Big Strong Man

You were born into the land of signet rings and summer houses Me, into the province of the personalised number plate Oh how thrilling it must be to have money but no taste Safe behind the electronic gates You were raised with the relentless extraversion of evangelicals Taught that you’re uncredited if you’re not centre stage Thеn they took away your God And let the floodlights blеach your face A shivering understudy giving sermons in your place And you, will never love me And that’s okay Think of all the energy I’ll save Praying to a god, I made up just to Prove I can Fuck everything and think like a big strong man Oh sweet darling, do you ever shut up? You know I hate it when you interrupt Let’s go out on the town, your search is through You’ve finally found a girl who’s smarter than you -will never love me And that’s okay Think of all the energy i’ll save Praying to a god, i made up just to Prove I can Fuck everything and think like a big strong man And when i play you this song Here’s what you’ll say ‘I love the breakdown in the middle eight’ And you’ll ignore that strange pulsating thing I tore out from my chest You don’t see me rip my heart out All you see is ugly red I guess that’s what artists do Wish I could be a big strong man like you Never never, never be good enough Never never, I’ll never be good enough Never never, I’ll never be good enough Never never, I’ll never be good enough
