Spitting in the Wind - Badly Drawn Boy

I’ve been pissing in the wind

I chance a foolish grin

And dribbled on my chin

Now the ground shifts beneath my feet

The faces that I greet never know my name

Just give me something

I’ll take nothing

Just give me something

I’ll take nothing

Now the drought is crippled by the rain

That hammers on my pain

We lose ourselves again

But all we need

Is to find a place to look

Our worm is on its hook

A love which dangles free

Let’s watch it swim

Against the water’s flow

In doubt the courage grows

With no guarantee

Just give me something

I’ll take nothing

Just give me something

I’ll take nothing

And so it goes

A moral to the tale

As tortoise catches snail

A strong heart will prevail

It keeps on pumping

It still needs something

Just give it something

I’ll take nothing

Just give it something

To keep it pumping

And I’ll take nothing

Just give me something
