I'll Be You Lyrics - Bastards Of Young: The Best Of The Replacements - Replacements

If it's a temporary lull 

Why'm I bored right outta my skull? 

Man, I'm dressin' sharp an' feelin' dull 

Lonely, I guess that's where I'm from 

If I was from Canada 

Then I'd best be called lonesome 

And if it's just a game 

Then I'll break down just in case 

Oh yeah, we're runnin' in our last race 

Well, I laughed half the way to Tokyo 

I dreamt I was Surfer Joe 

An' what that means, I don't know

A dream too tired to come true 

Left a rebel without a clue 

And I'm searching for somethin' to do 

And if it's just a game 

Then we'll hold hands just the same 

So what, we're bleeding but we ain't cut 

And I could purge my soul perhaps 

For the imminent collapse 

Oh yeah, I'll tell you what we could do 

You be me for a while 

I'll be you 

A dream too tired to get to 

Left a rebel without a clue 

Won't you tell me what I should do? 

Oh if it's just a lull 

Why'm I bored right outta my skull? 

Oh yeah, keep me from feeling so dull

And if it's just a game 

Then we'll break down just in case 

Then again, I'll tell you what we could do 

You be me for a while 

You be me for a while 

And I'll be you
