Spiritualized - Don't Just Do Something lyrics

rate me

Sometime

They say that love is blind

But I think that dumb is what they had in mind

I could let it go

But I'd rather know

If I sit around

will another show

Sometime

I get to fly so high

that the sun burns my wings but I will fly

just a little too far

'cause that's where you are

and I won't bring you down

believe in me

Sometime

I like to sit around

I'm just contemplating sitting round

I could lay in bed

Like my mamma said

Don't just do something

Sit around instead

Sometime

If I may say myself

I'm not bad at life, I'm not good as well

And though life goes on

I can plainly see

just what is it for

if it's not for me

Sometime

Though it's a big surprise

I may compromise the thing I most desire

I can say with pride

hold my head up high

that I had a great idea

but never mind

Oh babe

I'm going nowhere

nowhere's where I wanna be

Oh babe

I'm good for nothing

Nothing is good enough for me

Anything, anything can come to anybody

Everything, everything can come to someone

Sometime

Oh babe

I'm good for nothing

Nothing is good enough for me

Anything, anything can come to anybody

Everything, everything can come to someone

Sometime

Sometime

Opportunity passes right by me

didn't even slow

I can't breath and think

And I need a drink

All this common sense

made a fool of me

Sometime

I like to sit around

I'm just contemplating sitting round

I could lay in bed

Like my mamma said

Don't just do something

Sit around instead

Sometime

I like to fly so high

that the sun burns my wings but I will fly

just a little too far

'cause that's where you are

and I won't bring you down

believe in me

Sometime

I get me all confused

And the reasons why I confuse you to

I could be with you

Try to sort it out

If I tell the truth

I like to lie about

Sometime

Though it's a big surprise

I may compromise

the thing I most desire

I can say with pride

hold my head up high

that I had a great idea

but never mind

Sometime

I like to sit around

I'm just contemplating sitting round

And though life goes on

I can plainly see

All this common sense

made a fool of me

I don't wanna live

but I can't resist

I've got some reasons

and I made amends

I'm gonna drown before my ship comes in

and I forgot to ring my mom again

and life ain't good without cigarettes
