I Know There's A Word For This Lyrics - Aimee Mann

I know there's a word for this 

I know there's a word for the way I'm feeling 

I know there's a word for this 

I know it, and it's on the tip of my tongue 

And it won't go any further. 

I know there's a word for this 

I know, 'cause it's in the dictionary 

And when I find what it is 

I'll write it down in case it comes up again 

I'll be certain to avoid it. 

So, take this down: 

I just feel so beat 

And I think it's time 

To admit defeat 

I thought I got mine 

But that uphill climbing 

Is never through. 

I know there's a word for this 

I know 'cause we've all at sometime said it 

Like when we were little kids 

We'd fight each other 'til someone would give in 

And you'd make him tell you 'uncle'.
