Elastica - Nothing Stays The Same Lyrics






Took back time, take an instant pleasure
Credit is due for the life of leisure
Get to work and work gets done
Best at being was not best at all

Face the facts, being best got bitter
Simple tastes won't suit me better
Used to matter but that got done
Best at being was not best at all

Nothing stays the same
Always change to remain

Less than fine peace of mind
Keep in check there is no time

Tasks take time and time took effort
Packed in pieces and pieced together
Tend to work and work gets done
Best at being was not best at all

    Took back time, take an instant pleasure
    Credit is due for the life of leisure
    Get to work and work gets done
    Best at being was not best at all

    Face the facts, being best got bitter
    Simple tastes won't suit me better
    Used to matter but that got done
    Best at being was not best at all

    Nothing stays the same
    Always change to remain

    Less than fine peace of mind
    Keep in check there is no time

    Tasks take time and time took effort
    Packed in pieces and pieced together
    Tend to work and work gets done
    Best at being was not best at all
