Eskimo Joe Album

You wake up some days and your head hurts,
like none of the lights in your house work.
You've been up all night, spending other people's money,
it's time to slow down from the speed that you're running.

It's hard sometimes being yourself,
like discarded rags on your top shelf.
You put on the clothes you know fit you once,
but you're out of fashion and she's out of class.

Everyone's always asking when we're going away,
no one's ever saying, "when are we here to stay?"
There's a hole in my pocket and a pressure in my head,
who are all these people getting me out of bed?

Hey there young girl
Throw it up here
And I'll catch it in my tree
Throw it higher
If you bring a ladder
Then we can be near
That's no secret
I'll tell you all about it on your next birthday
You won't believe it
There is one thing that you can do for me
Let me show you what it is

When I wake up, in the morning
You look so good, you look so good
When I get up, when I'm yawning
You look so good, you look so good, to me.

Hey there, I know
Everybody else chose to get up too late
Wear our blue jeans
We keep a lot of pockets and some pants out back
Breakfast, Oh no!
You think I could have just an extra piece
We should go home
There is one thing that you can do for me
Let me show you what it is

When I wake up, in the morning
You look so good, you look so good
When I get up, when I'm yawning
You look so good, you look so good, to me

You won't believe it
You won't believe it
You won't believe it
You won't believe it
You won't be there
You won't be there
You won't be there
You won't be there

Outside a marketplace on earth
There's a subject we all talk about
It's called girls and how they work
Last night while walking in the park

A strange kind of thought occurred to me
So I went to your house and told you
There is a place where people go
And it is worth its weight in gold

Out in the stars, up in the sky
There's a thing that they all talk about
It's called the opposite and how it works
Last night while walking past your house
I came across a man who said to me
It's out in the stars, up in the sky

There is a place where people go
And it is worth its weight in gold
They call this place the planet earth
Where you just know you're not the first

Oh, It's a low, it's a low, it's so many
Oh, It's a low, it's a low, it's so many
Oh, It's a low, it's a low, it's so many
Oh, It's a low, it's a low, it's so many
Oh, It's a low, it's a low, it's so many
Oh, It's a low, it's a low, it's so many
Oh, It's a low, it's a low, it's so many
Oh, It's a low, it's a low, it's so many
Oh, It's a low, it's a low, it's so many

There is a place where people go
And it is worth its weight in gold
They call this place the planet earth
Where you just know you're not the first
Where you just know you're not the...
Where you just know you're not the first

If you see my girlfriend cry,
Just keep walking pass her by.
Cos I'm not allowed to talk to her,

Cause who sold her out, Yeah we sold her out!
Who sold her out? Yeah we sold her out!

If you see my girlfriend stop,
Just don't tell her I forgot.
Cause I'm not the one to let her know,

Cause who sold her out, Yeah we sold her out!
Who sold her out? Yeah we sold her out!

I know what is right for you and me.
We're kissing in the street, and nothing's for free.
I know what is right for you and me.
There's nothing here to see, I hope its for free.

If you see my grilfriend round,
Just don't go and let her down.

How can we list, can we list our love?
How about in alphabetical order?

You say yes and then you correct me
I think it might get messy
I'm going to have to drunkenly, confess to you
That you drive me crazy
And you know it's true
And yeah, maybe
I might have to kiss you

How can we list, can we list our love?
How about in alphabetical order?

I know it's just your way of complaining
That all boys are no good
And I'm just pretending, that I'm a sucker for you
Please believe me
I'm here for you
And yeah, maybe
I might have to kiss you

How can we list, can we list our love?
How about in alphabetical order?

How can we list, can we list our love?
How about in alphabetical order?

If you want to get elected
Get yourself represented
If you want to get selected
We can show you how to get that

If you want to get elected
Get yourself represented
If you want to get selected
We can show you where to get that

If you want to get elected
Get yourself represented
If you want to get selected
We can show you where to get that

I know my way around
I have found a map to take me there
I know you'd like to come along, won't take long
Spend all day sitting round, riding city buses into town
But oh, you can't move standing still

If you want some time apart then take a rest
If you want some piece of mind then mum knows best

You put your luggage down
And realise that you're lying on the ground
With all the people looking round, upside down
You kiss your wife goodnight
She tastes just like dreams and fever
Oh, you know you lost your way again

If you want some time apart, then take a rest
If you want some piece of mind then mum knows best
If you want some privacy then shut the door
If you're not quite satisfied then eat some more

There's nothing underneath your bed
Don't believe what your friend said
Go to heaven when you're dead

There's nothing underneath your bed
Don't believe what your friend said
Go to heaven when you're dead

Slow Down, Your letting everybody down
Slow Down, Your letting everybody down
Slow Down, Your letting everybody down
Slow Down, Your letting everybody down

Slow Down, Your letting everybody down
Slow Down, Your letting everybody down
Slow Down, Your letting everybody down
Slow Down, Your letting everybody down

Aarrrrgggghhhh!

See me come and see me go
In my fancy resturant
All the time you never know
No, I can't pay for any of it
Don't like the way you use your tongue
To get one up on me
Oh man, can't you see.
How do you think we got this far

I go, hey man, look at me sing
Oh man I got a brand new thing
It goes a bada, bada, bada hey man
Don't know what I was waiting for
See me passed out there on the floor
See that girl over there, dress her up all in my stare
Don't want any of you to leave
Keep you 'round just as scenery
Oh, man can't you see
It seems the way of Sydney

All the time I took to make it here, you're so unkind
Everyone chose to let us in the back door
Chose to let us in

It's a crazy chord; they call it "B"
If you play it you will see
And write a song just like me

All the words I chose to write them down in this book yes I know
I only get around to reading it
I only get around

It's a crazy chord; they call it "B"
If you play it you will see
And write a song just like me oh

We've come to far
We've come to far
We've come to far
We've come to far

It's a crazy chord; they call it "B"
If you play it you will see
And write a song just like me
Write a song just like me

Hold me tight, don't let me go
I'm the one who takes you home tonight
Whisperin' whiskey and gin
I'm the one who takes you home tonight

Yeah yeah yeah, oh
Yeah yeah yeah, oh

Talk to me quietly
I'm the one who takes you home tonight
If you can be my man
I'm the one who takes you home tonight

Yeah yeah yeah, oh
Yeah yeah yeah, oh
Yeah yeah yeah, oh
That's right

Yeah yeah yeah, oh
Yeah yeah yeah, oh
Yeah yeah yeah, oh
Yeah yeah yeah, oh
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
