Calm Down aka I Should Not Be Alone Songtext
von Ezra Furman

Get ′em

Happiness was never guaranteed
I wanted nothing more than to open up and bleed
No more anaesthetic, alcohol and weed
And now, I got my wish and it's too much for me

And I should not be alone
The way things are going
No, no, I should not be alone
The way things are going
(Woo, woo)
(Woo, woo)

Panic-stricken, sweating in my bed
Could someone help me down? Sometimes you rot instead
Never-ending movie playing in my head
Of the dress you wore and all the shit you said


And I should not be alone
The way things are going
(Woo, woo)
(Woo, woo)
No, no, I should not be alone
The way things are going

Baby, don′t be so sad, so bad
I know isn't life we wanted
Bad men crush us into submission
Downhill slidin', no more traction
Please stop crying, take a deep breath
Take a tall glass, ice cold water

Calm down (woo, woo)
Calm down (woo, woo)
Baby, calm down (woo, woo)
I know you can′t ′cause I can't calm down

Calm down (woo, woo)
Calm down (woo, woo)
Baby, calm down (woo, woo)
I know you can′t 'cause I can′t calm down

(Woo, woo)
(Woo, woo)
(Woo, woo)
(Woo, woo)
Ah-ooh!
