HELP by The Front Bottoms Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Some of us go through some changes; some of us go through some phases
Things we fall into and then fall out
You explained this to yourself in the bathroom mirror last night
As you take your toothbrush out of your mouth
[Bridge 1]
You say, "This is what I want, motherfucker
Make it happen for me"
You say, "This is what I want, motherfucker
Make it happen for me"
[Chorus]
(Help) You are the poison I need
(Help) Less of inside my body
(Help) You need a means to an ending
I need a spiritual cleansing
[Verse 2]
When you ask me, "Do you wanna stay?"
Believe me, what I wanna say is, "Yes"
But I gotta go to work
[Chorus]
(Help) You are the poison I need
(Help) Less of inside my body
(Help) You need a means to an ending
And I need a spiritual cleansing
[Bridge 2]
On some nights, there's something cool to do
On some nights, there's nothing to do at all
I guess it's cool for right now
Just like everything else
I watch her throw her hands up into the air
I hear her say, "Don't worry
The lovers will go down together
Into the flames with nothing else
But the promise to meet up and hang out."
To hang out
Oh, to hang out
[Bridge 3]
Thank you for letting me borrow your jacket
It kept me warm in a cold place
Some people, no matter how much money they make
Can't get out of their own way (Hunh!)
Thank you for letting me borrow your jacket
It kept me warm in a cold place
Some people, no matter how much money they make
Can't get out of their own way, so
[Coda]
(Help) I'm always focusing in on the wrong things
(Help) And then the wrong things become everything
(Help) I don't know what I'm gonna do
I don't know what I'm gonna do about anything
(Help) (This is what I want, motherfucker
Make it happen for me)
(Help) You are the poison I need
(Help) (This is what I want, motherfucker
Make it happen for me)
You need a means to an ending
(Help) I don't know anything
(Help) I don't what I'm gonna do about anything
(Help) I don't what I'm gonna do about anything
Some of us go through some changes; some of us go through some phases
Things we fall into and then fall out
You explained this to yourself in the bathroom mirror last night
As you take your toothbrush out of your mouth
[Bridge 1]
You say, "This is what I want, motherfucker
Make it happen for me"
You say, "This is what I want, motherfucker
Make it happen for me"
[Chorus]
(Help) You are the poison I need
(Help) Less of inside my body
(Help) You need a means to an ending
I need a spiritual cleansing
[Verse 2]
When you ask me, "Do you wanna stay?"
Believe me, what I wanna say is, "Yes"
But I gotta go to work
[Chorus]
(Help) You are the poison I need

(Help) You need a means to an ending
And I need a spiritual cleansing
