Will To Lose by The Bevis Frond Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1988

Mister Blues, he came last week
Heard him tapping on the window
At first I thought Jehovah's hailstones
But then I peeked between the blinds to see him standing there
Even though I live on the seventeenth floor of some politician's cruel economy

Then he said you, you look like the kind of guy
The kind of inconclusive waste of space that we can use
You, you've got just the right approach
You've got this all-consuming, overpowering will to lose

And so I followed with him across the rooftops
To some long-abandoned [еffex batman?] factory
And he introduced mе to the family
They seemed quite impressed with the way I always look at the black side of things

And they said you, you look like the kind of guy
The kind of inconclusive waste of space that we can use
And you, you've got just the right approach
You've got this all-consuming, overpowering will to lose
Then his sister grabbed my hand
And took me to what must have been the boardroom
In those far-off days of eagle and the farmer
And she said I love you
And so as not to hurt my new-found friends
I married her the very next day

And she said you, you look like the kind of guy
The kind of inconclusive waste of space that we could use
You, you've got just the right approach
You've got this all-consuming, overpowering will to lose
