Lyrics Barenaked Ladies

Barenaked Ladies

Life, in a Nutshell

When she was three

Her Barbies always did it on the first date

Now she's with me,

There's never any need for them to demonstrate

She's like a baby, I'm like a cat;

When we are happy, we both get fat and still

It's never enough, It's never enough,

It's never enough

But I don't tend to worry 'bout the things that other people say

And I'm learning that I wouldn't want it any other way

Call me crazy but it really doesn't matter

All that matters to me is she

Her life in a nutshell

No way would she want it to change me

It's not that easy 'cause

My time is often decided for me

For me

She memorized every pencil crayon color in the box

Her blue-green eyes complement the burnt sienna in her locks

She's at the movies, I'm on the phone;

When we're separated, we're never alone, but still

It's never enough, It's never enough,

No it's never enough

But I don't tend to worry 'bout the things that other people say

And I'm learning that I wouldn't want it any other way

Call me crazy but it really doesn't matter

All that matters to me is she

Her life in a nutshell

No way would she want it to change me

It's not that easy 'cause

My time is often decided for me

For me

I fell down with no one there to catch me from falling

Then she came 'round

And only her tenderness stopped me from bawling my eyes out

I'm OK, and that's why

Her life in a nutshell

No way would she want it to change me

It's not that easy 'cause

My time is often decided for me

For me

But I don't tend to worry 'bout the things that other people say

And I'm learning that I wouldn't want it any other way

Call me crazy but it really doesn't matter

All that matters to me is she
