pet lizard
I wish I was somebody else's pet lizard
they'd feed me crickets for dinner
and I'd stick my tounge out at you
and it wouldn't matter, I'd supposed to
and I'd choose my color
to match exactly how I wasn't feeling
and it would be so easy
to be me but still please you
if I were to sing
sing you my heartsong
would you sing, baby
would you sing along?
the melody -
simple and strong
but the harmony
would either make us
or break me
thought this song was for you babe
but no it's for me
you see I have to hear the words I have to say
and I'll be damned if they can't come out any other way
if I were to sing
sing you my heartsong
would you sing, baby
would you sing along?
the melody -
simple and strong
but the harmony
would either make us
or break me
break me
I wish you could love me for who I am
