Homewrecker! Lyrics
Jarvis Cocker
Lyrics
A homewrecker stalks the streets of this city
Avoiding the issue, still trying to believe
He's the Biggest, the Strongest, the Fittest, the Longest
And his wife and his kids are asleep.
Oh, here comes the homewrecker
(Homewrecker)
Going down with all hands tonight. Yeah.
Here comes the homewrecker
(Homewrecker)
What a tragic waste of life.
And don't you know?
(And don't you know?)
You're just like everybody else.
And don't you know?
(And don't you know?)
Everyone fails, or they fall,
let you down, one and all,
everyone, yesirree: Everybody except me.
Oh, here comes the homewrecker
(Homewrecker)
Going down with all hands tonight.
Yeah, here comes the homewrecker
(Homewrecker)
What a tragic waste of life.
And don't you know?
(And don't you know?)
You're just like everybody else.
And don't you know?
(And don't you know?)
Oh, they all sell out in the end,
All grow up and drop their friends,
face the facts, knuckle down,
capitulate, scrape and bow
Everybody, everyone, alles Menschen, tout le monde,
Everybody, yesirree: Everybody,
Everybody,
Everybody,
Everybody except me.
