Ed Harcourt – Nothing But A Bad Trip lyrics

[Verse 1]
The reaper came in caress my trembling fingers
Ask me to sing heard I could play once was a singer
Open my mouth but all that came out was a echo
I knew without doubt that every man can sometimes be what I was

[Chorus]
Nothing like a bad trip to bring you down
There ain’t no evil when your world ain’t proud
Got no smiles in the local bars
Praying for your mother there’s a face in the crowd
Nothing like a bad trip to bring you down
The only bird when a fish bowl town
Nothing but a bad trip will bring you around

[Verse 2]
Introduced his friends his conquest [?] and pass the [?]
And set this place soon will be on the neibohrelly end
Open my mouth scream that came out was not even human
Got back on the horse run away for a fix of some [?]

[Chorus]
Nothing like a bad trip to bring you down
There ain’t no evil when your world ain’t proud
Got no smiles in the local bars
Praying for your mother there’s a face in the crowd
Nothing like a bad trip to bring you down
The only bird when a fish bowl town
Nothing but a bad trip will bring you around

[Chorus]
Never never never never coming down
Nothing like a bad trip to bring you down
There ain’t no evil when your world ain’t proud
Got no smiles in the local bars
Praying for your mother there’s a face in the crowd
Nothing like a bad trip to bring you down
The only bird when a fish bowl town
Nothing but a bad trip will bring you around
Never never never never coming down
Nothing like a bad trip to bring you down
There ain’t no evil when your world ain’t proud
Got no smiles in the local bars
Praying for your mother there’s a face in the crowd
Nothing like a bad trip to bring you down
The only bird when a fish bowl town
Nothing but a bad trip will bring you around
Never never never never coming down
