Lyrics for Lifes a Great Big Mystery Show by Jewel:
| | | Artist: | Jewel |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Lifes a Great Big Mystery Show | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 88 | | | | Lyrics: | Went downtown just to be a martyr
But a telephone pole beat me to it
It was covered in
barbed wire
Saw a little boys white teeth
Like wild horses encaged by an iron
string
Oh god...does not feel good unless he bleeds
And daily crucifictions are
hung up on street signs
They use all sorts of names
Hope they never use mine
These
consonants and vowels
That cannot scream nor howl
Only just hang around
Oh
god...howd things get so turned around
And in the office building
9 to 5 goes on
trial
The man is startin to crack
But the ceiling stones smile
And the boss comes
in
To see what fragile things
His dull and pointless tongue can tear
Oh god...he
combed over a baldspot with a bit of hair
Cause everybody needs
Somebody else to
blame
They cant curse themselves
They take their doctors name in vain
Theyd rather jump
through hoops
And theraputic groups
Than in their own minds delve
Oh god...why dont
we believe in ourselves
Sometimes
I think
Life is just a movie
And
these
Strangers
Are folks we really know
Sit back
Relax
Enjoy some
popcorn
Lifes a great big mystery show
Saw tiny faces that are tattered and
torn
But theres paint upon the mansion that is hardly worn
Id like to go inside
But why
I dont know
As though I could peel the paint
And feed it to the poor
Oh god...cant
live like this anymore
My landlord..no...
My neighbor is as tolerant as a feeding
shark
But they tell me that her bite is much better than her bark
She goes ramblin
on
From dusk until dawn
Sayin I should try bein like her sometime
Oh god...think
