Fish - Lady Let It Lie Lyrics
You should have listened to what your mother saidYou should have listened to what your father told you to doBut you always did just what you always wanted to doNow you end up here singing in a gilded cageAnd for half your life you were wishing you were half your ageLady let it lieIts hard putting down your family roots when youre living inA mobile home, but theres always blood even in a rolling stoneYou squeezed me hard for the white collar dreamBut you woke up to a tie dye lifestyle and its choking meLady let it lieChorusAll the boys want to be all the girls want to be all the boysI dont want to be me no moreAll the boys want to be all the girls in this turnaround worldI dont want to be me no moreThey once said I was a rising star declaring me a bright contenderWhen it all worked out I was just a pretenderI could never disagree if you said you were dissatisfiedBut why you got to take it out on a guy that triedBut surely theres something left, something worth fighting forSomething out of all this mess thats worth building onMaybe we can start again, maybe give it one more tryOr do we just walk away, and maybe fade and dieChorusAll the boys want to be all the girls want to be all the boysI dont want to be me no moreAll the boys want to be all the girls in this turnaround worldI dont want to be me no moreI dont want to be me no moreMe no more(dick/paton/cassidy)
