Incubus Lyrics

"Martini" lyrics


She was a new, mean beauty queen
money, drugs, magazines.
That didn't do nothin'
that didn't do nothin'.
They gave her diamonds,
shiny boys, city speak, every toy,
that didn't do nothin'
no nothin' for her.
You can lead a horse to water
but you can't expect it to drink.
Now ain't that somethin'?
Now ain't that somethin'?
Yea when the world is at you're gate
that won't satiate.
Why are you crying if you work for nothing at all?

Don't be a fly in my martini, baby
come on down.
That roof is high and I'm not climbing tonight,
come down,
and I'll give you something (hey!) to cry about.

Fast cars, bougie bars,
Try your hand at drowning the scars.
It won't do nothin',
It won't do nothin'.
Even the best frame won't change
your wet painting into a mona lisa, a mona lisa
You've got to dry your eyes, baby I know it's your party and you'll
cry if you want to,
cry if you want to.
Yea when the world is at your gate, that won't fill your plate.
Why are you crying if you want for nothing at all?

Don't be a fly in my martini, baby
Come on down.
That roof is high and I'm not climbing tonight,
Come down,
and I'll give you something (hey!) to cry about.
