Lyrics Eels – New Alphabet
Text:
You know what?
I’m in a good mood today
Well I’m so happy
It’s not yesterday
With plenty o’ tissues
I guess you could say
That I had issues
But it’s looking good
I’ve dug my way out
I’m changing up
What the story’s about
When the world stops making sense
Just taking what you can get
When the people on the street
Start looking like silhouettes
When the words just sound like noise
I need a new alphabet
When the world stops making sense
I make a new alphabet
Small thinking people
With their small thinking ways
I don’t have time
To hear what they say
This is my world
I’m staking my claim
Thanks for the invite
No thanks just the same
It’s looking good now
Full speed ahead
Like tomorrow I’m dead
When the world stops making sense
Just taking what you can get
When the people on the street
Start looking like silhouettes
When the words just sound like noise
I need a new alphabet
When the world stops making sense
I make a new alphabet
I see, everything
It’s crystal clear
It’s here
You know what?
I’m in a good mood today
Well I’m so happy
It’s not yesterday
Man it was brutal
But it’s all in the past
It’s good to know
That it don’t have to last
When the world stops making sense
Just taking what you can get
When the people on the street
Start looking like silhouettes
When the words just sound like noise
I need a new alphabet
When the world stops making sense
I make a new alphabet
