The Dandy Warhols: Bohemian Like You
| You
got a great car Yeah what's wrong with it today I used to have one too Maybe I'll come and have a look I really love your hairdo yeah I'm glad you like mine too See where looking pretty cool Will get ya So what do you do? 'Cos I like you | Wait Who's that guy just hangin' at your pad He's lookin' kinda bummed You broke up that's too bad I guess it's fair if he always pays the rent And he doesn't get bent about Sleeping on the couch when I'm there 'Cos I like you Yeah I like you And I'm feeling so bohemian like you Yeah I like you Yeah I like you And I feel I'm getting wise and I'm feeling so bohemian like you |
| My
face to the sky dreaming about just how high I could go and if I'll know when I really get there Taking off my glasses sun pokes through my lashes and somehow I know there's a time for every star to shine (Chorus) Everybody got their something everybody got their something make you smile like an itty bitty child People keeping score say better hurry up and get yours cause somebody else got your spot before you even dropped Seek and you shall find everything in my own sweet time I'll take my chances what what I believe is only mine | Busy
holding on so the roof don't fly keep you from moving on so get it right turn the tide over like a love song like a butterfly believe if you hand it over you'll come out alright (Chorus) Illuminate the silly things shed some light on all that's wrong Everybody need it sometime Sometimes the only thing you got is what makes you feel like you're something else all together You have everything don't need another reason to be something I've been on a ride and caught up in the landslide but I'm gonna spread my wings and fly... (Chorus) There's a time for every star... (x2) |
| You
think you can have both of them And I want you to know That I知 in, I知 in And this time I知 staying to bur the trail that you left, you left And if I was cold, well then you would stay inside me, warm me Here I知 safe so here I stay Lift me out, lift the doubt | You
asked me to say what I had done I told you just like I told everyone I still have some doubts that you are the reason Still this is just so hard 'Cause I know that I値l be left like always Here I知 safe so here I stay Lift me out, lift the doubt |
| How are you feelin' Do you feel okay 'Cause I don't It keeps me reelin' Will I ever be the same No I won't It's a cold day in a cruel world I really wished I could have saved you Then who would have saved me from myself Right now, well, I could use a stiff drink To kill the pain that's deep inside my bones Have you been dreamin' I don't dream at all I have nightmares | Memories
careenin' Have you come to kill what's left Of my smile There's no vacancy in paradise I really wished I could have saved you Then who would have saved me from myself Right now, well, I could use a stiff drink Kill the pain that's deep inside my bones I really wished I could have saved you Then who would have saved me from myself I really wished I could have saved you I'll never forget you (x4) I really wished I could have saved you (x4) |
| Night falls I fall And where were you? And where were you? Warm skin Wolf grin And where were you? I fell into the moon And it covered you in blue I fell into the moon Can I make it right? Can I spend the night? | High
tide Inside The air is dew And where were you? While I I died And where were you? I crawled out of the world And you said I shouldn't stay I crawled out of the world Can I make it right? Can I spend the night Alone? |
| Oh
Mario -- sit here by the window Stay here 'til we reach Idaho And when we go Hold my hand on take-off Tell me what I already know That we can't talk about it No, we can't talk about it Because nobody knows That's how I nearly fell Trading clothes And ringing Pavlov's bell History shows There's not a chance in hell -- but -- Oh Mario -- We're only to Ohio It's kinda getting harder to breathe I won't let it show -- I'm all about denial -- But can't denial let me believe? That we could talk about it But we can't talk about it | Because
nobody knows That's how I nearly fell Trading clothes And ringing Pavlov's bell History shows -- but rarely shows it well Well, well, well -- Oh Mario -- why if this is nothing I'm finding it so hard to dismiss If you're what I need, Then only you can save me So come on baby -- give me the fix And let's just talk about it I've got to talk about it Because nobody knows That's how I nearly fell Trading clothes And ringing Pavlov's bell History shows -- Like it was show and tell So tell me Mario |
| Who
would sell their soul for love? | But
if it's only tears and pain Isn't it still worth the cost Like some sweet saving grace Or a river we must cross If we don't understand What this life is made of We learn the truth When we find that kind of love Cause when innocence is lost There is not faith enough We learn the truth When we find that kind of love |

| God is a man You know for certain The knowledge in and of itself Is more than we deserve God is a man You know for certain The knowledge in and of itself Is more than we deserve What they say Does it make you feel ashamed Isn't everyone the same Does it matter that it wasn't your idea God is a man You know for certain The knowledge in and of itself Is more than we deserve God is a man You know for certain The knowledge in and of itself Is more than we deserve It's more than we deserve |
| Must
have been the devil who changed my mind Must have been the wind blowing not me crying Half the joy of Icaving was the space I left behind Now I'm back, angelheaded holloweyed Placed myself at the eye of the storm Just didn't see the signpost to scorn The blue sky wrinkled through my tears Them darkness grounded all my fears I gave him my sugar; He switched it for salt Should have seem him coming that's always my fault Rocks for my pillow and sand for my bed For better or worse I left him for dead But two rivers to each other run Words that shook me like the kick of a gun Had something in my heart ain't got no name Turned out he left the same Ain't it lonesome, ain't it sad I was the only happiness he ever had By Indian river the vows were said In a red devil's dress I was wed Cat cat bone, cat cat cat bone (8X) Bitch baby round lady Came to me in a dream Them lightning struck and thunder roared And nothing was as it seemed A two-headed doctor walked on the water And buried a lemon outside my door He turned and laughed, threw up his hands | When
I asked him what it was for He sang "Ships in the ocean rocks in the sea Blond-headed woman made a fool outta me" Them everything went crazy My shoes filled with blood The water rose the wind did howl The river looked ready to flood I left my man asleep to drown And ran without looking back around Ring the bells of mercy Send the sinnerman home The keys to the kingdom are lost and gone And i'm left to die alone All these irls grown old now All that long hair in the grave Realize what's done is done It's far too late to be saved Yeah cat cat cat (3X) Cat cat bone, cat cat cat bone ... |
| So
dear to me |
| You
never notice me | I
wish the sweetest eyes Would fall on me tonight I want to steal your heart I want to make it mine And leave this all behind And leave a legend of a love I want to be the girl you need When you're lost at sea Do you want to be Do you want to be alone? No no no Do you want to go Do you want to go it alone |
| It
might have been a while Since you've been loved Like you should be loved It might have been a while In tending loving arms Well summerbreeze is blowing through your window It might have been a while | It might have been a while Since you could trust That someone really cares When people like us Meant to go 'round in pairs Summerbreeze is blowing through your window And summerbreeze is blowing through your hair Something in your eyes that took me by surprise Don't tell me that it ain't there |
| The
velocity of time turns her voice into sugar water | I'm
riding on a camel that has big eyes The buildings are changing into coconut trees Little by little When a black cat crosses my path A woman in the moon is singing to the earth (x2) La la la, la la la la la la (x8) We are taking sugar water shower Shower |
