Jewel - Silver Lining lyrics

rate me

My muffins are in the toaster<br>I got my raspberry jam<br>My grandfather was a sailor<br>That came onto this land<br>And he was looking for gold,<br>A pretty hand to hold,<br>Or some cards to fold.<br>At least, that's what I was told.<br><br>Silver lining<br>Silver lining, where'd you go? <br><br>Turn on my tv<br>They got talking heads in space<br>Used to be so easy<br>To have a little faith<br>I used to rely on luck<br>I didn't feel so stuck<br>Could earn an honest buck<br>Without lookin round, like jon kruk.<br><br>Silver lining<br>Silver lining, where'd you go? <br><br>I used to have hope<br>Now we got soap on a rope<br>I used to have dreams<br>Now we got overplayed baseball teams<br>We got grocery baggers, grafitti taggers,<br>Golf-ball shaggers, go team go.<br><br>Silver lining<br>Silver lining, where'd you go? <br><br>My landlord knocks upon my door<br>He's got that payday face<br>I swear to God he should be payin me<br>To live inside this place<br>It's filled with sharks and fins<br>Whose double chins say<br>Thicken your skin, child<br>If you want to win<br><br>Silver lining<br>Silver lining, where'd you go? <br><br>I fix myself some herbal tea<br>Cause it's healthier they say<br>Well, healthier ain't half as fun<br>I take a cold beer anyday<br>I used to have dysfunctional fun<br>In the cancerous sun<br>With my co-dependent hon<br>Eatin greasy greasy hotdogs on a buttered up bun<br><br>Silver lining<br>Silver lining, where'd you go? <br>Silver lining<br>Silver lining, where'd you go? <br><br>[scat solo]<br><br>Repeat refrain. (x2)
