Courteeners, The - De La Salle Lyrics






I wonder if the De La Salle brothers got papped
And did their Holy Mothers and jealous Fathers ever feel trapped?
Did Mary like all the attention?
And did Jesus ever get detention?

I wonder if Caesar ever did his sums
And did Joan of Arc ever slip and slice her thumbs, chopping onions in double Home economics?
And would Archimedes have liked electronics?

Panic stations don't set in, don't worry if you're not getting
The reward, that you think you deserve
Good things come to those who wait, god knows I've waited patiently
Take a ticket, there's a seat here next to me

The number 17 and Steve McQueen
Seem an unlikely combination considering his elevation,
to Hollywood god and all-round blonde Adonis
I can't see him settling down in Heaton Norris

Would Elvis have been able to adapt?
Would he have gone to court over reports his phone was tapped?
Would Priscilla remain and reside by his side,
with the lonely loyalty of being his bride?

Panic stations don't set in, don't worry if you're not getting
The reward, that you think you deserve
Good things come to those who wait, god knows I've waited patiently
Take a ticket, there's a seat here next to me

Panic stations don't set in, don't worry if you're not getting
The reward, that you think you deserve
Good things come to those who wait, god knows I've waited patiently
Take a ticket, there's a seat here next to me

  6. i.... ....

    I find the Courteeners average but really like this tune.

  7. T.... L....

    Sounds a bit like Half the World Away...

    T.... L....

    Tallulah Lawksley no...

  8. R.... B....

    I've just been bought two tickets to the courteeners at Liverpool echo arena 18th of November for my bday what I'm trying to say is I've got two tickets for the courteeners for sale at Liverpool echo arena 18th

  9. J.... S....

    Personally think this is a great song. Can't wait to see Courteeners in Bristol on the 14th

  10. B.... P....

    Listen to the album a few times now and apart from the 3 tracks put out before the ablum dropped, this is easily the best. Got a smiths vibe to it which is never a bad thing. Courteeners are class

  11. s.... ....

    and did Jesus ever get detention?

    s.... ....

    Or did he just have to do a whole load of lines like: I must not offend my Dad or I'll be for it.

  12. L.... S....

    lyrically brilliant

  13. M.... J....

    Where is the bassist

    M.... J....

    Yeah where the fuck is Cups - it's not been the same on stage since he got the elbow. Those funky fresh dance steps while plucking his bass strings - sadly missed.

    M.... J....

    'they' royally fucked him over didn't they. liked the lad as well, and through it all he still left with class. Top lad, but deserved better. They've produced some shite since he went anyway, might have been a blessing. This is ace though.

  14. J.... E....

    this is big.

  15. 1.... ....

    Fantastic sing a long..classic courteeners

  16. M.... ....

    Not feeling this one ne

  17. C.... C....

    fucking otherworldly, Fray's morrissey moment

    C.... C....

    morrisey certainly comes to mind when you listen to the lyrics - great song: fray bakes another one from his Middletonian crack

  18. M.... J....

    Oh yessssssssssss

  19. M.... A....

    lyrics please
