You can't take the strain, the worries, they have wore on you
But it's alright to blame, you have every right to
Mother, will they press, press on you to take the slack?
'Cause he's your trouble now
There's no sneaking out through the cracks - Oh...
Matty, there's no excuse for thinking the world's gonna turn for you
But I say, if no one's looking, then it's okay
The giving and the take, the straw that broke the camel's back
We were in the way of an old man's broken past
While he longed for the old, life stuck him deep in the brand new
Oh, he knew
Matty, there's no excuse for thinking the world's gonna turn for you
But I say, hey! If no one's looking, then it's okay
Oh, we'll work this out, we'll work it out
We'll work this out
Life has a funny way of taking everything
And leaving nothing
Matty, there's no excuse for thinking the world's gonna turn for you
But I say, if no one's looking, then it's okay - Oh!
Matty, there's no excuse for thinking the world's gonna turn for you
But I say, hey! If no one's looking, then it's okay
Matty, there's no excuse for thinking the world's gonna turn for you
But I say, hey, I love you anyway
