Letra That's just what you are Aimee Mann

That's just what you are

(one two)

In our endeavor we are never seeing eye to eye
No guts to sever so forever may we wave goodbye
And youre always telling me that its my turn to move
When I wonder what could make the needle jump the groove
I wont fall for the oldest trick in the book
So dont sit there and think youre off of the hook
By saying there is no use changing cause

Thats just what you are
Thats just what you are

Acting steady always ready to defend your fears
Whats the matter with the truth, did I offend your ears
By suggesting that a change might be a thing to try
Like it would kill you just to try and be a nicer guy
Its not like you would lose some critical piece
If somehow you moved point a to point b
Maintaining there is no point changing cause

Thats just what you are
Thats just what you are

Now I could talk to you till Im blue in the face
But we still would arrive at the very same place
With you running around and me out of the race

-very cool keyboard (mellotron? ) solo-

So maybe youre right, nobody can take
Something older than time and hope you could make
It better, that would be a mistake
So take it just so far

cause thats just what you are
Thats just what you are
Thats just what you are

Acting steady always ready to defend your fears
Whats the matter with the truth, did I offend your ears
Youre like a sleepwalking man, its a danger to wake you
Even when it is apparent where your actions will take you

Thats just what you are
And thats just what you are
Thats just what you are
Thats just what you are
