Think about your troubles
Sit beside the breakfast table
Think about your troubles
Pour yourself a cup of tea
And think about the bubbles
You can take your teardrops
And drop them in a teacup
Take them down to the riverside
And throw them over the side
To be swept up by a current
Then taken to the ocean
To be eaten by some fishes
Who were eaten by some fishes
And swallowed by a whale
Who grew so old
He decomposed
He died and left his body
To the bottom of the ocean
Now evverybody knows
That when a body decomposes
The basic elements
Are given back to the ocean
And the sea does what it oughta
And soon there's salty water
(That's not too good for drinking)
'Cause it tastes just like a teardrop
(So they run it through a filter)
And it comes out from a faucet
(And is poured into a teapot)
Which is just about to bubble
Now think about your troubles
Monkey
Counting Crows
All dressed up
No place to go
Hey monkey, when you gonna show your face around me?
I know all the wrongs and rights
And I just want a little light to fall on me
Hey monkey, where you been?
This lonely spiral I've been in
Hey monkey, when can we begin?
Hey monkey, where you been?
We'll I'm all messed up
That's nothing new
Hey monkey, when you open up your blue eyes,
I don't know if I'm wide awake or dreaming
But all I ever need is everything
Hey monkey, where you been?
This lonely spiral I've been in
Hey monkey, when can we begin?
Hey monkey, where you been?
Just get the world off your shoulders
and close your pretty blue eyes
Hey monkey, what's life without an occasional surprise?
Got nowhere but home to go
Got Ben Folds on my radio right now
I'm in trouble for the things I need
Hey monkey don't you want to be needed too?
Hey monkey, where you been?
This lonely spiral I've been in
Hey monkey, when can we begin?
Hey monkey, where you been?
OH YEAH, FUCK IT! YEAH!
I've got a killer's blood
Running deep inside my veins (Down in my veins)
Don't expect you to understand
I was born without a name (Your name)
I see right through you
Your opinions are a fucking joke (*laughs*)
I'll crucify you on a silver spoon
I hope you choke!
I'm tired of trying to please the world
That spins around me.
This time I'm doing it for me
And me alone.
I don't need anyone
Don't think I ever did.
Not trying to be selfish
Just doing what I know...
I'm a MENACE! (RIGHT?!)
I'll break the fuck away
Swear to god that I don't care (I swear to Christ)
I'll die a lonely death
'Cause I know that life ain't fair (Ain't fair at all)
I can't pretend that I am someone that I'm not
I live for me, myself
You can't convince me
That I'm wrong!
I'm tired of trying to please the world
That spins around me.
This time I'm doing it for me
And me alone.
I don't need anyone
Don't think I ever did.
Not trying to be selfish
Just doing what I know...
I'm a MENACE! (RIGHT?!)
I'm tired of trying to please the world

You call me a dog well that's fair enough
'Cause it ain't no use to pretend
You're wrong
When you call me out I can't hide anymore
I have no disguise you can't see through
Well you say it's bad luck
To have fallen for me
What can I do to make it good for you
You wore me out like an old winter coat
Trying to be safe from the cold
But when it's my time to throw
The next stone
I'll call you beautiful if I call at all,
You call me a dog
You tell me I'm low 'cause I've slept on the floor
And out in the woods with the badgers & wolves
You threw me out 'cause I went digging for gold
And I came home with a handful of coal
But when it's my time to throw the next stone
I'll call you beautiful if I call at all
And when it's my time to call your bluff
I'll call you beautiful or leave it alone
You call me a dog
Well that's fair enough
It doesn't bother me as long as you know
Bad luck will follow you
If you keep me on a leash and
You drag me along
and when it's my time to throw
The next stone
I'll call you beautiful if I call at all
And when it's my time to call your bluff
I'll call you beautiful or leave it alone
You call me a dog
