lyrics

Nightstand
I got your cd on my bedside table buddy
and I listen to you every night
I don’t understand what you’re talkin’ about
But I know the feeling is right
You just pick the chords and your hand keeps strumming
You’ve listened to tunes all your life
And I know if you keep doin’ what yer doin’
You’ll never have to work in your life
Believing in all the words that you say
Like it’s really gonna change my life
They’d clothe me in the finest furs and jewelry
But I’m just not that type
You know it’s good to run into people like you
Keepin’ it real all the time
With all the problems in the world today
Who wants to listen to mine?

Believing that a spaceship will come to my rescue, take me up in its beam..Move to a world where all they do is sleep, and everyone lives in their dreams
I got your cd on my bedside table buddy
and I listen to you every night
I don’t understand what you’re talkin’ about
I don’t understand what you’re talkin’ about
I don’t understand what you’re talkin’ about
But I know the feeling is right
I know the feeling is right
I know the feeling is right
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah…
