Karaoké Hide in Your Shell Supertramp

Hide in your shell cos' the world is out to bleed you for a ride

What will you gain making your life a little longer

Heaven or hell was the journey cold that gave you eyes of steel

Shelter behind painting your mind and playing joker

Too frightening to listen to a stranger

Too beautiful to put your pride in danger

You're waiting for someone to understand you

But you've got demons in your closet

And you're screaming out to stop it

Saying life's begun to cheat you

Friends are out to beat you

Grab on to what you can scramble for

Don't let the tears linger on inside now cos' it's sure time you gained control

If I can help you

If I can help you

If I can help you just let me know

Well, let me show you the nearest signpost to get your heart back and on the road

If I can help you

If I can help you

If I can help you just let me know

All through the night as you lie awake and hold yourself so tight

What do you need a second-hand movie-star to tend you

I as a boy

I believed the saving cure for pain was love

How would it be if you could see the world through my eyes

Too frightening the fire's becoming colder

Too beautiful to think you're getting older

You're looking for someone to give an answer

But what you see is just illusion

You're surrounded by confusion

Saying life's begun to cheat you

Friends are out to beat you

Grab on to what you can scramble for

Don't let the tears linger on inside now cos' it's sure time you gained control

If I can help you

If I can help you

If I can help you just let me know

Well, let me show you the nearest signpost to get your heart back and on the road

If I can help you

If I can help you

If I can help you just let me know

I wanna know

I wanna know

I wanna know

Oh, I've got to know

I wanna know you

I wanna know you

Well let me know you

I wanna feel you

Oh, I wanna touch you

Please let me near you

Let me near you

Can you hear what I'm sayin'

Well I'm hopin', I'm dreamin'

I'm prayin'

Well I know what you're thinkin'

See what you're seein'

Never ever let yourself go

Hold yourself down

Hold yourself down

Why d'ya hold yourself down

Why don't you listen

You can trust me

Oh there's a place

I know the way to

A place there is no need to to feel you to feel that you're not alone

Oh won't you hear me

I know exactly what you're feelin'

Cos' all your troubles are within you so begin to to see that I'm just bleeding too

Oh, love me, love you loving is the way to

Help me, help you

Why must we be so cool

Oh no fools

Oh no

Oh oh
