John Carter And The Heat Ray Songtext
Ladie and Gentlemen of the audience
Let me take a moment to introduce ourselves...
We're the ones that you love
But the ones you ignore
That cried on the table
And died on the floor
We're the kids that you hit
But that don't give a shit
Anymore
Anymore
'Cause you and I
We're together all the time
Sitting watching the world go by
Just for us to get away
Got to get away
But if you don't stop drinking
And your smoking too
You'll be lying in a coffin by twenty-two
No one knows what we are going-
This ain't just a phase we're going-
No one knows what we are going-
This ain't just a phase we're going-
No one knows what we are going through.
I give you my promises
But you're not impressed
[?]
Gave you my right hand
But you took my left
[and you don't understand]
Well we've all made mistakes
But we've got what it takes
To get up off our knees
[get up off our knees]
And I'm wondering why
You cry all the time
'Cause I don't know
'Cause I don't know
'Cause you and I
We're together all the time
Sitting watching the world go by
Just for us to get away
Got to get away
But if you don't stop drinking
And your smoking too
You'll be lying in a coffin by twenty-two
No one knows what we are going-
This ain't just a phase we're going-
No one knows what we are going-
This ain't just a phase we're going-
Can't you see what we are going through
Life ain't been the same
Since yesterday
Boy, it's such a shame
But I don't think I care anyway
'Cause you and I
We're together all the time
Sitting watching the world go by
Just for us to get away
Got to get away
You and I
We're together all the time
Sitting watching the world go by
Just for us to get away
Got to get away
But if you don't stop drinking
And your smoking too
You'll be lying in a coffin by twenty-two
No one knows what we are going-
This ain't just a phase we're going-
No one knows what we are going-
This ain't just a phase we're going-
No one knows what we are going through.
