Lyrics
Certain People I Know
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I take the cue from
Certain people I know
I use the cue
And then I
Hand it on to you
And when I swing it
So, it catches his eye
(Weren't you there?
You'd have died!)
I trust the views of
Certain people I know
They look at danger
And they
Laugh their heads off
Their clothes are imitation
George the 23rd
(Don't you find this absurd?)
I'd hate to be like
Certain people I know
They break their necks
And can't afford to
Get them fixed
Ah, they'd sacrifice all
Of their principles for
Anything cashable
I do believe it's terrible
Oh, wo, wo
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Oh, wo, wo
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Oh, wo, wo
