Blame It on Obvious Ways Songtext
von Idlewild

All the mistakes I made
I made because I didn′t know
Myself very well
And by this stage
I feel like
I really should know myself
I'm forced into
A sponsored silence
Where I′m only paid
If I don't say
What I want to say

Open up your arms and say
I can't throw it all away
Open up your arms and say
I can′t give it all away
I couldn′t even care what you say
You change
You change everyday
And blame it on your obvious ways


I gamble my presents
And full the jukebox full of
My favourite phrases
As we cling to the nightclub walls
We whisper the words
We whisper them wrong
And so we screamed out the wrong words
Into our own song
And with the kiss that tasted like drugs
Which taste like
We'll never ever make it home

Open up your arms and say
I can′t throw it all away
Open up your arms and say
I can't give it all away
I couldn′t even care what you say
You change
You change everyday
And blame it on your obvious ways

Throw me around
First you've got to
Calm me down
Don′t you think you
Should calm me down
Before you throw me around
You throw me into another
Move I came to make
It changes every day


Open up your arms and say
Give it all away
I couldn't even care what you say
You change
You change everyday
And blame it on your obvious ways
