Lyrics
Cool James
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.
Cannot have this, a perfect conversation
Or coast on silence and lowered expectations out the door
You've spent half your life talking trying to get a pause in edgewise
Swallow poison tongues, oppose your thumbs, believe in nothing
Cannot have a nature change, one more time
You cannot have a nature change, cause the bastard changes
Cannot have this, you see how so much time has wasted
To take a clenched fist and see how quiet calm replaced it
You say you'll never trust again, I'll never trust again
Who has time? You give that up on never finding
the one you've been waiting for, but
Cannot have a nature change, one more time
You cannot have a nature change, cause the bastard changes
Well I got no more time to spend on arguers
Devil's advocates and nasty bits of fits of desperation
"Lawrence of Arabia," sir Alex said to Peter
"What I owe you is beyond evaluation now"
Extend to me your hand, I'll nibble on your fingers
Bend to me your sweet ear, I'll gnaw it from its hinges now wooh!
Cannot have a nature change, one last time
Yeah thats why ladies love cool james, cause the bastard changes
