Accordion Song - The Maccabees

You’ve got discomfort on your skin and it’s conquered you

Discontent down your spine has got you beat

I’ve seen you dance, laugh and sing with no sense of abandon

And when you go

You’ll make sure it’s slow so people know

I’ve seen you, you show it

I’ve seen you, you shown it

You’ve got discomfort on your skin and it’s conquered you

Discontent down your spine has got you beat

I’ve seen you dance, laugh and sing with no sense of abandon

'Cause then when you go

You’ll make sure it’s slow so people know

I’ve seen you, you show it

I’ve seen you, you shown it

You’ve got no sense of abandon

'Cause I’ve seen you, you show it

I’ve been watching you waste it away

'Cause it shows in your smile

No one can tell you what’s best for you

So play dead, embrace your feet

You’ve been taught to sing but you can’t buy abandon

Don’t forget to strive

You should never deprive yourself of pride

I’ve seen you, you show it

I’ve seen you, you show it
