What A Shambles
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You think its all so easy
When you got your name in lights
Money comes in bag fulls
And you spend it every night
It's a happy holiday
When you fly from place to place
Up at six each morning
Slapping make up on your face...
(chorus x 2)
I wish you were in our shoes
I wish you could be us
Washing all your laundry
And riding on the bus
Everybody loves you
Speaks to you at noon
Never knowing you made them
Thinking they made you
Double trouble everywhere
Not a drop to drink
Rehearshing conversations
I haven't slept a wink...
(chorus x 2)
What a shambles of a meeting
Don't know what to say
What a shambles of a bus ride
What a shambles of a day...
(chorus)
