Matthew Sweet – Write Your Own Song lyrics
I guess I live in a world you'll never get a glimpse inside of
If the thought of me selling out gets you excited
Do you think everything that nobody else has thought of
Do you feel everything that no one else can feel
I do too

Why don't you write your own song
If mine doesn't do it for you
You might get it all wrong
Or you might create the hit
You wish that I would write for you
'cause I haven't been able to do what you need

And you're right there fighting for what I find appalling
Bringing me further down than I've already fallen
And you tell me that I only have one chance to win
And you only want to take me where I've never been
I'm with you

Why don't you write your own song
And I won't have to hear it
When you get it all wrong
I'll find a way to clear it
From my memory of you
You just do what you have to do
'cause I'm not listening

Why don't you write your own song
If mine doesn't do it for you
You might get it all wrong
Or you might create the hit

Why don't you write your own song
I'll find a way to clear it
From my memory of you
You just do what you have to do
'cause I'm not listening

    Look, if you had, one opportunity, to seize anything you ever wanted, in one moment, would you grab it? Or just let it slip?
    Yo, yo.
    His palms are sweaty, knees weak arms are heavy, there's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti. He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready, to drop bombs, but he keeps on forgetting what he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud, he opens his mouth but the words wont come out, he's chokin' how? Everybody's jokin' now, time's up, over BLAO! Snap back to reality, oop there goes gravity, oop there goes rabbit, he choked, but he wont have it, he's dope, he knows that but he's broke, to home that's when it's, back to the lab again, bod this old rhapsody la da dee da dum da dum. You better lose yourself in the music, the moment, you own it, you better never let it go, (go) you only get one shot do not miss your chance to blow, this opportunity comes once in a lifetime, you better lose yourself in the music, the moment, you own it, you better never let it go, (go) you only get one shot do not miss your chance to blow, this opportunity comes once in a lifetime. *Fade music*
