"Dancing Nancies" lyrics
"Dancing Nancies"
Could I have been
A parking lot attendant
Could I have been
A millionaire in Bel Air
Could I have been
Lost somewhere in Paris
Could I have been
Your little brother
Could I have been
Anyone other than me
Could I have been
Anyone other than me
Could I have been
Anyone other than me
Could I have been
Anyone
He stands touch his hair his shoes untied
Tongue gaping stare
Could I have been a magnet for money?
Could I have been anyone other than me?
Twenty three and so tired of life
Such a shame to throw it all away
The images grow darker still
Could I have been anyone other than me?
And then I
Look up at the sky
My mouth is open wide
Lick and taste, what's the use in worrying
What's the use in hurrying
Turn, turn, we almost become dizzy
I am who I am who I am well who am I
Requesting some enlightenment
Could I have been anyone other than me
And then I'll
Sing and dance, I'll play for you tonight
The thrill of it all
Dark clouds may hang on me sometimes
But I'll work it out
And then I
Look up at the sky
My mouth is open wide
Lick and taste, what's the use in worrying
What's the use in hurrying
Turn, turn, we almost become dizzy
Falling out of a world of lies
Could I have been a dancing Nancy
A dancing Nancy
Could I have been anyone other than me?
And then I'll
Sing and dance
La la la la hey
La la la la hey
La la la la
Sing and dance
La la la la hey
La la la la hey
La la la la
Sing and dance, I'll play for you tonight
The thrill of it all
Dark clouds may hang on me sometimes
But I'll work it out
And then I
Look up at the sky
My mouth is open wide
Lick and taste, what's the use in worrying
What's the use in hurrying
Turn, turn, we almost become dizzy
Thanks to Carolina for correcting these lyrics.

When asked to leave, it begs to stay

Drinking coffee, taking cocaine

Better Than Ezra - "Extra Ordinary" I got a little bit of hope
Like a soap on a rope
Sweeter than sour

Falling fast, and I'm running out of gas

You won't be anyone
Now tell me what you were thinking of
