The Beautiful South - Painting It Red

-------------------------------------

This is TBS last album, Painting It Red,
including the three songs that were later taken
out.

It took me some time because I was preoccupied,
sorry.

I believe it's mostly correct. I mentioned the
places where I felt it was not perfect.

If it's not understood, or you want the complete
lyrics e-mail me, and i'll send it to you.

Comments, corrections, compliments (yeah right)
or whatever: yshkedy@ort.org.il
