I, I thought you were just being negative Andy, it's such a lonely fight Don't make it any harder than it might be
Andy, keeping the injuries slight Your nights alone must sink like stone Without a star to guide You're not the kind that in ten years' time Will have won more to your side Andy your bratty kid abrasion's The charm that gets you by You can lay the blame and place the names But you, you can't play ignorant a second time Andy, it's such a lonely fight Don't make it any harder than it might be Andy, keeping the injuries slight Andy, oh, it's such a lonely fight Don't make it any harder than it might be Andy, keeping the injuries slight Keeping the injuries slight Keeping the injuries slight Keeping the injuries slight
