Michael Penn - By The Book Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Always been horseblinded
  • Could never see
  • Past the two shades on the periphery
  • I ask you for mercy
  • And beg clemency
  • But something I'm feeling is sticking with me
  • When you're all alone
  • And I am not around
  • I know that you think me
  • As cold as the ground
  • I don't play accordion, we disagree
  • But something I'm thinking is sticking with me
  • If this ain't by the book then the book must be wrong
  • And maybe it is what you hoped all along
  • Now you didn't think I would go quietly
  • When something about you is sticking with me
  • This person I've been wasn't me I surmise
  • You know me too well
  • You'd see through a disguise
  • Someone must have cloned a facsimile
  • And it bears repeating "sticking with me"
  • They're cutting the bull
  • And they're drinking its blood
  • Show me a patriot
  • Show me a scud
  • And that's about all I can get from TV
  • and there's still this feeling sticking with me
  • If this ain't by the book then the book must be wrong
  • Can't we sleep in
  • You can wake me at dawn
  • We'll start us a regular royal dynasty
  • So long as you are only sticking with me
