"Too Old" lyrics
"Too Old"
Way too old
Way too old
From your gilded glass house you're hurling rocks
You wanna see me shamed, displayed in stocks
What you fail to see, you don't scare me a bit
'Cause I'm too old for this shit
Way too old
It's just a little white lie from a little white guy
And it never really made much sense
Put a little more time into meter and rhyme
Put the Eggman on that fence
And Humpty's gonna fall
Fall down
Humpty's gonna fall
Break your crown
Keep your head on a swivel, watch what you say
The devil you don't know wants to see you pay
What was funny one time is a crime today
And it never goes away
This life can be really weird for me
For my children and my wife
Sticks and stones used to break my bones
But now words can end my life
'Cause everything's a bomb
Everything's a bomb
There's no end in sight as we fight for right
Till we fill up all the jails
When you're swinging your hammer, slinging your grammar
Everybody looks like nails
The hammer's gonna fall
Your hammer's gonna fall
From your gilded glass house you're hurling rocks
You wanna see me shamed, displayed in stocks
What you fail to see, you don't scare me a bit
'Cause I'm too old for this shit
Way too old
Way too old for this shit
Way too old

Toad The Wet Sprocket - "Whatever I Fear" There's almost nothing left
You eat my kind for breakfast
What did i expect
To come here and find anyone?
Find open arms to greet me
And friends to feed me
I sicken myself so much
And you eat my kind...
Gin Blossoms - "Hey Jealousy" Well, tell me do you think it'd be all right
If I could just crash here tonight
You can see I'm in no shape for driving
And anyway I've got no place to go
And you know it might not be that bad
You...
James - "Laid" This bed is on fire with passionate love
The neighbours complain about the noises above
But she only comes when she's on top
My therapist said not to see you no more
She said you're like a disease...
Crash Test Dummies - "Androgynous" Here comes Dick, he's wearing a skirt
Here comes Jane you know she's sportin' a chain
Same hair, a revolution
Same build, evolution

And they love each other so,...
Hootie & The Blowfish - "Get Out Of My Mind" Last night had a crazy dream
You were everywhere it seemed
You were filling up my soul
Doin' everything to make me whole
Read about you in the Sunday paper
Saw your face on the evening news...
