Manic Street Preachers Dead Passive song lyrics

She's so passive but she's looking good

He's so passive but he's looking good

They are together but really they're apart

They are together but do not belong, but do not belong

Yes ladies and gentlemen

Let's fall asleep to a plastic lullaby

The ballad of Kate and Johnny

The ballad of Adam and Naomi

The ballad of Michael and Helena

The ballad is forever changing

She's so passive but happy in her way

He's so passive but happy in his way

They do nothing just sit and they pretend

They sit around and pray for it to end, pray for it to end

Yes ladies and gentlemen

Let's fall asleep to a plastic lullaby

The ballad of Kate and Johnny

The ballad of Adam and Naomi

The ballad of Hugh and Elizabeth

The ballad is forever changing

I'm so passive

A hopeless fucking mess

We're so passive

Do our bid for charity

From Bosnia to London

We do it all for free

We do it all for free
