Nate Philips - What I Say to You (Doesn't Matter) Lyrics

Mountaineers climb up to just a single spot
And if I say I'll reach you at the top
Well the snow will still have covered our tracks
Reaching and digging we'll stop

Doesn't matter what I say to you
Doesn't matter if it's right or true
Aw how ya gonna take me at the end of the day?
What'll you put me through?

Groucho has brows like exclamation points
They accented his jibs and jabs
Well I can douse the fire if you light it up
And we'll be laughing till we catch a cab

Doesn't matter what I say to you
Doesn't matter if it's right or true
How ya gonna take me at the end of the day?

And if your arm is hanging over my shoulders
You can rest your troubles there, too
But I'm not the one that rustled the wind
So neither can I make skies blue
Neither can I make skies blue

I'll build you a monument
If you took a photoshoot
Stepped on history with the edge your boot
Come with me we'll celebrate the mundane
The glory of the smudge on the window pane
We'll build houses for the fairies to come

And I'm not sure just what I give to you
I don't know just what is best to do
Aw how you gonna take me at the end of the day
What'll you put me through
How you gonna take me at the end of the day
What'll you put me through

And when you look into the tin can of my eye
Do you throw a coin down there?
I'm not sayin' to abandon your wishes
But instead take a piece of my hair
I'm not sayin' to abandon your wishes
But instead take a piece of my hair
Yeah, instead take a piece of my hair
