Eraserheads Lyrics

Of the things that could go wrong along the way
You'll get by with a smile
You can't win at everything but you can try
Baby, you don't have to worry
'Cause there ain't no need to hurry
No one ever said that there's an easy way
And they don't want you anymore
This sounds funny but I'll say it anyway
Girl, I'll stay through the bad times
Even if I have to fetch you everyday
You'll get by if you smile
You can never be too happy in this life
In a world where everybody hates a happy ending story
It's a wonder love can make the world go 'round
But don't let it bring you down and turn your face into a frown
You'll get along with a little prayer and a song
(To-do-do-do)
(To-do-do-do)
(To-do-do-do, do-do)
(Do-do, do-do)
Let me hear you sing it
(To-do-do-do)
(To-do-do-do)
(To-do-do-do, do-do)
(Do-do, do-do)
'Cause in a world where everybody hates a happy ending story
It's a wonder love can make the world go 'round
But don't let it bring you down and turn your face into a frown
You'll get along with a little prayer and a song
Lift your head, baby, don't be scared
Of the things that could go wrong along the way
You'll get by with a smile
Now it's time to kiss away those tears goodbye
(To-do-do-do)
(To-do-do-do)
(To-do-do-do, do-do)
(Do-do, do-do)
Let me hear you sing it
(To-do-do-do)

Beatles ng 'Pinas.
Sila yung gumagawa ng mga kantang habang pinapakinggan mo, hindi mo mapipigilang matulala sa malayo at mapangiti na lang bigla. Walang dahilan. Parang bata. Masaya ka lang.
Di kelangan ng kung ano anong kaartehan, hindi kelangan ng magarang damit, magarang stage, bigyan mo lang ng gitara si Marcus, okay na.
Sila yung nag-supply ng gasolina para umusad ang OPM. Halos lahat ng banda idolo sila eh. Kumbaga sa PBA, Ginebra sila. Pang-masa. Bata, matanda, may ngipin o wala, mapapangiti sa mga kanta nila.
If only they were together until now. Oh well, nevertheless, the magic stays. Eraserheads will live forever. Guys, iparinig natin to sa mga anak natin ha? Bata pa lang sila, teach them the real meaning of music. That way, hindi na kakalat ang shit sa mundo.

My papa used to sing me this song when he was still alive. This song used to be my lullaby, my papa sings it while scratching my back so I can fall asleep. I miss him, I miss his voice. I can't listen to this song at night anymore, because I always end up crying.
