Yeasayer lyrics : "Ambling Alp"

Now kid I know I haven't been a perfect man
And I've avoided doing things I know I can
But if I've learned one thing to tattoo on my arm

Or burn into my thumb it would be that

You must stick up for yourself son

Never mind what anybody else done
Stick up for yourself son
Never mind what anybody else done


Oh Max Schmelling was a formidable foe
The Ambling Alp was too at least that's what I'm told

But if you learn one thing you've learned it well
In June you must give fascists hell
They'll run but they can't hide


You must stick up for yourself son
Never mind what anybody else done

Stick up for yourself son
Never mind what anybody else done
Stick up for yourself son

Never mind what anybody else done
Stick up for yourself son
Never mind what anybody else done


And when those thunder clouds are cryin
(in the skies, in the skies)

And when those fireflies keep shining,
(in your eyes, in your eyes)
Keep your mind on the time,

With your $$# on the line,
Keep your fleet feet sliding
(side, to the side)


Now the world can be an unfair place at times
But your lows will have their compliment of highs

And if anyone should cheat you
Take advantage of or beat you raise your head
And wear your wounds with pride


You must stick up for yourself son
Never mind what anybody else done

Stick up for yourself son
Never mind what anybody else done
Stick up for yourself son

Never mind what anybody else done
Stick up for yourself son
Never mind what anybody else done
