lyrics

(the christening)

He rang me on a Sunday, very serious, very quiet
He said there was a man by the door who was not right
He said he got his mother to go over and just talk
He said he didn't do a song because there wasn't one

At the christening (the christening)
Nine years old, the christening
Working the room, the christening
The christening

At the christening, christening, at the christening
He found the saddest man in a room of eighty people
At the christening, christening, at the christening
And he did the only thing available to a boy

I have been doing this for ten years with a full band
and four hundred people and a fourth song aimed like a rifle.
He did it with his mother and a paper cup. Same job. Same result.

At the christening, christening, at the christening
He found the saddest man in a room of eighty people
At the christening, christening, at the christening
And he did the only thing available to a boy

(the christening...)
