tender – tainted lyrics
[intro]
sound is all around us, everywhere
[refrain]
i’ve noticed there’s little faith anymore
but can you blame us?
[verse 1]
we’re all gutter fighters
waste deep, sewers overflow
blood and smoke on the radio
it’s all good news
when you know, you know
[verse 2]
hiding out in your ivory tower
cheap thrills and endless power
lives to devour, hour by hour
when there’s no-one else left to offend
tell yourself and try to pretend
it’s you, it’s only you
[chorus]
oh, can you look me in the face
and tell me i’m not good enough to be in your place
i don’t deserve the time, can’t get the sp-ce
can’t scream any louder
tainted by worth and power
worth and power
can you
can you
can you do the right thing?
[refrain]
i’ve noticed there’s little faith anymore
but can you blame us?
[verse 3]
we’ll hold our breath and take the plunge
a mounting debt, we count on some
one with a little wealth to spare
pull us from our helpless prayer
step up from your leather chair
a throne from which war is declared, oh
all of us so
all of us so soon
all of us so
all of us so soon
[chorus]
oh, can you look me in the face
and tell me i’m not good enough to be in your place
i don’t deserve the time, can’t get the sp-ce
can’t scream any louder
tainted by worth and power
worth and power
[chorus]
look me in the face
and tell me i’m not good enough to be in your place
i don’t deserve the time, can’t get the sp-ce
can’t scream any louder
tainted by worth and power
worth and power
[instrumental]
[chorus]
oh, can you look me in the face
and tell me i’m not good enough to be in your place
i don’t deserve the time, can’t get the sp-ce
can’t scream any louder
tainted by worth and power
worth and power
[outro]
can you
can you
can you do the right thing?
