I, I swung for Judas And Judas, Judas, he swung for me An audience gathered by the old arcade machine To watch our fight roll out into the street We all make mistakes Some of which wrap themselves Around brittle hearts Like sellotape I, I swung for Judas And Judas, Judas, he swung for me My bare knee shot through a hole in my ripped jeans
It was an old kung-fu move an old friend once taught me at university We all make mistakes Some of which take their toll And smash hearts to bits Like a wrecking ball We all make mistakes Some of which we can't forget Some of which drag us down Like a shipwreck I swung for Judas
