Gratitude

"So-Lo" Version | "Alive" Version

"So-Lo" Version

Note: This song is a bitch, what with all the echoing and backing vocals overlapping with the lead vocals, etc.. so I did my best!

Hoooooooooo!
Life's been so good to me
Has it been good to you
Has it been everything
That you expected it to be
Was it as good for you
As it was good for me
And was it everything
That it was all set up to be
(Now is that gratitude)
Ohh
(Now is that gratitude)

Now is that gratitude
Or is it really love
Some kind of reality
That fits just like a glove
Now is that gratitude
For everything I've done
Or is it something else
That's got me on the run

In the middle of a big tornado
On the tip of everyone's tongue
In the belly of a giant whale
All the girls just wanna have fun
In the look of a frightened neighbor
In a big warm bed at night
In a broken elevator
In the teeth of a dog that bites
In the middle of a revolution
In the look of a child's face
In the silence of a dinner table
In the stillness of disgrace
Now is that gratitude (Now is that gratitude)
Now is that gratitude (Now is that gratitude)
Now is that gratitude (Now is that gratitude)
Now is that gratitude (Now is that gratitude)

Yisss
But when I think of you
And what you've done to me
You took away my hope
You took away my fantasy
I once had lots of pride
The world was in my hands
I lived way at the top
In castles made of sand (sand...)

Ooooh I dream of you sometime
Ooooh I dream of you sometime

Huh!

(In the middle of a big tornado)
In the middle of a big tornado
(On the tip of everyone's tongue)
On the tip of everyone's tongue
(In the belly of a giant whale)
In the belly of a giant whale
(All the girls just wanna have fun)
All the girls just wanna have fun
(In the look of a frightened neighbor)
In the look of a frightened neighbor
(In a big warm bed at night)
In a big warm bed at night
(In a broken elevator)
In a broken elevator
(In the teeth of a dog that bites)
In the teeth of a dog that bites
(In the middle of a revolution)
In the middle of a revolution
(In the look of a child's face)
In the look of a child's face
(In the silence of a dinner table)
In the silence...
In the stillness of disgrace
(In the stillness of disgrace) Now is that gratitude
Oooh
(Now is that gratitude)
Now is that gratitude
Oooh
(Now is that gratitude)
Whooooo

Life's been so good to me
Has it been good to you
Has it been everything
That you expected it to be
Was it as good for you
As it was good for me
And was it everything
That it was all set up to be

(In the middle of a big tornado)
In the middle of a big tornado
(On the tip of everyone's tongue)
On the tip of everyone's tongue
(In the belly of a giant whale)
In the belly of a giant whale
(All the girls just wanna have fun)
All the girls just wanna have fun
(In the look of a frightened neighbor)
In the look of a frightened neighbor
(In a big warm bed at night)
In a big warm bed at night
(In a broken elevator)
In a broken elevator
(In the teeth of a dog that bites)
In the teeth of a dog that bites
(In the middle of a revolution)
In the middle of a revolution
(In the look of a child's face)
In the look of a child's face
(In the silence of a dinner table)
In the silence..
In the stillness of disgrace
(In the stillness of disgrace)

Ooooh I dream of you sometime
(In the middle of a big tornado
On the tip of everyone's tongue
In the belly of a giant whale
All the girls just wanna have fun

Ooooh I dream of you sometime

"Alive" Version

Hoooooooooo!
Life's been so good to me
Has it been good to you
Has it been everything
That you expected it to be
Was it as good for you
As it was good for me
And was it everything
That it was all set up to be
(Now is that gratitude)
Ohh
(Now is that gratitude)

Now is that gratitude
Or is it really love
Some kind of reality
That fits just like a glove
Now is that gratitude
For everything I've done
Or is it something else
That's got me on the run

In the middle of a big tornado
On the tip of everyone's tongue
Uh
In the belly of a giant whale
All the girls just wanna have fun
Puh
In the look of a frightened neighbor
In a big warm bed at night
Ooh
In a broken elevator
In the teeth of a dog that bites
Eh
In the middle of a revolution
In the look of a child's face
In the silence of a dinner table
In the stillness of disgrace
huh
I used to eat little girls like you for breakfast
I used to fly high up in the sky
I used to chew up rocks and spit out gravel
I had a heart as cold as ice

But when I think of you
And what you've done to me
You took away my hope
You took away my fantasy
I once had lots of pride
The world was in my hand
I lived way at the top
Of castles made of sand

Ooooh I dream of you sometime
Ooooh I dream of you sometime

Hoo!

(In the middle of a big tornado)
In the middle of a big tornado
(On the tip of everyone's tongue)
On the tip of everyone's tongue
(In the belly of a giant whale)
In the belly of a giant whale
(All the girls just wanna have fun)
All the girls just wanna have fun
(In the look of a frightened neighbor)
In the look of a frightened neighbor
(In a big warm bed at night)
In a big warm bed at night
(In a broken elevator)
In a broken elevator
(In the teeth of a dog that bites)
In the teeth of a dog that bites
(In the middle of a revolution)
In the middle of a revolution
(In the look of a child's face)
In the look of a child's face
(In the silence of a dinner table)
In the silence...
In the stillness of disgrace
(In the stillness of disgrace) Now is that gratitude
Oooh
