Give It All Away Songtext

von World Party

Don't ask me who I am,
'Cause maybe I don't know.
Just someone with a half a brain
And nagging doubts won't go.
But it seems to me you're klilling
All the things you love the most,
All the way down to the coast.
I don't want to see you give it all away.
It ain't here to stay.
That's what we're talking 'bout.

Read the morning papers, seems like nothing turns out right.
Take a deep breath, yeah, it knocks out your lights.
Hypocrites and zealots are struggling for the throne.
King and queens and presidents younger than the Stones.
Give them all away.

Here's a list of things oe day you won't know you've missed:
Naked in the river.
Watching planets as they kiss.
USrfers in the sunlight.
Dances on the sea.
Nothin' on your mind.
Spirit so free.
I just don't want to see you give it all away.
'Cause it ain't here to stay,
And you can't take it anyway.

Cake it and eat it,
That's what you want.
And right now!
But that slice is going to kill you,
And it's time that you found out.
I just don't want to see you give it all away.
'Cause it ain't here to stay,
And you can't take it anyway.
That's what we're talking 'bout.
