VERSE 1
It’s just a figure of speech
I can’t claim to know your geography
But oh
I have all the clues
Shot down ??? [not sure what’s said here]
You can’t have an effect
If you’ve never had a cause
It’s true
That I don’t know the rules
BRIDGE
And all the time we’ve been talking
I’ve been thinking
CHORUS
Oh what a waste of my time
I’ve been going out of my mind
What was I thinking
Coming here tonight
Said a little too much
Had a little too much.
VERSE 2
Knock back ??? […or here]
And don’t say to me
That you wouldn’t understand
It’s true
I’m barely out of school
Attack, better take it all back
And make it all up
Ignoring all the facts
It’s true
That I don’t know the rules
BRIDGE
And all the time we’ve been talking
I’ve been thinking
CHORUS
[SOLO]
CHORUS
CHORUS
(I’ve been thinking)
Oh what a waste of my time
I’ve been going out of my mind
What was I thinking
Coming here tonight
Said a little too much
Had a little too much.
OUTRO
We fell outta touch
It wasn’t enough
