Looking For Clues

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.

It's crazy but I'm frightened by the sound of the telephone, oh yeah

I'm worried that the caller might have awful news, oh my'

Who knows these days where on earth the money goes, oh yeah

No doubt we could put it to a better use, oh my

You keep insisting that nobody showed you how to keep relationships, oh yeah

Your daddy made a real good try, oh my

You said you knew all along

We could work it out, oh yeah

Do you have to make a fuss everytime we fly

Oh I'm looking for clues

I have to make an effort now I just to be serious, oh yeah

Nobody's gonna give you the benefit of the doubt, oh my

Everytime I pick a paper up it's harder to believe the news, oh yeah

I'm gonna have to shake it up and twist and shout, oh my

You can't do nothing that you don't put your mind to, oh yeah

I suspected all along you were a dream come true, oh my

I'm never in the dark 'cause my heart keeps me well informed, oh yeah

I'm convinced that there's a way of getting through to you

Ooh I'm looking for clues

It's crazy but I'm frightened by the sound of relationships, oh yeah

I swear we could put it to a better use, oh my

Do hurry baby you've forgotten how to catch a night groove, oh yeah

You told all the callers you were not amused oh I'm looking for clues

You keep insisting that nobody showed you how to use a telephone, oh yeah

Nobody's gonna give you a second chance, oh my

I don't have to make an effort now to find out where the money goes, oh yeah

Do you have to make a fuss everytime we dance

Ooh I'm looking for clues

Do ya do ya do ya do ya

Ooh I'm looking for clues

Ooh I'm looking for clues

Ooh I'm looking for clues

Repeat
