Lyrics
Well,
I saw you at the social event
I felt you tried to circumvent
Never give me the time of day
Feels like I always gotta introduce myself
You got me mesmerized
You got me hypnotized
I’m obsessed with the worry
What did I say wrong, do wrong?
Is it my presence, is it unpleasant?
Well, sorry if I’m a weirdo
Maybe I talk too much, or drink too much
Talk your head off with compliments
You see through this paper-thin confidence
Or is it just a reflection
Polar sames causing deflections
Perhaps it’s all in my head, shit
Telling dad jokes, drumming up clever quips
Can’t we all just get along? (Can’t we all just get along?)
Can’t we all just sing a song? (Sing a song)
Can we let our furies fall? (Let our furies fall)
Let’s dance and have a ball (dance and have a ball)
‘Cause truth be told
I’m just down and out
Feel like it’s not working out
I got some skills but my light’s burning dim
I’ve got good hands but I’m sitting on them
It’s right on the tip of my tongue
The teeth the lips the crazy sum
Now hold on tight, don’t come undone
We’re all here together let’s, let’s, let’s have some fun
Can’t we all just get along? (Can’t we all just get along?)
Can’t we all just sing a song? (Sing a song)
Can we let our furies fall? (Let the furies fall)
Let’s dance and have a ball (dance and have a ball)
‘Cause the tides of the moon got me coming undone
I need to train my brain to stay the course, a horse is a horse
And now saddle that force and ride to the vivid sky
I don’t need to apologize
I hope that you can sympathize
You know I respect you but you lack the proper couth
Can’t we all just get along?
Can’t we all just sing a song?
Can we let our furies fall?
Let’s dance and have a ball
