I'll Be You

I'll Be You - The Replacements

If it's a temporary lull

Why am I bored right outta my skull

Man I'm dressin' sharp an' feelin' dull

Lonely I guess that's where I'm from

If I was from Canada

Then I'd best be called lonesome

And if it's just a game

Then I'll break down just in case

Oh yeah we're runnin' in our last race

Well I laughed half the way to Tokyo

I dreamt I was Surfer Joe

An' what that means I don't know

A dream too tired to come true

Left a rebel without a clue

And I'm searching for somethin' to do

If it's just a game

Then we'll hold hands just the same

So what we're bleeding but we ain't cut

And I could purge my soul perhaps

For the imminent collapse

Oh yeah I'll tell you what we could do

You be me for a while I'll be you

A dream too tired to come true

Left a rebel without a clue

Won't you tell me what I should do

And if it's just a lull

Why am I bored right outta my skull

Oh yeah keep me from feeling so dull

And if it's just a game

Then we'll break down just in case

Then again I'll tell you what we could do

You be me for a while

You be me for a while and I'll be you
