Paracetamol

Lyricist: Declan McKenna     Composer: Declan McKenna

There's a boy
Fifteen with a gun in his hand
And the people with no audience say should be hanged
They ask for his motive
But they don't understand
Why they love
Like they do
Like they do

There's a girl
Fifteen with her head in a noose
Because she's damned to live
Well she's damned to choose
And the animals walked in twos by twos
Showing love
Like they do
Like they do

There's a girl
Fifteen although she isn't sure
Well how the hell could you want anything more
Beautiful, perfect, immaculate whore
I'm in love
Love with you
Love with you

Oh won't you let me finish
You drive me insane
The world will keep on turning
Even if we're not the same
Don't come on to me, come on to me

There's a boy
Fifteen turning into a man
Well tell me one other thing that he can
While you forced a smile through a jealous hand
Showing love
Like you do
Like you do

There's a boy
Fifteen and he's attempted to sue
Cause he's definitely sure that it's true
What kind of man, kind of man are you
Showing love
Like you do
Like you do

Oh won't you let me finish
You drive me insane
The world will keep on turning
Even if we're not the same
Don't come on to me, come on to me

So tell me what's in your mind
So tell me what's in your mind
And don't forget your paracetamol smile
So tell me what's in your mind
So tell me what's in your mind
And don't forget your paracetamol smile
So tell me what's in your mind
So tell me what's in your mind
And don't forget your paracetamol smile
So tell me what's in your mind
So tell me what's in your mind
You're emotionally challenged

Why do you waste your talent
The world around you's manic
Do you have no shame
Come on to me, come on to me
