"There You Are In Me" lyrics - NELLIE MCKAY

Every single thing
Will only bring
Another sad solution
Every single hurt
Will only curse
Another substitution

Everyone you meet
Secures a wretched seat
Within your memory
Wipe their filthy feet
Upon the yearning of your soul

There you are in me

No one ever loved me
Not at school
And home was so sadistic
I don't wanna be
Another fool
Another sad statistic

Everyone you know
Secures a wretched glow
Within your memory
Wipe their filthy toes
Upon the yearning of your mind

There you are in me

Mother mother
Why you tear away
Countin' up the stars like any other
Brother brother
Can you hear me say
Not long far
I've just gone undercover

Selfish
Stupid
So self-serious
Bawlderdash
I got no money
Shellfish
Cupid
So delirious
Leave me 'nuff alone
Uptight
Upright
Long nights furious
Darwin asks
You got the money
Big cry
Big guy
Fish eye curious
Can this be my home

Everyone you tell
Secures a wretched hell
Within your memory
Wipe their filthy smell
Upon the yearning of your mind

There you are in me

Mother mother
Why you tear away
Counting up the stars like any other
Brother brother
Can you hear me say
Not long far
I've just gone undercover

Dumbass
Smartass
So self-serious
What disgrace
I got no money
Well-read
Dopehead
So delirious
Leave me nuff alone
Frothin
Coughin
Right ridiculous
Face to face
You got the money
Upset
Inbred
White trash glorious
Can this be my home

Everyone you touch
Secures a wretched crutch
Within your memory
Wipe their filthy mush upon the yearning of your soul

There you are in me
