Lyrics: It was a Tuesday And it was... bleak Torn from the wreckage of a broken home Only knows the love that he was shown He barges into the Café he owns To bark marching orders At poor Kitchen Porters. Fresh from the microwave, A sandwich, thrown on a chipped plate The kitchen is in a state, There's no need for pruning When business is blooming And his grandmother was a proud Filipino Slips his mind as he Dips his vote Into the world of a well known racist Who explains it all in words he knows These fingers were made for pointing And enough is never enough The busker boy's chasing the dream By the beggar with the card machine And passing by the suit and tie wont cast an eye Too fixated on a screen And blessed are the meek I've heard them say but honestly There's no romance in poverty When dinner is a novelty And these fingers were made for pointing And enough is never enough Trudging Galway streets alone I can't help thinking, not to blame, Romantic Ireland's dead and gone It's with O' Leary on the plane And everybody loves to bitch Factions speak louder than herds When rags to riches Turns wags to witches Fine feathers dont make fine birds These fingers were made for pointing.
Great choon boy's.. 🎸🎸"Romantic Irelands dead and gone , its with o leary on a plane " Great line, very clever... Very clever video too ... Top Band 🎸🎸👏👏
It is one of few pure living elements from the vulgar wave, 2000-2008 era. that is just beautiful, just like Strokes, Franz Ferdinand, and early a.monkeys but definitely in a different and its own unique way
You just made Morrissey, Robert Smith, Barney Sumner, and Mac real nervous. I hate to give kids credit when they challenge the big guys, but you fellars are amazing. Right down to your Joy Division haircuts. Lads.
Steve Lamacq ended his 6 Music Recommends show with this track. If John Peel was still with us, this would get my vote for 2020's Festive 50. Best track I've heard all year. Cheers!!

I'm so grateful for the spotify algorithm showing me you guys
Just stumbled onto these on Spotify....wow just wow..... Best I've heard in ages ...loving all the choons 😎
This song is beyond incredible. Best song I have heard in a long while.
It's not like there's much alternative given the state of the (un)music industry.
Shades of Editors (A very good thing in my book), so looking forward to seeing them in Feb '24
Heard these last night in the academy....absolutely amazing... excellent musicians and the lead singer is sound.
Not really. He has terrible diction. Can't understand half of the lyric.
Lyrics: It was a Tuesday
And it was... bleak
Torn from the wreckage of a broken home
Only knows the love that he was shown
He barges into the Café he owns
To bark marching orders
At poor Kitchen Porters.
Fresh from the microwave,
A sandwich, thrown on a chipped plate
The kitchen is in a state,
There's no need for pruning
When business is blooming
And his grandmother was a proud Filipino
Slips his mind as he
Dips his vote
Into the world of a well known racist
Who explains it all in words he knows
These fingers were made for pointing
And enough is never enough
The busker boy's chasing the dream
By the beggar with the card machine
And passing by the suit and tie wont cast an eye
Too fixated on a screen
And blessed are the meek
I've heard them say but honestly
There's no romance in poverty
When dinner is a novelty
And these fingers were made for pointing
And enough is never enough
Trudging Galway streets alone
I can't help thinking, not to blame,
Romantic Ireland's dead and gone
It's with O' Leary on the plane
And everybody loves to bitch
Factions speak louder than herds
When rags to riches
Turns wags to witches
Fine feathers dont make fine birds
These fingers were made for pointing.
I think it's "dips his toes" not "dips his vote"
Ah this is just deadly. Loved hearing it live for a couple of years now. That chorus catches me out every time. Love it
I can't believe you are not huge in the U.S. You guys are exquisite .
Wow. I stumbled upon this. And it has been many years since a song has grabbed me this instantly. Love 😍

One of the best bands in ages!
Amazing tune! My favourite one yet!!
Great choon boy's.. 🎸🎸"Romantic Irelands dead and gone , its with o leary on a plane " Great line, very clever... Very clever video too ... Top Band 🎸🎸👏👏

Neighbours: Why do you keep playing that song over and over again?
Me: Because Enough is never enough. DUH!

Ótimo!

Ассалам алейкум работяги. Каеф балдеж
Will you be releasing an album this year?.
1:04 nice one
Increible, me recuerda un poco al sonido de sonic youth 🥴
Where have I heard the main riff from? 🤯
These gingers were made for anointing
What kind of guitar is that?
Going by the shape it's a Jaguar or Jazzmaster of some variety
WooooW....geiler scheiß. ... deepPunk..? ! Yeahh

Someone please count how many times he touches his hair
Great lyrics. Grabbed me straight off.
Quite good , ripping the stooges guitar riff off abit though 😜
That guitar riff cuts.
Timo werner
Does have mange? Keeps scratching his head. Oh wait...
And it was... bleak
Take an average Indie song, mix it in with some watered down Idles mimicking and et voila.
nothing like Idles.
@@besty1792 in your opinion
Nah, nothing like Idles whatsoever. Fontaines, Editors and Director maybe, but not Idles
@@listentoblank1 That's fine, I trust my ears.
@@TheDandob1982 like what Idles stuff do you mean? I can hear a bit of similarity to the Meat EP alright maybe, but nothing from the last two albums. Which songs are you referring to?
Yawn. Same old same old bore.
