Respectable People ft. Mute Speaker Lyrics

You're so irritatingly wholesome

You're so shiny, polished and new

You're infuriatingly pleasant

It's exhausting being round you (sigh)

All your pieces in perfect places

All your portions measured just right (1,2,3,4)

You make sure that nothing is wasted

Except for a heck of a night

But you know it could be fun

If we got a little dumb

And you know it could be swell

Hauling up a little hell

And you know it could be neat

Pulling tricks out of our sleeves

What's the point of being good

Just because you know you should

Oh but you

You're so irritatingly wholesome

You're so shiny, polished and new (gosh it's so bright)

You're infuriatingly pleasant

It's exhausting being round you

Life should be fun

You're so chivalrous and well-mannered

You'd never dream of being rude (Well, I never!)

You're exasperatingly docile

It's vexating being round you

But you know it could be fun

If we got a little dumb

And you know it could be swell

Hauling up a little hell

And you know it could be neat

Pulling tricks out of our sleeves

What's the point of being good

Just because you know you should

You're so chivalrous and well-mannered (Good for you!)

You'd never dream of being rude

You're exasperatingly docile

It's vexating being round you

Life should be fun

Why should we be proper when

There's enjoyment to be had

Does it really take you far

Gathering papers full of gold stars

When you know it could be fun

If we got a little dumb

And you know it could be swell

Hauling up a little hell

And you know it could be neat

Pulling tricks out of our sleeves

What's the point of being good

Just because you know you should

Oh but you

You're so irritatingly wholesome

You're so shiny, polished and new (look at you shine)

You're infuriatingly pleasant

It's exhausting being round you (sigh)
