Текст песни: Gotta Sing High + перевод

You sit there all day putting meaning into songs

If you’re looking for a hit, you’re going about it all wrong

All that psychobabble and mouthfulls of clever

I’ll tell you when you’ll hit the charts… how about never?

Well i have studied on this and my calculation’s true

Here’s a little tip that could work for even you

You gotta sing high, then even higher

Gotta look sensitive, mess up your hair

But not like you meant to, sing things like ‘you're beautiful'

And then repeat the line. and then repeat the line

Repeat the line

You’re not getting any younger, you’re sure no pretty face

You got like, what, maybe a dozen friends on myspace?

You lost all your blue-collar credibility

You google your own name, you get kenny rogers or kenny g

No, the way i see it, you got one choice to make

Right now you’re caught between a folk and a hard place

You gotta sing high, then even higher

Gotta look sensitive, mess up your hair

But not like you meant to, sing things like ‘you're beautiful'

And then repeat the line. yeah. repeat the line

I’ll tell you what you need, consider it a gift

Before the brass ring is too heavy to lift

You do what i say, get a nice looking band

You’ll soon have the critics eating out of your hand

Don’t forget the breakdown

Who wants to hear your politics, you foaming at the mouth?

Forget about playing anywhere even near the south

Maybe out in oregon they’re still hugging trees

But here we’d just as soon not think about the world, so please

If you feel you must spout off about your day

Could you do it in that pleasing, androgynous sort of way?

And sing it up high. no… higher. sensitive. hair

You’re beautiful, it’s true

And then repeat the line. repeat the line

Shawn pelton… drums

Marty ballou… bass

Duke levine… ac & el guitar

Kenny white… piano, B3

Angela reed, dee carstensen, amy helm, catherine russell… background vocals
