Madness - Rise And Fall Lyrics






These are the streets I used to walk
On summer nights, sit out and talk
That's the house where I used to live
I remember what I would give.

This is the town I won't forget
And after anger there's nothing left
Walking now round and round
Familiar sights are open ground.

Being here again
I can recall
Forgotten moments
The rise and fall.

We used to live where children play
They leave their homes a mile away
To come and stand in trees and grass
Where we once walked the memories last.

Being here again
I can recall
Forgotten moments
The rise and fall.

The sun shines east, the sun shines west
But I know where the sun shines best
Casey street in the afternoon
Once again it's over too soon.

Being here again
I can recall
Forgotten moments
The rise and fall.

Being here again
I can recall
Forgotten moments
The rise and fall.

Rise
(Rise)
(Rise)

Rise and fall
Rise and fall
...

Madness Rise And Fall Comments
  1. n.... k....

    Amazing that these lads were making great music at such a young age, they were great musicians, I really loved them, I'm lucky to have experienced them.

  2. o.... ....

    what an opeing song for an album

  3. B.... D....

    How can we go back to these happy days. Kids don’t know what they have now days they really missed out on the music

  4. D.... N....

    I remember buying this album when it came out, but I can't remember where I bought it? It's a great bit of Madness history, and quite a dark album. Thanks Nutty Girl.

  5. L.... R....

    Great to hear them play this live in Notts last night

  6. k.... d....

    au collège avec le club chorale on chante ca mais c plus joli quand c nous

  7. s.... R....

    One of the best British bands ever extremely unique and different style of music and dress sense like Kate Bush Madonna and Prince and micheal Jackson we will never see anything like this again

  8. D.... ....

    Such an underrated album which I thought was their best

  9. P.... ....

    Written by Suggs about Liverpool and his childhood days

    P.... ....

    PEC2528 Liverpool? Are you sure thought he always lived in London.

    P.... ....

    he lived in London, nw5 or nw1 I can't remember, in Casey street that's why it says that in this somg

  10. V.... ....

    The lead-off title track and an underrated tune that doesn't get as much credit as it deserves.

  11. T.... K....

    the memories :D

  12. G.... B....

    maturity album, when you both look forward and back

  13. Z.... F....

    The rise & fall is an 80s masterpiece of an album. I loved it in 1982 and still love it in 2016. Blue skinned beast is brilliant. It should have been a single instead of Tomorrow's just another day in my opinion.

    Z.... F....

    Completely forgot about the Blue-Skinned Beast!

  14. i.... ....

    Still love it...

  15. A.... F....

    The Joy of that Nutty sound thanks for uploading this my dear

    I've been a madness fan since I was old enough to reliase what music was (so roughly when I was 8 in 1990) now 31 and still can't get enough of these guys

    H.... ....

    You was at the age of 8 you was old enough to realise what music was, Is that a joke??

    So when you was 5 you never heard songs on the radio, Saw music videos on TV.....Come on now you must of

    I was 3 when I was old enough to know what music was and dance around the house , One of the first was The Reflex- Duran Duran

    H.... ....

    Classy comment mikey.

    H.... ....

    @PrinceBuster5 well what else can I say to that, I mean one of my first memories of music was when I was 3 + half and I was scared of the Wild Boys video from Duran Duran- Would look out from side of sofa lol

    H.... ....

    mikey p

    Maybe he meant appreciated music, I didn't until I was 14 (I'm 15 now) because modern stuff you hear on radio is awful, then I found madness - now I appreciate it nore

  24. C.... M....
