′d kill you though
I loved you more than all the world
The thought of dying makes me ill
I'm scared because I want to kill
So blame him to save blaming me
And hurting someone pointlessly is as easy as ABC
So carve me out an effigy
