There was November in your eyes\\
There'd be no pennies for the guys\\
There were fireworks over London\\
But you weren't among them anymore\\
\\
When it got darker the nightmares came\\
I lit a sparkler to write your name\\
There were fireworks over London\\
You weren't among them anymore\\
\\
Because you're too beautiful\\
Gunpowder is louder that's all\\
\\
You should never play with fireworks\\
You might get your fingers burned\\
The blue touch paper brings a touch of violence\\
But you'll never learn\\
\\
Because you're too beautiful\\
Gunpowder is louder that's all\\
\\
Beautiful\\
That's what the fireworks are for\\
Yes, you're beautiful\\
You're so beautiful\\
Too beautiful for such an ugly world\\

Interestingly Jamie Wednesday, Les and Jim's pre-Carter incarnation also recorded a version of this song. The only real differences being the speed of the recording, Jim's accent being less accentuated on the original and all instrumentation on the original was live. Not sure what this song was originally called.\\
