Frank Turner Reasons Not To Be An Idiot  Lyrics

You're not as messed up as you think you are 
Your self-absorption makes you messier 
Just settle down and you will feel a whole lot better 
Deep down you're just like everybody else 

She's not as pretty as she thinks she is 
Just picture her after she's had kids 
I bet she sits at home and listens to The Smiths 
Deep down she's just like everybody else 

So why are you sat at home? 
You're not designed to be alone 
You just got used to saying "no" 
So get up and get down and get outside 
Cos it's a lovely sunny day 
But you hide yourself away 
You've only got yourself to blame 
Get up and get down and get outside 

He's not as clever as he likes to think 
He's just ambitious with his arguing 
He's crap at dancing, yeah and he can't hold his drink 
Deep down he's just like everybody else 

I'm not as awesome as this song makes out 
I'm angry, underweight and sketching out 
I'm building bonfires on my vanities and doubts 
To get warm just like everybody else 

So why are you sat at home? 
You're not designed to be alone 
You just got used to saying "no" 
So get up and get down and get outside 
Cos it's a lovely sunny day 
But you hide yourself away 
You've only got yourself to blame 
Get up and get down and get outside 

Amy thinks that life is lacking in drama 
So she fell for horoscopes, faith-healing and karma 
She's so wrapped up in her invisible armour 
She'll never grow into herself 
And it's OK thinking me and all my friends are just wasters 
But saying that I can still see through her heirs and graces 
I bet she's scared her life won't leave any Caught up like everyone else 

That's not the point anyway 
Oh darling, I felt compelled to call you up to say... 
So why are you sat at home? 
You're not designed to be alone 
You just got used to saying "no" 
So get up and get down and get outside 
Cos it's a lovely sunny day 
But you hide yourself away 
You've only got yourself to blame 
Get up and get down and get outside 
Get up and get down and get outside 
Get up and get down and get outside 
Get up and get down and get outside 
Get up and get down and get outside 
Get up and get down and get outside
