lyrics

(her name)

Eleven years and forty thousand people
And a room above a pub with eleven in
The sound guy and his girlfriend and a dog
And she clapped between every single song

Her name, her name (her name)
We never got her name, her name
Eleven years, her name
Her name

Her name, her name, her name, her name
The woman who started all of this, her name
Her name, her name, her name, her name
If you're out there, come to Leeds, her name

(crowd chant, no instruments)
We put it on the ticket page last month. A note. A plea.
Somebody wrote in. Said it was her mum. Said she died in March.
Her name was Denise. It was Denise. It was always Denise.
(BAND CRASHES IN)

Her name, her name, her name, her name
The woman who started all of this, her name
Her name, her name, her name, her name
Denise, Denise, Denise, Denise

(Denise!)
