Dirty Pretty Things - Deadwood lyrics
[Dirty Pretty Things - Deadwood lyrics]
You got the world, boy, this all you make it?
You had the choice, lad, you wouldn't take it
The oldest charm, only the best for you
And the years of my life
Some they were so good
But now and again, I feel I was a coward
Are the holes in my soul in
Tatters for all these tears?
Well, you don't see it that way
A way, a way, we'll have it today
The dancing ones, they really mean it
But something, boy, something's gonna change
A way, a way, you've got it, they say
But how do they know when
They've never seen it?
And what will you do when
They forget your name?
Well, you'll up and get another one
Don't give me that face, I know when I should
Live in disgrace, not dig up the deadwood
I knew this place was never the place for me
And of the years that rolled by, yeah
Some were so good
But now I know that you were the coward
The holes in your soul in
Tatters for all these years
But, you can't see it that way
A way, a way, we'll have it today
The dancing ones, they really mean it
And mark my words, something's gonna change
A way, a way, you've got it, they say
But how do they know when
They've never seen it?
And what will you do when
They forget your name?
Well, you'll up and get another one
A way, a way, we'll have it today
The dancing ones, they really mean it
And something, boy, something's gonna change
A way, a way, you've got it, they say
But how do they know when
They've never seen it?
And what will you do when
They forget your name?
Well, you'll up and get another one
You had the choice, lad, you wouldn't take it
The oldest charm, only the best for you
And the years of my life
Some they were so good
But now and again, I feel I was a coward
Are the holes in my soul in
Tatters for all these tears?
Well, you don't see it that way
A way, a way, we'll have it today
The dancing ones, they really mean it
But something, boy, something's gonna change
A way, a way, you've got it, they say
But how do they know when
They've never seen it?
And what will you do when
They forget your name?
Well, you'll up and get another one
Don't give me that face, I know when I should
Live in disgrace, not dig up the deadwood
I knew this place was never the place for me
And of the years that rolled by, yeah
Some were so good
But now I know that you were the coward
The holes in your soul in
Tatters for all these years
But, you can't see it that way
A way, a way, we'll have it today
The dancing ones, they really mean it
And mark my words, something's gonna change
A way, a way, you've got it, they say
But how do they know when
They've never seen it?
And what will you do when
They forget your name?
Well, you'll up and get another one
A way, a way, we'll have it today
The dancing ones, they really mean it
And something, boy, something's gonna change
A way, a way, you've got it, they say
But how do they know when

And what will you do when
