The Maccabees - WW1 Portraits lyrics

Just so beautiful inside out more colourful
Fair hair tied back casual
A go-getter, go-getter
You’re the best of all you’ve seen it four
Five hundred times on repeat
You’re like a leftover better
Than a ribbon-tied treat
Narrow roads, never limit
Never temper your speed
And when the river froze solid
You’re still swimming upstream
You’d hold your own in the presence
Of pauper and a king
Leave a singing bird silent
Make a hummingbird sing
You are a rope-a doper coming back queen
They all want you so bad, of course they do
Just so beautiful, just so beautiful

You break your back for the mission
Because you know where you stand
You live your life to a letter writ
On the back of your hand
The way you move, you float
Never know where you land
Give a five star rating if
You know that you can
You are a rose-tinted underground fail
You are a red arrow fighter jet trail
You are the best of both
Feel I know you so well
And I lay here beside you and I’m golden now
And I'm golden now and I'm golden now
And I'm golden now
And I lay here beside you, I feel golden now
And I'm golden now and I'm golden now
And I'm golden now
And I lay here beside you, and I'm golden now
