Spiritualized
Don’t Just Do Something

[Verse 1]
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?

[Verse 2]
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

[Verse 3]
Sometime I like to sit around
I'm just contemplating sitting round
I could lay in bed like my momma said
"Don't just do something, sit around instead"

[Verse 4]
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't plainly see
Just what is it for, if it's not for me?

[Verse 5]
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
[Refrain]
Oh, babe, I'm going nowhere
Nowhere's where I wanna be
And babe, I'm good for nothing
Nothing is good enough for me

[Chorus]
Anything, anything can come to anybody
Everything, everything can come to someone sometime

[Refrain]
Oh, babe, I'm good for nothing
Nothing is good enough for me

[Chorus]
Anything, anything can come to anybody
Everything, everything can come to someone sometime

[Verse 6]
Sometime opportunity passes right by me
Didn't even slow
I can't breathe and think and I need a drink
All this common sense made a fool of me

[Verse 3]
Sometime I like to sit around
I'm just contemplating sitting round
I could lay in bed like my momma said
"Don't just do something, sit around instead"
[Verse 2]
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

[Verse 7]
Sometime I get me all confused
And the reasons why are confusing too
I could be with you, try to sort it out
If I tell the truth, I like to lie about

[Verse 5]
Sometime, though it's a big surprise
I've 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

[Verse 8]
Sometime I like to sit around
I'm just contemplating sitting round
And though life goes on, I can't plainly see
All this common sense made a fool of me

[Outro]
I don't want to live, but I can't resist
I've got some reasons and I made list
I'm gonna drown before my ship comes in
And I forgot to ring my mum again
And life ain't good without cigarettes
