Heard It All Before
Pilot Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(OK)
(Get it together)

You leave me weary
You make me weak
I'm so tired
Oh, get me back to bed
when I'm gone

You make me worry
You make me work
I'm so tired
Don't call me
I don't want to get up

Had enough
Why not let me off
Hard enough, hard enough
With no money now
Living just enough
You've heard it all
Heard it all before, oh oh

Don't try to please me
You get me down
I'm too tired
Don't you call me
I don't want to get up

Had enough
Why not let me off
Hard enough, hard enough
With no money now
Living hard enough
You've heard it all
Heard it all before
hard enough
With no money now
Living hard enough




You've heard it all
Heard it all before
