Frank Turner - Tattoos
Oh it's payday
yes it's payday
I got my pay
cheque from the man
There's not so many jobs
that I can get these days
With these marks
all over my hands
But I'm gonna take
that cheque
I'm gonna head
across the track
To the wrong side
of this town
I'm gonna open the door
I'm gonna bask in the roar
Of that familiar buzzing
needle sound
Because the ink in my skin
Where the needle went in
However many years ago
Has left marks on my arms
And they say who I am
Everywhere that I go
Some people have one and
Some have one that
they're ashamed of
Most people think
that we're fools
Some people
don't get it and
Some people
don't care
And some of us
we have tattoos
Oh it's fading
yes it's fading
Some of the things
that I believed back then
Yes my skin has started
sagging and
The ink has started running
And I've got buddy tattoos
with people
Who aren't friends
Oh I've even got black x's
from when I was straight edge
So crack open a beer
friends now
And let's make a pledge
If we had the luck
to live our lives
A second time through
we'd be sure to get
the same tattoos
Because the ink in my skin
Where the needle went in
However many years ago
Has left marks on my arms
And they say who I am
Everywhere that I go
Some people have one and
Some have one that
they're ashamed of
Most people think
that we're fools
Some people
don't get it and
Some people
don't care
And some of us
we have tattoos
We've got hearts
for the lovers
And playing cards
for the gamblers
Black flag bars
for the punks
And sailing ships
for the ramblers
We got skulls
for the living
And the pain
pays our dues
And some of us
we have tattoos
Oh some of us
we have tattoos
Oh some of us
we have tattoos
Yes some of us
we have tattoos
yes it's payday
