The Delgados - Sucrose lyrics

Take a short, take a short change Taking time, time to rearrange Slow me down, slow me down; it's good Hit it far, hit it far you could Take another shortcut Figure out the place to be What's another foul up When you're getting words for free? What's the world, what's the world gone? Over up, over up shown (?) Get in line, be in time, stop Show me what, show me whatcha got Have you ever earned it? Pleasantries in trade for thought? What's another setup? Elevate from what you're not So, so Shut up Take emotion You're satisfied when I have tried No one has it all inside So, shut up No one's watching Take on board what you have scored Second chances find you floored Stop sitting on the fence Not furious, suspense Quick, call up to the scene (?) Sit quietly, obscene Never could forgive it Falling for the other side Never could admit it Falling for forgotten pride So, so Shut up Take emotion You're satisfied when I have tried No one has it all inside So, shut up No one's watching Take on board what you have scored Second chances find you floored They go to school Insubstantial in for fools Joining them and they're no fun Watching favours overturn Fortune is as fortune does Line up, line up without us We'll take your chances, take the game Take it, take it
