Counting Crows
"Love And Addiction"


Put on your bad self
Get out your party dress and fix up your makeup
try to make a good impression
This is a new world - we're all the same here,
Well maybe not the same you know what I mean.
I've got everything that you want
I've got everything and someday I'll be president.
I've everything that you want.
I've got everything except the single thing you really need.
Separate love from addiction
It's not the same I know I see desperation pulling my strings.
Hey eliza now what do you want?
I play piano and I sing like a hummingbird
and oh I forgot that hummingbirds don't sing,
It doesn't matter really you know what I mean.
I've got everything that you want
I've got everything and its a brand new world Eliza.
I've got everything that you want.
I've got everything except the single thing you really need.
Sail away blood and rejection .
they isolate.
I know I see, a generation staring back at me
Wasted away.... wasted my time
This picture you see is nothing like
the one I wanted painted of me.
Eliza says "it's all right with me,
if you're sure ... it wouldn't be the first time,
you know it's happened a couple of times before and
I don't even expect much anymore and anyway...
it's not as if I was waiting for you
to come and make it all okay".
Shut away to to wing blood and rejection
they isolate I know
I see visions of people grabbing hold of me.
Wasted away... wasted my time.
This picture you see is nothing like the
one I wanted painted of me.
Put on your bad self, get out your party dress
and fix up your makeup
try and make a good impression.
