I first met you, hangin' knickers on the line
From that moment on
I knew that there could only be one outcome
Me and you against the world forever

You have no folks and I'm just a joke
But we made a vow
That we would never sell each other out
A lie detector wouldn't make me doubt you

Now we know that it's us verses the world now
Me and you against the world now
Look up there in the sky now
See the stars well they're shining just for us

Hey now, me and you against the world now
Look up there in the sky now
See the stars well they're shining just for us

We hitched a ride that would turn out suicide
I had my '45 replica gun
I didn't think we'd ever need it
Didn't know he had a real one loaded

You went in first, took the worst
Couldn't hear me shouting you
To stop above the busy traffic p***ing by
We promised that together we would die

Now we know that it's us versus the world now
Me and you against the world now
Look up there in the sky now
See the stars, well they're shining just for us

Hey now, me and you against the world now
Look up there in the sky now
See the stars, well they're shining just for us

I went in next took a bullet in the chest
So I hit him on the head with the only thing that
Was anywhere near me
A tin of baked beans and a woman's weekly

I got the cash, picked you up and made a dash
We didn't get too far, we made it to the parking lot
40 cops in front of us, guess who got shot

Lyin' there dyin' in each other's arms
Oh, you said to me
Don't worry about a thing my little sweetheart
We're together, we shall never be apart

You took a chance on a loser like me
But you never let me down
And whether we're in Heaven or hell
I know, it's better than separate cells

Now we know that it's us versus the world now
Me and you against the world now
Look up there in the sky now
See the stars well they're shining just for us

Hey now, me and you against the world now
Look up there in the sky now
See the stars well they're shining just for us
