And So What
Caroline Loeb Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Maybe she′s too hazy
For sure, not in a hurry
Happy she looks, happy she'll be as long
As she stays lazy as can be
In any position
She has a disposition
She just wants to be low
And so what
In any position
She has a disposition
For pillows and mellows
She just wants to be low
And so what
Might look crazy
Plays it cool and cosy
You look and she′s not there
She's in her sheet, somewhere
Moves her hips, it's her trip
Stays in bed, she paints her nails in red
In any position
She has a disposition
For pillows and mellows
She just wants to be low
And so what
In any position
She has a disposition
For pillows and mellows
She just wants to be low
And so what
In any position
She has a disposition, and so what
For pillows and mellows
She just wants to be low
And so what
And so what, and so what, and so what
And so what
Your sunny, she won′t share, your sorrow
She won′t bear
If she's fair, all ain′t fair, whatever she don't care
Love wouldn′t move, sleep in pills and booze
Day and night in bed, she is born to snooze
In any position
She has a disposition, and so what
For pillows and mellows
She just wants to be low, and so what
In any position
She has a disposition
For pillows and mellows
She just wants to be low
And so what
In any position, and so what
She has a disposition
For pillows and mellows
She just wants to be low
And so what
In any position
She has a disposition, and so what
For pillows and mellows
She just wants to be low
In any position
She has a disposition
And so what
For pillows and mellows
She just wants to be low
And so what
In any position
She has a disposition, and so what
For pillows and mellows
She just wants to be low
And so what
In any position, and so what
She has a disposition
For pillows and mellows
She just wants to be low
And so what
