This is a declaration of independence
Pull up the bridges, don’t let anybody in
This is a declaration of independence
And this island has gone to the dogs
Take your grievances to the street
Leave the commuters in their commuter trains
Leave their kids in their prams
In our parks
In our streets
In our towns
This is a declaration of independence
Your nothing but a cheap gang of estate agents
So don’t dictate!
You call it fall out
We call it payback
We’re gonna make you wish
Wish you didn’t say that
This is not our crisis
We are not your collateral
This is a declaration of independence
And it’s unilateral

I don’t know what sets you apart
Is it something I said
Or did it go wrong from the start
Well I don’t mind if you don’t
But I don’t think so
No I don’t think so
It’s been every night for the last 6 years
And I only smoke so you won’t see me clear
Could I set it far behind?
Well I don’t think so
No I don’t think so
Bus drivers out of control
Out on Hackney Downs
Stockbrokers made bad investments
All over this town
I saw you carry the torch
I saw where you went down
They say they’re unstoppable
I think that’s impossible

I got you on my mind
It’s a full moon tonight
You got the wedding cake
I got the cola-wine
And we will go to sleep
And you will not believe what we’ve done
You know the younger girls
They make us feel too old
They've not heard of The Fall
Not been to school at all
And we will go to sleep
And you will not believe what we’ve done
I want you, on my side
It’s nearly 3am
They’re dancing like it’s ten
We’ll find a better bar
You know where our friends are
And we will go to sleep
And they will not believe what we’ve done
I heard you sold the van
We got two fake Gaugin's
And we will get the cash
Dance to Two Seven's Clash
And you will fall asleep
And we will not believe what we’ve done
I want you, on my side

I dream of you
On the night bus
277
Getting your feet wet
I dream of you
In a trendy bar in Dalston
Surrounded by idiots
With ridiculous haircuts
And I want to dream again
I dream of you in Regent’s Canal
Swimming with the turtles
And the pre-historic fishes
Serenaded by the guy from the palm tree
With “Fools Rush In”
I dream of in an imaginary record shop
Staffed by new wave
One hit wonders
We got Jonah Lewie
We got Jilted John
We got The Only Ones
We got the guys who sang “Turning Japanese”
I think it was
I think it was
I think it was The Vapours
And I want to dream again
I dream of you in flight across the atlantic
With two too many
Gin & Tonics
And when I woke up you were not there
You couldn’t look me in the eyes
And I want to dream again

And when I find you
I’m gonna make you better
And I don’t want you
I just want to forget you
I still got so many of your clothes and
I still got so many of your records
Though she’s a vegan
She’s got a thing for leather
And I’m off the weed now
That we are back together
I still can’t go out
Though she does I bet
I still cant look our friends in the eyes yet.

I was in the attic, you could not believe it
He was there beside me, and you could not believe it
And you were sleeping
He was outside, in the car park by Tesco’s
And he saw nothing
And you were sleeping
You know he was there too
And you were sleeping
And you were, you were
Remembered it, in the rain
I wanted to get out of your sight
You said we’d get out while we’re still young
I don’t know if want to anymore
Outside in the rain
I want you back again
And you were sleeping
I have always go you on my mind
And you were sleeping

I just can’t stand the things you say
And you’re always in my way
When you walk out in the rain
Only I know where you…
And I just can’t stand the things you do
And it’s always up to you
When you walk out through the room
Only I know where you…
And I just can’t stand to see you go
And you’re always leaving so
What is up with that you know
Only I know where you…
I was drunk, and he was hit
The insurance said it still was lit when
I fell asleep
And I set fire to your sofa

I got a lot of style
And I can stay up for hours
I know you won’t come back tonight
You said so
And when I wake I got a minute
Until it hits me then I’m in it
I’m not dreaming, since you’re leaving
I can hardly sleep at all
I got a lot of style
And I can stay up for hours
I know you won’t come back tonight
You said so
You don’t know this city at all
You think you’re like us but you’re wrong
You don’t know this city no more
And we don’t want your money
I got a lot of style
And I can stay up for hours
I know you won’t come back tonight
You said so
And when I wake I got a minute
Until it hits me then I’m in it
I’m not dreaming, since you’re leaving
I can hardly sleep at all
And when I sleep I got forever
I don’t want it since we’ve severed
I’m not joking
And I’m sober
Wake me up when this is over

High five! Sick it up!
It’s better out than in
And I know where to begin
Slap-dash. Shoookatur
I got your secateurs
I got you by the golden curves
I want to tell you something
You know that theres no other
I got you where I want you
I took you for a lover
And now it won’t stop snowing
I need you more than ever
Not knowing where we’re going
That’s part of the adventure
Its in your face
You got it in your hair
You know, and you know you don’t care
And theres nothing
Theres nothing at all
You got it, it’s your way to fall
I want to tell you something
You know that theres no other
I got you where I want you
I took you for a lover
And now it won’t stop snowing
I need you more than ever
Not knowing where we’re going
That’s part of the adventure

The light would shine right through your dress
And trace a line between your legs
And Stefan said, and Jonny said
They said nothing, they’re drunk now get to bed
He acts as if he’s not impress
Dances only under your duress
And while he’s sulking at the bar
I’m out there pulling killer moves on the dancefloor
Summer nights, and summer fights
We’re riding through the park at night
And when the ecstasy wears off
My girls still a south paw
Do you remember 2004
We used to dance til we could dance no more
We used to slip out of the clubs alone
I used to swim you used to hold my clothes
And I’d walk you home.
We never liked to play there anyway

BLOOD ON MY PILLOWS
AND MY INSIDES ACHE
I GOT TROUBLE IN MY DREAMS
BUT IT’S WORSE WHEN I’M AWAKE
AND I DON’T NEED NO PHARMACIST
BECAUSE I SELF-MEDICATE
AND I’M IN LOVE WITH YOU, JONNY
I MISS OUR RECORDS AND YOU KNOW
THAT I CAN’T PLAY THEM
I MISS OUR FRIENDS BUT
I JUST COULDNN’T FACE THEM
INSOMNIA AND MEMORIES
I WANNA ERASE THEM
BUT WHAT CAN I DO?
I’M IN LOVE WITH YOU, JONNY

Tigercats UK
Tigercats’ singer Duncan played in Esiotrot until suddenly he didn't, and after a respectful interval of ambling around for 18 months he asked his brother Giles to join on bass in a new band. The name Tigercats appeared out of the air and was soon followed by Jonny on drums, Stefan on guitar and Laura on keyboard. ... more
