Píseň: It Takes Blood And Guts To Be This Cool

Interpret:
Skunk Anansie
Album:
Paranoid & Sunburnt
Save me from critical acclaim 
Save my smile its' too cracked from fame 
Wish me well with my fantasy 
Feel my arrogance with your sanity 


Wash me oh so painfully clean 
Disect my words with a fist full of your dreams 
Build me up and strike me down please 
Sign my name, sign my name 


It takes blood and guts to be this cool 
But I'm still, just a cliche 
It takes blood and guts to be this cool 
But I'm still, just a cliche 
Just a cliche, just a cliche 
Just a cliche, just a cliche 


Colour my views in red, white and blue 
I'm wide awake now, wide awake now 
I kiss you, I kiss you, but I'm falling down 
And all my friends are crowding around 


They're crowding around looking down to see 
But all they can see is me, me, me 
So blow me away now, with your screwed up mind 
There's no charm left now, for you to find 


It takes blood and guts to be this cool 
But I'm still, just a cliche 
It takes blood and guts to be this cool 
But I'm still, just a cliche 
Just a cliche, just a cliche 
Just a cliche, just a cliche 


I see you, you see me 
And who the hell am I supposed to be 
I don't care now but I know that I should 
Wasting away like you knew I would 


It takes blood and guts to be this cool 
But I'm still, still 
It takes blood and guts to be this cool 
But I'm still, still 
It takes blood and guts to be this cool 
But I'm still, just a cliche 
Just a cliche, just a cliche 
Just a cliche, just a cliche
