Brian Fallon - Her Majesty's Service Lyrics
She hates how much it rains
But it's rainin' all the time
She said, "I'd like to go home, I don't feel right in these clothes, and I might be losing my mind"
She said, "I'm always goin 'round, round and round in my head
I don't want to sleep alone, we ain't kids anymore, but the kids are all right, yeah"
And I've been at her majesty's pleasure
But I still haven't found a way to survive
And you say
"Don't you understand, I know what it's like to be a rolling stone?"
Haunted with heartbroken ghosts, and Elsie singin' "how does it feel?"
But oh, my Lily, if you only knew, I only want to be haunted by you
And I would crawl across the glass to bow at your feet in the service of the queen
She said, "I want to find a heart that breaks the same as mine
And I've been at her majesty's pleasure
But I still haven't found a way to survive
And you say
"Don't you understand, I know what it's like to be a rolling stone?"
Haunted with heartbroken ghosts, and Elsie singin' "how does it feel?"
But oh, my Lily, if you only knew, I only want to be haunted by you
And I would crawl across the glass to bow at your feet in the service of the queen
I'm always starting all over
I don't want to waste the nights in my life
But I never fit in, or felt home in my skin
I'm waiting on a big love baby...
And don't you understand, I know what it's like to be a rolling stone?
Haunted with heartbreaking ghosts, and you got Elsie singin' "how does it feel?"
But oh, my Lily, if you only knew! I only want to be haunted by you
And I would crawl across the glass to bow at your feet in the service of the queen
In the service of the queen...

Brian Fallon Her Majesty's Service Comments
Cool guy 😎 yes he is..🎵🎤🎼😁👍👏🙏✌️🎙️
How is this not mainstream
Dustin Weber because mainstream is crap. This is too good
the lost baby is the girl i wanted , i will need proof of life to prove it
Best record since Get Hurt!!
Still haven't finished the album. Get this far and think WOW, I have gotta listen to this again, ho back to track 1 and restart!
My favourite song on the new record. Can't wait to see him live next week 😁
I haven’t made it all the way through this record yet, but once I got this far, i decided that this album is the proper follow up to Elsie. Well done.
Old Man Joe Etta James is the missing link to Elsie, Incredible :)
Elsie my wife ,thats who it is referring to
THANK u Brian. Nothing more to say!
Stray Paper part 2. Also namedropping Lily from Among Other Foolish Things (which gets a sequel in Neptune) and Elsie from Horrible Crowes record. Love it
Brian has a habit of recycling certain lyrics and has no problem lifting lyrics from other artist songs. I've seem people complain about this but I find it pretty cool to be listening to a song and being reminded of a song and sometimes even someone you loved years ago.
In "Neptune" did you catch the reference to "Season in Hell" the missing recordings by a mythical New Jersey band in the movie Eddie And The Cruisers? a 1983 semi-flop with Music by John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band which was sort of decent for a b movie soundtrack.
I love this song! <3
Anyone else hear the similarities to This Time Tomorrow by The Kinks? Primarily the opening chords and the guitar line after Fallon sings the chorus.
jde5150. Spot on it is
Love the Davies boys
Thanks for pointing that out! Indeed spot in, good catch, now I know another cool song!
I posted just recently how I had robbed myself and wasted 10 years by just "discovering" Brian Fallon. a few months ago. Listening to this I can only thank the lord for not being late to the party when it comes to this record
Better late than never, friend. Finding music that feels this good tends to be worth the wait, anyhow.
In my life there has been a handful of albums that made feel like "just wow" as if they were going to actually change my view of life. Blood On The Tracks, Born to Run and now SleepWalkers
As we used to say during the time of vinyl, listen to them till the grooves wear out
My handful of vinyl albums that made me feel like that are the two you mention with "Ziggy Stardust", "Harvest", "Battle Born", "City To City", "Making Movies ................ the list could go on. My time of vinyl continues to this day . Have done up a few vintage turntables of late and regularly play my Record collection. This album may well join the list.
To borrow a line from one of Brians Heroes and great musician from jersey... this train carries saints and sinners, losers anc winners, whores and gamblers. This train, dream will not be thwarted and faith will be rewarded. Climb aboard.
Every time I listen to "Born to Run" I feel like I've come back Home to where my love affair of music started. When I listen to "The 59 Sound" I feel like someone finally understands my soul.
"But oh, my Lily, if you only knew, I only want to be haunted by you"
The same Lily from ''Among other foolish things''?
''Lily I don't know how to start this letter''
All that ''I got a picture of you on the dashboard, so I can feel like you're watching right over me"
Fkin love Brian, he brings it every time
AdzBrandMusic And in the lyric right before that he mentions Elsie, presumably of Horrible Crowes album fame...
Brian also mentions Lily in Neptune
7 singles at once Brian you are spoiling us man but thank you so much
rawr I'm a octopus lol I didn't even know where to start ..
I love that he also mentions Elsie.
This new stuff does sound a lot like Gaslight Anthem. But a little different. I always love how he weaves classic song lyrics into his own.
I am way to excited!!!!
yes yes yes
