Untouchable Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This is nothing new to me
It takes more than what you've got
To frighten me
I'm not scared of you
There’s nothing you can do
Or take from me

[Chorus]
Untouchable
You think you're untouchable
You know
No one's untouchable

[Verse 2]
You're bound to lose the game
There's no one else to blame
You play so safe and you're not risking enough
You are doomed to be undone
I swear I'll be the one
To bring you down

[Pre-Chorus]
It's all your fault
'Cause you got caught
[Chorus]
Untouchable
You think you're untouchable
You know
No one's untouchable

[Bridge]
It must be nice
To be so sure
And never feel
Insecure
It must feel good
To believe
You're always right and
You're never wrong

[Verse 3]
You've got something to say
You say it to my face
And be a man about it
You got a problem with me
Don't go behind my back
Just like a baby

[Chorus]
Untouchable (Pride comes before)
You think you're untouchable (You take a fall)
You know (You'd best beware)
No one’s untouchable (A woman scorned)
Untouchable (Pride comes before)
You think you're untouchable (You take a fall)
You know (You best beware)
No one's untouchable (A woman scorned)
No one's untouchable
[Outro]
You think you're untouchable
You know
No one's untouchable
No one's untouchable
No one's untouchable
No one's untouchable
No one's untouchable

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

“Untouchable” is track #12 on Garbage’s third album Beautiful Garbage.

Being “both a reprimand and a warning”, it’s a song Shirley dedicated to a man in the music business. A different take on the same matter is “Flipping the Bird” on Garbage’s 2021 album No Gods No Masters.

The track was originally to be remixed and released as a single from Beautiful Garbage by the record company, although plans fell through.
