Frank Hamilton What If
[Verse 1]
What if happy was a channel we could choose
What if music never made it past the blues
What if God was just a bloke who drives a bus
What if you and me, we spoke in terms of us
What if love was sold in shops upon the shelves
Politicians cared much less about themselves
What if Adam tried and failed to get the girl
What if mice are here to take over the world
[Chorus]
There's a thing called life
And it's killing me
But there's nowhere else
I would rather be
So I'll lose myself
In the melody
Yeah, I'll lose myself
There's thing called life
[Verse 2]
What if living in the past was made illegal
If the world was square and everyone was equal
What if radio played songs about our lives
And television shone a light into our eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cause I don't know where we went wrong but it's alright
Just keep listening to the songs inside your mind
[Chorus]
There's a thing called life
And it's killing me
But there's nowhere else
I would rather be
So I'll lose myself
In the melody
Yeah, I'll lose myself
There's thing called life
[Verse 3]
There's a thing called life
What if dreams are our reality
And reality's a dream
What if we're part of something bigger
There's a script for every scene
What if worry made you happy
What if money made you sad
Tea and coffee got you stoned
And all the good guys they were bad
What if guns were made illegal
What if weapons were just words
What if the animals could talk
What if we flew up with the birds
‘Cause I've been waiting by the window
And I've been staring out the door
And I still don't know what on earth we're here for
[Chorus]
There's a thing called life
And it's killing me
But there's nowhere else
I would rather be
So I'll lose myself
In the melody
Yeah, I'll lose myself
