Lyrics

FAT LADY
(Henry Ate ? Torn and Tattered 2000)
Words and music: Karma-Ann Swanepoel (1998) Ate Publishing

I just don?t get it - I?ve listen to your reasons
Though your sense is not apparent
I can?t lie - Say that things are better
When I don?t sleep at night

I just don?t get it - Love aside
I wish that you could look at me and smile
It would easier if I?d done something wrong
Then I could think this my fault

I don?t know why, I don?t know when
But it ain?t over until I hear the fat lady sing it,
Shout it, tell me what you think about it,
So easy when you?re the one whose looking in.
You sing it, shout it, tell me what you think about it,
So easy when you?re the one whose looking in.
I wish I was looking in.

I just don?t get it ? I look into your eyes
And there?s a world I knew as mine
I can?t hide or see into the future
Without my pandora?s child
Besides it doesn?t take a genius
To see I only make you cry

I don?t know why, and I don?t know when
But it ain?t over until I hear the fat lady sing it,
Shout it, tell me what you think about it
So easy when you?re the one who?s looking in.
So sing it, shout it, tell me what you think about it,
So easy when you?re the one who?s looking in.
