You're that stretch of the beach
That the tide doesn't reach
No meaning, no reason
The lonely season
That the tide doesn't reach
No meaning, no reason
The lonely season
Favourite lyric from World Peace
- Thread starter George the 23rd
- Start date
For me, the most affecting line on the record is in 'Mountjoy':
What those in power do to you
reminds us at a glance
how humans hate each others' guts
and show it, given a chance.
I think this line even more than the title track aptly expresses the theme Moz is going for.

I like that, too. He makes reference to that lyric in Autobiography about himself, "I'm that stretch of the beach that the sea never reaches." pg. 179/Penguin

This whole part of Mountjoy
A swagger hides the fear in here
By this rule we breathe
And there is no one upon this earth
whom I'd feel sad to leave
You see
We all lose
We all lose
What those in power do to you
Reminds us at a glance
How humans hate each others guts
And show it given the chance
We never say aloud the things
That we say in our prayers
'Cos no one cares
Many executed here
By the awful lawfully good
But the only thing that makes me cry
Is when I see the sky...

One Of Our Own
So give me the gun
I love you
A job half done
Isn't done...
A swagger hides the fear in here

And show it given the chance
We never say aloud the things

Never spotted that, good find.
I agree with those who have mentioned lyrics from Smiler and Mountjoy, those are the songs with the highest overall lyrical quality on the album. I didn't take to the music on those tracks instantly, but since first listening to World Peace exactly a month ago today they (like much of the album) have grown on me immensely.

'mountjoy'
it's not my favourite, but i think it's the most valuable.
for now my fav is 'wpinoyb'. it'll change with time, album is still young
p.s. apologies
