The Lyrics

I wrote these lyrics just for you
They're atrocious, yes it's true
I wrote these lyrics just for you
That's why they rip off
Placebo too
And I say, f*** you
And I say, f*** you

I wrote these lyrics for Peru
For all the Peru-ish things you do
For all the times you made us laugh
For all the times you made us barf
And I say
Hey Peru
Thanks Peru
Hey Peru

I asked some friends about this song
Tried to find where I was wrong
Is it too short, a bit too long?
Is the language a little strong?
And I ask
What is so wrong?
What is so wrong?
What is so wrong?
This is.

I asked the band about the words
Said they were the worst they'd ever heard
Should be locked up
Talk to the birds
Until my desire to write was cured
But I don't care what they say
I'll compose anyway
I'll compose anyway
Anyway

I wrote these lyrics just for you
They're atrocious, yes it's true
I wrote these lyrics just for you
That's why they rip off
Placebo too
And I say, f*** you
And I say, f*** you.
