Fratellis, The - The Gutterati? Lyrics

Send "The Gutterati?" Ringtone to Cell Phone

Well I was chasing down flies and shooting up women 
Trying to get the whole thing straight in my head 
Lookin for a girl who’d come with me swimming 
And come and play tunes at the end of my bed 

And all the hardmen were drinkin down petrol 
Bamming up the girls when in came the law 
Heading for the door and getting tongue tied 
When they asked me what exactly I saw 

Chorus: 
So I’ll get some Monte Christo’s 
And we can all go see the band 
Well I may not be a looker yeah 
But I’ll help you any way I can 

Back at my room I was making me nervous 
Watching TV and picking my feet 
Wishing I was pretty and burning my shoes 
And wishing for once I’d kept the receipt 

I called myself and wondered out loud 
Tried to get the whole thing straight in my head 
I left the tape running and played it back 
Twice but I couldn’t make sense of what I had said 

Chorus 

Bridge: 
Well it may not make you handsome 
And it may not even make you feel aliiiiiiive 
You may not have the ransom 
But you can always count on this 
It’s him and them and she and me 
And sick and muddy, everybody 

Alt Chorus: 
So you can bring your wasters banjo 
Bring yer sister and her friend Diane 
Well I may not have a big boys pistol 
But I’ll help them any way I can 

Alt Chorus 2: 
And you can call me Cinderella! 
You can make me your best man 
Well you may be a right old queen 
But I’ll help you any way I can
