Paula Cole Nietzsche Lyrics

Nietzsche Lyrics

How many times did  

 I have to hear you say to me  

 Self obsessed artist  

 Center of your universe  

 Well I believed your every word  

 And I believed you were my god  

  

 CHORUS:  

  

 Nietzsche's eyes  

 Nietzsche's kind  

 Failed in flight to us  

 And all my love  

  

 Grandmother  

 Mother  

 And now I see it in myself  

 I take on the water  

 Until the dam threatens to break  

 I became a little doll  

 My voice became too small  

  

 Chorus  

  

 I'm shakin'  

 I'm shakin'  

 I'm getting down this fantasy  

 And I'm shakin'  

 I'm shakin'  

 I'm getting down this  

 Getting down this  

 You were not my superman  

 I didn't know  

 Just how I felt  

 All my love  

 I'm shakin'  

 I'm shakin'  

 I'm getting down this fantasy  

 I'm shakin'  

 I'm shakin'  

 I'm getting down this, getting down this  

 You were not my superman  

  

 I wasn't honest  

 I tried to philosphize  

 Only too late did  

 I see I wore nietzsche's eyes  

 Now that I step back to see  

 I haven't been me  

  

 Chorus  

  

 I'm shakin'  

 I'm shakin'  

 I'm getting down this fantasy  

 and I'm shakin'  

 I'm shakin'  

 I'm getting down this  

 getting down this (9 times
