a firm kick

Singer: john frusciante

a firm kick in the pants

this last chance

to get things right

this was one time i

closed an eye

looked away from you

look out

for yourself tonight

sometimes

i have to get things right

i never meant what i said to you

give up all the things that you love to do

i'd never guess that you'd do me wrong

i'll never accept that dance and song

a little time to adjust

would be just

what we need

i've meant to tell you what i think

that you think

when i cross your mind

forgone

stressed at the light

what's wrong

with being uptight

i never say what i intend to

but does it mean that much to you?

i'd a close call with a glitch in time

are you really that happy to be mine?

no

i'm not disguising

all that fighting

and dreams not coming true

i will play some

light from the sun

the world by my side

and i will see dawn

as a forlorn

maiden in the sky

and i will play

a song of thunder

you may recognize

you make a never

that's forever

knowing what you deny

when i revisit the past

it's a blast

i just gotta move on

i've just let down someone

i relied on

and i don't see why

how'd we pretty-up that speech?

mc talking through me

i've never done what i set out to do

don't come to me 'cause i'll run from you

left out of life. would i really care?

not a whole lot. there's nothing for me there

i'll never forget

the limits that we set

back when it was our moon

and i never made a pretense

of living with good sense

it's really not my strong suit
