Blues Travelers Hook Lyrics

It doesn't matter what I say
So long as I sing with inflection
That makes you feel I'll convey
Some inner truth or vast reflection
But I've said nothing so far
And I can keep it up for as long as it takes
And it don't matter who you are
If I'm doing my job then it's your resolve that breaks
Because the hook brings you backI ain't tellin' you no
lie
The hook brings you back
On that you can rely
There is something amiss
I am being insincere
In fact I don't mean any of this
Still my confession draws you near
To confuse the issue I refer
To familiar heroes from long ago
No matter how much Peter loved her
What made the Pan refuse to grow
Was that the hook brings you back
I ain't tellin' you no lie
The hook brings you backOn that you can rely
Suck it in suck it in suck it inIf
you're Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn
Make a desperate move or else you'll win
And then begin
To seeWhat you're doing to me this MTV is not for free
It's so PC it's killing meSo desperately I sing to thee
Of loveSure but also rage and hate and pain and fear of self
And I can't keep these feelings on the shelf
I've tried well no in fact I lied
Could be financial suicide but I've got too much pride inside
To hide or slide
I'll do as I'll decide and let it ride till until I've diedAnd only
then shall I abide by this tideOf catchy little tunesOf hip three minute diddysI wanna bust all your
ballonsI wanna burn of all your cities to the groundBut I've foundI will not mess aroundUnless I
play then heyI will go on all dayHear what I sayI have a prayer to prayThat's really all this
wasAnd when I'm feeling stuck and need a buckI
don't rely on luck becauseBecause the hook
brings you backI ain't tellin' you no lieThe hook brings you backOn that you can rely
