Lyrics
Cakewalking
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.
Yesterday we were always laughing
Always good for a laugh in passing
Stepping outside of the rules for asking
Misery passes and so does crying
Just look around
when you feel like dying
Stepping outside of the rules
when trying
Hopeless cases will drag you under
Fiery lovers will make you blunder
Tearing all the rules asunder
Trying to cakewalk but it's too boring
Coming to life at four in the morning
You think you're alive
But then you're just yawning
