Lyrics The American and Florence / Nobody's Side

You wanna lose your only friend
Well keep it up you're doing fine
Why this humiliation
Why treat me like a fool
I've taken shit for seven years and I won't take it anymore
I'm only teasing Soviets with gentle bonhomie
And you've a better reason to be anti-them than me
There's a time and there's a place
Is this the girl who always said she wants to know the truth
There's a time and there's a place
I'd have thought you'd support any attack on these people
On the people who ran mindlessly over your childhood
Don't let them fool you for thirty years on
They're the same
They see chess as a war
Playing with pawns just like Poland
If you walk out on me they will have won their first battle
Wouldn't your father have begged you to stay in the game
He would but he didn't know you
He'd loathe your behaviour and so do I
Why'd you have to do this to me
What's going on around me is barely making sense
I need some explanations fast
I see my present partner in the imperfect tense and I don't see how we can last
I feel I need a change of cast
Maybe I'm on nobody's side and when he gives me reasons to justify each move they're getting harder to believe
I know this can't continue
I've still a lot to prove
There must be more
I could achieve
But I don't have the nerve to leave
Everybody's playing the game but nobody's rules are the same
Nobody's on nobody's side
Better learn to go it alone
Recognize you're out on your own
Nobody's on nobody's side
The one I should not think of keeps rolling through my mind and I don't want to let that go
No lover's ever faithful
No contract truly signed
There's nothing certain left to know
And how the cracks begin to show
Never make a promise or plan
Take a little love where you can
Nobody's on nobody's side
Never stay too long in your bed
Never lose your heart
Use your head
Nobody's on nobody's side
Never take a stranger's advice
Never let a friend fool you twice
Nobody's on nobody's side
Everybody's playing the game but nobody's rules are the same
Nobody's on nobody's side
Never leave a moment too soon
Never waste a hot afternoon
Nobody's on nobody's side
Never stay a minute too long
Don't forget the best will go wrong
Nobody's on nobody's side
Never ever be the man
Never be the first to believe
Never be the last to deceive to believe
Never be the last to deceive
Nobody's on nobody's side
Never make a promise or plan
Take a little love where you can
Nobody's on nobody's side
