Lyrics Ben Kweller

Ben Kweller

Free

Everybody wants the password

Everybody wants the green light

Everybody wants the eye drops

That make the colors of the future bright

But I don’t need any answers

To get me through another 24

‘Cause anytime I have the gold key

I get locked outside of another door

Be sure that you wanna be free

Be sure that you wanna be free

Got a glimpse of the fortune

Not as good as comin’ home

Wish the “Headman’s Handbook”

Was nothin’ that I ever, ever owned

But it’s too late for anger

And there’s no more time for Lady Luck

She’s lookin’ for a stranger

All she wants to do is...

Be sure that you wanna be free

Be sure that you wanna be free

Everybody wants the last word

‘Cause they cannot tell when it’s through

Desperately delivered to you...

We got too many people

Standin’ still like nothin’s wrong

We all came to throw away the hassle

But the lines was too long.

Be sure that you wanna be free

Be sure that you wanna be free
