The Other Side Lyrics - Elastica

BBC Radio 1 Evening Session 08/08/96 

It's been really hard I know 

It's been really hard under fire 

So take a look at what this world's become 

You know I've really got to go right now, oh 

You've been polishing that gun too long 

It's seen no action since the war begun 

So take a look before you join the other side 

You know I've really got to go right now 

So strung out 

You see [that I] don't want to play this game 

I need your shoulder to cry on 

It's something I can rely on 

Don't want to live this way 

That's why I'm leaving this for you 

To Russia with love 

Oh, see you 

It's me 

We've [been] pushing it, it's like cold war 

The walking wounded from the night before 

So take a look before you join the other side 

You know I've really got to go right now 

I'll see you round 

You see [that I] don't want to play this game 

I need your shoulder to cry on 

It's something I can rely on 

Don't want to live this way 

That's why I'm leaving this for you 

To Russia with love 

[You] see I'm talking about you 

Don't want to fight without you 

Don't want to fight about it 

I'm just your [LOVER!]
