Testo It's a Steal - Edwyn Collins
Testo della canzone It's a Steal (Edwyn Collins), tratta dall'album I'm Not Following You
The first two chords I chanced upon
Became the bedrock of this song
Don't ask me where it all went wrong
That's for you to sit and ponder upon
Sometimes I'm thinking to myself
Should've left my dreams upon the shelf
I don't want to reveal too much about how I feel
It's a steal
I built my dreams on a bed of nails
When the twilight fails I'll fall off the rails
I might end up on that railside verge
Where my conscience merged with a Celtic dirge
And the black cap sings at the crack of dawn
I'll be so far gone you won't hear me yawn
It's not as if my boots are down at heel
It's a steal
Ho hum, I might be dumb
But I can't compete with you old chum
I can't compete so I won't compete
'Cause of nerver graters in defeat
Sometimes I'm thinking to myself
It's down to me and no-one else
And then I fall to Earth and I get real
It's a steal
Ninety-nine U-pence is fine
But I draw the line at the one pound sign
I draw the line that I dare not cross
Where a rich man's gain is a poor man's loss
Where the outlaw gang in Lincoln Green
Work undercover for the queen
But it's just a yarn, it's not as if it's real
It's a steal
Sometimes I'm thinking to myself
Should've left my dreams upon the shelf
Tell me what you really want
Sometimes I'm thinking to myself
Should've left my dreams upon the shelf
Tell me what you really want
Sometimes I'm thinking to myself
Should've left my dreams upon the shelf
Tell me what you really want
The message is in the music
Tell me what you really want
Sometimes I'm thinking to myself
Should've left my dreams upon the shelf
Tell me what you really want
Tell me what you really want
Just sometimes
Tell me what you really want
Just sometimes
It's a steal
Tell me what you really want
Tell me what you really want
Tell me what you really want
Tell me what you really want
Tell me what you really want
Tell me what you really want
Tell me what you really want
Tell me what you really want
Tell me what you really want
