Hook Lp Version Lyrics & Chords By Blues Traveler

It doesn't matter what I say
So long as I sing with inflection
That makes you feel that I'll convey
Some inner truth of vast reflection
But I've said nothin' 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 doin' my job, 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
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 doin' to me, this MTV is not for free
It's so PC, it's killin' 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 feelings 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 until I've died
And only then shall I abide this tide
Of catchy little tunes of hip three minute ditties
I wanna bust all your balloons, I wanna burn all of your cities
To the ground, 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
When I'm feeling stuck and need a buck, I don't rely on luck
Because the hook brings back, I ain't tellin' you no lie
The hook, on that you can rely
