Italy showed that beauty can thrive in chaos. And as ever with @wearejames, no matter what obstacles appear, they somehow always get away with it. https://t.co/39vJzrboYB

It's a shock to my system
To wind up back where I have come from
It's a crime in my child's eyes
To find out life is in my mind

We messed up. This song and 5-0 should’ve been on the last James collection😬🙄

CAN NOT WAIT

See the Jean Genie on his high wire act
At the back of his mind lies a suicide pact
Poor old Johnny Yen
Set himself on fire again

Sometimes think I must be dead
Nothing’s real about the life I’ve led
Life’s a dream I know it’s been said
My dreams are all crazy
Love life
Love life
Love life
Love life
I’m a lover who loves life
Love the shadow and love the night
Guess you can’t tell

Daniel drinks his weight
Drinks like Richard Burton
Dance like John Travolta now
Daniel's saving Grace
She was all but drowning
Now they live like dolphins

Rafael Casarrubias Garcia and Sandra Prates asked about death, and how that figures in Tim's creative process...

There's a high wire act on the telephone wire
Another Buddhist monk has set himself on fire
There's a fakir outside being buried alive
Maria's mad aunt has yet to arrive
A bear that dances
And a frog with wings
A bear in a tutu that just loves to sing

It's my shout
This wine is melting the bounds
Between good taste
And what I might say
Matador
Swing your blood red cape
Ole Ole
I was born an asshole

Thought I gave it up for Lent
Burning all my bridges down
Sailors dream of home
Husbands the open road
Some unwritten law
Keeps me burning all my bridges down
Mermaids on the rocks
If I knew what I was getting myself into
I wouldn’t have dared
If I knew what I was getting myself into
I wouldn’t have fled

@Hairbear64 @tonywelsh71 @StuartMcGowan I was very fortunate with my Mum – not so much with my dad.

So sorry to hear your in pain - much love to you🙏

This baggage on my shoulders
Making me stoop, bending my frame
My neck is crocked lopsided
I will never be tall again
At night she goes walking around her old home
You can feel so much sadness locked up in her bones
I can feel so much sadness locked up in her bones
Walking my ghost

@RealTimBooth

[Tim Booth @RealTimBooth]

@tonywelsh71 @StuartMcGowan So much love to you Tony. All of this is the testimony to your love. Wear it with pride and a deep gratitude that you have had this love. Be patient with your grief, it will have its own timeline 🩵

for accepting that lot
in the cheapest graves
🙄😂😂

[TimBoothLyricADay @BoothLyric]

Old wives
Mystic hearsay
Wise men
Rich men
Shaman and Sage
When you’re meek on the Earth
When you die you will pay
For accepting that lot
In the cheapest of grace
The sex is divided
Men mustn’t be weak
Sensitivity is a vice
Of which he shan’t speak

Following its festival premiere at SXSW London, we've taken a spoiler-free look at the official @wearejames documentary - an entertaining, revealing and deeply human portrait of a band that have spent more than 40 years doing things their own way. https://t.co/Ka8rBQcr0o
