Up the Creek
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.
Watch it!
Just like the one's that got away,
Supposedly if so far.
I threw my hook into the water,
I nearly gotta.
House design now
[I'm up the creek]
Although I lost a little ground
[I'm up the creek]
I know that time is on my side
[I'm up the creek]
Don't you go pull the plug on me.
[I'm up the creek]
There more than one fish in the sea.
I'm not about to let it be.
I know that I am up the creek.
Hey, hey
The foreign legions always there. I need a holiday.
Daydream in the dessert, with no pressure, that's the way, cause
[I'm up the creek]
Although I've lost a little ground.
[I'm up the creek]
I know that time is on my side.
[I'm up the creek]
Don't you go pull the plug on me.
[I'm up the creek]
There more than one fish in the sea.
I'm not about to let it be.
I know that I'm up the creek.
[I'm up the creek]
Without a paddle.
[I'm up the creek]
But that don't matter at all.
[No matter at all]
No matter at all.
[No matter at all]
[I'm up the creek]
Without a paddle
[I'm up the creek]
I'm learning to paddle it all,
[Don't mention at all]
[Don't mention at all]
paddle it all.
[Don't mention at all]
Hey, hey
I'm, up the creek
I'm, up the creek
[I'm, up the creek]
Here I go! You want to go?
[I'm, Up the creek]
Help me! Help me! Help me!
[I'm, up the creek]
[I'm, up the creek]
Watch it! Wow!
[I'm, up the creek]
[I'm, up the creek]
