Lyrics Say Anything - Aimee Mann

Say Anything

You see me as a judge
Though I deny it
And hold me like a grudge
Then justify it
But when you make such claims
In searching for something that explains
Please take a good look at our remains
Ђ™cause if you were everything you say
Things would be different today
And maybe thereЂ™s room for compromise
But signs that I get say otherwise
Say anythingЂ™cause IЂ™ve heard everything
As hopeless as it seems
I wouldnЂ™t worry
YouЂ™ll get your chance to tell
Your side of the story
Andraising your right hand
Whatever defenses you had planned
Remember that when you take the stand —
If you were everything you say
Things would be different today
And though IЂ™d be happy to believe
IЂ™d have to be much more naive —
Say anythingЂ™cause IЂ™ve heard everything
Now IЂ™ve heard everything
Now IЂ™ve heard everything
So why do I refuse
The truthwhen I clearly cannot use
The comfort of one more lame excuse
Ђ™cause if you were everything you say
Things would be different today
And if you were everything you swear
We wouldnЂ™t be beyond repair
If you were everything you say
Things would be different today
And if there has got to be an if —
Get it over with
Say anythingЂ™cause IЂ™ve heard everything
Now IЂ™ve heard everything
Now IЂ™ve heard everything
