Lyrics Hand Me Down - The Wallflowers

Hand Me Down

You won’t ever amount to much
You won’t be anyone
Now tell me what you were thinking of,
How could you think you would be enough
It’s not that you have stayed too long
And it’s not that you’ve done something wrong
It’s not your fault
That you embarrass us all
You’re a hand me down
It’s better when you’re not around
You feel good and you look like you should
But you won’t ever make us proud
You’ve been used by an army of kings
You’ve been touched by the lips of a queen
Now we’ve all made good use of you
But you won’t be needed again
So why don’t you move and let someone else in And make some room for a new harlequin
'Cause you never know when
You’ll disappoint us again
You’re a hand me down
It’s better when you’re not around
You feel good and you look like you should
But you won’t ever make us proud
Now you’re a hand me down
It’s better when you’re not around
You feel good and look like you should
