Barenaked Ladies - Life, in a Nutshell lyrics

[Barenaked Ladies - Life, in a Nutshell lyrics]

When she was three
Her Barbies always did it on the first date
Now she's with me there's never any need for
Them to demonstrate
She's like a baby, I'm like a cat
When we are happy, we both get fat and still
It's never enough, It's never enough
It's never enough

But I don't tend to worry 'bout
The things that other people say
And I'm learning that I wouldn't
Want it any other way
Call me crazy but it really doesn't matter
All that matters to me is she

Her life in a nutshell
No way would she want it to change me
It's not that easy cause
My time is often decided for me for me

She memorized every pencil crayon
Color in the box
Her blue-green eyes complement the burnt
Sienna in her locks
She's at the movies, I'm on the phone
When we're separated, we're never alone
But still
It's never enough, It's never enough
No it's never enough

But I don't tend to worry 'bout
The things that other people say
And I'm learning that I wouldn't
Want it any other way
Call me crazy but it really doesn't matter
All that matters to me is she

Her life in a nutshell
No way would she want it to change me
It's not that easy cause
My time is often decided for me for me

I fell down with no one there
To catch me from falling
Then she came 'round
And only her tenderness stopped me
From bawling my eyes out
I'm OK, and that's why

Her life in a nutshell
No way would she want it to change me
It's not that easy cause
My time is often decided for me for me

But I don't tend to worry 'bout
The things that other people say
And I'm learning that I wouldn't
Want it any other way
Call me crazy but it really doesn't matter
All that matters to me is she
