Slackin′ off like a bum, I′m feelin′ ho hum I′m feelin′ luke warm like the water in my tub Started out and we was hot, looked up and now we′re not We had that fire like we was boilin′ in a pot
Whoopsi-daisy, whoopsi-daisy, whoopsi-daisy Come, we gonna catch that
Fire, I′m feenin′ for a flicker Then we′ll fan the flame up into something bigger Started out and we was hot, looked up and now we′re not We gonna catch a fire, catch a fire for God
Whoopsi-daisy, whoopsi-daisy, whoopsi-daisy Come, we gonna catch that Whoopsi-daisy, call me crazy, whoopsi-daisy Come, we gonna catch that
Fire, takin′ it from warm to hot Fire, gotta give it all we got Fire, whoopsi-daisy, call me crazy, whoopsi-daisy Come, we gonna catch that
Spark to a flame, I′m flippin′ up my game I caught the fire and I′ll never be the same So unexplainable I can′t contain it, son And my retaining it would only be a shame So let me hear you say
Heat, like the Kingston concrete There ain′t no stoppin′ the fire We′re straight breakin′ ground There ain′t no cooling this thing down We burnin′ up and keep′n it krunk as we know how Hear me now people
Catch a fire let it burn within Catch a fire let it burn for him
I′m sure I′ve seen this look before Done a thousand times and a million more How many lies did he tell this time? How many times did he cross the line? It won′t help me but I have to ask Is there something real that′s behind the mask? Something true we don′t know about? A little faith in amongst the doubt
And maybe someday you will grow Maybe someday you will know Maybe someday you will end these tears and go
A little piece of me grows old I keep on walking down this road I′ve seen a million people change but I will stay the same And I know you, (Know you, know you) always steal and borrow And I know you, (Know you, know you) Never catch, you′re never gonna catch tomorrow
I′m sure I′ve played this scene before I′ve seen this room and I′ve walked this floor I′m sure I used to hold your hand Did I hurt you? All this attitude with no history All this anger when you′re attacking me Got a lot to learn and you need to know That your time is up kid, let it go
Maybe someday you will grow Maybe someday you will know Maybe someday you will end these tears and go
A little piece of me grows old I keep on walking down this road I′ve seen a million people change but I will stay the same And I know you, (Know you, know you) always steal and borrow And I know you, (Know you, know you) Never catch, you′re never gonna catch tomorrow
Never gonna catch tomorrow
A little piece of me grows old I keep on walking down this road I′ve seen a million people change but I will stay the same And I know you, (Know you, know you) always steal and borrow And I know you, (Know you, know you) Never gonna catch tomorrow
yeah the haircut′s hot But this has gotta stop Good shoes won′t save you this time I think you′re gonna find With everything combined that the time′s running out of this line
And I know you, (Know you, know you) always steal and borrow And I know you, (Know you, know you) Never catch, you′re never gonna catch tomorrow
Yes I know who you remind me of A girl I think I used to know Yes I′d see her when the day got colder On those days when it felt like snow You know I even think that she stared like you She used to just stand there and stare And roll her eyes right up to heaven And make like I just wasn′t there
And she used to fall down a lot That girl was always falling Again and again And I used to sometimes try to catch her But I never even caught her name
And sometimes we would spend the night Just rolling about on a floor And I remember Even though it felt soft at the time I always used to wake up sore
You know I even think that she smiled like you She used to just stand there and smile And her eyes would go all sort of far away And stay like that for quite a while
And I remember she used to fall down a lot That girl was always falling Again and again And I used to sometimes try to catch her But I never even caught her name
Yes I sometimes even tried to catch her But I never even caught her name
The morning paper Look in the mirror On your kitchen Or in the coffee spoon
On your shirt sleeve In the flat-screen In your mailbox Breathing over you
Come on baby, when will you see ′Cause you and I were meant to be And now I got my target on track Baby you should know that I′m so good at that
Run to where you want, run to where you want I am gonna find you There ain′t no distance far enough My love′s gonna find you Run to where you want, run to where you want Maybe I′ll remind you There ain′t no engine fast enough My love′s gonna catch you
In your top drawer In your cheque book On your cellphone By you easy chair
In the next room Behind the curtain Can′t escape me I′m watching everywhere
Come on baby, when will you see ′Cause you and I were meant to be And now I got my target on track Baby you should know that I′m so good at that
Go to where you want Go to where you want I am gonna find you There ain′t no distance far enough My love′s gonna find you
Run to where you want, run to where you want Maybe I′ll remind you There ain′t no engine fast enough My love′s gonna catch you
Why waste your energy No point in fighting Let you heart surrender to your destiny
And this world′s not big enough For you to hide for long In this game of hide and seek There′s nowhere left to run
Run to where you want, run to where you want I am gonna find you There aint no distance far enough My love′s gonna find you Run to where you want, run to where you want Maybe I′ll remind you There aint no engine fast enough My love′s gonna catch you
Before I fall too fast Kiss me quick but make it last So I can see how badly this will hurt me when you say goodbye
