This Perhaps - What The Hell Lyrics

Congratulations
The grapevine doesn't know it's you
Someone nicked your commendation
Surely that must hurt a tad or two
You said it's what you wanted
You never sought applause
Fame and fortune never counted, my friend
You preferred to shut the doors

Well who are you kidding?
I've been watching closely from the bar
They say the fun's in giving
Good things come to those who blah blah blah
I thought I ought to mention
And this pertains to you
My drive is paved with good intentions
And I should know 'cause I laid a slab or two

What the hell! You never wanted credit
Truth to tell I thought that you should get it
What the hell! You never wanted credit
Truth to tell I thought that you should get it
Or you might regret it

There's a twist though
I'm not here to sell you future bliss
I'm a back to front Mephisto
Promising a past you chose to miss
What I'd like to sell you
Is your time again be glad
Now that heaven's off the menu
Hell is finding out that you've been had

What the hell!
What the hell!
What the hell! You never wanted credit
Truth to tell I thought that you should get it
What the hell! You never wanted credit
Truth to tell I thought that you should get it
Or you might regret it
