The Feelies - The Boy With The Perpetual Nervousness



The Feelies - The Boy With The Perpetual Nervousness

There's a kid I know but not too well
He doesn't have a lot to say
Well this boy lives right next door and he
Never has nothin' to say

It doesn't seem like he does anything
He never helps out in the yard
He lets his mother carry in groceries
Cause he doesn't plan to work too hard

The boy next door is into better things
As far as I can see
The boy next door is into bigger things
The boy next door is me

All right

Well he's not like the boys we used to have
Not like them at all - oh no
Those ones made their parents proud
This one beats 'em all

The boy next door is into better things
As far as I can see
The boy next door is into bigger things
The boy next door is me

Yeah

The Violent Femmes - Prove My Love

The Violent Femmes - Prove My Love

Just last night
I was reminded of
Just how bad
It had gotten and
Just how sick I had become
But it could change
With this relationship
De-de range
We've all been thru some shit
And if were a thing
I think this things begun

Tell me now
What do I have to do
Tell me now
What do I have to do
Tell me now
What do I have to do
To prove my love to you

Special favors come in 31 flavors
We're out of mints
Pass the life savers
I'm droppin hints
Candy for candy-coated tongue
You'd be so good
So very good for me
What do you think
Tell me honestly
I'm wait wait wait
Wait wait
Waiting for you to come

Tell me now
What do I have to do
Tell me now
What do I have to do
Tell me now
What do I have to do
To prove my love to you

Third verse, same as the first
Just last night
I was reminded of
Just how bad
It had gotten and
Just how sick
I had become
But it could change
With this relationship
De-de range
We've all been thru some shit
And if were a thing
I think this thing's begun

Tell me now
What do I have to do
Tell me now
What do I have to do
What do I have to do
I'do do anything
What do I have to do
I'd do it all
What do I have to do
I'd do it all for you
What do I have to do
I'd climb a mountain
What do I have to do
I'd cross the ocean
What do I have to do
I'd do it it all
What do I have to do
to prove my love to you
