Ask Me Lyrics - Singles - Freshlyground

If you ask me what streets I'm from 

You'd probably laugh at me 

You'd expect me to tell you tales 

Of friends I'd made ran into trouble with 

And all those sorts of things 

If you ask me what songs I know 

You'd raise your hands in the air 

They're not cool, they're not hip 

They're not the ones you grew up with 

And all those sorts of things 

If you ask about the clothes I swear 

You wouldn't give the time of day 

They're not rude, they're not hip 

They're not ones you would be seen in 

If you were down to your last penny 

If you were down to your last penny

If you ask about technology 

You'd roll your eyes in your head 

I am one of those fundies who keep up 

So as not to get left behind 

And all those sorts of things 

All those sorts of things 

But ask me about 

What I know of the original source 

What I know about what makes you sore 

When you're out in the world alone 

Ask me about birds 

Ask me about flowers 

Ask me about smiling easily 

With someone you've only met that day 

Photos 

My little brother didn't come to school today 

The teacher didn't seem to know exactly what to say 

But I saw him out the window 

Gold chiffon and pink flamingo 

Oh, those diamond rings 

He was younger than I remember 

Singing glory hallelujah 

I am free of this 

All those sorts of things 

I asked him about 

What he knew of the original source 

What he knew about what makes me sore 

When I'm out in the world alone 

Asked him about birds 

Asked him about flowers 

Asked him about smiling easily 

With someone he'd only met that day 

Asked him about groove 

Asked him about mothers 

Asked him about sunshine in the streets 

And faded rain on your windowpane 

On truth I'll keep you inspired 

Ask me about the hours in your garden 

Baby, oh how I loved your face
