Can’t Keep Up With You Songtext
von Crowded House

Surprise yourself, you might
Surprise yourself, you might
Surprise yourself, you will
Surprise yourself, you might
Riding on the roundabout
I am bound to fall down
I can hardly catch up from behind
Forever be the lady in waiting
You know how to test our patience
Something for the fools with graciousness unbounding
Having trouble keeping up with the neighbors
She was leaning over all night long
Won′t you get up and play that song?
They all know the tune, but not the words
You know I can't keep up with you
No matter what I try to do
You know I can′t keep up with you
No matter what I try to do
I never can keep up with you
Show me something radical


A tonic or sake iced soup
I'm nervous at the start, but then we got the chemicals
And suddenly, you're irresistible
You′re compared to the poet Byron
And she offered to be your muse
Well, you can′t stop us loving you
Said the mother and daughter
'Cause you were special to us
And you know I can′t keep up with you
No matter what I try to do
And now you're far away
I never can keep up with you
So boring and you′re tired and you want to go home
Oh, no
Oh, no
Show me something good again
A case of wine and sliepig
It's awkward at the start, but then we saw the animals
I hate to fake my state of mind
For the peace of your heart, my mind might break
And market this art is the fine state
And I can′t keep up with you
I can't keep up with you
I can't keep up
I can′t keep up
I can′t keep up
