The Wallflowers Hand Me Down lyrics

Whatever I know too much
You won't be anyone
Now tell me what you are thinking of
How could you think you'd be enough?

It's not that you've stayed too long
It's not that you've done something wrong
It's not your fault
But you embarrass yourself

You're a hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good and you look like you should
But you will never make us proud

You've been used by an army of cues
You've been touched by the lips of a queen
Now we've all made good use of you
But you won't be needed again

So why don't you move and let someone else in?
Make some room for a new harlequin
'Cause you'll never know when
You'll disappoint us again

Hand me down

It's better when you're not around
You feel good and you look like you should
But you won't ever make us proud

Now you're a hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good and you look like you should
But you could never make us proud, you're a hand me down

So look at you with your worn out shoes
Livin' proof, evolution's through
We're stuck with you
This revolution's due

'Cause you're a hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good and you look like you should
But you could never make us proud

Now you're a hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good and you look like you should
But you won't ever make us proud
