Flags from the Old Regime - Peter Doherty

Let’s have it right

We all know the score

Been up for three nights

Stuck behind the door

Chewing off your jaw

The fame they stoned you with

You soldiered it

And made your fortune

But you broke inside

But I don’t want to die anymore

Any more than I did want to die before

The fame they stoned you with

You soldiered it

And you made your fortune

But you broke inside

Stand up there in front of the whole world

And you don’t feel them songs no more

Oh me, oh my, any

You won’t be coming down tonight

So let’s have it right

We all know the score

Been up for four nights

You’re stuck behind the door

Chewing off your jaw

And the fame they stoned you with

Your tiny shoulders soldiered it

And you made your fortune

But you stone cold broke inside

You have to stand up there in front of the whole wide world

And you don’t feel them songs no more

Oh me, Amy, any

You won’t be coming down tonight
