Everyone's Telling Me I've Got It Wrong

 


Everyone's Telling Me I've Got It Wrong

Written by Scott Wainwright


Boil that beetroot and pickle it fast

Pour that coffee now, into that flask

We'll see the sun going down

We'll see that moon taken down


Take my hand now and come along with me

Sew my new blues jeans, there's a hole at the knee

We'll see the sun going down

We'll see that moon taken down


(Chorus)

Because everyone's telling me

I've got it wrong

Trying to push me

To the floor

But they've been telling me

Far too long

They ain't gonna tell me

Nothing no more



Pack up that picnic there's ants in the jam

They're all over the cheese, they're carrying off the ham

We'll see the sun going down

We'll see that moon taken down


Roll up the blanket and start the car

Like three wise men, we'll follow that star

We'll see the sun coming down

We'll see that moon taken down


(Chorus)

Because everyone's telling me

I've got it wrong

Trying to push me

To the floor

But they've been telling me

Far too long

They ain't gonna tell me

Anything no more
