"Wanted It Yesterday" lyrics
Watching you walk in the pouring rain
Your coat's on backwards
And you're mumbling curse words to the floor
And I can't help but laugh
Though it only makes you angrier
You say it's not funny, but you know that it is
That wicked sense of humour, always slicing through the toughest parts of life
And your eyes as kind as when I met them
You want it all to go right so bad
You don't want the world
But you'd like to spin it on your finger
You got the girl and the job and the house and the love
But you still want it all, and you wanted it yesterday
Watching you sleep in your childhood bed
You were awake all night pacing holes in your head
And I wanna take it all for you
I watch your face frowning every day
Going to war over funny love songs
You got your life and your blood and your brain and my love
But you still want it all, and you wanted it yesterday
Your coat's on backwards
And you're mumbling curse words to the floor
And I can't help but laugh
Though it only makes you angrier
You say it's not funny, but you know that it is
That wicked sense of humour, always slicing through the toughest parts of life
And your eyes as kind as when I met them
You want it all to go right so bad
You don't want the world
But you'd like to spin it on your finger
You got the girl and the job and the house and the love
But you still want it all, and you wanted it yesterday
Watching you sleep in your childhood bed
You were awake all night pacing holes in your head
And I wanna take it all for you
I watch your face frowning every day
Going to war over funny love songs
You got your life and your blood and your brain and my love
But you still want it all, and you wanted it yesterday
