lyrics

PLAYED HIDE AND SEEK SO LONG TO FIND YOU
THE GAME BELONGED TO NO ONE ELSE
YOU WERE THE VOYEUR IN THE MIRROR
I SAW YOUR REFLECTION IN MYSELF

BUT TIME HAS A WAY OF CHANGING PICTURES
I SAW THIS ONE OF YOU, AN ANGEL
BECOME A VULTURE PICKIN' CROW

AND AS YOU FLOAT DOWN THE BAYOU
AMONG THE STICKS AND STONES
I HEAR THE NAMES THAT THEY CALL YOU
AND THERE'S A PAIN THAT DOESN'T SHOW...

(CHORUS 1)
BUT I WANNA KNOW
WHERE DO YOU GET OFF FEELIN' SO HAPPY
DON'T SAY IT'S LOVE
IT'LL MAKE ME LAUGH
UNTIL IT HURTS

II.
SLEEPING ALONE CAN BE CATHARTIC
A SIDE OF THE BED YOU'VE NEVER KNOWN
YOUR SLEEPING AROUND LEFT YOU LETHARGIC
LIKE SOME DISEASE THAT'S IN YOUR BODY
LEAVING LESIONS ON MY SOUL

I'LL NEVER SMOKE THAT PEACE PIPE
I'LL NEVER BREAK THAT CODE
I'LL SEE THE MOON IN YOUR DAYLIGHT
I'LL WATCH THE SUN GO DOWN AT DAWN

(CHORUS 2)
WHAT I WANNA KNOW
IS WHERE DO YOU GET OFF FEELIN SO HAPPY
DON'T SAY IT'S LOVE
IT'LL MAKE ME LAUGH
UNTIL IT HURTS
AND I JUST GOTTA SAY
YOU'LL NEVER MAKE IT OUT THAT WAY
I TRIED TO GET BACK
YOU HAD TO MOVE ON
LIKE IT WASN'T YOUR FAULT (SOLO)

CHORUS 2 REPEAT

LAST LINE IS:
TIME WON'T GIVE BACK
TIME WILL MOVE ON
IT'S NOBODY'S FAULT
IT'S NOBODY'S FAULT
IT'S NOBODY'S FAULT

King Mixer Chicago, Illinois

King Mixer is both musical ensemble and performing alias of Chicago singer/songwriterEric Howell. LP studio guests feature members of Smoking Popes, NRBQ, BoDeans and Off Broadway. At a moment when guitars are fighting for a place in modern music King Mixer offers up deliberately schizophrenic rock, which grows more satisfying with each genre-defying turn, written and produced by Howell. ... more
