Singing Machine Lyrics - Kimya Dawson

we switched to jay leno from da ali g show 

to see some kids that we know do what they do on TV. 

sometimes i wish i was there, but mostly i just don't care 

i cry and laugh and forth and back, it's all good comedy 

and there's no rhyme or reason for the changing of the seasons 

sometimes the winter lasts for months sometimes it lasts for days 

the world is an amazing place there's gaping holes in outer space 

sunburned for the first time skin is peeling off my face 

and bruno said what anders said some producer said to young lennon 

"they can't all be ballads julian" 

and bruno said what anders said some producer said to young lennon 

"they can't all be ballads julian" 

open up your eyes and see the beauty over there 

open up our ears and be surprised by what you hear 

'cause it's not just on the radio, it's not just on the video 

it isn't all downloadable, there's music everywhere 

and the fact that they divide us should be enough to unite us 

we are the world so boys and girls let's all collaborate 

'cause when we play together we won't notice the bad weather 

like flashlight tag when it's real cold or kickball in the rain 

and bruno said what anders said some producer said to young lennon 

"they can't all be ballads julian" 

and bruno said what anders said some producer said to young lennon 

"they can't all be ballads julian" 

get out there and be seen, you're lean and clean, 

you're barely nineteen, you're a singing machine 

get out there and be seen, you're lean and clean, 

you're barely nineteen, you're a singing machine 

get out there and be seen, you're lean and clean, 

you're barely nineteen, you're a singing machine 

get out there and be seen, you're lean and clean, 

you're barely nineteen, you're a singing machine 

get out there and be seen, you're lean and clean, 

you're barely nineteen, you're a singing machine 

it doesn't matter what you look like, doesn't matter what you sound like 

doesn't matter if they like you, just remember to be kind 

and tell someone you miss them, tell someone you need them 

tell someone you wish you could be with them all the time 

sounds silly but it's not a game, making music makes me sane 

i sing away my pain and everything turns out okay 

and i'm not talking fame and glory, 'cause that's a different story 

this story is about how truth and love can save the day 

and bruno said what anders said some producer said to young lennon 

"they can't all be ballads julian" 

and bruno said what anders said some producer said to young lennon 

"they can't all be ballads julian" 

and bruno said what anders said some producer said to young lennon 

"they can't all be ballads julian" 

and bruno said what anders said some producer said to young lennon 

"they can't all be ballads julian" 

"they can't all be ballads julian"
