Love, Sweat and Beer

Let's Go....

At home on that friday night
and his weekends been made
because he's just been paid 
he'll be at tonight's hadouken gig
he's got his tickets and it's gonna be big
gel on his hair and he's finally ready
his sheets are washed and there's hype in his belly
only 17 and he's up for the game
straight out the door
met his boys on the train

What he don't know
Is that he's on a roll
Cuz when he's at the gig
hes gonna meet a girl
there gonna loose there mates
there gonna stay out late
Cuz it is love in the crowd.

Sick music at loud volumes
Plastic cups of beer and hormone
Bright lights and rippling guitar
At the gig where he met her
And there's sweat on the ceiling
Party and that waiting feeling
He crashes out and everyone's screaming
At the gig where she kissed him

at home on the early evening
She's getting dressed up
with her mates in the room
they simply farse what she's tryin' on
slaps on her nicest perfume
the girls tell her that she looks hot
they drink alcho pops and neck a few shots
time up and there ready to rock
the shops sells 20 they can buy fags from the shop

What he don't know
is that he's on a roll
Cuz when he's at the gig
hes gonna meet a girl
there gonna loose there mates
there gonna stay out late
Cuz it is love in the crowd.

Sick music at loud volumes
Plastic cups of beer and hormone
Bright lights and rippling guitar
At the gig where he met her
And there's sweat on the ceiling
Party and that waiting feeling
He crashes out and everyone's screaming
At the gig where she kissed him

so there inside the venue
it's quarter past 8
got an hour till the band takes stage
she looks over and spots our boy
he's lost his face and hes acting coy
sure the party weren't great???
one hour and she leaves her mates
she walks over and she gets closer
he looks and turns and notices her...

(All this time)

The lights go down
The air is thick
I'll search for words
Atmosphere is sick
Silhouettes appear
The crowd all cheer
It feels like they've been waiting years...
