Lyrics
[Intro]
One, two, three, four
One, two, three, four
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
[PreChorus]
And no one's gonna start a revolution
So we best leave it well alone
And there's something that Frankie used to say
[Chorus]
Apparently, oh, he says, settle for a 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
[PreChorus]
And no one's gonna start a revolution
So we best leave it well alone
And there's something that Frankie used to say
[Chorus]
Apparently, oh, he said, settle for a 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 a draw
Why don't you settle for a draw?
