Lyrics

Tell your friends not to think out loud Until they swallow Whisper things into my brain Your voice sounds so hollow I am not a leader of men Since I prefer to follow Do you think I could have a drink? Since it's so hard to swallow Yeah, so hard to swallow Turn your television off And I will sing a song And if you suddenly have the urge You can sing along I touch your hand, touch your face I think the fruit is rotten Give me lessons on how to breathe 'Cause I think I've forgotten Yeah, think I've forgotten One day out to a cliff That overlooks the water I jumped in to save a girl It was somebody's daughter And now the ring that's on my hand Was given to me by her And to this day, we all sit around And dream of ways to get higher Yeah, to get much higher Tell your friends not to think out loud Until they swallow Whisper things into my brain Your voice sounds so hollow, yeah I am not a leader of men Since I prefer to follow Do you think I could have a drink? Since it's so hard to swallow Yeah, so hard to swallow
