The Odd Couple

Gnarls Barkley The Odd Couple Lyrics
1.Charity Case

Oh ah oh ah oh ah oh ah oh ah
Gi gi give it away now
Gi gi give it away now
Give it away now
Give it away now
I, I, I, I don't know what matters to you at this moment
But that's all that matters to me
How are ya (how are you)
Knock on wood
Well I'm not doing so good

And I don't understand how I'm so understanding
I guess that that's all I can be
How are ya (how are you)
I think I can help
But I can't help myself

Oh can't ya see
Oh can't ya see
If I help somebody baby there's mercy for me
Ahhh charity

Go for a part of you baby
But I'm bleeding to
Are you needing me like I'm needing you
Even my shadow leaves me all alone at night
Guess I need to start to take my own advice
Lalalala lalala laa
Lalalala lalala laa

Oh can't ya see
Oh can't ya see
Somebody's a liar who ever set free that was free
Ahhh charity

Oh ah oh ah oh ah oh ah oh ah
Gi gi give it away now
Gi gi give it away now
Give it away now
Give it away now

Ohoooo
Alright
Yeah
Charity
You betta give to somebody

2.Who's Gonna Save My Soul

Got some bad news this morning
Which en turn made my day
When this someone spoke I listened
All of a sudden has less and less to say
Oooo how could this be
All this time I've lived vicariously
Who's gonna save my soul now
Who's gonna save my soul now
How will my story ever be told now
How will my story be told now

Made me feel like somebody huh
Like somebody else
Although he was imitated often
It felt like I was being myself
Is it a shame that someone else's song

Was totally and completely depended on
Who's gonna save my soul now
Who's gonna save my soul now
I wonder if I'll live grow old now
Getting high cause I feel so low down
And maybe it's a little selfish
All I have is the memory
Yet I never stopped to wonder
Was it possible you hurtin' worse than me
Still my hunger turns to greed
Cause what about what I need
And Ooooo

Who's gonna save my soul now
Whooooo's gon save my soul now
Oooo I know I'm out of control now hoohooo
Tired enough to lay my own soul down


3.Going On

I've seen it with my own eyes
How we're gettin' otherwise
Without the luxury of leavin'
The touch and feeling of free is
Untangible technically
Something you've got to believe in
Connect the cause and effect
One foot in front of the next
This is the start of a journey.
And my mind is already gone
And though there are other unknowns
Somehow this doesn't concern me.

And you can stand right there if you want
But I'm going on
And I'm prepared to go it alone
I'm going on
To a place in the sun that's nice and warm
I'm going on

And I'm sure they'll have a place for you too oohoohoo

Anyone that needs what they want, and doesn't want what they
need
I want nothing to do with
And to do what I want
And to do what I please
Is first of my to-do list
But every once in a while I think about her smile
One of the few things I do miss
But baby Ive to go
Baby I've got to know
Baby I've got to prove it

And I'll see you when you get there
But I'm going on
And I'm prepared to go it alone
I'm going on
May my love lift you up to the place you belong
I'm going on
And I promise I'll be waiting for you oohoohoo


4.Run (I'm A Natural Disaster)

Yeah It's Still The Same
Can't you feel the pain?
When the needle hits the vain
Ain't nuthin' like the real thing
I've seen it once before, and oh it's something else, Good God

Cool breeze come on in
Sunshine come on down
These are the teardrops of a clown
The circus is coming to town
All that I'm saying is that I'm more scared of myself

You Better
Move
I Said
Move
Run Away!
Run Away!
Run Children!
Run For Your Life!

Run Away!
Run Away!
Run Children!
Here It Comes, Said Run! Alright

Yeah I'm On The run
See where I'm coming from
When you see me come and run
Before You See what I'm running from
No Time for question asking, time is passing by. Alright!

You can't win child,
We've all tried too
You've been lied too
It's already inside you
You either run right now, or you best get ready to die
You Better
Move
I Said
Move
Run Away!
Run Away!
Run Children!
Run For Your Life!

