Stand Up Tragedy The Fratellis

[Verse 1]
Pardon me sugar I’m the man underneath your thumb
But I won’t take your violence and I won’t chew your bubblegum
White heat, indiscreet, any day now obsolete
Though you’ve seen your best days
I would still walk down your empty street
Well you look like salvation but you taste like a refugee
Well you say you got no soul but you look like you do to me

[Chorus]
If I was the melody you were the symphony
Honey loving you took the very best of me
I don’t need your red wine covered sympathy
Just another punch line in your stand up tragedy

[Verse 2]
Well I’ve been pushing up daisies
Just to catch a glimpse of something real
When I see you coming
I might just as well give up and kneel
Well if you saw me broken
Would you put me out my misery?
Well I don’t do handsome and you don’t do sympathy

[Chorus]
If I was the melody you were the symphony
Honey loving you took the very best of me
I don’t need your red wine covered sympathy
Just another punchline in your stand up tragedy
