Artist/Band: Harvey Danger
Lyrics for Song: Cream And Bastards Rise
Lyrics for Album: Little by Little [2005]



You're doing everything your people said to

I'd hate to be the one to break it to you

It's only sad cause it's true

They misled you when they bred you

Somebody said some things they had no right to

Somehow they stuck, then you were known as someone who

could simply not follow through if he had to

(but you have to, don't you?)



You don't have to be a genius, but it helps to (helps to)

Fools and charlatans, they may get wise

But only cream and bastards rise-- and you can see it in their eyes



You followed good advices to the letter

You know your friend?

He's doing so much better than you are ever likely to do

He'll eclipse you and he will not miss you



You don't have to be a genius but it helps to (helps to)

All the also-rans are real nice guys

But only cream and bastards rise:

People who can buy and sell you

Sharing a joke that they will never tell you

You think you're dialed in

Someone has to win, and you know what that means...

It means someone's gotta lose

It's probably you



It's not a race, it's not a competition

And if it were you'd be in no position to

Get them to listen to you if you had to

Not even if your life depended on it



You don't have to be a genius, but it helps to (helps to)

Some are aliens, the rest are spies

But only cream and bastards rise-- and you can see it in their eyes
