"Givin' Up" lyrics - THE DARKNESS

THE DARKNESS
"Givin' Up"
(Dan Hawkins / Justin Hawkins / Frankie Poullain)

My mama wants to know where I'm spending all my dough
Honey, all she does is nag, nag, nag
But I won't apologize
I'd inject into my eyes if there was nowhere else to stick my skag
All I want is brown
And I'm going into town, shooting up as soon as I'm back
My friends have got some good shit, all I want is some of it
Gimme, gimme, gimme that smack

[Pre-Chorus:]
Well, I've ruined nearly all of my veins
Sticking that fucking shit into my arms
Yeah-yeah

[Chorus:]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Givin' up, givin' up givin' a fuck
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Givin' up, givin' up givin' a fuck

Getting off my face, there's a dragon I must chase
Honey, I'm the scourge of all mankind
And everyone, but me
Is destined just to be slaves to the remorseless grind

[Pre-Chorus:]
But, I found myself an easy way out
Sticking that fucking shit into my arms
Into my arms

[Chorus:]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Givin' up, givin' up givin' a fuck
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Givin' up, givin' up givin' a fuck

[Solo]

[Chorus:]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Givin' up, givin' up givin' a fuck
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Givin' up, givin' up givin' a fuck
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Givin' up, givin' up givin' a fuck
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Givin' up, givin' up givin' a fuck
