being you

Father John Misty

I m nodding yes
I m making my face go
Like I am listening, that s nice
You ve seen all those films
Even the late ones like
Desire, Rancho, Last Rites
I grab the bill
My hand says I insist
Funds are moving
I am doing this

Just a spitting image
Of someone that I knew
Just a perfect parody
I can barely do
And I wonder what it s like
I wonder what it s like to be you
Can you tell me how it feels?
Can you tell me how it feels?
Being you

After the jump
I m not even sure who s l?ft
Maybe the stunt guy was my true s?lf
Under the skin
We re not much on the eyes
A real mess, where soul must reside
In my memory
Is a show I call the past
I watch and decide just what I would do next

Just a spitting image
Of someone I forget
Such a perfect panoply
Lucky contestant
Come on down
And I wonder what it s like
I wonder what it s like to be you
Can you tell me how it feels?
I wanna know how it feels

Being you
Being you
Being you
Being you
