Geronimo
Unwritten Law Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't want to think about it anymore
Lying curled and naked on the floor
And I don't want to hear those words you say
What were they anyway?

[Chorus]
Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh
So here I go
(So here I go, so here I go)
Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh
Geronimo

Don't want to get up outta bed today
It seems much harder than it was yesterday
And I don't want to hear those words you say
What were they anyway?
What were they anyway?

[Chorus]

Let's leave today
And forget everything
Can't really take this place
So what you say?

Let's leave it all behind
And don't look back
We won't rewind this time
Let's get away





[Chorus: x2]
