Lyrics

Energy

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.

Mother and child

I'm such a man for a short while

Promises be

The world just spins faster than me

(Come on, come on, come on)

And all of your friends

I hear are whispering

I think you left me for the government

And all of your friends

Are hopelessly

I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy

Beauty or beast?

(Beauty or beast?)

Who's my character to be?

I'm now powdering

(I'm now powdering)

On the makeup that makes me

(Come on, come on, come on)

And all of your friends

Are now whispering

I think you left me for the government

And all of your friends

Are hopelessly

I wish you'd stop sucking all my energy

And all of your friends

Are still whispering

I think you left me for the government

And all of your friends

Are hopelessly

I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy

(You got it, you got it)

(Come on)

And all of your friends

Are now whispering

I think you left me for the government

And all of your friends

Are hopelessly

I wish you'd stop sucking all my energy

And all of your friends

Are still whispering

I think you left me for the government

And all of your friends

Are hopelessly

I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy

(Energy, energy, energy, energy, ahh)

I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy

(Energy, energy, energy, energy, ahh)

I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy
