Macy Gray Lyrics

Album: HOW LIFE IS

Do Something

[Verse One:]

 Like Cleopatra 

 Got the masses at my feet

 Got a living dwell 

 Down on easy street

 I'm the latest craze (oh yeah)

 And if you stay a while

 Inevitably

 You gone be bitin' my style

 In your later days (well, well, well)

 Let me tell you what is fact

 And what is true

 I get high and that aint that much to do

 I'm always in a daze (uh huh)

 That was just a dream I had

 Last night in my bubble bath

 Next to my wishing well

 Oh yeah, you betta

 

 [Chorus:]

 Get up, get out

 And do somethin'

 Don't let the days of your life pass you by

 You got to

 Get up, get out

 And do somethin'

 How will you make it if you never even try

 Get up, get out

 And do somethin'

 Can't spend your whole life tryin' to get high

 You got to get up, get out

 And do somethin'

 'Cause you and I have to do

 For you and I

 

 [Verse Two:]

 What's been happenin'

 How you doin'

 Where you been

 I'm further behind now

 Than I was back then

 Lost in some old maze (uh huh)

 Some years have passed me by

 All I want is to go get high

 I'll get it together

 Some other day

 

 [Bridge:]

 In my dreams I dwell (uh huh huh)

 'Cause all my dreams are swell (woo, woo, woo)

 You would too

 If you could see them

 That's what I know

 I gotta go

 Get up

 Get out and (yeah)

 

 [Verse Three:]

 Heaven's at my feet

 Got a living dwell 

 Down on easy street

 I'm the latest craze (uh huh)

 It's just a dream I had

 Last night in my bubble bath

 Next to my wish--yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah

 

 [Chorus]

 

 Why don't you do somethin'?

 [repeat with chorus til end]
