English Beat All Out To Get You

Songwriters: Charlery, Roger; Cox, Andy; Steele, David; Morton, Everett; Wakeling, David Frederick;

Don't attempt to explain this incredible strain
Now confusion's become far too simple a word for it
Is what you make, that's the usual mistake
If you're happy with pain you can take it from me

That they're all out to get you
They're painting your life in a permanent gray
They're all out to get you
It takes more than tears to get rid of the stains sometimes

You're scared you might slip when you're holding a knife
Lose your fingers or more in a lathe on the night shift
You're scared that your babies get born with no legs
You're so scared of death, you don't know what life is

So they're all out to get you, all over nothing
They're painting your life in a permanent way
They're all out to get you, but all out forgetting
It takes more than tears to get rid of the stains sometimes

So they're all out to get you, all over nothing
They're painting your life in a permanent way
They're all out to get you, but all out forgetting
It takes more than tears to get rid of the stains sometimes

Until you accept that you're just like the others
You're a boy or a girl, then a man or a woman
And your clothes never fit and your skin's the wrong color
So you make do with fear, you get more than you need

'Cause they're all out to get you, all over nothing
They're painting your life in a permanent way
They're all out to get you, but all out forgetting
It takes more than tears to get rid of the stains sometimes

Yes, they're all out to get you, all over nothing
They're painting your life in a permanent gray
They're all out to get you, but all out for getting
It takes more than tears to get rid of the stains sometimes

It takes more than tears, it takes more than tears
It takes more than tears to get rid of the stains
