Jude - Lyrics

Taking More and Giving Less
He said I'm a lover not a fighter
As he came into the room
The people clap and they laughed
And they handed him a broom
She said we need a superman
To clean up all this mess...
He slowly started taking off her dress
He said I've started taking more and giving less

Yes yes yes
I leave it to you 
To clean up my mess 
I've started taking more and giving less
Yes yes yes

He was living in the city
He was working with his hands
He was feeling ugly beautiful
So he gathered up a band
And they played for all those Lucifers
As he slapped away their hands
And he said you must confuse me with the rest
I have started taking more and giving less
Yes yes yes

I leave it to you
To clean up my mess
Cause I started taking more and giving less
Yes yes yes

He called her on the telephone
And she said she'd take a plane
He could not stand to be alone and to listen to the rain
So she drank up all his secrets
And she kissed away his pain
Addicting him to something dangerous
He had started taking more and giving less
Yes yes yes

I leave it to you 
To clean up my mess
Cause I started taking more and giving less

My master now is my own happiness
I've started taking more and giving less
Yes yes yes
Yes yes yes
I've started taking me more and giving less

Coda:
Now he is a captain
In his ship upon the se
Sailing it to anywhere
That's where he wants to be
And all he ever needed
Was to know he could be free
So where he goes is anybody's guess

He has started taking more and giving less.
