Oh, to get ahead in this world
Takes a lot of kind words
And ruthless damning actions
And I hope I never have to hurt you
Though I gladly will do my friend
And I'll be reading in the kitchen
Sipping lazy cups of tea, I won't be
Brooding in my bedroom with the
Shutters down on me
And this song is not cathartic
Because I've done nothing wrong
It's just a song, it's just a song
verse 2
Ah, you see the more you're trying
The more I know you're lying
The more I start to hate the sight of
you-oo-oo-oo-oo Well tell me what would you do?
Pulled by both arms, nearly torn in two
And I'll be reading in the kitchen
Sipping lazy cups of tea, I won't be
Crying in my bedroom with the
Covers over me
And this song is not cathartic
Because I've done nothing wrong
It's just a song, it's just a song
And I'll be reading in the kitchen
Sipping lazy cups of tea, I won't be
Brooding in my bedroom with the
Shutters down on me
And this song is not cathartic
Because I've done nothing wrong
It's just a song, it's just a song
It's just a song, it's just a song
