Artist: TV Girl
Track: 99.5
Lyrics
What if the truth is required but your tongue is dry and you can't get it out now?
What if you're floating away but you get too high and you can't come back down?
Up, up and away, looking back at the rest of the flocks to the down, down back
What if you oughta go home but you bump again, and you bump again
Most of us just won't make it
Most of us just gotta fake it
But ninety's close and
Ninety nine is almost true
Ninety nine and half, it just won't do
It just won't do
It just won't do, ooh, ooh, ooh
It just won't do
What if your man steps out and you're stuck with the junk and they're working on the clamp down?
Oh, I thought I told you before, you never take it so far that you can't take it back down
But if you wanna fix something broken, man, it's bad enough we exist on this stolen land
'Cause if you just can ignore the past, she says, "What the hell you talking about baby, Of course you can"
Ooh
Most of us just won't make it
Most of us just gotta take it
Someone right the wrongs, oh
Someone sing a song to kill my blues
Ninety nine and half, it just won't do
It just won't do
It just won't do, ooh, ooh, ooh
It just won't do
