Text: Libertines. The Libertines. Ha Ha Wall.
If you get tired
Of just hanging around
Pick up a guitar
And spin a web of sound
And then you could be
Strung out all day
With lovers and clowns
Now I find myself
Hanging around
It's been a long war
We're tired and dirty
Still not dirty enough for you
Well, I've been thieving
I stole the light from the dawn
But if you come around this ledge
You should never been born
Oh, tell me you can see me
Oh, can't you see through it all?
I'm empty, lost, alone
Won't you heed my call?
It's been a long war
We're still tired and dirty
Still not dirty enough for you, oh
Oh, I'm so tired
Of hanging around
Oh, I'll pick up a guitar
Spin a web of sounds
S-s-speak my love
So tired of hanging around
Just hanging around
Just hanging around
Of just hanging around
Pick up a guitar
And spin a web of sound
And then you could be
Strung out all day
With lovers and clowns
Now I find myself
Hanging around
It's been a long war
We're tired and dirty
Still not dirty enough for you
Well, I've been thieving
I stole the light from the dawn
But if you come around this ledge
You should never been born
Oh, tell me you can see me
Oh, can't you see through it all?
I'm empty, lost, alone
Won't you heed my call?
It's been a long war
We're still tired and dirty
Still not dirty enough for you, oh
Oh, I'm so tired
Of hanging around
Oh, I'll pick up a guitar
Spin a web of sounds
S-s-speak my love
So tired of hanging around
Just hanging around
Just hanging around
The Libertines
