The Ugly Underneath Lyrics


First there's the handshake
It's so warm that you could bake by it
Designed to take attention from their
Ugly underneathThen there's the wedding
The coordinated bedding
And the fairy tale shredding
Boy, it's ugly underneathAnd after the pretty
There's a gluttony of pity
On a cake called nitty, gritty
And it's ugly underneathDid you ever try to prise away the mask
Go ahead, take a spoon and try
I can tell you it's a Herculean task
Go ahead, it's okay to cryWhat you're chewing on's the truth
And that's the hardest thing
To wash down with a glass of lemonadeThe ugly underneath, ahThe thing with politicians is
I wouldn't have suspicions
If I saw their worst positions
And their ugly underneathBut after all the voting

Suck away the sugar coating
Now they've had you and they're gloating
Boy, it's ugly underneathDid you ever try to roll away the wheel
Go ahead, take a fork and try
See the unattractive things that make us real
Go ahead, it's okay to cryWhat you've trodden in's the truth
And that's the hardest thing
To wash down with a glass of lemonade

XTC were an influential rock band (starting out as a post-punk outfit but eventually developing into a sound that was a mix of new wave and alternative/college rock) which formed Swindon, England in 1972. For most of their career, the band consisted of Andy Partridge (vocals, guitar), Colin Moulding (vocals, bass) and Dave Gregory (guitar, keyboards). Gregory replaced founding keyboardist Barry Andrews in 1979 and left himself in 1999.
