Sloan - Before I Do lyrics
There's no more fame to address Did you impress? In all fairness, yes So just cancel my game If it's all the same to you I've had clear thoughts Tied in black and blue knots But you remember that I forgot To track them down To track you down Track me down Call me if you need my help To watch you - help me, help you I've tried it all before (I've had a good time) And it's not a lot of laughs (My best one yet) And there's a hole in my heart You carried your vice twice Like a basket full of roses And the pearly gate now closes With you inside How should I drink to this? My train's been stalled for ages And this means me standing still With a first cla** ticket So stick me with it I'll stick with it Just call me if you need my help To watch you - help me, help you I'm usually in mourning (I've had a good time) In the afternoon and night (My best one yet) Otherwise I'm asleep (I never had enough time) At least I've got a lot of room And the alarm is set for noon (To play you my "love you" set) And it's gonna go off Before I do (I've had a good time) (Speaking during instrumental) So he was in this, this hospital Checkin' out the phone he misunderstood And I was speakin' firmly, very talkatively at the time And he was walking around with a dress on Totally dressed with, with his arm down And he said, I dunno what I'm doing here I'm a business man He didn't come and tell me They totally misunderstood me you know This is a whole, whole mistake here This is a whole f**in' mistake But I can't explain it and they don't wanna listen to me You know, you know this No they didn't, they didn't listen to me You can't help it I couldn't explain it, but business is business And then there's f**in' this other time This f**in' town, they didn't wanna let me out They didn't wanna let me telephone you directly These ba*tards These ba*tards stuck me in here and I wanted to talk to my lawyer Now I'm totally pissed, man You're the first guy I've met since I, since I got here Now what, what should I do? Look, maybe you can help me out here Maybe you can get me out of here The hell with the girl I don't care who you are I run 10 kilometres a day And they put me down for a nice, nice long stay Anyway now I'm here for a while now You know, I'll just have a good time
