M. I.A. LYRICS - Tell Me Why

"Tell Me Why"



You won't gimmie no mo'

You won't gimmie no mo'

You won't gimmie no mo'

You won't gimmie no mo'

You won't



Tell me why

Things change but it feels the same

If life is such a game

How come people all act the same

Tell me why

Things change but it feels the same

If life is such a game

How come people all act the same



I've been coming up for a while on your radar

And I know I made it just by counting up my haters

I got a speedboat get away like later

You better have a load of cheddar if you don't got data

Cause you can live it up, pull it up, start reeling

Start throwing hands up like you're mad at the ceiling

You could make a killin' but don't forget the feeling

People stealing money and down with double-dealin



You won't gimmie no mo'

You won't gimmie no mo'

You won't



Tell me why

Things change but it feels the same

If life is such a game

How come people all act the same

Tell me why

Things change but it feels the same

If life is such a game

How come people all act the same



You can take me courthouse

You can take me jail

You can take me anywhere

But you can't get me there

You can ask me where I'm going and I'll tell you crazy

But when I get to where I'm going you should come with me

You've be staying up, pull me up start reeling

I'm throwing up my hands like I'm mad at the ceiling



Tell me why

Things change but it feels the same

If life is such a game

How come people all act the same

Tell me why

Things change but it feels the same

If life is such a game

How come people all act the same



I got roots for my head

I got food in my paw

And the old ways are dead with the now ones we got

There's water in my paw

And I'm half in half not

And the old kind is broke with the new kind we bought

I drink alcohol

Know the words to Wonderwall

I read like a code

While I do my time on road



Tell me why

Things change but it feels the same

If life is such a game

How come people all act the same

Tell me why

Things change but it feels the same

If life is such a game

How come people all act the same

Tell me why

Things change but it feels the same

If life is such a game

How come people all act the same
