Don’t Ask Me Why (Live at Madison Square Garden, New York, NY - 2006) Lyrics

(Uno. Dos. Uno, dos, tres, cuatro!)
All the waiters in your grand café leave their tables when you blink
Whoa-oh oh-oh-oh
Every dog must have his everyday, every drunk must have his drink
Don’t wait for answers, just take your chances, don’t ask me why
All your life U had to stand in line, still you’re standing on your feet
Whoa-oh, oh-oh-oh, all your choices make you change your mind
Now your calendar’s complete
Don’t wait for answers, just take your chances, don’t ask me why
Umm, you can say the human heart is only make-believe
And I am only fighting fire with fire
You are still the victim of the accidents you leave
Sure as I’m a victim of desi-yi-yire
All the servants in your new hotel, throw their roses at your feet
Whoa-oh, oh-oh-oh
Fool them all but baby I can tell, you’re no stranger to the street
Don’t ask for favors, don’t talk to strangers, don’t ask me why
Andale! [Hurry!]
Yesterday you were an only child, now your ghosts have gone away
Whoa-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, you can kill them in the classic style, now you parlez-vous francais
Don’t look for answers, you took your chances, don’t ask me why
Don’t ask me why

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
