Lyrics:

Let’s go

(Verse 1)
The day has come to an end
The sun is over my head
My polyamorous friend
He got me in a mess of trouble again

(Chorus ½)
So just when you think that you’re all right
I’m crawling out from the inside
I never hurt anyone
I never listen at all

(Verse 2)
They’ve come to get me again
The cloud is over my head
My polyamorous friend
He got me in a mess of trouble again

(Chorus)
So just when you think that you’re all right
I’m crawling out from the inside
I never hurt anyone
I never listen at all
Just stay away from the white line
I’d say your worst side’s your best side
I never hurt anyone
I never listen at all

Well, how do you know? (x4)

(Chorus)
Just when you think that you’re all right
I’m crawling out from the inside
I never hurt anyone
I never listen at all
Just stay away from the white line
I’d say your worst side’s your best side
I never hurt anyone
I never listen at all

Let’s go

**This isn't 100% perfect, but I think 
that it's close enough...Try to play along
with the CD if you have any problems.

Good luck & enjoy,
