Delivery Lyrics
This song is Peters warning to his fans - 'dont be like me'
This song is about Pete not wanting other people to follow his drug taking ways. I had a lick, it caved my skull in like a brick This is Pete conveying how the drugs have messed up his head
Oh now what use am I to anyone He feels useless because of what they have done to him
Fucked, forlorn, frozen beneath the summer When everyone else is happy he still feels miserable
Don't sing along or you'll get what I got If you do drugs like him you'll end up as msierable as him
It's been suspected that Pete has Borderline Personality Disorder, and these lyrics sort of explain some of the depressive thoughts he has. It sounds like he's depressed and struggling with drug addiction, he knows he's fucked up, and wants to change or he wants to be saved from his misery.
"And all, you skins and mods, now get together Make pretend it's 1969 forever"
classic.
Im fairly sure its:
"Yeah you, now you, now you, You've finally left school Oh what, on earth, do you intend to do?"
I realise this version posted was probably an earlier recording...so there are a few lyric changes in the recorded/album version....
changes are in CAPS.
-
'Cast a drift of the shores of SHOTTER'S nation' ...The name of the album will be 'Shotter's nation'.
-
'OH NOW what use am I to anyone F**KED, forlorn, frozen beneath the summer Don't sing along or you'll get what I got'
3 I agree w Jayd,it is SCHOOL.
- 'Or find a girl, have a drink, have a dance and PRAY. THIS SONG MIGHT DELIVER ME'
hope thats okay, i realise a lot was nitpicking! Thanks
Love the song - although nobody else think its a total rip off of 'You Really Got Me' by the Kinks...not taking anything away mind, Delivery is still a great song in its own right!
^^^ I wouldn't call it a total rip off, but that's what I thought the radio was about to play when I heard the introduction.
quality tune by pete its gonna b massive!
"its the songs that deliver me, straight from the heart of my misery"
does any1 else think this mite b a referance 2 his music helpin him thru the turbulance of splittin up with kate and drugs rehab?
best thing petes done in ages. well happy hes off drugs now =]] hopefully it lasts. this song is class and YEHH i did notice the similarity to the kinks.
