Academy Is..., The - Mayonnaise Lyrics






Fool enough to almost be it
Cool enough to not quite see it
Doomed
Pick your pockets full of sorrow
And run away with me tomorrow
June

We'll try and ease the pain
But somehow we'll feel the same
Well, no one knows
Where our secrets go

I send a heart to all my dearies
When your life is so, so dreary
Dream
I'm rumored to the straight and narrow
While the harlots of my perils
Scream

And I fail
But when I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I will

Mother weep the years I'm missing
All our time can't be given
Back
Shut my mouth and strike the demons
That cursed you and all your reasons
Out of hand and out of season
Out of love and out of feeling
So bad

When I can, I will
Words defy the plans
When I can, I will

Fool enough to almost be it
And cool enough to not quite see it
And old enough to always feel this
Always old, I'll always feel this

No more promise no more sorrow
No longer will I follow
Can anybody hear me
I just want to be me
When I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I will

Academy Is..., The Mayonnaise Comments
  1. C.... C....

    Still Greatest cover of all time

  2. H.... C....

    Mayonaise is already the best song in my life...Imo U guyz did a great cover even need 2 fix in some part 2 make it a perfect cover...nice try of improvement

  3. A.... C....

    I try to be pretty reasonable with stuff like this... but this is so bad... I don't see how people can even come close to saying this is a good version of this song. It's a travesty of a cover

  4. J.... A....

    🙌🏽

  5. B.... ....

    You've successfully pussified what may be the best pumpkins song ever written.

  6. B.... S....

    This is the worst shit I've ever heard. Fucking butchered this song.

  7. A.... M....

    Not quite bad, but sincerely I don't like this cover. It lacks passion and strength.

  8. a.... ....

    Song of the life.

  9. J.... ....

    TAI is freakin awesome I wish they could come back :'(
    LOVE LOVE LOVE this song in TAI version!! William sounds beautiful!
    I'd run away with him any day!

  10. H.... ....

    Actually, this is alot better then I thought it would be coming into this.

  11. c.... r....

    nope... dont like it... lol actually not a bad cover, I just hate how they dummed down the guitar lines.. the fade in intro and lack of 2nd guitar line seems like a cheap way to avoid something they werent good enough to replicate... pumpkins were notorious for layering dozens of guitar tracks on top of each other to get that "wall" of sound...

  12. f.... ....

    Much better than ex-Pumpkin James Iha's version interestingly enough.

  13. r.... ....

    william's voice is wonderful in this!

  14. R.... ....

    I think this is really good but I like the Pumpkins version more cause it's more raw and full of emotions....this sounds to happy too me...but still really good ; )

  15. H.... H....

    the original is so raw and edgy i am suprised that this cover came out this good! Different side of the same coin.

  16. a.... ....

    awesome cover <3

  17. E.... S....

    TAI just made the song even more beautiful i love TAI i have since i was like 5 then i saw them when i was 7 and now i am 11 i miss them soooooo much william is so nice

  18. M.... ....

    yeah.. nothing comes close to the original song, but you gotta admit, this version's also very good.
    my opinion is, smashing pumpkins' version is too slow, and more boring than TAI's version. if I should make a choice, i would choose The academy is... somehow they made it more beautiful. i don't understand, how can you DON'T like it.

  19. V.... ....

    one of the most beautiful songs ive ever heard... and also an amazingly well-performed cover, different in style but conserving the feeling and the angst of the original. there are very few musicians that can do that. this guys are true artist...

  20. d.... d....

    hey what program do you use to make these?

  21. N.... ....