Run Away!
Run Away!
Run Children!
Here It Comes, Said Run!

Hurry little children
Run this way
I have got a beast at bay

Promise me when the chance comes
You'll run as fast as you can
Don't you dare look backwards
Run as fast as you can

Run Away!
Run Away!
Run Children!
Run For Your Life!

Run Away!
Run Away!
Run Children!
Here It Comes, Said Run!


5.Would Be Killer

I've got a secret
Something I thought maybe I could do
But I can't now can I
Lucky, lucky you

Did you know I could be
a would be killer
If suddenly I should be
I would be killer

Hurt people, hurt people
This is always how

Oh I've been entered by evil
So someone best love me right now

Because I could be
a would be killer
If suddenly I should be
I would be killer

Now don't you dare me
Or we will dance
High up balancing ballet
So I may still get my chance


6.Open Book

Eye's filled with fire
Wish I was a better liar
It hurts when it's happening and so I cried.
The winter is here and cold
I just wish I could have told you
That I am safe and warm from the hell inside.

Come on (come on)
Come on (come on)
I am an open book.

The drum beat of my heart is tribal
Oh the sweet sound of surviival
Shall serenade this forest forever more.
The sun would have to be frozen
For anything out there opposing
Not to be left in it's own blood on the jungle floor.

Come on (come on)
Come on (come on)
I am an open book.
An open book.

When I sing a song of peace
It soothes a savage beast
Even it understands that I understand at least.
So you martyrs can keep this in mind
This is the way I resign
And I am (no power) so I'll only die one time.

Come on (come on)
You have (come on)
To kill me
I am an open book.
An open book.


7.Whatever

I don't have any friends at all
Cause I have nothing in common with ya'll
So who's gonna catch me if I fall
My backs always against the wall
I don't have anything to say
I want everything to go my way
Shut up mom it is not OK
I'm alone almost every day

But it's cool (it's cool)
It could be better (could be better)
I don't care (I don't care)
Whatever (whatever)
Hold up my man
La la la la lalala
Whatever
La la la la lalala
Whatever
La la la la lalala
Whatever
La la la la lalala

Went to my counselor bout how I feel
Everyone agrees I could use some help
I love my girl more than I love myself
She's going steady with someone else
I don't know what else to do
Said f**k me, well f**k you too
I know it sounds real sad but true
Being alone is nothing new

But it's cool (it's cool)
It could be better (could be better)
I don't care (I don't care) huh
Whatever (whatever)
Whatever bitch
La la la la lalala (what)
Whatever
La la la la lalala (what)
Whatever
La la la la lalala (what)
Whatever
La la la la lalala
(What.)


8.Suprise

It's cool being the only one
But it's lonely
I could have fallen in the stove a thousand times before if only
someone had know me
They say there's someone for everyone
Oh plus the word will be never done
When all you need is to be meet half way but nobody tries

Don't be surprised
Don't be surprised
Don't be surprised

There are hills and mountains between us
Always something to get over
Needless to say it's a wonderful day
I just noticed how nice it was to know ya
Oh but be ready to sacrifice
If you love him you should tell him twice
Because when everything that's alive ultimately dies
Oh lord

Don't be surprised
Don't be surprised
Don't be surprised

Somebody's watchin
Maybe you want em to see you
But with your regrets and secrets you don't really want them to
be you
Well you can make believe I'm that
And for now I'll be just fine
But when the child grows up to have more than just your eyes

Don't be surprised
Don't be surprised
Don't be surprised

Now the ending to every story is most enchanting
Now whether it's heaven or hell I wear it well
Please forgive me for rambling
I just wanted ya'll
To know that I don't know it all
So when that big o'l smile ends up
Being just a disguise

Don't be surprised
Don't be surprised
Oh lord
Don't be surprised
Ooh oh lord
Don't be surprised
I said don't be don't be surprised
There's nothing left in here that's surprising baby prising
baby...


