lyrics

Walked among the animals, stood somewhere in between
Those who like to meditate and those who like to scream
Banging on your door tonight to find out what that means
Tell me it's alright or tell me nothing's as it seems
Yeah, nothing's as it seems

As you wish
Wish you well
You do it backwards; damn near everyone can tell
But do it backwards if it seems to help

Firmly gripped the mic before I ever learned to sing
Only reached for love before the eager days of spring
Summer's sure to end before I get into my swing
So show me all the moves and then just watch me do my thing
Yeah, watch me do my thing.

When the truth begins to show
Baby, I don't want to know
