Well, I heard you crying loud, all the way across town. You've been searching for that someone, and it's me out on the prowl, as you sit around feeling sorry for yourself.
Don't get lonely now, and dry your whining eyes. I'm just roaming for the moment, sleazin' my back yard, so don't get so uptight, you've been thinkin' about ditchin' me.
No time to search the world around, 'cause you know where I'll be found, when I come around, when I come around.
I heard it all before, so, don't knock down my door. I'm a loser and a user, so I don't need no accuser to try and slag me down because I know you're right.
So, go do what you like. Make sure you do it wise. You may find out that your selfdoubt means nothing was ever there. You can't go forcing something if it's just not right.
No time to search the world around, 'cause you know where I'll be found, when I come around, when I come around.
No time to search the world around, 'cause you know where I'll be found, when I come around, when I come around, when I come around, when I come around.
Ordinary Day Written by Doyle/McCann of Great Big Sea
I’ve got a smile on my face and I’ve got four walls around me. Got the sun in the sky, all the waters surround me. Oh, you know, yeah, I win now and sometimes I lose. I’ve been battered, but I never bruise. It’s not so bad.
And I say way-hey-hey, it’s just an ordinary day, and it’s all your state of mind. At the end of the day, you’ve just got to say, it’s alright.
Janie sings on the corner, what keeps her from dyin'? Let 'em say what they want, she won’t stop tryin'. Oh, you know, she might stumble, if they push her ’round. She might fall, but she’ll never lie down. It's not so bad.
And I say way-hey-hey, it’s just an ordinary day, and it’s all your state of mind. At the end of the day, you’ve just got to say, it’s alright.
It's alright, it's alright. It's alright.
In this beautiful life, there’s always some sorrow. And it’s a double edged knife, but there’s always tomorrow. Oh, you know, it’s up to you now if you sink or swim. Just keep the faith that your ship will come in. It’s not so bad.
And I say way-hey-hey, it’s just an ordinary day, and it’s all your state of mind. At the end of the day, you’ve just got to say, I say way-hey-hey, it’s just an ordinary day, and it’s all your state of mind. At the end of the day, you’ve just got to say, it’s alright.
It's alright, it's alright.
'Cause I've got a smile on my face and I've got four walls around me.
Stop, drop and roll and I will tell you where I'm coming from You've done a lot of yelling pointed at my eardrum I'll offer all of me that you can lay your eyes on I'll get right back to you once I get my disguise on
Hearts on fire, you'll learn End up with heartburn
Wind me up, my dear Had it up to here Wind it up
I can't believe that you'd believe that I would fake it Wait - unless you count the things I said when we were naked Run, run away from everything we'd ever hoped for I can't believe that this is what people elope for
Throw your sticks and stones Throw your mobile phone
Wind me up, my dear Had it up to here Wind it up
If you are leaving then I wish you luck I hope someone can make your heart warm I was a baby when I learned to suck But you have raised it to an art form
Yes I'm out of line But you're out of your mind
Wind me up, my dear Had it up to here Wind me up, my dear Had it up to here
Consequence Free Written by Doyle/McCann of Great Big Sea
Na Na Na Na Na Ne Na Na Na Oh, Na Na Na Na Na Ne Na Na Na
Wouldn't it be great, if no one ever got offended Wouldn't it be great to say what's really on your mind I have always said 'all the rules are made for bending' And if I let my hair down, would that be such a crime?
I wanna be consequence free I wanna be where nothing needs to matter I wanna be consequence free Just sing, Na Na Na Na Na Ne Na Na Na Sing, Na Na Na Na Na Ne Na Na Na
I could really use, to lose my Catholic conscience Cuz I'm getting sick of feeling guilty all the time I won't abuse it, Yeah I've got the best intentions For a little bit of anarchy but not the hurting kind
I wanna be consequence free I wanna be where nothing needs to matter I wanna be consequence free Just sing, Na Na Na Na Na Ne Na Na Na Oh, Na Na Na Na Na Ne Na Na Na
I couldn't sleep at all last night cause I had so much on my mind I'd like to leave it all behind, but you know it's not that easy
No, but for just one night...
Wouldn't it be great, if the band just never ended We could stay out late and we would never hear last call We wouldn't need to worry about approval or permission, we could — slip off the edge and never worry about the fall
I wanna be consequence free I wanna be where nothing needs to matter I wanna be consequence free Just sing, Na Na Na Na Na Ne Na Na Na Oh, Na Na Na Na Na Ne Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Ne Na Na Na
