Dirty Pretty Things - Gin & Milk Lyrics

Artist: Dirty Pretty Things

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Carl Barat, David Jonathan Hammond, Gary Powell, Anthony Rossomondo

I'm in to myself on uncertain terms
I put gin in my milk to kill all the germs
As I pray for the day that life will return
And I pray for myself but I never learn
No, I never learn

See, I really like you but I'm nothing like you
I try oh so hard but don't get so far
You get my respect but we don't connect
We're in it together so I'll love you forever
I love you forever

And so it rains on

No one gives a fuck about the values I would die for
Not the faceless civil servants, the rudimentary crack whore
No one gives two fucks about the values I would kill for
Give them something to die for, give me something to die for

You won't really see me, I live in old movies
Cloaked tightly in sin so they won't come in
It's like spying on cities through cracks in the floor
Thought I knew what the blag was but now I'm not sure
What do I know anymore?

And no one gives a fuck about the values I would die for
Not the basest civil servant, the rudimentary crack whore
And no one gives two fucks about the values I could kill for
Give them something to die for, give me something to die for

Still I'm into myself on uncertain terms
I put gin in my milk, it kills all the germs
As I pray for the day that life will return
And I pray for myself but I never learn
No, I'll never learn

No one gives a fuck about the values I would die for
Not the faceless civil servant, a rudimentary crack whore
No one gives two fucks about the values I would kill for
Give me something to die for, give me something to die for

No one's too perturbed about the things that I would cry for
I've been trying all my life until there's nothing left to try for
No one's too perturbed about the things that I would live for
Give me something to try for, give me something to try for
