Letra The ballad of st.Fred Kevin Devine

The ballad of st.Fred

came into this world as a reject
eyes in your sea, size of the flames
dwelling on the past that's burning in my brain
everyone that burns has to learn from the pain
i think about the day the girl ran away
the day the fellas came to play
now she's stuck
with a friend she fucked
like a sucker with a lump in my throat
like a chump, like a chump, like a chump, hey like a chump....

should i be feeling bad?
should i be feeling good?
its kinda sad i'm the laughing stock of my neighbourhood
you think i'd be moving on
but i'm a sucker like i said
fucked up in the head
maybe she made a mistake
and i should just give her a break
either way my heart'll ache
so what the hell do you want me to say
i won't lie, that i can't deny
i did it all, so you can take thatand stick it up your yeah?

and why did i wait so long
why did it take so long to figure it out, that i didn't
so long to figure it out, that i didn't
i'm the only one under the sun, didn't get it
i can't believe that i'd be deceived

ohh like a chump, like a chump, like a chump, hey like a chump...
and i did it all
so you can take that
and stick your up your yeah?
oooooooooooh
