AIMEE MANN - It's Not Safe lyrics

rate me

All you want to do is something good

So get ready to be ridiculed and misunderstood

'cause don't you know that you're a fucking freak in this world

In which everybody's willing to choose swine over pearls

And maybe everything is all for nothing

Still you'd better keep it to yourself

'cause God knows it's not safe with anybody else

You can take your own advice and try again

But a thousand compromises don't add up to a win

And they'd be happy if you'd only cover your tracks

But the trail of crumbs you've left won't help you find your way back

So maybe everything is all for nothing

Still you'd better keep it to yourself

'cause God knows it's not safe with anybody else

God knows it's not safe with anybody else

You can play alongbut you'll just end up wrong somehowwon't you

-guitar solo-

But you're the idiot who keeps believing in luck

And you just can't get it through your head that no one else gives a fuck

So maybe everything is all for nothing

Still you'd better keep it to yourself

'cause God knows it's not safe with anybody else

God knows it's not safe with anybody else

-guitar solo-

God knows it's not safe with anybody else

It's not safe with anybody else

God knows it's not safe with anybody else

-52 secs of silence-

(play that guitar

But you're the idiot who keeps believing in luck

The speaker is out of the picture

I'm talking to the microphone

The microphone thinks that I'm talking

But I'm not talking at all

I'm singing to you)
