Rescue You Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Back to back and sideways round
We're good to go
Pound for pound
Yeah I know, you're a joke

[Verse 2]
Next to me you look quite red
If I wasn't here
I'd be left for dead
Yeah I know, you're a joke

[Bridge]
Circumstance is killing me
Compromise is hard to see

[Chorus]
Oh won't you look at me now
Unholy cow
I hate the way it goes
It's more or less
We're second best
Don't fly into the snow
Who's gonna rescue you?

[Verse 3]
Back to back and sideways round
We're good to go
Pound for pound
Yeah I know, you're a joke

[Bridge Repeat]

[Chorus Repeat]

[Chorus Outro]
I wouldn't mind
Would you honey
Let me go-o-o

[Chorus Repeat]

[Chorus Outro Repeat]
