VERSE 1:
Live from the bottle and a ten deck
And here I stand, your great defender
And I speak the words that I wanna say
And purge the land of fake pretenders
Cos I wanna be the one you dream of
But you just don't say what you mean
Claim to be innocent and sin free
But no one's ever squeaky clean.
BRIDGE 1:
And I just gotta find a way, to be free
And I've met so many women
But you're the best one that I've ever tasted.
CHORUS:
And I would never, raise my fists, point the finger, speak against you now
It's not the way I spend my time
But you've been lying all day, crying all night
Tryna be free, but dying of fright
When all the time I know
That it's only for a show
But still I'm standing right here by your side
Think of me as your hero tonight.
VERSE 2:
The villain shouts his Yankie shite
The hero comes and plays the joker
The words you say, the moves you make
Well they will never win me over
And I cannot fly, and spread my wings
And I don't wear a suit of leather
But take my hand and let's make the most
Of this short time we have together.
BRIDGE 2:
And I just gotta fly away, through the trees
And I'll be just in time to save you
But it's 3am and I'm fucking wasted.
CHORUS
POST CHORUS:
I see you're wearing leather again, oh yeah
Cos now we're back together again
I'm gonna change my ways, change the way I live
From ten to twenty, cigarettes a day.
