The Maccabees Mary Lyrics

I was in the other room when handsome was getting leather and laces.
Couldn't save the family 'cos heroes wear masks and lycra.
Out, out, out, out, out Mary get out.
You're freezing.
In, in, in, in, in brother get in.
Or get your head kicked in.
'Cos it's in.
Down, down, down, down, down I heard you fell down.
And scraped your knee.
Up, up, up, up, up pick yourself up.
And get a plaster on your cut.
'Cos it's on and up.
You wish that it was you.
So you got yourself in a hole.
You can't get out.
I won't be there, I can't be around.
So hold me down.
I'll let you know.
'bout the places we can't go.
I won't let go and I won't hold you back.
When I'm falling away.
I've paid the price and I'm willing to pay.
So willing to pay the price you pay.
And the reason I can't stay.
'Cos you live so far away.
You wish that it was you.
So out Mary get out, you're freezing.
And in, brother get in.
