Jeff Mellin (featuring Jenny Dee) - Don't Go Crazy Before I Do!

from wia013001 by Jeff Mellin

lyrics

Every time
the pressure starts to pile on
I paste a smile on
just to please you

Grin and bear
may be a style you wear
But I don’t care
It doesn’t suit you

Don’t go crazy puttin’ on a face that isn’t yours
The one that you showed up in’s more attractive
And don’t go crazy runnin’ ‘round in someone else’s shoes
Don’t go crazy
Don’t go crazy
Don’t go crazy
Before I do

Are you surprised
to find the camera never lies?

Let’s point it in the wrong direction

From what I’ve seen,
your vision’s never half as keen

Oh, but we’ll come clean upon reflection

Don’t go crazy sayin’ things you think I wanna hear
I don’t need a mirror,
I need a window
And don’t go crazy tryin’ to let me
Just let me through!
Don’t go crazy
Don’t go crazy
Don’t go crazy
before I do

Maybe if we figured out a plan
Maybe if I were a bigger man
Lately little triggers pull their weight in handstands

What’s the point of second guessing how we ought to live?
I doubt that kind of thinking is productive
I’m lucky that I found you
But now you’re all I’ve got to lose

So don’t go crazy
Don’t go crazy
Don’t go crazy
before I do

Don’t go crazy
Don’t go crazy
Don’t go crazy
before I do
