Manchester

Manchester - Attery Squash

Buildings of gray

On a liquid sky

Turns the day into night

The bars are filling

The fighting irish

Smug young married couples

Dressing down for the weekend

Pert shop girls

And typists tip tapping

Into blaring dance halls

Hard faced villains

Dressing up for the drinking club

While suburbia sits watching television

Manchester Manchester England

Manchester I'll always love you

Bouncers in tuxedo

With butterflies round their necks

Love tattooed on the right hand

Then hate on the left

Stone roses just like angels

Heaven is this noise

Fancied by the shop girls

Admired by the sweatshop boys

So we're greeting in the snug bar

Waiting for Jacey Ace

Hooky's by the jukebox

And his splendid to entertain

Remember Tony Wilson

Live on channel 4

Vote for Rodney Marsh

'Cause best's on sale again

Manchester Manchester England

Manchester I'll always love you

Manchester Manchester England

Manchester I'll always love you

I hear a song by Steven Patrick

A crocodile tear paints the dead

Everybody starts shouting hang the DJ

So he puts on 808 state instead

I see a face at the hacienda

I see a heart that's torn in two

I see a head that flies

The happy mondays

And a lonely girl called you

A lonely girl called you

Manchester Manchester England

Manchester I'll always love you

Manchester Manchester England

Manchester I'll always love you
