Blues Traveler - Hook (Live from New York) Lyrics

It doesn't matter what I say
So long as I sing with inflection
That makes you feel that I'll convey
Some inner truth of vast reflection

But I've said nothing so far
And I can keep it up for as long as it takes
And it don't matter who you are
If I'm doing my job, it's your resolve that breaks

Because the hook bring you back
I ain't tellin' you no lie
The hook brings you back
On that you can rely

There is something a miss
I am being insincere
In fact I don't mean any of this
Still my confession draws you near

To confuse the issue I refer
Familiar heroes from long ago
No matter how much Peter loved her
What made the pan refuse to grow?

Was that the hook bring you back
I ain't tellin' you no lie
The hook bring you back
On that you can rely

Suck it in, suck it in, suck it in
If you're Rin Tin-Tin or Anne Boleyn
Make a desperate move or else you'll win and then begin to see
What you're doing to me this M.TV is not for free
It's so P.C it's killing me so desperately I sing to thee of love

Sure also rage and hate and pain and fear of self
And I can't keep these feelings on the shelf
I've tried well no in fact I lied
Could be financial suicide but I've got too much pride inside

To hide or slide I'll do as I'll decide and let it ride until I've died
And only then shall I abide this tide
Of catchy little tunes of hip three minute ditties
I wanna bust all your balloons I wanna burn all of your cities

To the ground I've found I will not mess around
Unless I play then hey I will go on all day and hear what I say
I have a prayer to pray that's really all this was
When I'm feeling stuck and need a buck I don't rely on luck

Because the hook brings you back
And I ain't tellin' you no lie
The hook
On that you can rely
