Lyrics

Special Cases (feat. Sinéad O'Connor)

(Robert Del Naja/Neil Davidge/Sinéad O'Connor)

Don't tell your man what you don't do right,

Nor tell him all the things that make you cry,

But check yourself for your own shit

And don't be making out like it's all his.

Take a look around the world;

You see such bad things happening.

There are many good men.

Ask yourself--is he one of them?

The deadliest of sin is pride.

Make you feel like you're always right.

But there are always two sides.

It takes two to make love, two to make a life.

Take a look around the world;

You see such bad things happening.

There are few good men;

Thank your lucky stars that he's one of them.

Ah, ah, ah,

Ah, ah, ah,

Take a look around,

Ah, ah, ah.

Ah, ah, ah.

Ah, ah, ah.

Special Cases (feat. Sinéad O'Connor)

Don't tell your man what you don't do right,

But check yourself for your own shit

And don't be making out like it's all his.

Take a look around the world;

You see such bad things happening.

There are many good men.

Ask yourself--is he one of them?

The deadliest of sin is pride.

Make you feel like you're always right.

But there are always two sides.

It takes two to make love, two to make a life.

Take a look around the world;

You see such bad things happening.

Thank your lucky stars that he's one of them.
