We Are Scientists › Lyrics › The Great Escape

Making my escape
Making my escape
Tell myself that everything's in shape
Everything's in shape but me

How long can this take?
How long can this take?
Tell myself that everything is great
Everything is great
Well, how'm I doin'?

I got a great idea
I'm gonna wait right here
I got a great idea
I'm gonna wait right here

While everything
Is adding up, up, up
Everything is adding up, up, up

Breakin' both my hands
Breakin' both my hands
Tellin' me to take it like a man
Take it like a man, I can't

I don't understand
I don't understand
Please, repeat whatever you just said
Nothin's makin' sense, no
How'm I doin'?

I got a great idea
I'm gonna wait right here
I got a great idea
I'm gonna wait right here

While everything
Is adding up, up, up
Everything is adding up, up, up

They're breakin' both my hands
They're breakin' both my hands
They're tellin' me to take it like a man
I take it like a man, well, f*** that

I don't understand
Said, I don't understand
So, please repeat whatever you just said
'Cause nothin's makin' sense
Well, how'm I doin'?

I got a great idea
I'm gonna wait right here
I got a great idea
I'm gonna wait right here

While everything
Is adding up, up, up
Everything is adding up, up, up
