Beautiful South

I was handed down the looks of a man with a broken nose
That's the way our family was I suppose
But at least you gave me deeply profound
As we lay and chattered late upon the cricket ground
You didn'd have to love me
Where others got rid
You didn't have to treat me like a very good friend
But I'm glad you did
I'm glad that you did
One thing I never said to you
And one thing I never can
Amongst the false applause and the deafening cheers
I'm you No. 1 fan
I'm you No. 1 fan
I'm the richly blessed daughter of a mother with tatooed arms
That's the way my family life, life was charmed
But at least it gave me a mental grace
And a thought at the pit of my mind and a smile on my face
You didn't have to listen
To a word that I'd said
You didn't have to tell me all those silly old jokes
For every tear that I shed
Every tear that I shed
'Cos one thing I never said to you
And one thing I never can
Amongst the false applause and the deafening cheers
I'm you No. 1 fan
I'm you No. 1 fan
I was handed down a bike with a crooked old wheel
But I rode it on a million lanes the way that you made me feel
But at least we thought about it so long and so hard
As we sat upon our mother in the graveyard
And you don't have to listen
To a word in this song
You picture hangs the same and in the same old place
Even though that you've gone
Even though that you've gone
'Cos one thing I never said to you
And one thing I never can
Amongst the false applause and the deafening cheers
I'm you No. 1 fan
I'm you No. 1 fan
Yes I am
I'm your No. 1 fan
