THE VERVE
"BITTER SWEET SYMPHONY"
'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony
that's life...
Try to make ends meet, you're a slave
to the money then you die.
I'll take you down the only road I've
ever been down...
You know the one that takes you to the
places where all the veins meet, yeah.
No change, I can change
x3
But I'm here in my mould, I am here
in my mould.
But I'm a million different people
from one day to the next...
I can't change my mould, no, no, no...
Well I've never prayed,
But tonight I'm on my knees, yeah.
I need to hear some sounds that
recognise the pain in me, yeah.
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse
my mind, I feel free now.
But the airwaves are clean and there's
nobody singing to me now.
No change, I can change
x3
But I'm here in my mould, I am here
in my mould.
And I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mould, no, no, no...
Have you ever been down?
I can change, I can change...
'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony
this life.
Trying to make ends meet, try to find
somebody then you die.
You know I can change
x3
But I'm here in my mould, I am here
in my mould.
And I'm a million different people
from one day to the next.
I can't change my mould, no, no, no...
We've got ya sex and violence melody
and silence
(Have you ever been down)
(I'll take you down the only road I've
ever been down)
