Seccession Man
Fall · Other Songs - Fall
And happiness comes easy when its bright and breezy
Sudden inspiration to obsession man
Sensation
I've got to get up early this morning
Gotta get my early warning
How will she ever know?
You're the one that always runs the show
You're the one that always runs the show
You're the one that always runs the show
Inside. Outside. Turn around.
I'm a session man
I'm a session man
And, just how you knew
I'm falling through a grate
But happiness comes easy
In your company
I dont need to mince my words
I dont need to mince my....
You're the one who always runs the show
You're the one who always runs the show
You're the one who always runs the show
That's where the session ends
You're the one who always runs the show
'Cos you're the one who always runs the show
Sucsession
I'm not broken like the other man
They look just the same
I'm a session man
I'm a session man
Inside. Outside. Turn around
I got up early this morning
Gotta go and get my early dawn in.
Inside. Outside. Turn around
Just how you knew I was falling through
I knew you were not insane
Your chains were much like mine
I'm a session man
Like the other man
Other man
Other man
Inside. Outside. Turn around
Other man
Other man
Other man
Other man
You're the one who always runs the show
Other man
Other man
Inside. Outside. Turn around
Other man
Other man
Inside. Outside. Turn around
Other man
Inside. Outside. Turn around
Other man
Other man
Other man
Inside. Outside. Turn around
Other man
Other man
Inside. Outside. Turn around
Other man
Other man
That's where the session ends.
