Lyrics Mary - The Maccabees

Mary

I was in the other room
When handsome was getting leather
And laces
Couldn’t save a family
Cos heroes wear masks
And lycra
Out, out, out, out, out, Mary, get out
You’re freezing
In, in, in, in, in, brother, get in
And get your head kicked in, in, in, in, in
Cos it’s in, in, in, in, in
Down, down, down, down, down, I heard you fell down
And you scraped your knee
Up, up, up, up, up, pick yourself up
You get a plaster
On your cut
Cos it’s on, on, on, and up
On, on, on, and up
You wish that it was you
You wish that it was you
You wish that it was you
So you got yourself in a hole
You can’t get out
I won’t be there, can’t be around
So hold me down
I’ll let you know
'Bout the places we can’t go
I won’t let go and I won’t hold you back
When I’m falling away
I’ve paid the price and I’m willing to pay
So willing to pay
The price that you pay
And the reason I can’t stay
Cos you live so far away
You wish that it was you
You wish that it was you
You wish that it was you
You wish that it was you
You wish that it was you
You wish that it was you
So out, out, out, out, Mary, get out
Cos you’re freezing
And in, in, in, in, Brother, get in
Brother, get in
Brother, get in
Brother, get in
