Barenaked LadiesOne Week
It's been, one week since you looked at me, |
It's been three days since the afternoon, You realized it's not my fault, Not a moment too soon. Yesterday you'd forgiven me but And now I sit back and wait Till you say you're sorry. Chickity China the Chinese chicken Have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin' Watchin' X-Files with no lights on We're dans la mainson I hope the Smoking Man's in this one Like Harrison Ford, I'm getting frantic Like Sting, I'm tantric Like Snickers, guaranteed to satisfy. Like Kurasawa, I make mad films Okay, I don't make films But if I did they'd have a Samurai Like Skywalker, gotta big hunch Hey, that's my lunch Yoda's a really, really old guy Gonna get a set a' better clubs Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs Just so my irons aren't always flying off the back-swing Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon 'Cause the cartoon has got the boom anime babes How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad Tryin' hard not to smile though I feel bad I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral Can't understand what I mean? Well, you soon will I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve I have a history of taking off my shirt. It's been, one week since you looked at me, Dropped your arms to the sides and said, "I'm sorry." Five days since I laughed at you and said, "You just did just what I thought you were gonna do" Three days since the living room, We realized we're both to blame, but what could we do? Yesterday you just smiled at me 'Cause, it'll still be two days Till we say we're sorry. |

"I never thought I'd finish that song," Robertson recalls. "As soon as I started I was afraid to write it.
Hip-hip and rapping and freestyling have been a part of what we do as a live band since the
beginning, and we're big fans of that kind of music. But it's never really reared its head on any
of our recordings, although it's a huge part of what we do live We're always freestyling."
