Troubleman Songtext
von Electric Guest

She was young once
Girl of the bohemian kind
In the cold bright dawn
We watched her grow

Wisdom had begun
Season when the water was high
On the grey stone lawn I walked alone

Me and my heart following the shadow she made
Like a dull sky day I chased the sun
Back at the start I was still in love with the way
It's a long long way from what's become

She's got it bad for me
She's got it bad for me
The only game she plays now turn the other way
She's got it bad for me
She's got it bad for me
The only game she played she played


Newly grown-up
Folded up the colors she wore
See the all new girl
All rehearsed and well

Filling my cup
Playing at the edge of the shore
See the way she moves
I broke the spell

She's got it bad for me
She's got it bad for me
The only game plays now turn the other way

She's got it bad for me
She's got it bad for me
The only game she played she played

Oh no
Try to fix it before you break it
Then it's gone
Oh no i go on i go on

She's got it bad for me
She's got it bad for me
The only game she played now turn the other way


She's got it bad for me
She's got it bad for me
The only game she played she played

Troubleman
You wished it all away
Gun in hand
You found a path today
And i know nothing about

Troubleman
Your faithful
Foreign land
The sea was made of stone
And i know nothing about

He's gotten bad for me
He's gotten bad for me
The only game he played now turn the other way

He's gotten bad for me
He's gotten bad for me
The only game he played he played

Troubleman
We used to shade the dead
Ship unmanned
The rain was just ahead
And i know nothing about
Where troubleman
Is just an empty name

Oh no
Try to fix it before you break it
Oh no
You go on
We go on
