[Verse]
G C
Nobody tells you, you end up knowing
G D
(Knowing) Bad habits, you should sleep alone
G C D
Open to suggestions, is that the way you feel?
(Is that the way the way you feel?) Cuz you're the
G C
Voice of experience, every word you choose
G D
Sweet stolen info you must never lose
G C D
You're so secure in your habitat familiar
(You feel it, you feel so secure)
[Chorus]
Am C G/B D
But you won't want from me (You never want nothing, no nothing)
Am C G/B D
There's nothing else to see (And you should know something)
Am C G/B D G
Try smo - king your own and don't look at me.
(I'm looking, I'm looking, singing, singing it, singing it)
[Verse]
G C
No need to explain, just order dresses
G D
Bad habits (you keep) you shouldn't keep.
G C D
Quick nip next door to the, the vendor of charisma
(No need to explain just nip next door to the vendor of charisma)
G C
Because the time, the place and the mood is right
G D
And good old Kevin is gonna be all right
G C D
Here comes "His Soul" get your pen and notebooks ready
(here comes his, here comes his soul get your pen and notebooks ready)
[Chorus]
Am C G/B D
But you won't look like me (You never want nothing, no nothing no)
Am C G/B D
You'll never think like me (And you should know something)
Am C G/B D
Try smo - king your own and don't follow me.
(I'll follow, I'm singing, singing, singing it, singing it)
