Emily

(album: The Origin Of Love - 2012)

Emily, Emily

Emily, can't you write a happy song
Get your ass to number one
You could try a little harder
Emily, you could be a millionaire
But you're so full of hot air
Gonna end up like your father

Emily, you can't leave your life to chance
Get a boy and learn to dance
Be a girl like any other
Emily, are you stuck up? Are you gay?
If you are, well that's OK
'Cause it doesn't even matter
Emily

Emily, it's your life
And you can't live it twice
One day you'll understand
Emely, take my hand
Emily, I love you
And I know you do too
You never make no sense
Screaming at me in French

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?
Shut up listen to me
Dance with me Emily
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?
Shut up listen to me
Dance with me Emily

Emily, you got so much in your life
Me I got no one's advice
Don't you know you got it easy
Emily, what you smoking, what's that stench
Who you screaming out in French
Did you really think you had me

Emily, that's enough, do as you're told
Acting like you're eight years old
I give up it's not worth trying
Emily, one day I will end up dead
That's the only thing I've said
That would ever get her smiling
Emily

Emily, it's your life
And you can't live it twice
One day you'll understand
Emily take my hand
Emily, I love you
And I know you do too
You never make no sense
Screaming at me in French

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?
Shut up listen to me
Dance with me Emily
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?
Shut up listen to me
Dance with me Emily

Emily, live your life in a balloon
Lock yourself up in your room
So the world can never reach ya
Emily, am I speaking Japanese?
Got me falling on my knees
Got me praying to Saint Peter

Emily, see the price I have to pay
I would give my life away
If I knew that I could reach ya
Emily, why d'you make this hard for me
It's not the way it's meant to be
I don't ever wanna hate ya

Emily dance
Emily dance, dance, dance
Emily dance
Emily dance, dance, dance
Emily dance
Emily dance, dance, dance
Emily dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance
Emily

Emily, it's your life
And you can't live it twice
One day you'll understand
Emily take my hand
Emily, I love you
And I know you do too
You never make no sense
Screaming at me in French

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?
Shut up listen to me
Dance with me Emily
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?
Shut up listen to me
Dance with me Emily
Emily dance
