Only Anarchists Are Pretty

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 tryin' to escape
I'll know that for the lie that's written on its face, well, alright

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 goin'
And I struggled mightily to keep my hands to myself
Watchin' you strut down the street tellin' 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

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, oh yeah

Only anarchists are
Only anarchists are
Only anarchists are lucky

Only anarchists are
Only anarchists are
Only anarchists are pretty

Only anarchists are
Only anarchists are
Only anarchists are pretty

Only anarchists are
Only anarchists are
Only anarchists are pretty

With a flash of the ankle (only anarchists are pretty), snarl of the lip (only anarchists are)
I see you in the street and gasp, yeah (only anarchists are pretty)

Flash of the ankle (only anarchists are pretty), snarl of the lip (only anarchists are)
I see you in the street and gasp, yeah (only anarchists are pretty)

Only anarchists are
Only anarchists are
Only anarchists are pretty
