Everybody, testing 1,2,3 |
|
Everybody, here goes nothing |
|
This pen can't write the words |
|
As fast as I can think them up |
|
In a state of half awake, I fill the page |
|
With all my frantic thoughts |
|
I hope one day |
|
You'll get to read |
|
What I don't have the guts to say. |
|
I hate how the words translate in normal conversation |
|
So everybody, testing 1 2 3 |
|
I know you're listening so I hope I don't mess this up |
|
This verse was the first I wrote when I didn't know what to say to you |
|
Now my hand is cramping up because when I'm here I'm not afraid to |
|
Write down the words that you hear right now |
|
I sing them loud shut them out |
|
Hello, it's me, can I have your attention please! |
|
Everybody, testing 1 2 3 |
|
I know you're listening so I hope I don't mess this up |
|
Everybody, here goes nothing |
|
I know you're listening so I'll keep my fingers crossed |
|
Yea oh oh oh oh oh oh |
|
I know you're probably not impressed oh oh oh oh oh oh |
|
I know it sounded better in my head oh oh oh oh oh oh |
|
But if I don't get this out you'll never hear how |
|
How it goes |
|
Everybody, listen closely to the words I say |
|
Can I please have your attention now? |
|
Everybody, testing 1 2 3 |
|
I know you're listening so I hope I don't mess this up |
|
Everybody, here goes nothing |
|
I know you're listening |
|
So I'll keep my fingers crossed |
