Purple Sneakers (Remastered 2013)

Purple Sneakers - You Am I

Had a scratch only you could itch

Underneath the Glebe Point Bridge

And now every boy in a knitted vest

Has got some precedent

So we took a personality pill

And something red to swill

And now every fire has gone out

In every heart that wanted to kill

Let's call it a day

Every thought that once had a sound

We'll have to hide 'til no one is around

'Cause there ain't no room in the city today

For explanations that you just can't say

Found out what shame can mean

In purple sneakers and grey jeans

And every walk to a school that once made sense

Sure felt like an accident

Let's call it a day

For every trouble you found

There's a drink to lose it and drown

But do you need somebody to feel somebody

Every day that once had a sound

We'll have to hide 'til no one is in town

I don't hate I just feel better

When no one else is around

So we'll take a personality pill

And something red to swill

And now every fire has gone out

In every heart that wanted to kill

Let's call it a day

For every trouble you found

There's a drink to lose it and drown

But do you need somebody to feel somebody

You can shave a million ways

To make damn sure that the twelve in you stays

But do you need somebody to feel somebody
