Clap Your Hands Say Yeah – Impossible Request (alternative version) Lyrics

Alternative

Wasted nights and wasted days
I wouldn't put anyone in my place
You see I've got it made
I cannot think, I cannot speak
I cast my honorary degree
Into the middle of the playground

And it was a stranger who put me here
And in a way I'm at the mercy of a stranger again
To take me away

My dear, don't argue with the law
Your pretty eyes will get you far
But you see you cannot stay there
You see the man upon the beach
Who's preaching everlasting peace
But he can't find a word for himself

And it was a stranger who put me here
And in a way I'm at the mercy of a stranger again
To take me away

I know it, I know
I'm asking too much
But I had the nerve to ask
Impossible request
Impossible request

Please don't ask me where I'm going or staying
I never know
Please don't ask me where I'm going or staying
I never know
Please don't ask me where I'm going or staying
I never know
Please don't ask me where I'm going or staying
I never know
