There's a restaurant down the street Where hungry people like to eat I could walk, but I'll just drive It's colder than it looks outside. It's like a dream - you try to remember but it's gone.., [S] Hi folks this is Steven Page. [T] This is Tyler Stewart. [S] We're two members of Barenaked Ladies, and although you *thought* you were downloading our new single, what you're actually downloading is an advertisement for our new album 'Maroon', comes out September 12th, and after that point I'm sure you can download lots of stuff from our record but until then you're just going to get lots of stuff with us bugging you. [T] We fooled you, huh? We're sneaky like that...you can never trust a Canadian. Next thing you know, we'll be supplying your natural resources! ...then ya Try to scream but it only comes out as a yawn, when ya Try to see the world beyond your front door. Take your time cos the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile, when ya Realise that with a guy my size it might take a while, just to Try to figure out what all this is for. It's the perfect time of day To throw all your cares away Put the sprinkler on the lawn And run through with my gym shorts on. Take a drink right from the hose And change into some drier clothes Climb the stairs up to my room Sleep away the afternoon. It's like a dream - you try to remember but it's gone, then ya Try to scream but it only comes out as a yawn, when ya Try to see the world beyond your front door. [T] Hello? Hi? H-? Hello? If you just- Would you- Could- Could you please leave a m- Ah. If you'd just let me leave a - At the sound of the - Uh. Ah. Thanks. Take your time cos the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile, when ya Realise that with a guy my size it might take a while, just to Try to figure out what all this is for. Pinch Me Pinch Me Cos I'm still asleep. Please God Tell Me That I'm still asleep On an evening such as this It's hard to tell if I exist If I Packed a car and leave this town Who'll notice that I'm not around? I could hide out under there I just made you say 'underwear' I could leave but I'll just stay All my stuff's here anyway. It's like a dream - you try to remember but it's gone, then ya Try to scream but it only comes out as a yawn, when ya Try to see the world beyond your front door. [S] If you're listening? We're trying to get our song on Napster, but we don't know how to do it....errr....we're Barenaked Ladies and we're trying to....Ty? Can you just press that over there? Take your time cos the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile, when ya Realise that with a guy my size it might take a while, just to Try to figure out what all this is for. Try to figure out what all this is for. Try to see the world beyond your front door. Try to figure out what all this is for.
