Song lyrics

Hey baby

This is not a challenge

It just means that I don't love you as much as I always said I did


I was wrong

I have been laughable wrong

Sandpaper, paper mache, chalk, and hung out web


Of the city and your skin now..

I didn't have to be afraid

I didn't have to feel so stupid

I can see myself! I can feel


That's just the slightest bit of finesse

Might have made a little less mess

But it was what it was,

Let's all get on with it, now!


Discoverer! [4x]

Laughing! [Laughing]

Discoverer!


Floating across Houston

This is where I am.

I see the city rise up tall.

The opportunities and possibilities.

Well, I have never felt so called.


Remember the vodka espresso night of discovery,

Remember that?

Laughing! Discovery!

Oh how I look back and reflect

How I felt it, how it set.

I don't have to feel so wrong

Now I wake up dreaming saffron, turmeric and brass


Just the slightest bit of finesse

Might have made a little less mess

But it was what it was,

Let's all get on with it, now!


Just the slightest bit of finesse

Might have made a little less mess

But it was what it was,

Let's all get on with it, now!


Discoverer! [5x]
