  • 7 & 3 Is The Striker's Name by Paul Wellerittle prick, you're crossing every line
    The winds of change and the sands of time
    7 & 3 is the striker's name
    Washing his hands as he walks away

    Come on, come on
    The sky has arrived
    Wings are clipped
    But we still might fly away

    Come on, come on
    The sky has arrived
    Wings are clipped
    But we still might fly away

    Curse my master, and his slaves
    And his soldiers too
    Curse those fuckers, in their castle
    They're all bastards too

    Keep me stable, I may be fine
    I don't want to fuck it up this time
    She loves me tender, she loves me strong
    We're star-cross'd lovers and we sing this song

    Come on, come on
    The sky has arrived
    Wings are clipped
    But we still might fly away

    Come on, come on
    The sky has arrived
    Wings are clipped
    But we still might fly away

    Curse my master, and his slaves
    And his soldiers too
    Curse those fuckers, in their castle
    They're all bastards too

    Riding in the night like a thief, although
    Not too skinny and not too bold
    7 & 3 is the striker's name
    Washing his hands as he walks away

    She loves me tender and she loves me strong
    We're star-cross'd lovers and we sing this song
    Here goes... Writer/s: PAUL WELLER, SIMON DINE
