Devo Lyrics

"Thanks To You" lyrics



I used to be a prickly guy
Bursting everybody's bubble
Don't ask me why
I didn't care

I was keepin' busy
scratchin' to the top
I just couldn't stop
I never took the time to
pick up what I dropped
I just couldn't stop
I just couldn't stop

(but then something happened)

Thanks to you!
What do I do?
You cut me down
a size or two

Well, I never knew
LyricsNow I owe everything to you

I was riding real high
Stepping over bodies
Making people crackers
I didn't care
I never heard a word
when people were talking
I didn't have the time

(Everbody's talking now)
(Saying nothing, huffing, puffing)
(Gentlemen, let me tell you something) (Listen, let me tell you something)

Thanks to you!
What do I see?
It's more than writing in front of me
Thanks to you!
How could it be?
It took you to make a fool out of me
Thanks to you!
What do I do?
You cut me down
a size or two

Well, I never knew
Now I owe everything to you
Thanks to you!
Thanks to you!
Thanks to you!