9.No Time Soon


10.She Knows

Up, up and away she goes
Now I know that I know she knows
Could one live a lie?
Well neither will I
If she still try to try
But remarkably, my son,
All my work is done.
Wouldn't surprise me to see her ghost
She would like me to know she knows
And I'm almost sure
I was absolutely nothing before
Now I'm so, so much more

The one word that describes the past
I'm pretty much possessed
We are the reason, I suppose
And we've spoken so I know she knows
There was one to sacrifice
When you live more than twice
Or when I bet it's nice
Gonna be just like you
I'm giving my life, too
No other woman would wear your clothes
And it goes without saying she knows
She knows


11.Blind Mary

Yeaaaah.
I love Mary.
Blind Mary marry me.
I love Mary.

She has never seen the sunshine,
yet she's getting along just fine.
She's not staying, she's just passing through.
Hey, do you mind if I follow you?
You.

I love Mary.
Blind Mary marry me.
I love Mary.
Yeaaaah.

I heard her voice say catch me if you can.
Before you know it I was holding her hand.
It's harder to imagine then understand
how she knows exactly who I am.
Yeah.

I love Mary.
blind Mary marry me.
I love Mary.
Yeah.

She's my friend, she doesn't judge me.
She has no idea I'm ugly.
So I've absolutely nothing to hide.
Because I'm so much prettier inside.
Yeah.

I love Mary.
Blind Mary marry me.
I love Mary.
Blind Mary follow me.


12.Neighbors

Now my neighbor likes where I stay
But doesn't, know, the price that I pay
My neighbor! My neighbor!
Myyyyy neighbor... wants what he sees
My neighbor! My neighbor!
Myyyyy neighbor... thinks he wants to be me
But he'll never be

From out my window, seems just fine
But in his mind, again his world is far from kind
So I invited him over, could this make a new friend
But once I got to know ya, wish I never let you in

Now my neighbor likes my clothes
But hadn't seen me with my scars exposed
My neighbor! My neighbor!
Myyyyy neighbor, ohhh dissatisfied
My neighbor!
My neighbor's, behavior... is unjustified
I'm sick and tired

I don't know, if he lives all alone
But if you're scared of the darkness best leave the lights on
I had a talk with my neighbor
Say it simple and plain
I guess, he understood me
He never came back again

Now my neighbor, likes my car
But no matter where you go, there you are...


13.A Little Better

Now I can sing you the story line
And if you like my story fine
But ain't none of the glory mine
See my life was a lonely one
And I was still momma only son
With no idea of what I'm gonna become
And didn't have long to know
That you don't have to be grown to go
I could have died so long before
Then I finally saw the sign
And I made it on down the line
One step at a time

I feel a lil better
I can smile at it now
I feel a lil better... hah
Oh better
And even a little is still a lil better
Oh have mercy on me

Ooh it's probably plain to see
That there's a whole lot of pain in me
And it will always remain in me
So cold it's a crying shame
Yet here I am trying again
Cause I refuse to die in vein
The circumstances put soul in me
And there ain't no holding me
I've got a heart made of gold in me
Can you believe this is where I've been
And when adversity comes again
I'll deal with it then

I feel a lil better
I can laugh at it now
I feel a lil better... Ha ha
Oh better
And even a little is still a lil better
Oh have mercy on me

I said every things fine you can take your time
What would be on your mind if you knew you was dyin
I would wanna just feel this a one more time
I said every things fine you can take your time
What would be on your mind if you knew you was dyin
I would wanna just feel this a one more time

I wanna thank you morning sun
I wanna thank you lowly dirt
Now I know I'm not the only one
I, I wanna thank you friendly ghost
When all the calls where close
It seems like you care the most
I, I wanna thank you mom and dad
For hurting me so bad
But you're the best I ever had
I, I wanna thank you
