Lyrics Hiss Golden Messenger – Katy (You Don’t Have To Be Good Yet)

Text:

I was stoned when it hit me:
You don’t love me like you used to
Or your love for me
Has turned into a fantasy

If it was only temporary
Can’t say that I blame ya
I’m a little bit lost
And a whole lotta things you can’t hang with

You can run from the roses
You can tumble on the Bowery
But if you turn from the world
There are colors you’ll never see

Is it the same for ya?
Is it busted beyond repair?
And if we don’t save it,
Does it vanish into thin air?

Katy
You don’t have to feel bad
Come around, lay it all down
You don’t I was stoned when it hit me:
You don’t love me like you used to
Or your love for me
Has turned into a fantasy
If it was only temporary
Can’t say that I blame ya
I’m a little bit lost
And a whole lotta things you can’t hang with

You can run from the roses
You can tumble on the Bowery
But if you turn from the world

There are colors you’ll never see

Is it the same for ya?
Is it busted beyond repair?
And if we don’t save it,
Does it vanish into thin air?

Katy
You don’t have to feel bad
Come around, lay it all down
You don’t have to be good yet
Katy
It’s supposed to make you feel glad
Don’t despair, things ain’t fair
I guess, I guess we didn’t know yet

Whatever is given, honey, there’s a taker
Till the last final throw and you lay your body down
Oh, to be a great singer give your song away freely
Gotta mean what you say or the crowd won’t believe it

Katy
You don’t have to feel bad
Come around, lay it all down
You don’t have to be good yet
Katy
It’s supposed to make you feel glad
Don’t despair, things ain’t fair
I guess, I guess we didn’t know yethave to be good yet
Katy
It’s supposed to make you feel glad
Don’t despair, things ain’t fair
I guess, I guess we didn’t know yet

Whatever is given, honey, there’s a taker
Till the last final throw and you lay your body down
Oh, to be a great singer give your song away freely
Gotta mean what you say or the crowd won’t believe it

Katy
You don’t have to feel bad
Come around, lay it all down
You don’t have to be good yet
Katy
It’s supposed to make you feel glad
Don’t despair, things ain’t fair
I guess, I guess we didn’t know yet
