lyrics

Know that I’ve never been higher
Than I did when I light that fire
So I took these notes and a piece of paper
Wrote ‘em all down, tried not to piss off my neighbors

But when the world ain’t round, we all fall down
So reach out, reach out and help someone out

I say what I say, and do what I do
Yes, I say what I say, and do what I do
(but you do, exactly what you want to)

There you are sitting nightly
Hoping that your friends all like me
There you go hatin’ your circumstances
When you know, for a fact, that you don’t need answers

‘Cause when the world ain’t round, we all fall down
So reach out, reach out and help someone out

I say what I say, and do what I do
Yes, I say what I say, and do what I do

I don’t gotta understand you (no, I don’t)
And, even if I look like a fool (well, I know)
That I don’t got nothing to prove (fuck no)
But, we all got something to lose
