Lyrics

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo-doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo-doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo-doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo
I'm packed and I'm movin'
Smilin', she's livin', she's golden
She lives for me, says she lives for me
Ovation, her own motivation
She comes 'round, she goes down on me
And I make her smile, like a drug for you
Doo ever what you wanna doo, comin' home with you
Keep on smilin' what we go through
One stop, rhythm that divides you
And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse
Chop another line like a coda with a curse
Come on like a freak show, takes the stage
We give them the games to play, she said
I want somethin' else
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kinda life, baby, baby
I want somethin' else
I'm not listenin' when you say
Goodbye
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo-doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo-doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo-doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo
The sky was gold, it was rose, I was takin' sips of it through my nose
I wish I could get back there, someplace back there
In the pictures you would take
Dooin' crystal meth'll lift you up until you break
It won't stop, I won't come down, I keep stock
A tick-tock rhythm, a bump for the drop
And then I bumped up, I took the hit that I was given
Then I bumped again, then I bumped again, I said
How do I get back there
To the place where I fell asleep inside you?
How do I get myself back to
The place where you said
I want somethin' else
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kinda life, baby, baby
I want somethin' else
I'm not listenin' when you say
Goodbye
I believe in the sand beneath my toes
The beach gives a feeling, an earthy feeling
I believe in the faith that grows
And the four right chords can make me cry
When I'm with you, I feel like I could die
And that would be alright, alright
And when the plane came in, she said she was crashin'
The velvet, it rips in the city
We tripped on the urge to feel alive
Now I'm struggling to survive
Those days you were wearing that velvet dress
You're the priestess, I must confess
Those little red panties, they pass the test
Slides up around the belly, face down on the mattress
One, and you hold me
And we are broken
Still, it's all that I wanna doo, just a little now
Feel myself, head made on the ground
I'm scared, I'm not comin' down
No, no
And I won't run for my life
She's got her jaws now locked down in a smile
And nothin' is alright, alright
And I want somethin' else
To get me through this life, baby
I want somethin' else
Not listenin' when you say
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye, no, no
Goodbye
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo-doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo
The sky was gold, it was rose
I was takin' sips of it through my nose
I wish I could get back there, someplace back there
In the place we used to start
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo-doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo-doo, doo
I want somethin' else
