Three Chairs on the Linoleum
Style: Ceilidh jig

[Verse 1]
Three plastic chairs scrape the floor
Nobody's washing anymore
Just us and the hum of the machines
And you laughing loud by the door

[Pre-chorus]
Bring out the cake, bring out the noise
Pull up a chair, make some room
Something is coming, hold onto your poise

[Chorus]
Denise, Denise, light up the room
Sweeter than fleece, warm as June
Raise every glass, call out the toast
Denise, we're singing for you

[Verse 2]
Somebody's brought balloons in a sack
Tied to the coin machine round the back
The kettle won't work but who cares tonight
We came here for you, not the snacks

[Pre-chorus]
Bring out the cake, bring out the noise
Pull up a chair, make some room
Something is coming, hold onto your poise

[Chorus]
Denise, Denise, light up the room
Sweeter than fleece, warm as June
Raise every glass, call out the toast
Denise, we're singing for you

[Bridge]
However far this year has spun
However hard the road's begun
You made this cold room feel like home
And that's a thing that can't be undone

[Chorus]
Denise, Denise, light up the room
Sweeter than fleece, warm as June
Raise every glass, call out the toast
Denise, we're singing for you

[Outro]
Three chairs still stand where we left them
Waiting for you to come home again
