Beautiful south lyric on side of riverside pub.

Does anyone know why part of the lyrics to let love speak up itself are on side of riverside pub.

[Guest]

I didn't realise it was a Beautiful South lyric.

It is called 'Let Love Speak Up Itself'

Let Love Speak Up Itself

The Beautiful South

Don't whisper love and dream of wedding bells

Don't do all the talking, let love speak up itself

Let love speak up itself

So when you feel a little tatty and unhappy with your face

Let it breathe into us and put you back in place

Let it breathe, let it breathe

From the day it came into us till the day it wants to leave

For it will, it will go

And it will not say goodbye just like it didn't say hello

There will not be a send-off, a funeral or mass

Just a pathetic little vodka from a dirty little glass

'To the world's greatest mum

From the oldest swinger in town'

Let love speak up itself

Let love speak up itself

Let it rise up in the morning and take us for that walk

Let it do the talking when we're too tired to talk

A bloke bought it and put it on the side of his house then asked his girlfriend to marry him with it in the background.She said no so he got rid of the sign. Pub bought it. True story.

I like the Beautiful South; they did a handful of truly great songs.

I have always considered it an eyesore, when I first saw it I thought "What the hell is that monstrosity?" - and still do, every time I walk past it (which is when I go into town)...

 

I can understand why she broke up with him when she saw the sign....

I had already put that in my question.

At least that solved that question, was wondering when we passed the other day.
