Level 42 - Set Me Up текст песни

Well a thing was said to me

Times your enemy

It may heal a wound, but it wont hide a scar

And the only thing to do

Is to yourself be true

cause a head thats in the clouds wont see the stars

When I was young I never walked away

Id nail my colours to the wall

Though black and white soon turned to shades of grey

There is one thing that I really know for sure

Nobodys gonna set me up

Nobodys gonna set me up

Theres a bitterness in you

cause all you ever do

Is to drag your spirit screaming to the floor

But you gotta make your luck

Before your time is up

And they take you in your box out through the door

But Im not saying I dont care at all

Id rescue you before you drown

But if behind my back they start to talk

Im a tougher kind of man this time around

Nobodys gonna set me up

Nobodys gonna set me up

When you look back and see what you have done

Well was it really that much fun

To laugh and kick the fallen ones

Gonna grow another skin

This ones getting thin

Ive been bitten twice but never lost my nerve

Well you gotta hide the hurt

When people dish the dirt

cause if you dont try nothing thats what you deserve

There are people with their eyes of green

Smiling when you take a fall

Maybe a friend or someone never seen

But even with my back against the wall

Nobodys gonna set me up

Nobodys gonna set me up

People said to me

Times your enemy

It may heal a wound, but it wont hide a scar

Nobodys gonna set me up

Nobodys gonna set me up

And the only thing to do

Is to yourself be true

cause a head thats in the clouds wont see the stars
