Underdogs

Manic Street Preachers

This one's for the freaks
For you're so beautiful
For all the devotion
Written in your soul

This one's for the freaks
For the lost and weak
For the butterflies and devotees
And the disciples of our destiny

[Chorus]
And like the underdogs we are
Shining bright but now disappeared
And like the underdogs we are
Passing like some fading stars
Like some fading stars

This one's for the freaks
The beaten down and crushed
The shy and withdrawn
Or just out of touch

May you stay like freaks
May you make mistakes
May your will never break
For underdogs revenge is sweet
Revenge is sweet

[Chorus]

This one's for the freaks
This one's for the freaks
People like you, need to fuck
Need to fuck people like me
This one's for the freaks
For the lost and weak
This one's for the freaks

    General CommentAwesome drumming there from Sean. That line 'People like you need to fuck, need to fuck people like me' though, what the hell is that meant to be about? Aside from that momentary weirdness, I love this song :)
    It reminds me of how tiny, lazy-eyed, badly-named James used to get taunted so much at school as one of the 'underdogs', and is now a super-successful rock-star...
