Out of Control (Funky Drummer dub) Songtext
von Oingo Boingo

Everyone says sooner or later
You′ll reach the end of the line
When things get rough
Some think it's easy to jump the ship
You decide

I say don′t throw it away
There's about a million reasons why
Though you've heard them all before
And you′re getting very tired
Lay your head on my lap
And I′ll sing you this lullaby

Don't you know, yeah
That everyone around you
Has felt the pain you feel today
You′re out of control
Yeah, and you want someone to tell you
When you wake up in the morning
It'll only be a dream


You′re out of control (you're out of control)
You′re out of control
You're out of control (you're out of control)
You′re out of control

There′s a cloud
Rollin' overhead
And it seems to rain on no one else
There′s a black sun
Casting a black shadow
And I know you feel so alone
You're out of control
And you want the world to love you
Oh, or maybe you just want the chance
To let them know
Yeah, that you live and breathe and suffer
And your back is in the corner
And you′ve got nowhere to go


Nothin' for nothin′
Everything's right at your fingertips
For a price
Who ever said
That life on this planet would ever be paradise?
I say, don't throw it away
You′ve got too many things to say
If you throw away your life
If you throw away your life
If you throw away your life
The world will never be the same

Don′t you know, yeah
That everyone around you
Has felt the pain you feel today
You're out of control
Yeah, and you want someone to tell you
When you wake up in the morning
It′ll only be a dream

You're out of control (you′re out of control)
You're out of control
You′re out of control (you're out of control)
You're out of control

Don′t you know
That everyone around you
(Has felt the pain you feel today)
You′re out of control
Yeah
It'll only be a dream

You′re out of control (you're out of control)
And you move without direction
And people look right through your soul
You′re out of control
And you want someone to tell you
When you wake up in the morning
It'll only be a dream

And I wish that I could tell you
It′ll only be a dream
