Genre: Pop

  • Songwriters: Guy Edward John Garvey, Richard Barry Jupp, Craig Lee Potter, Mark Ellis Potter, Peter James Turner

Lippy kids on the corner again
Lippy kids on the corner begin settling like crows
Though I never perfected the simian stroll
The cigarette senate was everything then

Do they know those days are golden?
Build a rocket, boys
Build a rocket, boys

One long June I came down from the trees
And curbstone cool, you were a freshly painted angel
Walking on walls, stealing booze and hour long hungry kisses
And nobody knew me at home anymore

Build a rocket, boys
Build a rocket, boys
Build a rocket, boys

Lippy kids on the corner again
Lippy kids on the corner begin settling like crows
And I never reflected that simian stroll, no

Do they know those days are golden?
Build a rocket, boys
Build a rocket, boys

One long June I came down from the trees
And curbstone cool, you were a freshly painted angel
Walking on walls, stealing booze and hour long hungry kisses
And nobody knows me at home anymore

Build a rocket, boys
Build a rocket, boys
Build a rocket, boys
