Sometimes
 They say that love  is blind
 But I think  dumb is what they had  in mind
 I could let  it go, but I'd rather  know
 If I sit  around, will another  show
 SometimeS
 I get to fly so high
 That the sun burns my wings, but I will fly
 Just a little too far, cause thats where you are
 And I won't bring you down, believe in me
 sometimes
 I like to sit around
 and just contemplating sitting round
 I could stay in bed, like my momma said
 Don't just do something, sit around instead
 Sometimes
 If I may say myself
 I'm not bad at life, I'm not good as well
 And though life goes on, I can plainly see
 Just what is it for, if its not for me ?
 Sometimes
 Though its a big surprise
 I made compromise the thing I most desire
 I can say with pride, hold my head up high
 That I had a great Idea but nevermind.
Oh...babe...
 I'm going nowhere,  nowhere  is where I  wanna be
And  I'm good for nothing
 Nothing  is good  enough for me
Anything,  anything can come to anybody
 Everything,  everything can come to someone,  sometime
 Oh,  please..
 I'm good for nothing.
 Nothing  is good  enough for me.
 Anything,  anything can come to anybody
 Everything,  everything can come to somone,  sometime
 Sometimes
 Opportunity passes right by me didn't even slow,
 I can't breathe and think and I need a drink,
 All this common sense made a fool of me.
 Sometimes
 I like to sit around
 and just contemplating sitting round
 I can stay in bed like my momma said
 Don't just do something, sit around instead
 Sometimes
 I get to fly so high
 That the sun burns my wings, but I will fly
 Just a little too far, cause thats where you are
 And I won't bring you down, believe in me
 Sometimes
 I get me all confused, and the resons why are confuseing too
 I could be with you, try to sort it out
 If I tell the truth, I like to lie about
 Sometimes
 Though its a big surprise
 I made compromise the thing I most desire
 I can say with pride, hold my head up high
 That I had a great idea but nevermind.
 Sometimes
 I like to sit around
 and just contemplating sitting round
 Although life goes on, I can plainly see
 All this common sense made a fool of me
I  don't want to live but I can't  resist
I  got some reasons and I've  made amends
I'm  gonna drown before my ship  comes in
And  I forgot to ring my mum  again
and  life ain't good without cigarettes
