Gratitude Lyrics - Oingo Boingo

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? 

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 somethin' 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 the dinner table 

In the stillness of disgrace 

Now is that gratitude? 

Now is that gratitude? 

Now is that gratitude? 

Now is that gratitude? 

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 

Of castles made of sand 

Ooh 

I dream of you sometimes 

Ooh 

I dream of you sometimes 

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 the dinner table 

In the stillness of disgrace 

Now is that gratitude? 

Now is that gratitude? 

Now is that gratitude? 

Now is that gratitude? 

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 

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 the dinner table 

In the stillness of disgrace 

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 

I dream of you sometimes 

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?
