John Butler Trio - Good excuse

Tekst :

All around I see raining
Things don t seem to go my way
Got a dark cloud that s hanging
And it seems to follow me

Oh won t you just wake up
feel the humming
This cruel world is killing you
better start running
Catch up with your life, catch on up
Before the whole thing is through

Have you once? Have you twice?
Have you even considered
it be really good for you
To go out and go on
take another better look around

You are just another white boy
Thinking you re so hardcore
Take step outside see what s shaking in the real
world

Go take a step outside see what s shaking in the real
world

But you don t know
how my heart laments
I really got a good excuse
to complain
My parents got divorced
Can t heal the pain

And now there is only cheap regrets
I guess that s just the way it be
Is it the world or how I see me

Boy now you are really, really bugging
Yes you are bugging me,
can t you just shut right up
Your cup is overflowing, overflowing
And you think it is indeed

You don t even know what side
you are fighting for
Boy won t you turn your game boy off
Start pretending
it s you against the world
I am sick and I am tried of hearing

I really got a good excuse to complain
My parents got divorced
Can t heal the pain

And now there is only cheap regrets
I guess that s just the way it be
Is it the world or how I see me

Go take a step outside see what s shaking in the real
world

    The color of my eyes

    Take back that photograph it breaks my heart
    And I will wait by the telephone
    While the silence pressures my eardrum
    I found a black and white with a person smiling sad at me
    Now I know can t get back that photograph once it s been seen

    Promise you won t let me fall...

    This land is mine

    From behind these walls I hear your song, oh sweet words
    the music that you play lights up my world
    the sweetest that I ve heard
    could it be that I ve been touched and turned, oh lord please
    finally, finally things are changing

    this land is mine but I...

    Hearts fail, young hearts fail,
    Anytime, pressurised,
    Overheat, overtired.
    Take it quick, take it neat,
    Clasp your hands, touch your feet.
    Take it quick, take it neat,
    Take it quick, take it neat.

    Hearts fail, young hearts fail,
    Anytime, wearing down,
    On the run, underground,
    Put your hand where it...

    Except one

    If you find a key to every door
    except one
    if you win every war
    except one
    if you solve all your problems
    except one
    if you find every answer
    except one
    don t come to me
    don t ask me why
    cos I don t know...
