Pulp – Everybody's Problem lyrics

Standing there before you
defences thrown aside
I thought I heard you laughing
butwhen I asked you said you'd cried
I wanted to believe you
Yes I wanted to feel strong
but looking at my picture
I realised I must be wrong
Sounds so weak
it sounds sofey
it doesn't sound
like what I meant to say
I speak to you
with a borrowedtongue
Shall I stop right now
or blindly carry on?

Choose one [?
]
but I'm noteveryone
I only have one viewpoint
don't talk to me of right or wrong
And didn't Ioften tell you
oh didn't I often say
that something in your manner
that really takesmy breath away?

It's not weak
to show I care
I know of those
who wouldn't evenbear
The fact remains
I feel a need
Is it love
or is it simply greed?

It's notweak
to show I care
I know of those
who wouldn't even bear
The fact remains
Ifeel a need
Is it love
or is it simply greed?

You choose what you believe in
asfar as I'm concerned
But one thing I can tell you
is innocence cannot be learned
Iwish you'd stop me talking
oh I wish you'd shut my mouth
Well the reason why I tellyou
is I think that you could help me out
and if you do then there's no doubt
thatall my problems won't just fly away. then there's no doubt
that all my problems won't just fly away.
