Lyrics
0:00A painter needs no reason to make a thing of art
0:04Yes there is no switch to stop and start to the flow
0:09A gardener has it's season
0:12His green thumb and his heart
0:14Don't ask a man why does your garden grow
0:20A poet sits for hours with words apon his tongue
0:25He cannot help to rhythm his doom and gloom
0:30So if you taste my flowers your see that I'am a mon
0:36That certain group that lucky troop for whom it's
0:45Simply second nature
0:48To wish away the gray
0:52To take licorice stick and make a dream
0:58Yes there's no rhythm or reason
1:01I was simply made this way
1:04What's strange to you is nature to me
1:10It's simply second nature
1:13To paint outside the lines
1:16It's really is the way that I was born
1:22You see I've been selective
1:25To create the unexpected
1:30And make each day feel
1:32Just like
1:34Christmas morn
1:39The castle toke a tassel
1:42And turned it on it's head
1:44It isn't right or wrong it's what he felt
1:49And dolly even more some
1:52Would positively dread
1:54Explaining why his hands of time should melt
2:00And me I take sweet honey
2:03And make a taste for rows
2:06What can I say it's simply what I do
2:12Some men make pots of money
2:15There happy I spouse
2:18But
2:19Be grateful that for just a lucky few its
2:28Simply second nature
2:31To see what isn't there
2:34The mind is such a wonder to explore
2:41And though some nights I dread
2:44All the voices in my head
2:47I rather be this way than be a boar
2:53It's simply second nature
2:56To dream of something new
2:59And wake on fire and try to scup each day
3:04It's no blessing it's a curse
3:07Wait
3:08No strike that and reverse
3:14I wouldn't have it any other way
A painter needs no reason to make a thing of art Yes there is no switch to stop and start to the flow A gardener has it's season His green thumb and his heart Don't ask a man why does your garden grow A poet sits for hours with words apon his tongue He cannot help to rhythm his doom and gloom So if you taste my flowers your see that I'am a mon That certain group that lucky troop for whom it's Simply second nature To wish away the gray To take licorice stick and make a dream Yes there's no rhythm or reason I was simply made this way What's strange to you is nature to me It's simply second nature To paint outside the lines It's really is the way that I was born You see I've been selective To create the unexpected And make each day feel Just like Christmas morn The castle toke a tassel And turned it on it's head It isn't right or wrong it's what he felt And dolly even more some Would positively dread Explaining why his hands of time should melt And me I take sweet honey And make a taste for rows What can I say it's simply what I do Some men make pots of money There happy I spouse But Be grateful that for just a lucky few its Simply second nature To see what isn't there The mind is such a wonder to explore And though some nights I dread All the voices in my head I rather be this way than be a boar It's simply second nature To dream of something new And wake on fire and try to scup each day It's no blessing it's a curse Wait No strike that and reverse I wouldn't have it any other way
