Sophomore Jinx

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Give them what they want, when they want, when they know what they want I'm sick of thinking for myself so I'll play along Stick me in a room full of books, suits, and record deals Be sure to make some coffee with your cream and ask me how I feel It's been a long, lonely wait Oh, we can hardly wait To hear the tunes you have made I'll bet they're really great There's something to the way You find time to create The second album is late Where is it anyway? [Chorus] Here I am, believe the sound You breathe, I'm in up to my knees Disregard everything 'Cause now I'm over my sophomore jinx You're crowding my dollar signs Make everyone sing your little songs I'll call mine My sophomore jinx, get to the back of my line Love turns to hate when I stand a million to one To one... [Verse 2] X amount of dollars for my head, should I say commodity Help me get Madonna off my bed, she's just too drunk to sing Management's explaining, entertaining to the industry They've heard the same spiel a million times, maybe two or three The illusion is sealed The band's all wrapped in chains Wish their vibe was still real Now it all sounds the same tonight All the grooves that they steal All the blues down on Beale Prolific wisdom English poets often write [Chorus] Here I am, believe the sound You breathe, I'm in up to my knees Disregard everything 'Cause now I'm over my sophomore jinx You're crowding my dollar signs Make everyone sing your little words, they don't rhyme My sophomore jinx, you've wasted all of my precious time Love turns to hate when I stand a million to one [Outro] Long, lonely wait Instant replay Yeah yeah, yeah yeah Yeah yeah, yeah yeah Yeah yeah, yeah yeah Yeah yeah, yeah
