Kicking The Balustrade

(album: You Am I - 2010)

Despite the best intentions
The intervention didn't go as planned
Oh, he won't linger long, but
He will grip your shoulder as you
Plead
Ooh
He's so far down
He's too far down

He's good for the small impressions
Greetings, farewells, for better lunging [?]
But he'll slip your whispers
Just like a paper cut stays loose
As real estate soothes
Ooh
He's too far down

To be uptight
Is the privilege of an opulent mind
The kids as free
As the ink trickling down on the sheet
As the sweat trickling down in your sleep
As the trash flowing down in your street
Oh

Despite the best intentions
The intervention will not go as planned
To suppose a suit I'm posing
An open mind was falling for our
Greed
Ooh
He's too far down

To be uptight
Is the privilege of an opulent mind
The kids as free
As the ink trickling down on the sheet
As the sweat trickling down in your sleep
As the trash flowing down in your street

You've just been betrayed by love
Will you always be conveyed by love
You've just been betrayed by love
Will you always be conveyed by love
You've just been betrayed by love
Will you always be conveyed by love
You've just been betrayed by love
Will you always be conveyed by love
You've just been betrayed by love
Will you always be conveyed by love
You've just been betrayed by love
Will you always be conveyed by love
