Gym Class Heroes - Kid Nothing Vs The Echo Factor - Текст песни

Now I could sit here and baffle you

With shallow babble

And a bunch of punch lines

You probably won't get

Or even use some big words

That you'd have to look up

But, I'm not a teacher

So go ahead and close your book up

I could tell a fairy tale so convincing

And keep a straight face from beginning

To happy ending

I could waste 32 bars telling you how to live

Knowing damn well I used mtv cribs for the blueprint

I could bore you to death with my past relationships

Or a little ditty bout Jack and Dianne

Or I could go back to childhood

Dig up them skeletons

And spit them at you with a catchy hook

Look, I could strike a nerve with some four letter words

That'll make Richard Pryor proud

Or better yet, I could sing a jingle that'll contort and mingle

Every single solitary letter in the alphabet


(I could tell you whatever you want to hear

But if I just said hello would you listen to me?

I could sell a blind man new ears

If I just said hello would you listen to me?

I'm trying hard trying to make it perfectly clear

But I'm dying because their aint nobody listening to me

Been relying on myself on myself for more than 22 years

And I aint crying I just need someone to listen to me

Can I get some reply get maybe some kind of sign

to let me know that you're listening to me?

Just from time to time I get lost in my mind

Its hard to find someone to listen to me

My ears were open when you needed some consoling

I'm hoping till the sound you hear echoes

Every time I say hello)


I could talk about my duds

And my thrift store scores

But that probably wouldn't interest you

But why should it

I mean, I've seen a lot of shit in 22 years

But your feet in my shoes isn't something I recall

And I've been known to drink 22 beers

Before a show cuz

otherwise I probably wouldn't have the balls

I could make references to books I never read

For the sake of sounding conscious

But, that's just obnoxious

I could take off these bandages and

Expose these papercuts

And put them in the air

with both my middle fingers up

or talk about myself in third person

like I'm better than you

cuz there's nothing else better to do

I could attack your character from

Eighty different angles

Cleverly explaining exactly how wack you are

But why do that when it's a well known fact

you buying this cd is potentially feeding me

(come on)

Hello, is there anybody out there?

Hello, is there anybody out there?

Hello, is there anybody out there?

Hello, is there anybody out there?

Hello, is there anybody out there?
