Rhett Miller Lyrics
"Ain't That Strange"

You were sitting on a gold mine
working in a shop
I was rolling around in a ghost town
waiting on a record to drop

You say you wanna get happy
in your own skin
Well you shook it up for a while
and I'm begging you to do it again

We had a long weekend,
and then you were gone,
wanted to be one in a million,
baby, isn't that wrong?

I've had it up to here with nothing
I need everything for a change
Ain't that strange, ain't that strange?
Ain't that strange, ain't that strange?

You got to set a transmission
from deep to deep space
tried to keep ahead but I've sensed it
and I brought you back to my place

We had a love supreme as you can find
I wanted to be one in a million,
baby, do you mind?

I've had it up to here with nothing
I need everything for a change
Ain't that strange, ain't that strange?
Ain't that strange, ain't that strange?
Rock on, yeah!

Hurry up and figure it out
'cause I'm already waiting around for you so long
And if you want it, then you know it
but you want it, well you got it,
c'mon, c'mon, c'mon!
Ow! Uh!

I've had it up to here, I've had it up to here
I've had it up to here with nothing,
I need everything for a change
Ain't that strange, ain't that strange?
Ain't that strange, ain't that strange?
Alright!
