Flicker by Martha St. Arthur Lyrics
Get off my back, brain
I’m not gonna die
I’m not gonna listen
I’m not gonna cry
Would it be ok just to survive?
Call it a good day, and Call it a Night
But people aren’t happy
Just to be home
They feel the pressure to find pleasure
From the things that they own
Go shoot for the stars, babe
If that’s what you want
Get on a jet plane aimed for the sun
But I think I’ll be fine
With an Ordinary life
Nothing greater than the garden that i’ve grown
Maybe it’s alright just to flutter through the light
It’s just a flicker in forever after all
Get out the way, world
I’m not here to win
I just want a good time
I just want to sing
I don’t need a spot light shining on me
I’ll take the dark night
Sleep without dream
Cause I think I’ll be fine
With an ordinary life
Nothing greater than the garden that i’ve grown
Maybe it’s alright just to flutter through the light
It’s just a flicker in forever after all
Well my mother made my name
So that I’ll never fall to fame
My mother made my name
So that I’ll never fall to fame
My mother made my name
So that I’ll never fall to fame
My mother made my name
So that I’ll never fall to fame
My mother made my name
So that I’ll never fall to fame
My mother made my name
So that I’ll never fall to fame
I’m not gonna die
I’m not gonna listen
I’m not gonna cry
Would it be ok just to survive?
Call it a good day, and Call it a Night
But people aren’t happy
Just to be home
They feel the pressure to find pleasure
From the things that they own
Go shoot for the stars, babe
If that’s what you want
Get on a jet plane aimed for the sun
But I think I’ll be fine
With an Ordinary life
Nothing greater than the garden that i’ve grown
Maybe it’s alright just to flutter through the light
It’s just a flicker in forever after all
Get out the way, world
I’m not here to win
I just want a good time
I just want to sing
I don’t need a spot light shining on me
I’ll take the dark night
Sleep without dream
Cause I think I’ll be fine
With an ordinary life
Nothing greater than the garden that i’ve grown
Maybe it’s alright just to flutter through the light
It’s just a flicker in forever after all
Well my mother made my name
So that I’ll never fall to fame
My mother made my name
So that I’ll never fall to fame
My mother made my name
So that I’ll never fall to fame
My mother made my name
So that I’ll never fall to fame
My mother made my name
So that I’ll never fall to fame
My mother made my name
So that I’ll never fall to fame
