REM - What If We Give It Away? lyrics

rate me

(Berry/Buck/Mills/Stipe)

On the outside, underneath the wall

All the money couldn't buy

You're mistaken, no one's standing there

For the record no one tried

(chorus)

Oh, I try to

What if we give it away?

Overlooking with a hollow eye

What's pretending is it right

Eye for order a hand for what's in line

Couldn't follow, couldn't write

(repeat chorus)

And our life is fine here

Stitch it on your tie here

Here's the trailer, Tom

A year has come and gone

We're not moving was it right

Take the order sew it on your tie

We couldn't follow, couldn't try

(repeat chorus)

What if we give it away?
