lyrics

Be careful what you wish for son
Take a note of all you've thrown down the well
Put a tag on your dreams, list out every one
And put them on a trestle table ready to sell
Be careful with the love you gain
Take note of every heart that you collect
Cos sure enough when your memories are out on the slab
You'll be wanting something there to dissect

We all just wander round
Filling in the gaps
Who's gone, who's left behind
all I suggest is throw your hat to the wind and call your mother back home

Be careful who you pray to dear
Mentally note down every secret they forgive
Who's on the other end of the line I fear
May just be sifting through your guilt with a sieve
Be careful with the wealth that trickles
Towards your second hand soul to invest
In  every golden nugget unicorn tooth
Cos someday all you are will be weighed and assessed

We all just wander round...

Take care, little one, when you step from the train
Mind the gap when you're slipping in the rain
Take a check on the board for the platform once
 your time for departure  won't happen again
Just stroll along it leisurely don't try to push in
Don't take more cuttings than you've sown seeds
Au revoir, auf wiedersehen
Maybe the manner of your exit will outlive your deeds


We all just wander round
Filling in the gaps
Who's gone, who's left this town behind
Some day you'll drop your hat to the ground and then you'll call it a home

about

Julian Gaskell UK

Described by angry locals as the bastard son of Waits, Strummer, Reinhardt and Rachmaninov, Julian Gaskell’s music over the last 20 years has followed a wayward path of withering agricultural-folk, klezmer accordion, overly-lyrical punk, gypsy-jazz guitar, tangos, waltzes, rhumbas and skiffled-up boogie-woogie piano. ... more
