lyrics

SCATTERBRAIN

Serious moment, serious hair
Serious table, serious chair
Serious clothes covering me
I may shake that serious hand
It feels like it’s already planned
And I’m so tired seriously

You weren’t kidding when you wrote
It’s not even worth a note
If you can’t lose it all

Maybe I’m a scatterbrain
Maybe I’m a scatterbrain
But I can’t afford to be
I can’t afford to be
There it’s said

Serious building, serious hours
Serious people with serious powers
I would rather be with you
I get into to serious trouble
When I burst my serious bubble
And I don’t know what to do

You weren’t kidding when you cried
If you want to take the ride
You need both feet inside

Maybe I’m a scatterbrain
Maybe I’m a scatterbrain
But I can’t afford to be
I can’t afford to be
There it’s said

Oh, let it go
Oh, make it so
Oh, never mind
Oh, you’ll always find

Maybe I’m a scatterbrain
Maybe I’m a scatterbrain
But I can’t afford to be
I can’t afford to be
There it’s said
