Toad the Wet Sprocket - Something to Say Lyrics

He's got a thing 'bout losing control
Carries it a mile just to see how far he'll go
Brushes up his chops as he tries to fake a smile
A friend indeed but what I need someone who'll stay a while
Someone to stay a while

You can bend my ear
We will talk all day
Just make sure I'm around
When you've finally got something to say

Drops hints but he won't tell you what's really on his mind
But I know if I look it's easy to find
He's got a way with his anger, the way he lets it show
Like the smoldering smoke when the fire's left the coals
Fire's left the coals

You can take me down
To show me your home
Not the place where you live
But the place where you belong

You can bend my ear
We will talk all day
Just make sure I'm around
When you've finally got something to say

And what are you meaning by 'I don't deserve this life?'

Well his door is always open, he's always got the time
To give a little something even though he gets behind
Your trips become his and your lives are intertwined
But like the horse with the junkie it's all in your mind
It's all in your mind

You can take me down
You can show me your home
Not the place where you live
But the place where you belong

You can bend my ear
We will talk all day
Just make sure I'm around
When you've finally got something to say
Finally got something, finally got something
Finally got something to say
