Thomas Gorton - Smart Thing lyrics

Why live alone Why dry your heart out In a room on your own When there's something you've been needing to say Why stay at home Why sit with friends When there's room on the throne We've been waiting for you praying for you It's not déjà vu Just an old disaster From a new point of view And everyone's afraid to say What's bad for me What gives me headaches Should be the right thing to do You wouldn't wanna waste your time Even when it's broke you say it's fine And when we're in a tight spot I Pretend that I'm listening But I can hear somebody whispering I pretend that I don't mind We try to do the right thing Always do the wrong thing Need to do the smart thing Do what you're told Don't dig a hole Without looking for gold I hate to say I told you so but Just like before The one lesson learned Is the one you ignore You wouldn't wanna waste your time Even when it's broke you say it's fine And when we're in a tight spot I Pretend that I'm listening But I can hear somebody whispering I pretend that I don't mind We try to do the right thing Always do the wrong thing Need to do the smart thing One minute more Something is happening And the smart thing to do Could be to turn around and walk away Just like before The one lesson learned Is the one you ignore Just in case you didn't realise You wouldn't wanna waste your time Even when it's broke you say it's fine And when we're in a tight spot I Pretend that I'm listening But I can hear somebody whispering I pretend that I don't mind We try to do the right thing Always do the wrong thing Need to do the smart thing
