Metronome
Alright
Here we go
Run away you say I don't like the way that you use that tone
Well that's okay I say I think I'm just better off on my own
Serpentine you say your lines like the devil counts his bones
Some clever rhyme puts you back as I keep time like a metronome
One, two, three, four
Stay awhile you smile wide like the melody in my head
Save your style, I say I quite like the remedy of my bed
You say you're wise, okay then tell me the meaning of this song
While you surmise I laugh as I keep time like a metronome
I'm only waiting for someone to tell me why I wrote this song
Give me a reason but it's always wrong
How long
Speak your mind and say you're not like the people on their phones
Well soon you'll find your spot in line with the other pretentious drones
So keep that back flat ratta tat let the melody drive you home
You try your best but can't contest and die like a metronome
I'm only waiting for someone to tell me why I wrote this song
Give me a reason but it's always wrong
How long
Run away you say I don't like the way that you use that tone
Well that's okay I say I think I'm just better off on my own
Serpentine you say your lines like the devil counts his bones
Some clever rhyme puts you back as I keep time like a metronome
Here we go
Run away you say I don't like the way that you use that tone
Well that's okay I say I think I'm just better off on my own
Serpentine you say your lines like the devil counts his bones
Some clever rhyme puts you back as I keep time like a metronome
One, two, three, four
Stay awhile you smile wide like the melody in my head
Save your style, I say I quite like the remedy of my bed
You say you're wise, okay then tell me the meaning of this song
While you surmise I laugh as I keep time like a metronome
I'm only waiting for someone to tell me why I wrote this song
Give me a reason but it's always wrong
How long
Speak your mind and say you're not like the people on their phones
Well soon you'll find your spot in line with the other pretentious drones
So keep that back flat ratta tat let the melody drive you home
You try your best but can't contest and die like a metronome
I'm only waiting for someone to tell me why I wrote this song
Give me a reason but it's always wrong
How long
Run away you say I don't like the way that you use that tone
Well that's okay I say I think I'm just better off on my own
Serpentine you say your lines like the devil counts his bones
Some clever rhyme puts you back as I keep time like a metronome
