Wintersfella don't worry your review sums this song up perfectly. I was gonna post but you kinda took the words out of my mouth!
I don't usually listen to the Kaisers. Don't get me wrong, they make perfect pop but it's a bit overplayed. However, this song caught my imagination. It's brilliantly simple and I can relate it to my own situation.
Hope this makes sense: My x girlfriend recently moved out but has since realised this was a mistake on her part, but I can't have her back...She's a controlling character and will never take the blame for anything. So she has turned it into my fault but "the trick is getting her to think that all this was her idea", which it was! There is a massive internal battle of wills going on: she's trying to get back with me and, even tho I still have feelings for her, I can't be having that (i won't be the one to disappoint her anymore).. It's not a competition but I think i'm winning..at the moment, but there is no way of knowing. Love can thump you between the eyes at the most inconvenient moment! Keep you posted.
She was also "keeping score", but not of the altruistic things I did, only the negative.
I agree this could have been written by Morrisey. Simple lyrics but so ambiguous, pure poetry.
