[Intro:][Schäffer & Jane Silence:] [S:]So [J:]Give me one good reason Something to believe in Cause all I see is reaching Onto things to sink my teeth in In your eyes I'm seeing Got that sinking feeling And now you're going under It's your thunder that I'm stealin' [S:] So give me [J:] one good reason [S:] just [J:] something to believe in [S:] cause [J:] Cause all I see is reaching Onto things to sink my teeth in (teeth in) In your eyes I'm seeing (seeing) Got that sinking feeling (feeling) And now you're going under It's your thunder that I'm stealin' [Verse 1: Schäffer the Darklord] High five, up high, down low - oh too slow No really though, you're having a go At the business of show so way to go But I don't know About your work Maybe some day you will make it better Not bad for an amateur You gave it a shot A for effort Take a letter And this bitter pill for swallowing And break a leg But I hear it's awfully hard to follow me And opening up for me It ain't no picnic neither Either you get booed Or you play to an empty room Because no one will be there Alert! Emergency! You need rehearsal urgently You're paying your dues But using third world currency I recall those days in hazy memories You know you kind of remind me of me Minus eloquence and energy And everybody knows it And you're probably getting sick of it I haven't slept in days I'm drunk And still I'm more articulate Go on Hit me with your best shot Come on do your worst And then just watch me win an Oscar For pretending it hurts (but it won't) [Chorus: Schäffer] Nice try Little buddy High five Why don't you hit the side lines Cause it's my time Bye bye I'm a thunder thief A cunning sneak I'm coming up from underneath To undermine I'm unrefined But i might have to blow your mind So nice try little buddy High five Why don't you hit the side lines
Cause it's my time Bye bye I'm a thunder thief A cunning sneak I'm coming up from underneath To undermine I'm unrefined But i might have to blow your mind [Verse 2: Jane Silence] Oh my Every time you speak I think you're finally fine But then i'm reminded Your fatal flaws are underlined And underscored And i've ignored It feels so long Intentionally I'd sing your praises Were there enough to mention me A little in common (so very little) There is nothin' wrong in (nothin' wrong in) Feedin' from the bottom I've done it too just not as often (just not as often) Once you hit your fire And you've climbed a little higher Then admire me As the goal to which you will aspire [Verse 3 Schäffer:] Alright, alright, alright, alright All night As i caught your sight I saw that you got white But it's alright Don't be frightened by it It's just called a spotlight And it won't bite Obscurity can be a safe place Never embarra**ed Means you'll never have to safe face So if you quit while you're behind And now it's time to retire I say you made a fine attempt Because i'm kind of a liar And should you get inspired For another try Reminder: Like DMC advised: You and your kind can call me, Sire [Chorus: Schäffer] X 2 So nice try Little buddy High five Why don't you hit the side lines Cause it's my time Bye bye I'm a thunder thief A cunning sneak I'm coming up from underneath To undermine I'm unrefined But i might have to blow your mind [Intro/Chorus near simultaneous] X 2 So nice try (one good reason) High five (somethin' to believe in) Side line (cause i all see is reachin' For a place to stick my teeth in) My time bye bye I'm a thunder thief (in your eyes i'm seeing Got that sinking feeling) I'm comin' up from underneath A thunder thief (and now you're going under It's your thunder that i'm stealing)
