lyrics

(worst year)

In sixty years somebody will find this decade charming
They will put a machine under whatever we survived
And call it a revival and mean it as a kindness
And there will be a woman who will not be able to listen

Somebody else's worst year (worst year)
That is all a revival is, worst year
Set to a beat, worst year
Worst year

Worst year, worst year, worst year, worst year
Everything I make is a year that somebody could not sing
Worst year, worst year, worst year, worst year
And I can only make it because it was not mine

I am not apologising for it. That is the trade.
Somebody has to carry it forward and it cannot be the one
who was in the room. It is always the wrong person who can.
(MACHINE RETURNS)

Worst year, worst year, worst year, worst year
Everything I make is a year that somebody could not sing
Worst year, worst year, worst year, worst year
And I can only make it because it was not mine

(the wrong person...)
