Settle for a Draw Lyrics
Well, I watch you tangle every weekend
It might start different but it ends up the same
One minute you're casually speaking
The next it all goes up and you pour feul up on the flame with your
Jeri can of words and songs
Noone's gonna start a revolution
So why do we even moan?
And there's something that Frankie used to say, apparently
Oh, he said settle for a draw
Cause you're not gonna get no more
So you should settle for a draw
I've told you once I'm sure
I've told you once I'm sure you should settle for the draw
Why don't you settle for the draw?
Well you're right it is one set of rules for her
But then another set for you
But that's just the way it is, I suppose
And there's nowt you can do
And let's not fall in the trap of answering back
I am just a beginner
But I know she'll be the winner
That's for sure
So take the draw if it's available
And if it sets on fire
Don't get out your jeri can of
Words and songs
Noone's gonna start a revolution
So you better leave it well alone
And there's something that Frankie used to say, apparently
Oh, he said settle for a draw
Cause you're not gonna get no more
So you should settle for a draw
I've told you once I'm sure
I've told you once I'm sure you should settle for the draw
It might start different but it ends up the same
One minute you're casually speaking
The next it all goes up and you pour feul up on the flame with your
Jeri can of words and songs
So why do we even moan?
And there's something that Frankie used to say, apparently
Oh, he said settle for a draw
Cause you're not gonna get no more
So you should settle for a draw
I've told you once I'm sure
I've told you once I'm sure you should settle for the draw
Why don't you settle for the draw?
But then another set for you
But that's just the way it is, I suppose
And there's nowt you can do
And let's not fall in the trap of answering back
I am just a beginner
But I know she'll be the winner
That's for sure
So take the draw if it's available
Don't get out your jeri can of
Words and songs
So you better leave it well alone
And there's something that Frankie used to say, apparently
Oh, he said settle for a draw
Cause you're not gonna get no more
So you should settle for a draw
I've told you once I'm sure
I've told you once I'm sure you should settle for the draw

"Noone's gonna start a revolution So why do we even moan?"
its "So we best leave it well alone"
and its not "Jeri can of words and songs" its "Jerry can on words and tones"
"Settle for a draw" is something alex's grandad used to say. Its about arguing with a women, you can never win so just settle for a draw if you can :-) !
wise words i say ..
It's about compromise and apathy.
'Noone's gonna start a revolution So why do we even moan?'
i have the live version of this good times
So why do we even moan?? I hear "so we best leave it well alone" ... maybe that doesnt make sense.
I think its about a couple who are constantly arguing with each other but neither one can really win the argument. I dont know, thats just what I get from it.
why do i love this song? i dont know.... its so smove... hell yeah... peace!
I love how this song sounds. I agree with BoHo, i think this song's about compromise and just getting over it.
"Noone's gonna start a revolution So why do we even moan?"
its "So we best leave it well alone"
and its not "Jeri can of words and songs" its "Jerry can on words and tones"
I love how this sounds too. The music really sets the mood of the song.
I think it's about a relationships in general, and how men will never really win a argument, so they should settle for a draw..
About how men can't fight back "They have different rules for men and women."
And how women will always have control in a "healthy" relationship "No one's gonna start a revolution, so you better just leave it well alone."
