( Live Glastonbury 2002 )
Everybody needs a place to live,
Everybody needs a friend,
I've been trying to find a place where maybe we could find some friends,
You know, I know, since we're together we've been moving in similar lines,
Conversation is a killer and maybe it's a friend sometimes,
Sha la la la la la la x 3
La la
Now I don't really need to be decided,
I can bide my time,
Slick sugar sweet candy beats and then some words that rhyme
We seek to keep together, by keeping loving, living apart,
With no mention of a future, hell you could be getting my leap ins???
Sha la la la la la la x 3
La la
Everybody needs a place to live,
Everybody needs a home and a friend,
So I've been trying to find a place where maybe we could find some friends,
You know, I know, since we're together we've been moving in similar lines,
A conversation is a killer and maybe it's a friend,
Sha la la la la la la x 3
La la
