Ben Folds Five - Philosophy





 

Artist: Ben Folds Five
Album: Naked Baby Photos
Title: Philosophy

Won't you look up at the skyline
At the mortar block and glass
And check out the reflections
In my eyes
You see they always
Used to be there
Even when this all was grass
And i sang and danced
About a high-rise

You were laughing at
My helmet hat
Laughing at my torch

Chorus
Go ahead you can
Laugh all you want
I got my philosophy
Keeps my feet on the ground
And i trust it like the ground
And that's why my philosophy(my phil-)
It keeps me walking when i'm falling down(o-so-phy)
I see that there is evil
And i know that there is good
And the inbetweens
I never understood
Won't you look at me
I'm crazy
But i get the job done
Yeah i'm crazy
But i get the job done

Chorus

I pushed you 'cause
I loved you guys
I didn't realize
You weren't having fun
I dragged you up the stairs
And i told you to fly
You were flapping your arms
You started to cry
You were too high
Too high

You may take this all for granted
Take the mortar, block and glass
And you forget the speech
That moved the stone
It's really not the you can't see
The forest for the trees
You've never been out
In the woods before

Go ahead you can laugh
All you want
But i got my philosophy
Keeps my feet on the ground
And i love you
You're my friend
But you got no philosophy
Now it's time for this song to end
