The


The only band with two WOTW on the show.
A most fantastic comeback from The Verve. See them loud on tour in June, but most of it's sold out so you can't.

Bitter Sweet Symphony

Cause it's a bitter sweet symphopny, that's life,
Trying to make ends meet,
You're a slave to money, then you die,
I'll take you down to the only road I've ever been down,
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the things meet, yeah,

No change, I can change, I can change, I can change,
But I'm here in my morn, I'm here in my morn,
And I'm a million different people from one day to the next,
I can change, my morn no no, no no no no......

Well I'm never brave, but tonight I'm on my knees yeah,
I need to hear some sounds that recognise the pain in me yeah,
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now,

But the airways are clean and there's nobody singing to me now,

No change, I can change, I can change, I can change,
But I'm here in my morn, I'm here in my morn,
And I'm a million different people from one day to the next,
I can change, my morn no no, no no no no......

(if you ever feel down)
No change, I can change, I can change, I can change,
But I'm here in my morn, I'm here in my morn,
And I'm a million different people from one day to the next,
I can change, my morn no no, no no no no......
(repeat as many times as you like)




The Drugs Don't Work

All this talk of getting old,
It's getting me down my love,
Like a cat in a bag waiting to drown,
This time I'm coming down,
And I hope you're thinking of me,
As you lay down on your side,
Now the drugs don't work,
They just make you worse,
But I know I'll see your face again,
Now the drugs don't work,
They just make you worse,
But I know I'll see your face again,


But I know I'm on the losing streak,
As I pass down my old street,
If you want to show, then just let me know,
And I'll sing in your ear again,
Now the drugs don't work,
They just make you worse,
But I know I'll see your face again,
Now the drugs don't work,
They just make you worse,
But I know I'll see your face again,
Cause baby....
ooooohhhhhhh (sha la laa laa laa) if heavens fall,
I'm coming too,
Just like you saaaaaaid,
You leave my life, I'm better out there,

(Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Woooooooohh
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Woooooooohh
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Never coming down, Never coming down,
Never coming down, No more no more,
Never coming down, Never coming down,
Never coming down, No more no more,)
