[Verse 1]
I was outta love and out of my heart
I couldn't quite stop something that I didn't start
Yeah, yeah, the critics said no
I didn't know how it came, so I couldn't go
[Non-Lexical Vocables]
[Pre-Chorus]
I was third on the bill of a second-rate show
The audience asked me why but I didn't know
Ho-ho, my predicament grew
But now I got friends, and I think that my friends are you
Yeah
[Non-Lexical Vocables]
[Chorus]
You know I looked around for faces I'd know
I fell in love with the people in the front row
Oh, how my predicament grew
Now I got friends, and I think that my friends are you
[Non-Lexical Vocables]
[Bridge]
You can put me here, and I'm all yours
Not for the money, and it's not for the applause
No, oh no, no, no
'Cause after is nothing, it's doing the song
I don't have to hear a thing to know I've been grooved on
[Verse 2]
These chords that I'm using are usually sad
I had to use them, they're the best chords that I have
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
Oh yeah, this progression is usually sad
But it felt my sorrow, and I wanted it to feel me glad
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, yeah
