Tom Rosenthal – What's Getting You Down, James? lyrics
[Pre-Chorus]
You ask me for my name
But not who I am
What would I like?
Happiness, no whipped cream, and a purpose

[Chorus]
What's getting you down, James?
What's getting you down?
I don't know who you are
But I know your, I know your, I know your name

[Verse 1]
Get a coffee for the road
Get a coffee for the train
Get a coffee real quick before we leave for outer space
And we finally reach those pearly gates
I say hello to God... and he asks me for my name

[Verse 2]
Solomon steps out for a coffee
Stayed up all night crying softly
Rachel needs a little pick me up
She runs down the road, is hit by luck
Abbi's a nurse and you won't see her worries
Liquefied inside that coffee

[Pre-Chorus]
You ask me for my name
But not how I am
What would I like?
Big love, big hugs, sunsets, and a miracle

[Chorus]
What's getting you down, James?
What's getting you down?
I don't know who you are
But I know your, I know your, I know your name

[Verse 3]
Get a coffee for the dead
Get a coffee for the pain
Get a coffee real quick before we leave for outer space
And we finally reach those funny gates
I say hello to Rob, and he asks me for my name
