Once I told her, (I told her) I’m just breathing’. (my mother) I never told her, (never told her) Anything again. (Never, forever again) Once I told her, (I told her) I’m just breathing’. (my mother) I never told her, (never told her) Anything again. (Never, forever again) You can use a lotta words or you can use a few (few) Just to get em on the dance floor (dance floor) Then the main pulls back (just a little more) And then (here you use more syllables than ever before) [verse] Calgon (Calgon) Calgon! Calgon! (Calgon) CALGON! CALGON! Calgon! Calgon! [spoken] Ancient Chinese secret, huh? [laughter] CALGON! (calgon) (calgon) (calgon) Buy some CALGON at your local supermarket, today (today) (today) (today) [END] Once I told her, (I told her) I’m just breathing’. (my mother) I never told her, (never told her) Anything again. (Never, forever again) Once I told her, (I told her) I’m just breathin’. (my mother) I never told her, (never told her) Anything again. (Never, forever again) Once I told her, (I told her) I’m just breathin’. (my mother) … Every single bridge I’ve ever built has gotten burned up But I am still yearning for the joy of making art It’s like trying to make a key, for a lock that can’t be found… …. [pre-chorus] The cruel jabs of criticism damages the heart, trying to shoot me down when I was only getting started … … Every single bridge I’ve ever built has gotten burned up But I am still yearning for the joy of making art It’s like trying to make a key, for a lock that can’t be found… …. [pre-chorus] The cruel jabs of criticism damages the heart, trying to shoot me down when I was only getting started … BUT IF THE VISION'S TRUE, IT WILL FIND ITS WAY THROUGH THE NOISE THROUGH THE PAIN (through the voices and the pain) EVERY SINGLE DAY
