Come Friendly Bombs Lyrics
Black knuckles and broken teeth
Grey days and grey streets
Same faces the same release
If this town had a name it would be defeat
So sick of waking up to white skies
Can't stand the look in everybodies eyes
They want to kick my fucking head in just to feel alive
Do you wanna go?
I wanna go
Black knuckles and broken teeth
I've got more fillings than butchers got beef
We're not the same ones you and me
If we were the same ones
I'll draw this knife across my throat and bleed it dry
Black knuckles and broken teeth
I know your face from early last week
About eleven i was walking home
Down a fucking alley i was on my own
So sick of trouble from these hearts
Can't take the beatings in the fucking dark
Too bad this mongrels got a bite worse than his bark
Grey days and grey streets
Same faces the same release
If this town had a name it would be defeat
So sick of waking up to white skies
Can't stand the look in everybodies eyes
They want to kick my fucking head in just to feel alive
Do you wanna go?
I wanna go
Black knuckles and broken teeth
I've got more fillings than butchers got beef
We're not the same ones you and me
If we were the same ones
I'll draw this knife across my throat and bleed it dry
Black knuckles and broken teeth
I know your face from early last week
About eleven i was walking home
Down a fucking alley i was on my own
So sick of trouble from these hearts
Can't take the beatings in the fucking dark
Too bad this mongrels got a bite worse than his bark

this is about some groups of people from their home town watford who just beat people up. they exist everywhere and everyone knows what this song is on about.
its about slough actually
Frank said on stage that "Its about living a shit town". It really does sound like it could be about anywhere
thisis an amazing song my fave lyrics ever
slough? gallows write lyrics about everything around them, its about watford
slough? gallows write lyrics about everything around them, its about watford
slough? gallows write lyrics about everything around them, its about watford
Gallows were formed in slough as Frank was working there at the time.
It's about Slough (I'm from there unfortunatly) as "Come Friendly Bombs" is a line from the old poem titled Slough and is about the town. And the band were working there at the time of all the early material and most of the album was written here.
exactly. its about slough. frank used to live there, and by all accounts its a shithole
