Lyrics Maximo Park – I’ll Be Around

I will not use the work «snake» in a song
In an allegorical way
I will attempt to articulate what’s wrong
Even if there’s not much to say

So what should I say?
So what should I say?

I’ll be around
Don’t think that I won’t, no
‘Cause I’ll be around
I’ll be around
Don’t think that I won’t, no
‘Cause I’ll be around

I will not use the work «leech» in a song
In a metaphorical way
But when the system is rigged to aid the strong
It leaves me in a terrible way

So what should I say?
So what should I say?

I’ll be around
Don’t think that I won’t, no
‘Cause I’ll be around
I’ll be around
Don’t think that I won’t, no
‘Cause I’ll be around

When the times get tough
Where the government is out of touch
You know that I will
I’ll be around for you
When the times get tough
When you think you’ve had enough

I feel for you
Bound by the limitations
No help for you
Those are the implications

I’ll be around
Don’t think that I won’t, no
‘Cause I’ll be around
I’ll be around, I’ll be around for you
Don’t think that I won’t, no
‘Cause I’ll be around

When the times get tough
(I’ll be around)
With a the government is out of touch
You know that I will
I’ll be around for you
When the times get tough
(I’ll be around)
When you think you’ve had enough
You know that I will
I’ll be around for you
