Leave It Out
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.
It ain't safe to walk out tonight
There's always someone ready to start a fight
What did I do? What did I say?
And did I look at you, the wrong way?
I don't know what's going on
But instead of having fun, you're gonna spoil the night
So don't you tell me that you're sorry
And don't you tell me it's all good
Leave it leave it leave it out
If you're coming in for trouble then you know you're going out
Leave it leave it leave it out
What's the point of acting big just because there's a crowd
Stinking breath, and blood on your hands
Another guilty feeling comes as you wake up
What did you do? What did you say?
And would you act the same the next day?
So don't you tell me that you're sorry
And don't you tell me it's all good
Leave it leave it leave it out
If you're coming in for trouble then you know you're going out
Leave it leave it leave it out
What's the point of acting big just because there's a crowd
It ain't safe to go out tonight
There's always someone ready to start a fight
What did I do? What did I say?
And did I look at you, the wrong way?
So don't you tell me that you're sorry
And don't you tell me it's all good
Leave it leave it leave it out
If you're coming in for trouble then you know you're going out
Leave it leave it leave it out
What's the point of acting big just because there's a crowd
Leave it leave it leave it out
If you're coming in for trouble then you know you're going out
Leave it leave it leave it out
What's the point of acting big just because there's a crowd
