Lyrics
Vendelay
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.
But still a man of words
And no matter how untrue
I know garbage always hurts
I don't know nowadays
What it takes to get bewitched
For a person like me
Who's just starving to get ditched
Let's just hope that our ropes
Ain't so firmly fixed
And if you'd ask me i'd say:
- Nix, Vendelay
I know that life is very bad
When you're picking up the pieces
Of what you had
And people say:
I want you, i want you, i want you!
Yeah, they want you all right
- But just for a while
But hang on in there
And you'll pull it through
'Cause i believe in you, i do
And there's a reason why i do, Vendelay
