Description | This is a song called “Settle For A Draw” which is a phrase that my granddad used to say about when you’re arguing with women, ‘cause he said “Settle for a draw, son, ‘cause you’re not gonna win” - Alex Turner |
Lyrics | [Spoken Intro] One, two, three, four! (Roll that faster, man) One, two, three, four! (Oh, we gotta time that The whole point of a count is that it's in time, innit?) One, two, three, four! [Verse 1] Well, I watch you tangle every weekend It might start different but it ends up the same One minute, you're casually speaking The next it all goes up and you pour fuel on the flame With your jerrycan of words and tones [Pre-Chorus] And no one's gonna start a revolution So we best leave it well alone And there's something that Frankie used to say Apparently [Chorus] Oh, he said, settle for the draw Well, you're not gonna get no more So you should settle for a draw I told you once I'm sure, I told you once I'm sure You should settle for a draw Why don't you settle for a draw? [Verse 2] Well, you're right, it is one set of rules for her And then another set for you But that's just the way it is, I suppose And there's nowt you can do And let's not fall in the trap of answering back I am just a beginner but she'll be the only winner That's for sure, so take the draw, if it's available And if it sets on fire Don't get out your jerrycan of words and... tones [Instrumental Break] You might also like[Pre-Chorus] And no one's gonna start a revolution So we best leave it well alone And there's something that Frankie used to say Apparently [Chorus] Oh, he said, settle for the draw Well, you're not gonna get no more So you should settle for the draw I told you once I'm sure, I told you once I'm sure You should settle for the draw Why don't you settle for the draw? |
