Robyn Hitchcock - What You Is lyrics

Artist: Robyn Hitchcock

album: Goodnight Oslo


You might have been a villain
With a capital "V"
You might have had a plane to catch
And left your family
It doesn't matter what you was
It's what you is
And what you is
Is what you are
You might have been a midwife
Trying to help somebody in
You might have been a Cardinal
With an A to Zed of skin
Open up your window.
...Honey let me in
You might have been Columbia
Releasing orange 45s
("How does it feeeel")
You might have been the empress bee
In her furry little hive
("Buzz Buzz")
All the other bees:
"It doesn't matter what you was
It's what you is
And what you is
Is what you are."
Well you've got to come from somewhere
But you don't have to go back there.
...Anymore
Hey!
You might have been the police
Knock knock knocking at the door
You might have been a nice young man
On a nice young floor
It doesn't matter what you was
It's what you is
And what you is
Is what you are
One more, yeah
It doesn't matter what you was
Or what you is
And what you is
Is what you are
You might be looking innocent
Mmmm... deep inside you're not
You might be feeling guilty
Just a little not a lot
It doesn't matter what you was
It's what you is
And what you is
Is what you are
Yeah!
Hey... hey, hey
Hey... hey, hey
Hey... hey, hey
Hey, hey
