lyrics

Don’t Act Like That (When The Lion Gets Here)


Verse 1


I met a friend
But he’s never by my side
Maybe every twice a month
He comes to say hi
Sometimes he stays for days
Most times he comes and goes
Where he goes, I don’t think I’ll ever know


Chorus


Lazin’ around in a daze of confusion
Replacing rational thoughts with delusions, oh
He comes and goes, comes and goes
Up in smoke
Lazin’ around in a daze of confusion
Replacing rational thoughts with delusions, oh
He comes and goes, comes and goes
Will he stay or will he go?


Verse 2


There’s no words to describe when he’s with me
I’m in a heightened mental state
Sometimes we laugh for hours
But most times we stay up late
I don’t get what you’re doing to me when you keep me up at night
But all that my friends and me can say is that we don’t put up much of a fight


Chorus


Lazin’ around in a daze of confusion
Replacing rational thoughts with delusions, oh
He comes and goes, comes and goes
Up in smoke
Lazin’ around in a daze of confusion
Replacing rational thoughts with delusions, oh
He comes and goes, comes and goes
Will he stay or will he go?


Guitar Solo


Drum Breakdown


Chorus


Lazin’ around in a daze of confusion
Replacing rational thoughts with delusions, oh
He comes and goes, comes and goes
Up in smoke
Lazin’ around in a daze of confusion
Replacing rational thoughts with delusions, oh
He comes and goes, comes and goes
Will he stay or will he go?
