"Stand Back" lyrics - JOAN OSBORNE

JOAN OSBORNE
"Stand Back"

I need a ken doll pilot with a sexy smile in a flying limosine,
To pick me up go the extra mile and deliver me to the scene.

I need five more hours in the average day,
One to get the work done four to play,
Be a devil and angel you know what I mean

Stand back,
Out of my way
Stand back,
Your crowding my day
No time for good manners, do what I say
If your not here to help, then your just in the way

The road is littered with the faint of heart,
The fools who fell from stress
Its a fact of life that you can't catch up,
Better learn how to love the mess.

So I'll just kick back ignore the noise,
Have my way with the pretty boys
What I dream at night don't even try to guess

Stand back (stand back)
Out of my way
Stand back (stand back)

Your crowding my day
Now this is my time to step up to the mike,
Like rock and roll lightening Im ready to strike

Stand back (stand back)
Ohoh
Stand back

My reputation in the neighbourhood,
Is that I do my best when I am up to no good
If you know me at all, there is one thing you should have learned
Get close enough to me, you'll be blissed out or burned

Stand back (stand back)
Out of my way
Stand back (stand back)
Your crowding my day
Stand back(stand back)
Ohoh
Stand back(stand back)
Stand back (stand back)
Stand back
