Blues Traveler Blues Traveler - Hook Lyrics

It doesn't matter what I say
So long as I sing with
inflection
That makes you feel I'll convey
Some
inner truth or vast reflection
But I've said nothing
so far
And I can keep it up for as long as it takes/>And it don't matter who you are
If I'm doing my
job then it's your resolve that breaks

Because
the hook brings you back
I ain't tellin' you no
lie
The hook brings you back
On that you can rely/>
There is something amiss
I am being insincere/>In fact I don't mean any of this
Still my confession
draws you near
To confuse the issue I refer
To
familiar heroes from long ago
No matter how much Peter
loved her
What made the Pan refuse to grow

Was
that the hook brings you back
I ain't tellin' you
no lie
The hook brings you back
On that you can
rely

Suck it in suck it in suck it in
If
you're Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn
Make a desperate
move or else you'll win
And then begin
To see/>What you're doing to me this MTV is not for free/>It's so PC it's killing me
So desperately I
sing to thee
Of love
Sure but also rage and hate and
pain and fear of self
And I can't keep these feeling
on the shelf
I've tried well no in fact I lied/>Could be financial suicide but I've got too much pride
inside
To hide or slide
I'll do as I'll
decide and let it ride till until I've died
And only
then shall I abide by this tide
Of catchy little tunes/>Of hip three minute diddys
I wanna bust all your
ballons
I wanna burn of all your cities to the ground/>But I've found
I will not mess around
Unless I
play then hey
I will go on all day
Hear what I say/>I have a prayer to pray
That's really all this
was
And when I'm feeling stuck and need a buck
I
don't rely on luck because

Because the hook
brings you back
I ain't tellin' you no lie/>The hook brings you back
On that you can rely
