Lyrics for Please...Don't Be Yourself
Some try to warn be 'bout your acting skills They say there's a method in the way you feel The void you so desperately try to soothe So give me a drink before I love you too It only takes fifteen if you take in account The last five minutes you just didn't count Someone else just took your place Same old story 'bout a different face I'm not gonna wait 'till you say farewell Please, please don't be yourself It only takes fifteen if you take in account The last five minutes you just went around It only takes fifteen if you take in account The last five minutes you just didn't count Some... classes in the... school And they only make sense if you play by the rules And don't forget to compromise I'm not sure that you realise It only takes fifteen if you take in account The last five minutes you just went around It only takes fifteen if you take in account The last five minutes you just didn't count
