The Wildhearts - Putting It On lyrics

Did you listen to your mother? To your sister or your brothers? Were you there for one another? Not putting it on Just a lack of conversation Only adds to the frustration Never reach a destination Stop putting it on Stop putting it on Another pride thing for me to swallow Mind games bringing me down Another time spent, waste it tomorrow Make sense; put your feet on the ground You gotta Stop – burning up inside Stop – look around, decide Stop – don't be kidding yourself Stop (stop) – and think (think) And stop (stop) – and think (think) Did you listen to your mother? To your sister or your brothers? Were you there for one another? Not putting it on Just a lack of conversation Only adds to the frustration Never reach a destination Stop putting it on Stop putting it on You been downsized too many times You'd better wake up and see the divide And if the breakdown leaves you alone It ain't the first time been trouble at home You gotta Stop – burning up inside Stop – look around, decide Stop – don't be kidding yourself Stop (stop) – and think (think) And stop (stop) – and think (think) Did you listen to your mother? To your sister or your brothers? Were you there for one another? Not putting it on Just a lack of conversation Only adds to the frustration Never reach a destination Stop putting it on See me eating my heart See the whole thing falling apart Everything you learned at the start Are the things that tore you apart We'd better leave it We'd better leave it We'd better leave it Did you listen to your mother? To your sister or your brothers? Were you there for one another? Not putting it on Just a lack of conversation Only adds to the frustration Never reach a destination Stop putting it on Did you listen to your mother? To your sister or your brothers? Were you there for one another? Not putting it on Just a lack of conversation Only adds to the frustration Never reach a destination Stop putting it on Stop putting it on
