The Pillows - Strange Chameleon lyrics
Your rating:
I wanna be your gentleman Let's go look for a place where we can change to be like someone else I wanna be your gentleman Let's try aiming for a forest that will hide us so that we won't hurt swimming in a dirty river with dirty me you were really very pretty while bobbing up and down after we finally got to the other side I'm still thinking about it even now always I like being with you and I hate almost everything else a freakish chameleon that can't blend in with its surroundings I want to sing a gentle song and I only need applause enough for one That one would be you I wanna be your gentleman my tail that won't fall off properly is all thorny I wanna be your gentleman you can't treat the scratches, no they won't heal I bet it's just a little longer for sure' holding my breath all the while we even tried lining up in some pointless line It's as if we live on, playing some unending prelude' you say and we laugh as if we're already dead Even if the world is all hit and miss and it's all cause and effect and even if you realize that you just can't go on being the color you were born stand on your head, it still won't change I'm prepared to be destroyed I'm a Strange Chameleon Don't misunderstand, okay I'm not sad or anything like that it's a tie-in, right? loneliness and freedom are, always even if everything is a lie and it's all an alibi and the cat that finally got used to you was only hungry the whole while and it's all just an illusion that'll pop right away with a snap the palm of your hand is still warm The ages keep on spinning round fearlessly and the page that we spent together will be torn and carried away and become a single worthless fossil in history I'm still glad that I met you Bye Bye I'm a Strange Chameleon
