A little bitter 

A little sweet 

That's how I like my life to be 

I'll take it neat 

Bitter sweet 

That's how I see the world 



I like the rain 

I like the dark 

I like the mornings in the park 

The summer heat 

Bitter sweet 

That's how I see the world 



Oh let's go 

Let's go 

To paradise, Jack 

Paradise, Jack 

Let's go 

Let's go 

To paradise, Jack 

Paradise, Jack 



I got the sorrow 

I got the smile 

I got a box under the stars 

Shoes on my feet 

Bitter sweet 

That's how I see the world. 



I got the joke 

I got the twist 

I got a lazy afternoon 

I'm a man over the moon 

Man of the world 



Oh let's go 

Let's go 

To paradise, Jack 

Paradise, Jack 

Let's go 

Let's go 

To paradise, Jack 

Paradise, Jack 



Chain me to a tree 

Watch me 

I'll set myself free 

Escape from situations 

Houdini would be proud of me 

I'll lie around like Byron 

And write verses to the moon 

I'm the crime and I'm the siren 

I'm a fighter in the ring of life 



I've got the medals 

I've got the scars 

I've got a pocket full of hope 

I got the beat 

Bitter sweet 

That's how I see the world 



And the moon is in my head 

The moon is in my head 

The moon is in my head  









    



You, unbelievably small 

Bang your hands on the wall 

Say "To Hell with them all" 

Say "To Heaven with you" 



Me, what will become of me? 

Wading into the sea 

Water way past my knees 

Swallowing oceans is my speciality 



You, like a trembling bird 

Hanging on to each word 

Crawling out of my sight 

Oh how spite makes might 



Me, crass stupidity's pawn 

Kept us shouting till dawn 

Old memories torn 

Wishing I'd never been born 

(You're losing it, losing it, losing it) 



And you, Jack of Diamonds maybe 

But the Ace ever me 

With each turn of the card 

Ever hardening heart 



Me, smiling one moment 

Crying the next 

Building up to explosions 

That leave me shipwrecked 



You, stubborn brazen and wild 

Unpredictable child 

Emotional blackmail 

Always destined to fail 

(You're a failure in love, you're a failure in love) 



Me, saying things I regret 

I don't want to stop yet 

Got to make you break down 

Got to make you break uncontrollably down 



You, rhinoceros skin 

Never, never give in 

Never, never giving 

Hurts so to see me win 

(You're always unforgivably stubborn) 



Me, yes a cancer you tell 

With the softest of shells 

Always ending the same 

Taking all of the blame 

I'm taking all of the blame 

(This is the last time 

This is the last time)
