Ambling Alp - Yeasayer

Now kid I know I haven't been a perfect man

And I've avoided doing things I know I can

But if I learned one thing the tattoo on my arm

Will burn into my thumb it would be that

You must stick up for yourself son

Never mind what anybody else done

Stick up for yourself son

Never mind what anybody else done

Old man schmelling was a formidable foe

But ambling alp was too

At least that's what I'm told

But if you learn one thing

You've learned it well

Until you must get past yourself

They'll run but they can't hide

You must stick up for yourself son

Never mind what anybody else done

Stick up for yourself son

Never mind what anybody else done

Stick up for yourself son

Never mind what anybody else done

Stick up for yourself son

Never mind what anybody else done

And when those thunder clouds are crying

In the skies in the skies

And when those fireflies keep shining

In your eyes in your eyes

Keep your mind for the time

With your ass on the line

Keep your feet feet sliding

To the side to the side

Now the world can be an unfair place at times

But your lows will have their complement of highs

And if anyone should cheat you take advantage of or beat you

Raise your head and wear your wounds with pride

You must stick up for yourself son

Never mind what anybody else done

Stick up for yourself son

Never mind what anybody else done

Stick up for yourself son

Never mind what anybody else done

Stick up for yourself son

Never mind what anybody else done
