[Verse 1]
There's a curse that can please,
every lovely disease
Yes it happened to me
(Never let the shape recorder pass you by)
Does your light obsolete where you've nowhere to meet?
Is the pilot only there for the ride?
Is it just out of reach?
Has it nothing to teach?
Does it come with a leash?
(Never let the shape recorder pass you by)
Has it panned out of view if it listened to you?
Our finales evident to survive
[Chorus x4]
Don't you know you're gettin' there?
Got a piece of my heart
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
Do the words not offend?
Does your life have an end,
that you'd rather attend?
(Never let the shape recorder pass you by)
Does it hide in a sleeve if you've no-one to leave
Is it nothing but a clever device?
There's a snake underneath that will choke on it's teeth,
if it happened to breathe
(Never let the shape recorder pass you by)
Does it ride up the lung?
Am I part of the song?
Every ending, all the same, every time
[Chorus x4]
Don't you know you're gettin' there?
Got a piece of my heart
[Instrumental]
Got a piece of my heart
Got a piece of my heart
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
Do dee dee dum dee dee dum dee dee do
Who's ever needed to know?
(On and on and on)
Do dee dee dum dee dee dum dee dee do
Who's ever needed to know?
(On and on and on)
Do dee dee dum dee dee dum dee dee do
Who's ever needed to know?
(On and on and on)
Do dee dee dum dee dee dum dee dee do
Who's ever needed to know?
Don't you know you're gettin' there?
Don't you know?
Don't you know you're gettin' there?
Don't you know?
Don't you know you're gettin' there?
Don't you know?
Don't you know?
