You need a new song |
|
I'll set the words up so they tear right at your soul |
|
Don't take me too long |
|
But there's a danger that I'll plagiarize something old |
|
My fingers kill me as I play my guitar |
|
'Cause I've been chewing down at my nails |
|
My hairline ain't exactly superstar |
|
But there's one trick that never fails |
|
This never fails |
|
I write the same old song with a few new lines |
|
Everybody wants to cheer it |
|
I write the same old song you heard a good few times |
|
Admit you really want to hear it |
|
Ahhhhhhhh Yea |
|
Whenever I see you |
|
You try to treat me like I'm some kind of perfect man |
|
Just 'cause I please you |
|
You explain, but you don't think I can understand |
|
My head is spinning as I scrawl with my pen |
|
'Cause I've been pouring vodka in my soul |
|
Nothing really ever changes my friend |
|
New lamps for old |
|
New lamps for old |
|
We hum the same old lines to a different crowd |
|
Everybody's wanting to hear it |
|
We run on endless time to reach a higher cloud |
|
But we never ever seem to get near it |
|
Turn on the radio |
|
Love is proclaimed |
|
Again and again and again |
|
Join in and sing now, |
|
don't be ashamed |
|
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain |
|
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain |
|
Let it rain |
|
Let it rain |
|
We need a new song |
|
But why not sing the change underneath a harvest moon |
|
The mood was all wrong |
|
Who wanna see the rage |
|
Somebody switched the tune |
|
It's easy being obnoxious and queer |
|
The difference could earn you fame |
|
Nothings left unsaid It's just another year |
|
But we need shaken up just the same |
|
Just the same |
|
We sing the same old line, just like a vintage car |
|
You can look but you won't ever drive it |
|
We drink the same old wine from a brand new jar |
|
Get hung over, but we always survive it |
|
Sing the same old song |
|
Sing the same old song |
|
Like the same old song with a few new lines |
|
Everybody wants to cheer it |
|
Like the same old song you heard a good few times |
|
Admit you really want to hear it |
