Rudiments
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 got me in your pocket
And you played me for a fool
Oh I'm sure that you know it
But your being oh so cruel
After today there comes tomorrow
And then tommorow comes again
But for now all I see is my sorrow
Well maybe then again
Oh - no - yeah
Oh no, yeah yeah yeah yeah!
The band, they play out of tune
They're bleeding all over the place
And I'm buttoning up my feelings
So I can shove them back in your face
Pass me a cigarette
And I'll smoke it for your eyes
Cause I've got the rudiments to stay
Half the night
Well you got me breakdancin'
I'm spinning round and round
Yeah you just caught me glancin'
My feet dont touch the ground
After today there comes tomorrow
And then tommorow comes again
But for now all I see is my sorrow
Well maybe then again
Oh - no - yeah
Oh no, yeah yeah yeah yeah!
The band, they play out of tune
They're bleeding all over the place
And I'm buttoning up my feelings
So I can shove them back in your face
Pass me a cigarette
And I'll smoke it for your eyes
Cause I've got the rudiments to stay
Half the night
