Text: Libertines, The. Breck Road Lover.

I, I know a girl

And she flies

Right off the handle

At the sound

Of scratching on the wall

Well it could go either way

But I don't mind at all

Cause I'll go, I'll go

And I'll go to Liverpool, Oh oh oh

Well I know I'll be loved there

She's no scrubber

She's my Breck Road lover

And we wash in dirty waters

And walk the streets where

She gets her name



Oh my lady

My lady clear your ears now

And open up your eyes

We're all out of sync now

And we no longer harmonise



And if lust and despair

Are two bullets in the same gun

Well we've been playing Russian roulette

For far too long



So I'll go, I'll go, I'll go

Well I'll go back to Liverpool, oh oh oh

Well I know I'll be loved there

She's no scrubber

She's my Breck Road lover

And we wash in dirty waters

And walk the streets where

She gets her name



Yes, often as we lie

On the altar of the morning

Well I call up to the sky

Light my way, and I promise I'll believe



I'll go

I'll go, I know I'll go to Liverpool

Well I know I'll be loved there

She's no scrubber

She's my Breck Road lover

And we wash in dirty waters

And walk the streets where

She gets her name



You see I, I know a girl

And she flies

Right off the handle

Always at the sound

Of scratchings on the wall

It could go either way

But I don't mind at all



Cause I'll go, no I'll go, I'll go

Well, I'll go back to Liverpool, oh oh oh

Yes I know I'll be loved there

She's no scrubber

She's my Breck Road lover

And we wash in dirty waters

And we walk the streets where

She gets her name

We walk the streets where

She gets her name
