Cole, Lloyd - James Lyrics
Ugly children with poor complexions and greasy hair
Receive no concessions
And it's a heartless world
And it's a thoughtless heartless world
Oh you're a terrible child
Hide yourself away
From furnished accommodation with a view and window seat
You swear she really is the best thing that you have ever seen
But your heart is in the wrong place
Cover your face and despair yourself away
Oh you're impossible, James
Hide yourself away
And it's a sin to be a saint
And you're impossible, James
And it's impossible to accept
That she's impossible
And as a consequence you lock yourself away
And it's a crime to be alive and be alone
And be content to be
Oh James
Oh you're a terrible child
Hide yourself away
And in the morning when you wake
Nothing will have changed

Cole, Lloyd James Comments
Great song ..Easy pieces brilliant album ..Rattlesnakes my fav
probably the best artist nouvelle vague haven't covered
just great no cover needed.just like morrissey the voice is what makes it
Morrissey has said "James" is Lloyd's Best song.
Absolutely. My favourite too.
The first 5 albums where great (even more then great) but then he got all introspective and ruined it...
It's a crime to be alone and be content to be. I had a T-shirt made with this line...
And it's a crime to be alive and be alone, and be content to be.
Have not listened to this for years but remembered the words.
Easily one of the most beautiful songs, lyrically & melodically.
The percussion is gentle perfection.
brilliant record...
This hauntingly evocative and melancholic song deserves more comments than none.
