If It Was Up To Me Lyrics

(I'd be sleeping now if it was up to me)

Sly fox you really tricked me
Now you've got me on a leash
Throw me a bone
Just drive me home or give me something good to read
I am a nail stuck in a wall
Without a string around my neck tied to a frame
Vacant with no war to wage
Can't teach a boy what he don't wanna learn

I'd be sleeping now if it was up to me
Wouldn't hear a sound if it was up to me
If it was up to me...
As empty as this summer town street in January
Without a shoe pressing the pavement
Walking by me patiently
And there's a song charming my ears infinitely
Motherly it gently sings
In my headphones whispering
Making sure that I am not alone

I'd be sleeping now if it was up to me
Wouldn't hear a sound if it was up to me
If it was up to me

Fill me,
I'm drying out and thin
Save me,
I know you'd kill it.
