You Me vs. the World by Barenaked Ladies Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If I was stuck inside a burning building
I'd wanna be there with you
The final seconds of a thrilling ending
Know we'd Macguyver it through
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause when I'm with you
I've got no need to be afraid
Despite what they do
You know we always get away
Throw us in any compromised position
Stand back and watch what we do
[Chorus]
It's you and me against the world
There's no white flags when you're my girl
It's you and me against the world
And it won't stand a chance
No matter what the circumstance
[Verse 2]
If I was blown out of the airlock with you
Into the vacuum of space
A gravity assisted slingshot
We'd do an interstellar embrace
[Pre-Chorus]
So bring on the fire swamp
We're never giving up
I'll be your Westley
You'll be my Buttercup
[Chorus]
It's you and me against the world
There's no white flags when you're my girl
It's you and me against the world
And it won't stand a chance
No matter what the circumstance
[Bridge]
The world looks in our eyes
Can't help but realize
This is not a fight it's gonna win
It's throwing in the towel and giving in
[Chorus]
It's you and me against the world
There's no white flags when you're my girl
It's you and me against the world
There's no white flags when you're my girl
Just you and me against the world
You and me against the world
And it won't stand a chance
No matter what the circumstance
If I was stuck inside a burning building
I'd wanna be there with you
The final seconds of a thrilling ending
Know we'd Macguyver it through
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause when I'm with you
I've got no need to be afraid
Despite what they do
You know we always get away
Throw us in any compromised position
Stand back and watch what we do
[Chorus]
It's you and me against the world
There's no white flags when you're my girl
It's you and me against the world
And it won't stand a chance
No matter what the circumstance
[Verse 2]
If I was blown out of the airlock with you
Into the vacuum of space
A gravity assisted slingshot
We'd do an interstellar embrace
[Pre-Chorus]
So bring on the fire swamp
We're never giving up
I'll be your Westley
You'll be my Buttercup
[Chorus]
It's you and me against the world
There's no white flags when you're my girl
It's you and me against the world
And it won't stand a chance
No matter what the circumstance
[Bridge]
The world looks in our eyes
Can't help but realize
This is not a fight it's gonna win
It's throwing in the towel and giving in
[Chorus]
It's you and me against the world
There's no white flags when you're my girl
It's you and me against the world
There's no white flags when you're my girl
Just you and me against the world
You and me against the world
And it won't stand a chance
No matter what the circumstance
