Down on the Ropes Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You're not the sharpest knife in the drawer
But that's no excuse for apathy
I understand you want to set your mind at ease
But not all is fair in love and war

[Chorus]
(I'm at your...) Beck and call, beck and call, in control
Now you enamor me
Beck and call, beck and call, in control
I'll surrender happily
Beck and call, beck and call, in control
Rewarding vanity
This shit goes on, you'll find me
Down, down on the ropes
Down on the ropes

[Verse 2]
You take advantage, you play the fool
Just twist and turn reality
You know distraction keeps the mind under control
But the cure is rationality

[Chorus]
(I'm at your...) Beck and call, beck and call, in control
Now you enamor me
Beck and call, beck and call, in control
I'll surrender happily
Beck and call, beck and call, in control
Rewarding vanity
This shit goes on, you'll find me
Down, down on the ropes
Down on the ropes
[Outro]
I won't go down without a fight
I won't go down without a fight
This shit goes on
This shit goes on, you'll find me
Go down, go down on the ropes

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 [?]
