Ambition Lyrics

Stepping out onto the stage the smalltown star tonight

Flexes out for fame and fortune into the lights

The way she tears into the heart makes me realise

That I never understood hatred until I looked into those eyes

She cries, "No one's going to talk down to me again

No one's ever going to patronise me again

I'm going to get out of this town, steal myself a crown

I'm going to get myself some power

If it's the last thing that I do"

Heading out of Bradford with a ticket on the train

And a faith as hard as steel and as sharp as any pain

Gets pictures in the papers smiling oh so good

While she lies in bed with racing dreams hot as blood

Because love will make you happy and love will keep you warm

And love will build a cushion to keep you safe from harmNew Model Army - Ambition - http://motolyrics.com/new-model-army/ambition-lyrics.html

But hate will drive you onwards, hate will drive you upwards

Till you can get back all the bastards

Who ever tried to put you down

And when she's gone forever, please don't lay her down to rest

In a quiet little churchyard along with all the rest

Throw a great big party to remember that she lived

Give her headlines on the TV to remember who she is

'Cause no one's ever going to talk down to her again

No one's ever going to patronise her again

She's going to get out of this town, steal herself a crown

She's going to get herself some power

If it's the last thing that she does

If it's the one thing that she does

If it's the only thing that she ever does
