[Chorus: Rob Harvey]
We line the streets like soldiers daily
To let them know that we ain't fading
This isn't fear, you can see it in my eyes
It's gonna stay like this, it's gonna stay like this
We line the streets like soldiers daily
To let them know that we ain't fading
This isn't fear, you can see it in my eyes
It's gonna stay like this until they realise

[Verse 1: Mike Skinner]
Eighty thousand people in a state of rowdy fever
There will never be a sequel to this evening
Singing in the rafters, in the wings and over galleys
And then after all the laughing, just a draught
From the wings and over galleys 'til I'm in a lonely alley
If a feeling from my childhood comes to me then I will rally
With all the clothes and all the rose-tinted rows that go and sully
Soak up that moment, woe is the finale

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Skinner]
Lonely, I am sinking in and over thinking it
Looking at the goal, only slowly, it is shrinking
Hesitate, hesitate, hesitate, wait
Any day, any day (Too late)
[Chorus: Rob Harvey]
We line the streets like soldiers daily
To let them know that we ain't fading
This isn't fear, you can see it in my eyes
It's gonna stay like this, it's gonna stay like this
We line the streets like soldiers daily
To let them know that we ain't fading
This isn't fear, you can see it in my eyes
It's gonna stay like this until they realise

[Verse 2: Mike Skinner]
The cheapest throwaway shades are my deepest stowaway aid
I'm up with the angels but keep a toe in the trade
Known these folks since I was little, but only through this ritual
It's a pity they don't know me, but what is there else than this?
Sweeping and sweeping, the speaking unceasing
From steeple to steeple, the people are shrieking
Soon we parade through the fence, absolutely Dame Judi Dench'd
And then stop, tell 'em to score and they flop

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Skinner]
I don't think I like this, I'm only ever nervous
I'm a fighter, I'm a fighter, but tonight I'd like to flight
Hesitate, hesitate, hesitate, wait
Any day, any day (Too late)
[Chorus: Rob Harvey]
We line the streets like soldiers daily
To let them know that we ain't fading
This isn't fear, you can see it in my eyes
It's gonna stay like this, it's gonna stay like this
We line the streets like soldiers daily
To let them know that we ain't fading
This isn't fear, you can see it in my eyes
It's gonna stay like this until they realise

[Outro: Mike Skinner]
The past isn't over, last minute grow
Ask me to show you, ask me to go
Or stab me in the throat
Hesitate, hesitate, hesitate, wait
Any day, any day (Too late)
