carried away - graham smith & kgw lyrics

sometimes i feel like manoj bajpai
like when i say “h-llo” and “goodbye” at the same time
and as i watch the scenery trot by
there’s a fire below and behind my glazed eyes

and so i start to wiggle in my seat
quaff another draught to put my heart to sleep
and take it to the streets, making quite a scene
quietly obscene

and as the nighttime fades into murky light
i pace and bellow and imbibe and cry and cry
until the sun and shade and p-ssers-by
greet a humble fellow in a pile by the riverside

you’ve got another week to sharpen up the speech
to make your life worth leading
be it mercifully brief
it’s better than a right good beating
see, it’s much better than what you’re feeling

me, i’m gonna crack under the pressure
and let my spine relax
guard and attack in equal measure
or just watch the time elapse
but if you know a way that doesn’t take forever
i’ll talk to you when you get back
and i’ll be godd-mned if it doesn’t make me a better man

so you’d better hand me one for the hard road ahead
and two for the midnight show
i’m lost in a barcode again
all out of insight, put up a big front if you want a big fight
i’d like a little one, but i’m sure i’ll get by
yeah, i’ll be just fine
i’ll keep it all inside, then strike with a hit and run

because it’s all beyond my comprehension now
i can’t imagine what’ll happen if i get a sentence out
will you hem, will you haw, will you tell me what went wrong?
will you giggle, then guffaw, then pretend there’s nothing happening at all?

or will you take it out of context and inflate the facts
until they’re all morbidly convex, and what kind of game is that?
oh, i know you know i know everything’s more complex
than you could have ever known
but i still believe that being glib and prolix is the only way to go

so take it as it comes, maybe it’ll come back to you
or maybe nothing makes you feel that way, so be dumb
sing it like you sung last time through and be done with it
wash your hands and say no, no, no
bang it like a drum, get your dander up one last time
maybe you’ll be better for it
take another punch, take another plunge, do it right
put your back into it, i know you can do it
you know you can do it

but can i say, can i say?
someday you’re gonna get carried away
and on that day you’ll get caught in the sway of a garish display
the champagne sprays, the campaign changes
somebody’s gonna get married today
but le jayenge, le jayenge
don’t get carried away
don’t get carried away
don’t get carried away
don’t get carried away
don’t get carried away
don’t get carried away
don’t get carried away
don’t get carried away
