Common Sense Lyrics - Common Sense - John Prine

You can't live together, you can't live alone 

Considering the weather, oh my how you've grown 

From the men in the factories to the wild kangaroo 

Like those birds of a feather, they're gathering together 

And feeling exactly like you 

They got mesmerized by lullabies and limbo danced in Pairs 

Please lock that door, it don't make much sense 

That common sense, don't make no sense no more 

Just between you and me, it's like pulling 

When you ought to be shoving 

Like a nun with her head in the oven 

Please don't tell me that this really wasn't nothing

One of these days, one of these nights 

You'll take off your hat and they'll read you, your rights 

You'll wanna get high every time you feel low 

Hey, Queen Isabella stay away from that fella 

He'll just get you into trouble, you know? 

But they came here by boat and they came here by plane 

They blistered their hands and they burned out their brain 

All dreaming a dream, that'll never come true 

Hey, don't give me no trouble, or I'll call up my double 

We'll play piggy-in-the-middle with you

You'll get mesmerized by alibis and limbo dance in Pairs 

Please lock that door, it don't make much sense 

That common sense, don't make no sense no more 

It don't make much sense, that common sense 

Don't make no sense no more
