Crowded House - I Can't Keep Up with You Lyrics

Surprise yourself, you might
Surprise yourself, you might
Surprise yourself, you will
Surprise yourself, you might

Riding on the roundabout
I am bound to follow you now
I can hardly catch up from behind
Forever be the lady in waiting
You know how to test her patience
You suffer fools with graciousness abounding

Having trouble keeping up with the neighbors
She was leaning over all night long
Won't you get up and play that song
We all know the tune but not the words

You know I can't keep up with you
No matter what I try to do
You know I can't keep up with you
No matter what I try to do
I never can keep up with you

Show me something radical
Dare ka sake? Ai sh teru
I'm nervous at the start
Then we got the chemicals

And suddenly, you're irresistible
You're compared to the poet Byron
And she offered to be your muse
Well, you can't stop us loving you
Said the mother and daughter

You know I can't keep up with you
No matter what I try to do
I never can keep up with you
So boring, you're tired and you wanna go home
Oh no, oh no

Show me something good again
A case of wine, ich liebe dich
It's awkward at the start
And then we saw the animals

I hate to fake my state of mind
For the keys to your heart
My mind, my brain, the Marquis de Sade
Mystified, mistake

You know I can't keep up with you
I never can keep up with you
I can't keep up
I can't keep up
I can't keep up
