THAT’S THE THING

[Intro: GALLO]
Oh I've been trying to get hold
Of you, but you're never home
That's the thing with you
Always out on the move
So I'm trying to replace
What's been clouding up my days
That's the thing with you
That's the thing that you do

[Chorus: GALLO, Pete McClear]
Oh I've been trying to get hold
Of you, but you're never home
That's the thing with you
Always out on the move
So I'm trying to replace
What's been clouding up my days
That's the thing with you (The one I feel right here)
That's the thing that you do (Yeah yeah yeah, now we faded)

[Verse 1: Pete McClear]
That's the thing about you, you're so selfish
Crabby look on your face, you're so shell fish
Hop up off of my dick and my pelvis
If it wasn't for me, you'd be helpless
I come back every time, I'm so stupid
Toxic traits of the mind, I'm so human
I'm just in love with a dream, my life's lucid
You bring me down to my knees, Isaac Newton
'Cause the thing about you is I be calling yo' bluff
But the problem with me is that I can't get enough
You know I'd take a train or a bus or a plane
I'd do whatever it takes to hear you calling my name
One more time, that the thing
On my mind, my phone ring
It ain't you-ooh-ooh
I get down, I still think:
I'm a clown, I'm a clown (Ooh)
I'm a clown, that's the thing (Baby)
I'm a clown, I'm a clown (Ooh ooh ooh)

[Chorus: GALLO]
Oh I've been trying to get hold
Of you, but you're never home
That's the thing with you
Always out on the move
So I'm trying to replace
What's been clouding up my days
That's the thing with you (Yeah, uh)
That's the thing that you do

[Verse 2: GALLO]
See that's the thing with you
We used to hit the local bar and get a drink or two
And now I never think of you
But, ever so often I sink into a little nostalgia
It's been about a year since I called ya
Feeling like I lost ya but it's never too late
I been busy keeping all these stupid grins on my face
Tryna pretend it's never different but it's never the same
Had to wrap another chapter up and turn a new page
'Cause mama told me life not easy
But you don't want easy, believe me
So maybe soon we could talk again, briefly
But just be cautious how you go to plan to treat me
'Cause you know you're a clown
But I keep you around
And I don't know why, yeah
But it's straight 'cause I know
I'll better on my own
Without you on my throne

[Chorus: GALLO, Pete McClear]
Oh I've been trying to get hold
Of you, but you're never home (But you're never home)
That's the thing with you
Always out on the move
So I'm trying to replace
What's been clouding up my days (Clouding up my days)
That's the thing with you
That's the thing that you do

[Outro: GALLO, Pete McClear]
Ooh ooh
But you're never home
Clouding up my days
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
