Prize Fighter Inferno, The - Pistol Pete Matty Lyrics






You can't take the strain, the worries, they have wore on you
But it's alright to blame, you have every right to
Mother, will they press, press on you to take the slack?
'Cause he's your trouble now
There's no sneaking out through the cracks - Oh...

Matty, there's no excuse for thinking the world's gonna turn for you
But I say, if no one's looking, then it's okay

The giving and the take, the straw that broke the camel's back
We were in the way of an old man's broken past
While he longed for the old, life stuck him deep in the brand new
Oh, he knew

Matty, there's no excuse for thinking the world's gonna turn for you
But I say, hey! If no one's looking, then it's okay

Oh, we'll work this out, we'll work it out
We'll work this out
Life has a funny way of taking everything
And leaving nothing

Matty, there's no excuse for thinking the world's gonna turn for you
But I say, if no one's looking, then it's okay - Oh!
Matty, there's no excuse for thinking the world's gonna turn for you
But I say, hey! If no one's looking, then it's okay
Matty, there's no excuse for thinking the world's gonna turn for you
But I say, hey, I love you anyway

  1. A.... A....

    We were in the way of an old man's broken past....


    Damnit man, gravity couldn't make that any heavier.

  2. M.... S....

    life has a funny way of taking everything... and leaving nothing :')

  3. K.... L....

    2:29 best part

  4. K.... R....

    I would not complain if Coheed stopped and Claudio just did Prize Fighter. So much <3. 

  5. J.... K....

    yo whos playing the harmonica

  6. M.... H....

    Oh, it's on sucka.

  7. 1.... ....

    that harmonica segment gets me every single time

  8. Y.... B....

    Owww shit .. this song is cool :o

  9. K.... S....

    oh my good lord jesus oh
    just oh

  10. D.... C....

    YOUR NAME IS NOT PETE

  11. P.... W....

    Because I've seen the fights on each of these songs, all because we can't all agree and that's just human nature. But to slander what one believes in for inspirational purposes is unneeded, we can all be entitled to an opinion but opinions can be misleading and even start more conflict unfortunately..

  12. J.... .....

    Have to disagree completely. When Blood Machine came out, I thought it was great and was actually really into it because it wasn't the way I was used to hearing Claudio. That acoustic/electronic sound is what he originally intended Coheed to be when he was picturing it as a side project to Shabutie. The only issue I have with Half Measures is The Simple Fix. The song just doesn't grab me the way the others do. YOTBR isn't their best, but isn't a terrible album. It was just way too overproduced.

    J.... .....

    Must disagree, YOTBR was awful lol

  13. J.... .....

    I've got to work this out on my acoustic. I just get the feeling it would sound really good acoustic.

  14. C.... B....

    "Domino the Destitute is... very much a play on the departure of Mic Todd, our original bass player" watch?v=v11nNI20tNs

  15. C.... ....

    Domino is not about Michael Todd. I have the deluxe edition with Claudio explaining all the songs. Domino is a story he had and he called the character Domino because he and his brother used to play dominoes all the time and the story is about brothers. The song "Half Measures" off this album is about the previous bassist Michael Todd.

    C.... ....

    Clearly you're a casual listener. EVERY Coheed song has two stories behind them. One being the story for the album concept (Domino) and the other being a personal story or event that lead to it's composition. Claudio has clearly stated that the song is about Michael Todd and his departure from the band because of drug abuse.

  16. d.... ....

    DAT HARMONICA!! AND DAT VOICE!!

  17. C.... W....

    Ah, a guy with a long nose and his 2.5 awkward friends! I see, very interes...oh, nevermind.

  18. g.... ....

    Day = made.

  19. J.... ....

    Three wack albums that he made is
    1.half measures
    2. Blood machine
    3. The year of the black rainbow
    IN THAT ORDER!!!!!
    Other then that I have no complain

  20. C.... B....

    Domino The Destitute is about Mic Todd. This one would make more sense if it was about Chris (or something and someone completely, totally unrelated).

  21. C.... B....

    HEY! Do you wanna feel sooooooooo CLAUDIO? Try CLAUDIOTHIRST. The energy drink for people who need GRATUITOUS AMOUNTS OF CLAUDIO. With all new flavors like HALF MEASURES. It's like adding Claudio to an electrical storm. Sound the alarm, you're going to be uncomfortably awesome. You'll have so many planets in the Keywork. 78 PLANETS IN THE KEYWORK. Claudiorunning, Claudiojumping, Claudiosinging, Claudioguitar, Claudiotheremin, more Claudio than your body has room for.

  22. W.... ....

    333333333

  23. T.... C....

    You can never take in enough Claudio

  24. v.... ....

    Prolly my favorite song off the whole EP. Anyone have lyrics? I feel like this is about Coheed's old bass player.

  25. i.... ....

    It was implied.

  26. D.... c....

    i had a gecko
    :/

  27. T.... F....

    When you're calling something gay you are not expressing opinion.

  28. C.... T....

    This PFI album looks set to be my favourite album! It's awesome!

  29. i.... ....

    I like this song but what is wrong with people expressing their opinion? Even if it's negative maybe it's the first song from that he/she has listened to and wanted to give it a chance maybe but they just did not like it.

  30. P.... W....

    I love everything Coheed does, but I will never understand those who dislike certain songs by them and post things like "That's a gay song," well there's the suggestion bar find something else.

  31. T.... P....

    this song is gay

  32. c.... ....

    He did if you were paying attention...

  33. k.... f....

    my geuss is he doesn't want to take anything away from the band because there apart of the new album... the prize fighter is just him and he already has more then enough attention lol

  34. R.... ....

    Anyone know how to get hold of a CD copy of this? I aint got no grammaphone but I instantly love this new album whereas YOTBR took a few weeks to grow on me. Claudio only makes masterpieces.

  35. K.... W....

    This is like new new? I was just reading on Wikipedia about them and it didn't even say this was in development. I weirdly hate Coheed but love PFI a ton.

  36. D.... R....

    He and Chondra both announced that they were releasing a limited number of Vinyls at their live shows via Twitter. I believe the actual CD version will be available October 11th.

  37. W.... P....

    Like WTF? Why was he not announcing this?

  38. I.... ....

    Just the background ringing Im guessing lol

  39. D.... T....

    Reminds me of the theme for the I.T crowd /watch?v=w5-_B-tKnZw

  40. G.... ....

    Is 'Pistol Pete' a Smashing Pumpkins reference? I know that Claudio's a fan of them!

  41. N.... B....

    Claudio likes to use the word "press" a lot. haha

  42. S.... C....

    I had no idea there was new PFI as well as the Afterman? My sweet lord jesus, this is too much to take in at once.

  43. I.... N....

    The Clanking percussions make me think of the blood machine slowly ripping apart my body and extracting my soul to this beautiful music.

  44. M.... ....

    If no ones looking then, it's okay.

  45. K.... k....

    That harmonica.....chills

  46. M.... S....

    this stuff is OK. but I take coheed way more any day. too pop for me

  47. F.... ....

    Oh that harmonica solo, BEAUTIFUL!

  48. T.... S....

    8==D ~° ~° ~°

  49. G.... ....

    he does on the first Prizefighter album - look up 'Run Gunner, Recall, The Town Wants You Dead' :D

  50. J.... ....

    CLAUD PLAYS THE HARMONICA???

  51. B.... ....

    by far my favorite of the four! thanks for the upload neesh :)

  52. B.... V....

    Is there an excuse for my creamy undergarments?

  53. G.... P....

  54. r.... v....
