SCREW YOU MARY​-​LOU

from You Alright? by We Know John

about

Screw You Mary-Lou is the fifth single we released from our EP 'You Alright?'.

If you have not heard of us before we are We Know John; a six-piece band that originates from the vibrant music scene of Southampton. Our music is a fusion of pop punk and punchy brass; blending the nostalgia of classic pop punk with the energy of the modern era and blasting horns. We try to write infectious horn lines, catchy melodies, and harmonious vocals that come together to create an upbeat, party-like atmosphere that you hopefully won't want to miss.

When you ask for a pay rise that you deserve and you don't get it we hope this Screw You Mary-Lou helps. Never think you are aren't good enough, if you ever feel like you're not, get out of there to a place where you are valued!

lyrics

I've got this great idea, to get me outta here
Ooh
But I can't follow through, on all these things I do
At all

I've heard it once or twice before and I'll hear it once again
I'm a catastrophe but I believe I will be till the bitter end

I've got to find a way, tomorrow's another day
Ooh
To get my head on straight, and just forget the hate
I hold

It may be circumstantial but, it happens all the time
I'm a catastrophe but I believe
I will be til the day I die

Walking down an avenue, and straying from the line
I missed the opportunities, now I need to find the time
I'm a catastrophe, and I believe
Eventually I'll get things right
