Blue Note Shen

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Rain on the doormat Mud on the soles Same old corridor New set of goals Phone on silent Eyes on the door Brother came broke Now he want more Late-night errands Bag in the coat Tried to stay clean Still got afloat Used to play records Now I play chess Move one square wrong And it’s more stress [Pre-Chorus] Low brass moan Heart stay numb Count them steps Here they come Blue smoke thick Face half-blind One wrong word And it’s lights on mine [Chorus] Blue Note Shen Come again Blue Note Shen I don’t bend Cold on my name Warm on the horn Blue Note Shen I was born Blue Note Shen Come again Blue Note Shen I don’t bend [Verse 2] Train to the ends Back with the crew Old school blazer Fresh by the blue Mum on the line Saying stay blessed I keep my head down Try and do my best They want the old me Sharp with the grin I’m in the back room Counting from ten Glass on the table Cards in the palm Everybody tense But I move calm Seen how it goes When pride gets loud One wrong glance Gets swallowed by crowd [Pre-Chorus] Muted horn cry Night turn slow If I step in They all know Keep that face still Keep that plan tight Step through the dark Like I own night [Chorus] Blue Note Shen Come again Blue Note Shen I don’t bend Cold on my name Warm on the horn Blue Note Shen I was born Blue Note Shen Come again Blue Note Shen I don’t bend [Bridge] Tell me who you trust When the room goes thin When the talk gets slick And the checks won’t spin I seen saints turn sour I seen wolves wear silk I keep one eye open Pouring out milk [Final Chorus] Blue Note Shen Come again Blue Note Shen I don’t bend Cold on my name Warm on the horn Blue Note Shen I was born Blue Note Shen Come again Blue Note Shen I don’t bend Blue Note Shen Till the end Blue Note Shen Yeah, that’s my name
