Dan Mangan Not What You Think It Is
you would think that keeping up would be easier. livin’
large and livin’ strange, you’ll bend yourself.
summertime, it always seems to come creeping up. keep in
mind, you want it to. when you’re cold and you’re tired,
hurt and you’re sad. for all that you’ve given, for all
that you’ve had. it’s not what you think it is. you would
think that livin’ large and livin’ well will wear ya down
and wear ya thin and where ya goin? don’t you know i’m
grumpy when the time is right, when the time is on my
side? maybe you could fix me up, i could do the same for
you and maybe sometime soon, we can spend some time alone
to talk about the things we should talk about. tell me
’bout the time when everything’s a mess, tell me ’bout
the time - I haven’t heard it yet, tell me ’bout the
time, tell me ’bout the time, tell me ’bout the time. all
you need is time. when you’re cold and you’re tired. when
things just aren’t well. frightened of strangers and
scared of yourself. it’s not what you think it is. when
you’re strung out, when there’s hell to pay, when you’re
holding out for some better day, when your feet are
inspired, when you need some fresh air. with your fingers
on fire, release it all there. it’s not what you think it
is.
