Ball and Chain Lyrics by Yabadum

Careful Kid

2014

[Verse 1]
What keeps eating you
Have you lost your motion?
Too much emotion?
You should keep it simple
Get your hands out the sand
It won't stick anyway
It's not where you stay
Go out and find a home
Somewhere you can belong
Your thoughts they ain't wrong
We just get tired
You're a liar time to time
[Pre-Chorus]
We just had to argue
You always scare us away and
We can't outsmart you
It's no use anyways
We asked who are you
There's not much you can say
You just like to argue
It's no use anyway
[Chorus]
Open up your voices because it annoys us
When you shut up and leave yourself
Someone's complaining for you but you want more
You can feel the love tonight
Carry your ball and chain
Show us you need it
I can see that you're small and big
Show us you mean it
[Verse 2]
What keeps beating you?
All the kids with money?
How do they get their money?
I find that funny
I keep meeting you
Always the wrong time
You give the wrong sign
But I still will follow you
[Pre-Chorus]
You just had
To argue
You always scare us away and
We can't outsmart you
It's no use anyway
We asked, who are you?
There's not much you can say
You just like to argue
It's no use anyway
[Chorus]
Open up your voice because it annoys us
When you shut up and leave yourself
Someone's complaining for you
But you want more
You can feel the love tonight
Carry your ball and chain
Show us you need it
I can see that you're small and big
Show us you mean it
