Intro

    

Verse 1

Salt grips the road
Awaits his lift again
Street orange glow
Shades the odds against
One more sip a shoe a miss
A shaving nick an extra kiss
Who's to know whatever!

Chorus

Not up to me
Not up to you 
Not up to me
Not up to you

Verse 2

Swings don't swing
The parks been dead for years
How do you know
Your last swings weren't the last for good
Hard book on freaks, fresh summer peach, creased magazine
Sugar chocolate treat
Who's to know whatever!

Chorus

Not up to me
Not up to you
Not up to me
Not up to you

Verse 3

The street's so long
Where she lost her pocket purse
Kept the last picture
Of the man she commited first
Cracked windscreen rain
French murder play
Junk take away
Tired street parades
Who's to know whatever! Whatever!

Chorus

Not up to me
Not up to you
Not up to me
Not up to you. Oh whatever!
Not up to me
Not up to you, not up to anything we do
Not up to me
Not up to
Oh you, oh you, oh you
It’s not up to me 
It’s not up to you

Outro
