The B-Side from 'From Despair to Where' Well, one of them at least. I know the videos not fab but i figured it was at least something to look at while the beauty of the music washed over you and it just felt like a sepia song (?!?!?!) so sorry about that :P it's unusual stuff for manics, particually considering the next album they came out with after this was The Holy Bible so enjoy the sweet, lilting tune and cynical lyrics. Very Manics :D

oh, and here are the lyrics, despite it being one of James's clearer songs :P

I got married cos you should

we both knew we should

you do at our age

this stage of our career

things get tight

a ring helps get a mortgage

to move out of daddy's home

get a bigger car

easy access to the city

I can read the papers in peace

and laugh at the homeless

I know my friends criticize

but we get by ok

so what if theres no emotion

we can wake up anywhere

there's never a row

no time for a kiss

when you've got schedules to meet

trivialities seem so cheap

this is above love

this is more than real

this is all there is

this is as good as it gets-

intense morality parades

-1993

This is one of my favourite manics songs, really haunting and just a great simple pop song.
