Up Against The Wall

The Be Good Tanyas

Up against the wall

You don't stand so tall

Better run run run put your armor on again



She is 12 years old

Nothing she don't know

She says you're 32 but you wanna be 16



I know that you did not receive

What it was that you needed when you were

growing

But tell me what's the worth

You're repeating history verse by verse



What do you prove

No matter what you say I think you'll lose

you'll lose

You'll lose her



Up against the wall

You don't stand so tall

Better run run run put your armor on again



Isn't it time we recognized that we all live

such broken lives sometimes

And it's sad but true that you still carry so

much with you
