Clinging to love, escape a father and mother
She offers some other way out of the whole
She"s overachieving, chasing her dreams
And comedy slowly, it"s out of control
Scrap the blues, if the blues don"t work
Flash your teeth, though the inside hurts
Scrap the blues, if the blues don"t work
To make you feel better just because it feels worse
All of the books and all in a boat and
Nowhere to run, God, this is out of control
You wait for something to undo these feelings
Waiting and waiting but it"s out of control
Scrap the blues, if the blues don"t work
Flash your teeth, though the inside hurts
Scrap the blues, if the blues don"t work
To make you feel better just because it feels worse
You"re never losing life
No, you"re never losing life
She offers some other way out of the whole
She"s overachieving, chasing her dreams
And comedy slowly, it"s out of control
Scrap the blues, if the blues don"t work
Flash your teeth, though the inside hurts
Scrap the blues, if the blues don"t work
To make you feel better just because it feels worse
All of the books and all in a boat and
Nowhere to run, God, this is out of control
You wait for something to undo these feelings
Waiting and waiting but it"s out of control
Scrap the blues, if the blues don"t work
Flash your teeth, though the inside hurts
Scrap the blues, if the blues don"t work
To make you feel better just because it feels worse
You"re never losing life
No, you"re never losing life
