Lyrics
Abusing Words
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.
Standing there like some Jehovah's Witness
Giving me a sermon reject reject
Pointing your fingers and abusing words
Someone somewhere please take this person away from me
How can you know what I'm feeling
How can you see what I'm seeing
I think maybe we need a little air in this room
One of us is going to win
And the other better be prepared to lose
As long as we understand I don't see any problems
It all seems straightforward
I'll use you and you can take from me
Stephen's a fine upstanding lad
With a firm hand in moral guidance reject reject
But he treats me like an idiot sometimes
And sometimes I deserve it
But how can he know what I'm feeling
And how can he see what I'm seeing
I think maybe we need a little humour in this room
One of us is going to win
And the other better be prepared to lose
As long as we understand I don't see any problems
It all seems so reasonable
I'll use you and you can take from me
