The Patience Of A Saint
Getting Away With It
Disappointed

The Patience Of A Saint

(Sumner/Marr/Tennant/Lowe)

Talking of my attributes
The things I do so well
As anyone who's in cahoots
With me will readily tell
I've lived up here
I've been down there
I've bought so I could sell
And if I drove a faster car
I'd drive it bloody well
How could I change?
I live without restraint

And I would try the patience of a saint
And I would try the patience of a saint

Thinking of my attitudes
Talking one-on-one
I may disagree with you
But look where you've come from
And all that you've got
I thought that I would faint

But I would try the patience of a saint
And I would try the patience of a saint
I would try the patience of a saint

I'm talking to myself (I'm talking to myself)
Talking to myself (myself myself)
I'm talking to the one that I know best
I'm talking to the one that I know best

Bury me with gratitude
You can't go to hell
Why should I care?
I'd rather watch drying paint

But I would try the patience of a saint
And I would try the patience of a saint
I would try the patience of a saint

And I would try the patience
Of a saint

Getting Away With It

(Sumner/Marr/Tennant)

I've been walking in the rain
Just to get wet on purpose
I've been forcing myself
Not to forget just to feel worse
I've been getting away with it all my life
(Getting away)

However I look, it's clear to see
That I love you more than you love me
However I look, it's clear to see:
I love you more than you love me

I hate that mirror
It makes me feel so worthless
I'm an original sinner
But when I'm with you I couldn't care less
I've been getting away with it all my life
Getting away with it
All my life
(Getting away)

However I look, it's clear to see
That I love you more than you love me
However I look, it's clear to see:
I love you more than you love me
I love you more than you love me
More than you love me

I thought I gave up falling in love
A long, long time ago
I guess I like it, but I can't tell you
You shouldn't really know
And it's been true all my life
Yes, it's been true all my life

I've been talking to myself
Just to suggest that I'm selfish
(Getting ahead)
I've been trying to impress
That more is less, and I'm repressed
(I should do what he said)

However I look, it's clear to see:
I love you more than you love me
However I look, it's clear to see:
I love you more than you love me
I love you more than you love me
I love you more than you love me

Get away with it
Get away with it

Disappointed

(Sumner/Marr/Tennant)

(Aaaah aaaah ooooh
aaaah aaaah aaaah)

Now, my head is spinning
At the back of my mind
I think I'm winning
I was somebody falling
For one who was not
Somebody tired of dreaming
Now it's already dawning
That this time I've got
Someone who won't leave me feeling...

Disappointed, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointed, or
Disenchanted, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointed at all

Listen, as you call my name
Just one syllable said
Then spoken once again
From the sound of your voice
The promise you make
You're somebody I can believe in
Someone who won't leave me feeling...

Disappointed, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointed, or
Disenchanted, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointed at all

At the back of my head
I believe what you said
Dreaming

Disappointed, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointed, or
Disenchanted, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointed at all

(Aaaah aaaah aaaah ooooh
aaaah aaaah aaaah ooooh)
Disappointed
(Aaaah aaaah ooooh)
