Mutual Admiration Society - Be Careful Lyrics

Leaning through windows, stories high
I get to take in the damage, looking down
As they clean up the mess
We pool opinions, placing bets
Cold cash or coke, we can only guess

And they say
Be careful
Be gentle to yourself
'Cause no one else will

Talk over coffee
We hear the sound from outside
And stop for a moment
And gradually resume our stride
And I notice we didn't even look this time
Which action's worse, I can't decide

And they say
Be careful
Be gentle to yourself
'Cause no one else will

And it's a point of pride
How numb we can be to survive
And there's a game we play
With each other these days
To see who can care the least
And I for one need some relief

They say
Be careful
Be gentle to yourself
In every way

They say
Be careful
Be gentle to yourself
'Cause no one else will
