Never Named Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I had a dog, he was a mix
He loved me like a God
But I was just a kid
The kind mother likes
Now I'm big like the sky
But I'm downsized inside

[Chorus]
I'll lay this all to rest
I'm just a baby who looks like a boy
I'm getting all depressed
I'm just a baby who looks like a boy

[Verse 2]
I got my father's sense and my big brother's pants
And I look like a man, and I feel like an ant
Just a speck on the ground
Growing like a weed, a fleck of a seed
I'll put my hand in flames

[Chorus]
I'm just a baby who looks like a boy
I feel like I'm born again
I'm just a baby who looks like a boy
Yeah
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
I'll put this all to rest
I'm just a baby who looks like a boy
I'm getting all depressed
I'm just a baby who looks like a boy
I'm just a baby who looks like a boy
Yeah

[Outro]
And I'll keep hanging from your hair
And I'll keep playing in the sand
Just as long as I can

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 [?]
