"La La Lie" by Jack's Mannequin



Guess what, I'm done writing you songs
You'll give up your job at the bank
Proving money's not fun when you're gone
So this is the first verse
It's not very long
But I'm ready to move on

Guess what, I'm done writing your book
The ending got twisted around
But for all of the hell that it took
The electrical wires
They'll hum in the walls
In the room that I rent now

Well actually I've got friends who (la la lie)
Will help me pull through (la la la lie la la la lie)
The spaceman that can't get high
I'm coming back to my girl by July
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

That's right.

So, guess what, I'm done drawing you pictures
I'm dulling the day with a drink
In the parking garage by the theater
We met for a movie
Every scene was a sign
We made out through their meaning

Well I've got friends who (la la lie)
Will help me pull through (la la la lie la la la lie)
The spaceman that can't get high
I'm coming back to my girl by July
Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Yeah!

Guess what? I'm done writing you songs
I'm far too unstable to settle
I doubt that the doctors are wrong
So I'll wait by a palm tree, a palm tree, a palm tree

Well I've got friends who (la la lie)
To help me pull through (la la la lie la la la lie)
The spaceman can't get high
I'm coming back to my girl by July
Well I've got friends who (la la lie)
Oh she'll help me to pull trough (la la la lie la la la lie)

The song for a long goodbye
I'm coming back ,I'm coming back to my girl
La la la lie, back to my girl (la la la lie la la lie)
The song for a long goodbye
I'm coming back to my girl by July
