Sympathy For The Martyr Lyrics

Sympathy For The Martyr lyrics

You just can’t relax and you can’t rely

On anyone for anything

So you make your complaints

And all everyone’s let you down

You just can’t ever win



Convinced there’s a war and it’s always

Everybody versus you

(Ba bada dada dada)

Convinced that your critics are watching

And you’ve always got something

You’ve always got something to prove



So tie the noose

And raise the cross

The martyr’s arrived

A desperate plea

For sympathy, it’s all you need



A laundry list of problems doesn’t make you interesting

And never getting help doesn’t make you brave

Not listening to reason doesn’t mean that you have faith

You’re just cutting off your nose to spite your face



So tie the noose

And raise the cross

The martyr’s arrived

A desperate plea

For sympathy, it’s all you need



And you want it all

(Ba bada dada dada)

Ba bada dada dada

You want it, you want it all

Ba bada dada dada

Ba bada dada dada

You want it, you want it all



You want it all



[You want it, you want it all

Ba bada dada dada

Ba bada dada dada] (x 8)



You want it, you want it all
