Nellie McKay - Beneath The Underdog lyrics

Your rating:



Come on, come on, let's try and make it

You tell yourself, this time for sure

But I would rather sit and crave it

I'm not wanted anymore



I had a kind of friend in you

It wasn't pleasant all the time

But though my heart is jaded

I think winnin' is overrated



Lookin' through frosted windows

I envy the soft contented sighs

But I don't get people

I don't get the things they think are reasonable



So you'll find me

Here right beneath the underdog

When life's impossible

Hold tight beneath the underdog

That's where I'm comfortable



And I know I'm a fool, perhaps

I rationalize what I can't have

But no, here right beneath the underdog

That's where I'd rather be



Maybe someday I will see

A kind of personality

Who makes the world better



And when that happens I may find

I miss the nervous daily grind

It's hard to stand this peace of mind

It's truly finer on the outside

Ooh, the outside



I've conquered mountains, so to speak

And looked down from a higher peak

But it seems so creepy

When it can leave you feelin' sleazy



So settin' off from this hill camp

I'd rather be her little tramp

My own companion

Or maybe with one whose tail is waggin'



So you'll find us

Here right beneath the underdog

When life's impossible

Hold tight beneath the underdog

That's where I'm comfortable



And I know I'm a fool, perhaps

And rationalize what I can't have

But no, here right beneath the underdog

That's where I'd rather be



I'd rather be

I'd rather be
