"Spoon" lyrics
"Spoon"
(feat. Alanis Morissette & Béla Fleck)
Spoon in spoon
Stirring my coffee
I thought of you
And turned to the gate
And on my way
Came up with the answers
I scratched my head
And the answers were gone
From hand to hand
Wrist to the elbow
Red blood sand
Could dad be God?
Crosses cross
Hung out like a wet rag
Forgive you, why?
You hung me out to dry
And, well maybe I'm crazy
But laughing out loud makes the pain pass by
And maybe you're a little crazy
But laughing out loud makes it all subside
Holding, I'm holding
I'm still falling
I'm still falling
But on my way
Crack lightning then thunder
I hid my head
And the storm slipped away
Well maybe I'm crazy
But laughing out loud
Makes it all pass by
And maybe you're a little crazy
'Til laughing out loud
Makes it all alright
Laughing out loud
[Alanis Morissette:]
From time to time
Minutes and hours
Some move ahead
While some lag behind
It's like the balloon
That rise and then vanish
This drop of hope
That falls from his eyes
Spoon in spoon
Stirring my coffee
I think of this
And turn to go away
But as I walk
There are voices behind me
Saying sinners sin
Come now and play
Until you're laughing out loud
Come now and play

Carbon Leaf - "Raise The Roof" Raise the roof, that I might see the stars
To gain wisdom, to see things for what they are
Please, I need proof
Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof...
Toad The Wet Sprocket - "Fall Down" She said "I'm fine, I'm okay" cover up your trembling hands
There's indecision when you know you ain't got nothing left
When the good times never stay
And the cheap thrills always seem to fade away...
Phish - "Backwards Down The Number Line" Happy happy oh my friend
Blow out candles once again
Leave the presents all inside
Take my hand and let's take a ride
Backwards down the number line
You were eight and I was nine
Do you know...
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...
The Verve Pipe - "Colorful" The show is over - close the storybook
there will be no encore
and all the random hands that i have shook
well, they're reaching for the door
i watch the backs as they leave single-file
you stood...
