Elbow - A Mexican Standoff lyrics

Shifting my weight now from foot to foot

What did she see in this man

I'm not superstitious but if I can get

This ball in the basket, then he'll wake up dead

Your sweet reassurances don't' change the fact

That he's better looking than me

Yet he'd look ideal 'neath the wheels of a car

Oh Mexican standoff I wish I was hard

Your sweet reassurances don't' change the fact

That he's better looking than me

Yet he'd look ideal 'neath the wheels of a car