Keep it sweet Keep it slow Let the future pass and don′t let go But tonight I could fall too soon under this beautiful moonlight
But you′re so hypnotizing You′ve got me laughing while I sing You′ve got me smiling in my sleep And I can see this unraveling Your love is where I′m falling But please don′t catch me
See this heart won′t settle down Like a child running scared from a clown I′m terrified of what you do My stomach screams just when I look at you Run far away so I can breathe Even though you′re far from suffocating me I can′t set my hopes too high ′Cause every hello ends with a goodbye
But you′re so hypnotizing You′ve got me laughing while I sing You′ve got me smiling in my sleep And I can see this unraveling Your love is where I′m falling But please don′t catch me
So now you see why I′m scared I can′t open up my heart without a care But here I go It′s what I feel And or the first time in my life I know it′s real
But you′re so hypnotizing You′ve got me laughing while I sing You′ve got me smiling in my sleep And I can see this unraveling Your love is where I′m falling So please don′t catch me
If this is love Please don′t break me I′m giving up so just Catch me
I′ve been standing on the edge of the roof looking down I′ve been looking at the people that are gathering around I′ve been here for an hour or maybe even more Just looking at the people that I′ve never seen before Stupid little faces are all I can see Those silly little suckers are all laughing at me No wills cheap thrills you′re puppets to the master Your only satisfaction is my lonely disaster You learned how to creep and you learned how to crawl But you never really learned anything at all
When I was a boy everything was just fine I learned how to talk and how to walk in line I had to learn the rules that build our society But I could never understand it didn′t mean shit to me Everybody always told me I was out of my mind But I never did kiss anybodys behind I′m a lot older and I guess I should know But I′m standing on the roof just watching the show Standing on the edge and my step belongs to me And I′m telling you all I won′t miss what I see
One foot over there′s no time to turn around Both feet are over and I′m heading for the ground I′m flying in the air and I can feel the cool breeze The people on the pavement have gone into a freeze No space no time it′s like walking on the moon My heart is still beating but it won′t be soon I can hear myself scream when I hit the street I can′t feel a thing from my head to my feet I told you I would do it and I didn′t even cry
We were still in high school When I first met you Even then you were the prettiest girl That I ever knew And we carved our name on Everything that we could find The way that all kids do And although time has passed I still get surprised At the pulling in my chest When I know you′re coming by If this feeling′s proving anything It′s not everything Is gonna change with time You′re still mine
Did you know when you′re around My heart won′t it can′t slow down It beats so hard it makes it hard To catch my breath, to catch my breath
Don′t ever ask me if I′m sorry Or that I′m here with you Baby you can bet I don′t regret the girls I never knew Every day′s another first Another change for me To fall in love with you And I do:
Did you know when you′re around My heart won′t it can′t slow down It beats so hard it makes it hard To catch my breath, to catch my breath
Oh.. when you′re with me I stop seeing Any way to fail how do I explain I try to tell you what I′m feeling But how do I when all words pale
Did you know when you′re around My heart won′t, it can′t slow down It beats so hard it makes it hard To catch my breath, to catch my breath
Did you know when you′re around My heart won′t, it can′t slow down It beats so hard it makes it hard
To catch my breath, to catch my breath To catch my breath, to catch my breath To catch my breath, to catch my breath
Let′s tap your heart so we can paint the walls and see if anybody likes the tone or the pain. The hungry eyes waiting for life flash. Now they′re gonna see it. Now they′re gonna see it. Open your veins so we can make a pool and bathe and see if anyone complains of the stain.
Let′s strip you down so we can see your old scars. Now you′re gonna feel it. Now you′re gonna feel it.
Show me how to shine now!
Have you turned, turned to dust? (I saw an insect learn to fly.) Have you ever seen the kingdom of the flys? (Its form was scorned.) Have you lost the sense of touch? (I saw it stay in sovereignty.) Have you ever turned to dust?
Let′s lift you up so we can see how fast you fall. We always thought that you could fly; now you′ll crawl. The lack of loyalty you thought you once felt Now you′re gonna feel it. Now you′re gonna feel it.
Show me how to shine now.
Have you turned, turned to dust? (I saw an insect learn to fly.) Have you ever seen the kingdom of the flys? (Its form was scorned.) Have you lost the sense of touch? (I saw it stay in sovereignty.) Have you ever turned to dust?

Too fast, too furious, too strong Too slick, too hard to get along Too weird - don′t know where you belong Too much, too right up in your face Too heavy, get off of my case So sad I′ll put you in you place Get ready for this...
[chorus] Keep on running Catch me if you can (Hey! Hey! Hey!) Keep on running Catch me if you can (Hey! Hey! Hey!)
Too dizzy, too much junk TV Too busy living through a screen Don′t ever question what you see Totally absolutely numb Together till the job is done What if tomorrow never comes? Are you ready for this?
[chorus] Keep on running Catch me if you can (Hey! Hey! Hey!) Keep on running
[bridge] Too soon, to easy to give in Just gotta trust what′s within So can you feel me crawling under your skin So catch me if you can!

