Extra Pale Lyrics

[Chorus]
Extra pale
Oh, you're frail now
I couldn't laugh about it
Tragedy sets you free, but
I should have known it from the start

[Refrain]
I should have known that it was
Just another sequel
Just another reason for you

[Verse 1]
How's your day?
Did it go your way? But
You never ask about it
All the things I wish I'd be
I should have known it from the start

[Refrain]
I should have known that it was
Just another sequel
Just another reason for you
Just another sequel
Just another reason for your sighs
See The Goo Goo Dolls Live
Get tickets as low as $48
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Extra pale
Oh, you're frail now
I couldn't laugh about it
Tragedy sets you free, but

[Outro]
I should have known that it was
Just another sequel
Just another reason for you
Just another sequel
Just another reason for you

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 [?]
