Taylor Square - Lyrics - Weddings Parties Anything

Weddings Parties Anything were an Australian folk rock band formed in 1984 in Melbourne and continuing until 1999. Their name came from The Clash song and musicologist Billy Pinnell described their first album as the best Australian rock debut since Skyhooks' Living in the '70s.

I just saw somebody down in Taylor Square, Looking awful, feeling bad in Taylor Square. And you know that I, I just walked on by, I did not even try, I said, there but for the grace of God go I. (Chorus) Down in Taylor Square, Down in Taylor Square. I just saw some mother's son in Taylor Square, Too drunk to walk or run in Taylor Square. And you know that I, I just walked on by, I did not even try. I said, there but for the grace of God go I. Then somebody's brother put the bite on me, For the price of a bottle of fortified wine, Would I hold the sympathy. He looked at me as I walked y, Summed me up, knew my size. He said, there but for the grace of God go I.
