[Verse 1 : Peter Doherty] No one can hold a light to your misery You’re the number one Being hard done Hard done by You’ll get by with your smile Wicked smile and laughing at the misfortune of others Yelling at your kids A can of bricks Laughing as they pick up sticks And old ladies walks on by Trip up as they cry
[Pre-Chorus : Peter Doherty] With all the battering it’s taken I’m surprised it’s still ticking Yeah with all the battering it’s taken I’m surprised it’s still ticking
[Chorus : Peter Doherty] Let’s get straight to the heart of the matter So glum, it’s all on a platter So what’s the matter, what’s the matter today?
[Verse 2 : Carl Barât] I am no stranger to the cause I carry them in my soul They scorch my flesh and leave great holes In the meaning of my life But I get by, I get by Just as crooked little smile You’ll get by, you’ll get by
[Pre-Chorus : Carl Barât & Peter Doherty] With all the battering it’s taken Well, I’m surprised it’s still ticking Yeah, with all the battering it has taken I’m surprised it’s still ticking Let’s get straight to the heart of the matter So glum, it’s all on a platter So what’s the matter, what’s the matter today? Oh let’s get straight to the heart of the matter Why so glum it’s all on the platter So what’s the matter tell me what’s the matter today?
[Verse 3 : Carl Barât] So hold a light to my misery But don’t send it up in flames It’s only I who take the blame But try me anyway And you’ll get by you’ll get by With your wicked little smile You’ll get by, you’ll get by with your wicked little
Ohhhh
[Pre-Chorus : Carl Barât & Peter Doherty] With the battering it’s taken I’m surprised that it’s still ticking Yeah with all the battering it’s taken I’m surprised it’s still ticking
[Chorus : Peter Doherty] Let’s get straight to the heart of the matter Oh why so glum, it’s all on a platter Oh what’s the matter, what’s the matter today? Let’s get straight to the heart of the matter Why so glum, it’s all on a platter Oh what’s the matter it's the glory hallelujah day Straight to the heart of the matter Why so glum, it’s all on a platter Oh what’s the matter, what’s the matter today? Let’s get straight!Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
