Mess at Best
If I told you now
That we're burning through the atmosphere
The plane is going down
Are they the words you really want to hear?
And if there's any doubt
Any question or whatever
We could ever work it out
Just forget it, let it disappear
Cos we're a mess, a mess at best
You gave your half and I gave less
And so I guess we don't add up to much
We took the vows but failed the test
We're undersexed and overdressed
Our arms outstretched came close but never touched
We're a mess
You could see from space, oh the car crash of our love affair
All twisted out of shape
And in the wreckage we're just lying there
But if we both climbed out
Making reasons to believe that
We should try and ride this out
Well lets forget it, we ain't got a prayer
Cos we're a mess, a mess at best
You gave your half and I gave less
And so I guess we don't add up to much
We took the vows but failed the test
We're undersexed and overdressed
Our arms outstretched came close but never touched
We're a mess
We're a mess
So young and dumb
In doubt and debt
And drowning in our discontent
Yeah through the crowd I lost you in the crush
Cos we're a mess a mess at best
No words to say in our defence
We both know that we never did enough
Yeah we're a mess, a mess at best
You gave your half and I gave less
And so I guess we don't add up to much
We took the vows but failed the test
We're undersexed and overdressed
Our arms outstretched came close but never touched
Yeah we're a mess, a mess at best
And so I guess we don't add up to much
That we're burning through the atmosphere
The plane is going down
Are they the words you really want to hear?
And if there's any doubt
Any question or whatever
We could ever work it out
Just forget it, let it disappear
Cos we're a mess, a mess at best
You gave your half and I gave less
And so I guess we don't add up to much
We took the vows but failed the test
We're undersexed and overdressed
Our arms outstretched came close but never touched
We're a mess
You could see from space, oh the car crash of our love affair
All twisted out of shape
And in the wreckage we're just lying there
But if we both climbed out
Making reasons to believe that
We should try and ride this out
Well lets forget it, we ain't got a prayer
Cos we're a mess, a mess at best
You gave your half and I gave less
And so I guess we don't add up to much
We took the vows but failed the test
We're undersexed and overdressed
Our arms outstretched came close but never touched
We're a mess
We're a mess
So young and dumb
In doubt and debt
And drowning in our discontent
Yeah through the crowd I lost you in the crush
Cos we're a mess a mess at best
No words to say in our defence
We both know that we never did enough
Yeah we're a mess, a mess at best
You gave your half and I gave less
And so I guess we don't add up to much
We took the vows but failed the test
We're undersexed and overdressed
Our arms outstretched came close but never touched
Yeah we're a mess, a mess at best
And so I guess we don't add up to much
