| [00:00.00] | This would not have happened |
| [00:02.72] | If I hadn’t missed my plane |
| [00:04.93] | I would've been there when they told you |
| [00:07.33] | I’m the Rat within the grain |
| [00:09.92] | Within this big misunderstanding now |
| [00:12.19] | and I’m being misunderstood |
| [00:14.97] | I'm thinking someone's trying to fuck with me |
| [00:17.87] | And set fire to my wood |
| [00:19.73] | I wouldn’t want you to want |
| [00:22.54] | To be wanted by me |
| [00:24.98] | I wouldn’t want you to worry |
| [00:27.79] | That You'd be drowned within my sea |
| [00:30.14] | I only wanted to be wonderful |
| [00:33.15] | And wonderful is true |
| [00:34.95] | In truth I only really wanted |
| [00:37.72] | To be wanted by you |
| [00:42.43] | It’s a stupid situation now |
| [00:44.20] | Where everything goes wrong |
| [00:46.51] | If you can't tell if I’m lying |
| [00:49.20] | Then you do not belong |
| [00:51.67] | In my bed |
| [00:52.63] | Go rest your head |
| [00:53.78] | Upon the bones of a bigger man |
| [00:56.15] | He can cover you with rock wool |
| [00:59.01] | And you can close up like a clam |
| [01:01.32] | Because I wouldn’t want you to want |
| [01:04.04] | To be wanted by me |
| [01:06.31] | I wouldn’t want you to worry |
| [01:09.14] | You'd be drowned within my sea |
| [01:11.54] | I only wanted to be wonderful |
| [01:14.54] | And wonderful is true |
| [01:16.19] | In truth I only really wanted |
| [01:18.96] | To be wanted by you |
| [01:25.54] | |
| [01:30.87] | |
| [01:39.58] | |
| [01:42.76] | So go play with your piano |
| [01:44.81] | And write a mediocre song |
| [01:47.31] | About the shell of mediocrity |
| [01:50.23] | And pretend there’s nothing wrong |
| [01:52.60] | I never thought |
| [01:53.71] | You where a chicken shit |
| [01:55.52] | I never thought of you at all |
| [01:57.74] | Until you ask me to be part of it |
| [02:00.44] | And now you're showing me your wall |
| [02:02.63] | I wouldn’t want you to want |
| [02:05.27] | To be wanted by me |
| [02:07.54] | I wouldn’t want you to worry |
| [02:10.48] | You be drowned within my sea |
| [02:12.62] | I only wanted to be wonderful |
| [02:15.70] | And wonderful is true |
| [02:17.59] | In truth I only really wanted |
| [02:20.31] | To be wanted by you |
| [02:25.55] | La la la la |
| [02:39.25] | In truth I only really wanted |
