Born On 5th November

There was November in your eyes

There'd be no pennies for the guys

There were fireworks over London

But you weren't among them anymore



When it got darker the nightmares came

I lit a sparkler to write your name

There were fireworks over London

You weren't among them anymore



Because you're too beautiful

Gunpowder is louder, that's all



You should never play with fireworks

You might get your fingers burned

The blue touch paper brings a touch of violence

But you'll never learn



Because you're too beautiful

Gunpowder is louder, that's all



Beautiful, that's what the fireworks are for

Yes, you're beautiful, you're so beautiful

Too beautiful for such an ugly world