Dance, dance, we′re falling apart to half time (I′ll be your number one with a bullet) (Na na nananana) Dance, dance, and these are the lives you′d live (A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it) (Na na nananana)

When all is said and done We′re not the only ones Who look at life this way That′s what the old folks say But every time I see them Makes me wish I had a gun If I thought that I was crazy Well I guess I′d have more fun (Guess I′d have more fun)
Oooh, the Catcher In The Rye Again Won′t let ya get away from him (Tomorrow never comes) It′s just another day... Like today
You decide Cause I don′t have to And then they′ll find And I won′t ask you At anytime Or long hereafter If the cold outside′s As I′m imagining It to be Oh, no
Lana nana na na na Lana nana na nana
Ooh, the Catcher In The Rye Again Won′t let ya get away from him (Tomorrow never comes) It′s just another day... Like today
When all is said and done We′re not the only ones Who look at life this way That′s what the young folks say But every time I see them Makes me wish I had a gun
If I thought that I was crazy Well I guess I′d have more fun (Guess I′d have more fun) Cause what used to be′s Not there for me And ought to for someone That belongs... Insane... Like I do
Oh, no Not at all
On an ordinary day Not in an ordinary way All at once the song I heard No longer would it play For anybody Or anyone That needed comfort from somebody Needed comfort from someone Who cared To be Not like you And unlike me
And then the voices went away from me Somehow you set the wheels in motion That haunt our memories You were the instrument You were the one How a body Took the body You gave that boy a gun
You took our innocence Beyond our stares Sometimes the only thing We counted on When no one else was there
[CHORUS] Ooo hey, Well i′ll be damned I′ve been around the world and back again From Japan and Amsterdam, With a ticket in my hand, singing Catch me if you can, catch Catch me if you can Ooo yeah, well i′ll be damned I′ve been around the world and back again From Japan and Amsterdam, With a ticket in my hand, singing Catch me if you can, catch Catch me if you can
What kind of fuckery has been required lately, It seems like these MC′s heads need deflating, And i′mma play the pin cause I′ve been waiting, Now make my mark on pop culture from my generation, 80s babies from the age of nintendo, Transformers, ninja turtles, hungry hippos, GI joes, phot, can′t forget the clothes Kangaroos with the zipper had a couple those Breaking into heavy spinning on my elbows, Couldn′t get me out my ?? R.I.P ?? You know I miss you more then Shaq miss free-throws, that′s alot You put it back in the air, when the wee′s [whistle] gone Reminiscing bout when we were young, but now we′ve grown
Ooo hey, Well i′ll be damned I′ve been around the world and back again From Japan and Amsterdam, With a ticket in my hand, singing Catch me if you can, catch Catch me if you can Ooo yeah, Well i′ll be damned I′ve been around the world and back again From Japan and Amsterdam, With a ticket in my hand, singing Catch me if you can, catch Catch me if you can
Comon ya′ll Lets talk about the scene for a minute, I know we ain′t been seen in a minute, We left it for a minute now we all up in it Baby boy if you′ve got them big dreams go and get it, Never been the type with tight jeans, I wont fit it When I see those scene girls, bet they all gonna get it And I′m living clean Now a lot of ya′ll won′t get it Now it′s mean but I don′t give a damn if ya′ll don′t get it So fresh and so clean in my new jean While I′m laughing at the bacon, you′re all crying a the clinic I read a couple blogs and they had my ass livid But now I′ve got my own to whirl, gotta live with it Never played basketball, but I could show you how to dribble Make your moves in that black hatch back Honda Civic Like I did in high school, wishin′ I could relive it But I can′t so let′s go on, give the hook a revisit.
Ooo hey, well i′ll be damned I′ve been around the world and back again From Japan and Amsterdam, With a ticket in my hand, singing Catch me if you can, catch Catch me if you can Ooo yeah, well i′ll be damned I′ve been around the world and back again From Japan and Amsterdam, With a ticket in my hand, singing Catch me if you can, catch Catch me if you can
[BRIDGE] Maybe I′m wrong, But after 26 years I feel I′ve payed my dues So when you play this song, Just know that I live my life the way I choose, And now I stand here proudly in L.A. At a sold out crowd And when no one′s around I refuse, to be as inferior to you
Ooo hey, well i′ll be damned I′ve been around the world and back again From Japan and Amsterdam, With a ticket in my hand, singing Catch me if you can, catch Catch me if you can Ooo yeah, well i′ll be damned I′ve been around the world and back again From Japan and Amsterdam, With a ticket in my hand, singing Catch me if you can, catch Catch me if you can Ooo yeah, well i′ll be damned I′ve been around the world and back again From Japan and Amsterdam, With a ticket in my hand, singing Catch me if you can, catch Catch me if you canOoo yeah, well i′ll be damned I′ve been around the world and back again From Japan and Amsterdam, With a ticket in my hand, singing Catch me if you can, catch Catch me if you can
