News in this city 
Breaks without pity 
Long after the war has ended 
We're still in fatigues 
 
Up against it 
The higher you fly, the further you fall 
Up against it 
Wondering why we fought after all 
 
Such a cold winter 
With scenes as slow as Pinter 
Synchronize your watches 
There's still time to kill 
 
Up against it (Come up against it, ooh) 
Drinking this swill to sweeten the pill 
Up against it (Come up against it, ooh) 
The more that it hurts, the less that it works 
 
Wrapped in nostalgia to queue for a show 
Back to Trafalgar, one kiss, then I'll go 
 
So deep in quicklime 
The bones of an old crime 
I knew a man who raked them over 
He's still suffering 
 
Up against it (Come up against it, ooh) 
Buried so deep it gives me the creeps 
 
Up against it (Come up against it, ooh) 
The longer you hate, the more that it grates 
Up against it (Come up against it, ooh) 
Look left, then right, so run for your life 
 
(Come up against it now) 
(Really come up against it, ooh) (Ooh ooh ooh) 
(Come up against it now) 
(Really come up against it, ooh) (Ooh ooooh) 
(Come up against it now) 
(Really come up against it, ooh) (Ooh ooh ooh) 
(Come up against it now) 
(Really come up against it, ooh) (Ooh ooooh) 
(Come up against it now) 
(Really come up against it, ooh) (Oooooh) 
(Come up against it now) 
(Really come up against it, ooh) 
(Ooh ooh ooh) 
 
Up against it 
The more that it hurts, the less that it works 
 
(Oooh - oooh - oooh - oooh - oooh ...)
