Ocean Colour Scene - Emily Chambers

Emily Chambers

Emily Chambers would make it pay
Everyone knew shed turn out that way
She turned her back and shell be okay
But shes not okay at all
Every night with the radio on
Emily fears that the day wont come
The moon is there to do her harm
Shes not all right at all
Dont get arrested
Dont buy a machine gun
you are on the run
And you are not on the scene
you are not so cool
And you are not a jerk
You may be a villain
But no Patty Hearst
you are Emily Chambers
And whats worse
Is a whipping wind
And a box in a hearse
And a trigger in your head
And a pen in your hand
And the pain in the verse
And the flat drying land
And the thin of the air
And a pain that hurts
you are Emily Chambers in the universe
(Repeat first verse)
Every night with the lamplight on
Emily fears that the day has gone
The moon is there to do her harm
Shes not all right at all
(Repeat chorus)
Emily Chambers would make it pay
Everyone knew shed turn out that way...
