Start As We Mean To Go On by Thea Gilmore Lyrics

We’re gonna start by aiming higher
We gonna start by taking names
We’re gonna start some rumours, start some fires
And start to fan the flames
Cause that storm up there’s been twisting
That cloud looks set to break
And when trouble comes, we’ll start the drums
And leave them in our wake

We’re gonna start the camera rolling
We’re gonna start to write the songs
I’ve got these two good reasons here
Why I can’t get it wrong

We’re gonna set this record straight
We’re gonna do what must be done
And start as we mean to go on
Well, we came to the party late
But we’re staying here to see the sun
And start as we mean to go on
There's changes in the air right now
There's panic at the scene of the crime
They were sharpening claws behind closed doors
And they heard us calling time
So we'll start the meter running
We're gonna start to count the cost
To see what we're becoming
And not what has been lost

We’re gonna set this record straight
We’re gonna do what must be done
And start as we mean to go on
Well, we came to the party late
But we’re staying here to see the sun
And start as we mean to go on

We've gotta take the trouble
Take up space
Take that smile off his face
Talk the game
Talk in tongues
Take the bullet from the gun
Come on and start the band
Start back where we began

We’re gonna set this record straight
We’re gonna do what must be done
And start as we mean to go on
Well, we came to the party late
But we’re staying here to see the sun
And start as we mean to go on
