Mary
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 was in the other room
When handsome was getting leather and laces
Couldn't save a family
Cause heroes wear masks
And lycra
Out, out, out, out, out,
Mary get out
You're freezing
In, in, in, in, brother get in
Get your head kicked in
In, in, in, in
Cause it's in, in, in, in, in
Down down down down down
Heard you fell down
And you scraped your knee
Up up up up
Keep yourself up
And get a plaster on the cut
Cause it's sewn up
And it's sewn
You wish that it was you
You wish that it was you
You wish that it was you
So you've got yourself in a hole
And you can't get out
I won't be there
I can't be around
So hold me down
I'll let you know
About the places we can't go
I won't let go, I won't hold you back
And I'm falling away
I've paid the price
And I'm willing to pay
So willing to pay the price you pay
And the reason I can't stay
Cause you live so far away
You wish that it was you
You wish that it was you
You wish that it was you
You wish that it was you
You wish that it was you
You wish that it was you
So out, out, out, out, out, mary get out
Cause you're freezing
And in in, in, in, in, brother get in
Brother get in
Brother get in
Brother get in
