Something’s Burning (Jam & Chat) lyrics
by The Stone Roses
[Intro]
Hello, calling any musos out there
Any musos out there
Bacon is reduced by fifteen pence a pound this week
*laughter*
King Edward's potatoes down four pence in the pound
Eight items or less please use till number five
Easy on that pick Mani
Easy boy
It's pretty damn loud
Sehcnarb eht era uoy dnA
[Verse 1]
Don't count your chickens, 'cause they're never gonna hatch
You can't catch a monkey with a shotgun and a sack
'Cause you're too dumb, baby
You can't see the wood for the trees
'Cause you're too slow, baby
You just couldn't get off your knees
[Verse 1]
Don't count your chickens, 'cause they're never gonna hatch
You can't catch a monkey with a shotgun and a sack
'Cause you're too dumb, baby
You can't see the wood for the trees
'Cause you're too slow, baby
You just couldn't get off your knees
[Chorus]
What you gonna do with the rest of your life?
How you gonna change and make it alright?
What you gonna do and what you gonna say?
You're not the only one who's feelin' like it's slippin' away
[Post-Chorus]
It doesn't pay to be selfish and silent
It doesn't cost to be someone
I am the vine
And you are the branches
[Outro]
Yeah
Yeah, I lost my [?] in that one
