Only Anarchists Are Pretty Lyrics - Singles - The World / Inferno Friendship Society

If we should be arrested before we sleep 

I'll see you outside in a few days or in a few weeks 

And if you should be shot trying to escape 

I'll know that for the lie that's written on its face 

And if we don't live to be old and faint 

It will be because we got lazy and forgot to get away 

When we were young, you were the best thing going 

And I struggled mightily to keep my hands to myself 

Watching you strut down the street telling everyone to go to hell 

With a flash of the ankle, snarl of the lip 

I see you in the street and gasp 

A lot of gossip and glances, I'd had enough 

I grasped you gently by your arm and said, "Hey, I got a crush" 

You caught both my eyes and you gave me a push 

You said, "Hey, you got one back" 

And the room caved in 

With a flash of the ankle, snarl of the lip 

I see you in the street and gasp 

'Cause Only Anarchists Are 

Only Anarchists Are 

Only Anarchists Are Pretty 

After a lot of gossip and glances, your boyfriend got upset 

He punched me squarely in my snout and said, "Hey! You got a debt!" 

I turned my eyes into slits and I gave him a kick 

I said, "Hey! You want one back?" 

And the room caved in 

With a flash of the ankle, snarl of the lip 

I see you in the street and gasp 

'Cause Only Anarchists Are 

Only Anarchists Are 

Only Anarchists Are Pretty
