New Song

new song

the who

who are you

you need a new song

i'll set the words up so they tear right at your soul

don't take me too long

but there's a danger that i'll plagiarize something old

my fingers kill me as i play my guitar

'cause i've been chewing down at my nails

my hairline ain't exactly superstar

but there's one thing that never fails

this never fails

i write the same old song with a few new lines

and everybody wants to cheer it

i write the same old song you heard a good few times

admit you really want to hear it

whenever i see you

you always treat me like i'm some kind of perfect man

just 'cause i please you

you explain, but you don't think i can understand

my head is spinning as i scrawl with my pen

'cause i've been pouring vodka in my soul

nothing really ever changes my friend

new lamps for old

new lamps for old

we sing the same old song, just like a vintage car

you can look but you won't ever drive it

we drink the same old wine from a brand new jar

we get hung over, but we always survive it

turn on the radio

love is proclaimed

again and again and again

join in and sing

now, don't be ashamed

let it rain, let it rain, let it rain

let it rain

let it rain

let it rain

let it rain

let it rain~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

rain

we hum the same old lines to a different crowd

and everybody wants to cheer it

we run on endless time to reach a higher cloud

but we never ever seem to get near it

we sing the same old song

same old song

we sing the same old song, just like a vintage car

you can look but you won't ever drive it

we drink the same old wine from a brand new jar

we get hung over, but we always survive it

we sing the same old song...

same old song...
