lyrics

I hope that when we dance
Video cameras cease to exists
The music comes and drifts away
To shaking hips and offbeat clapping
Let me jump out of my skin

I love my two left feet
They told me all the things that I could never be
And so I lived my life that way
And look at how I am today
I could sing forever

I ran away and joined a band
There are certain things you'll never understand

When I get tired, I spit fire out of my hands
When he gets excited, he turns the light out and goes to bed
When I get better, I'll write songs for soda cans
When he gets my letter, I don't think he'll understand

I live in some kind of crazy nation
Of myriads and constellations
Man, I never really thought about
How much I wanted to scream and shout
It's time to change nothing

In the time it takes to tie your shoes
I could run a mile or two
The party's over, it's time to go home
The safest place to drink alone
I'm not ready for bed!

I ran away and joined a band
There are certain things you'll never understand

When I get tired, I spit fire out of my hands
When he gets excited, he turns the light out and goes to bed
When I get better, I'll write songs for soda cans
When he gets my letter, I don't think he'll understand

When parents get drunk again
But it's not cool because they can
It's not their fault is what I say
It takes me back to yesterday

My friends got mad because they came
And nothing's here to tempt their fate
Are you more than just a sum
Of what your body depends on?

All I've ever wanted was a restless body and a restless mind
So I change my shape to fit the crime
And it's not my fault, is what I say
It takes me back to yesterday

When parents get drunk again
But it's not cool because they can
It's not their fault is what I say
It takes me back to yesterday

My friends got mad because they came
And nothing's here to tempt their fate
Are you more than just a sum
Of what your body depends on?

All I've ever wanted was a restless body and a restless mind
So I change my shape to fit the crime
And it's not my fault, is what I say
It takes me back to yesterday
