Stereophonics formed in 1992 and was originally known as "Tragic Love Company," taking one word from each member's favourite band. The band first consisted of Kelly Jones (vocals/guitar and songwriter), Richard Jones (bass), and Stuart Cable (drums). Cable was fired by the other two members of the band in September 2003, and the band replaced him on the road with the former drummer for The Black Crowes, Steve Gorman. After a decade's worth of studio albums (4 number 1's) the band scored its first number 1 single with Dakota, the first single of their fifth album . The recording of this album demanded the inclusion of a new drummer, Argentinian-Venezuelan Javier Weyler.

Mr. Writer Lyrics

Stereophonics

You line em up, forgot your shoes
Your own names on your wall, and you should have known
You fly around in planes that bring you down
To meet me, who loves you, let me crash into the ground
Are you surrounded, you dont even know me
Would you like to stone me?
Mr. writer...
Why dont you tell it like it is
Why dont you tell it like it really is
Before you go on home
I used to treat you right, give you my time
But when I turn my back on you, then you do what you do
Youve just enough on my own view, education to perform
Id like to shoot you on
And when you go home with you on your own
What do you really do?
Mr. writer...
Why dont you tell it like it is
Why dont you tell it like it really is
Before you go on home
And when you go home with you on your own
What do you even know?
Mr. writer...
Why dont you tell it like it is
Why dont you tell it like it really is
Before you go on home
Mr. writer...
Why dont you tell it like it really is
Why dont you tell it like it always is
Before you go on home
Mr. writer...
Wont you tell it like it really is
Why dont you tell it like it always is
Before you go on home...
