Settle for a Draw
[Spoken Intro]
One, two, three, four! (Roll that faster, man)
One, two, three, four!
(Oh, we gotta time that
The whole point of a count is that it's in time, innit?)
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

[Pre-Chorus]
And no one's gonna start a revolution
So we best leave it well alone
And there's something that Frankie used to say
Apparently

[Chorus]
Oh, he said, settle for the 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

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]
And no one's gonna start a revolution
So we best leave it well alone
And there's something that Frankie used to say
Apparently

[Chorus]
Oh, he said, settle for the 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 the draw
Why don't you settle for the draw?
