Discoverer - live in the studio by R.E.M. Lyrics
Hey baby
This is not a challenge
It just means that I love you
As much as I always said I did
I was wrong
I have been laughable wrong
Sandpaper, paper mâché, chalk, and hung out wet
I was scared to be in your skin now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
I didn't have to be afraid
I didn't have to feel so stupid
I can see myself, I can feel
That just the slightest bit of finesse
I might have made a little less mess
But it was what it was
Let's all get on with it, now!
Discoverer!
Discoverer!
Discoverer!
Discoverer!
Laughing!
Discoverer!
Floating across Houston
This is where I am
I see the city rise up tall
The opportunities, the possibilities
I have never felt so called
Remember the vodka expresso night of discovery
Remember that laughing discovery
Oh, how I look back and reflect
How I felt it
What I said
I don't have to feel so wrong
Now I wake up dreaming saffron, turmeric and brass
It took the slightest bit of finesse
I might have made a little less mess
But it was what it was
Let's all get on with it, now!
It took the slightest bit of finesse
I might have made a little less mess
But it was what it was
Let's all get on with it, now!
Discoverer!
Discoverer!
Discoverer!
Discoverer!
Discoverer!
This is not a challenge

Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
I didn't have to be afraid
I didn't have to feel so stupid
I can see myself, I can feel
That just the slightest bit of finesse
