Anders Osborne – Ya Ya lyrics

So you wanna do the right thing
But you don't know when to start
You wanna hear your voice ring
But you can't find your part
You wanna feel real special
But you're afraid to be strange
You wish things were different
But you don't wanna change

So you've got yourself a plan
But you ain't got no tools
You wanna be the man
But you hang around fools
You wanna lead every dance
But you ain't got no groove
You're looking to advance
But you're stuck and can't move

Now you ask the man upstairs
Where's my love this ain't fair
Are you up there?

Ya ya ya ya, make way
Ya ya ya ya, this way
Ya ya ya ya, make way
Sing tra la la la all day
Keep giving away your good thing
And a good thing will come your way.

It shook you up, but now you're thinking
Is he right or is he wrong
Maybe there ain't no meaning
Just like a silly little song
And when you go, move slow, that's how you learn
But you've got to stop talking
What you give is what you earn
The man says “Of course I'm here, I'm everywhere
I'm getting tired of you asking.”
Sing,

Ya ya ya ya, make way
Ya ya ya ya, this way
Ya ya ya ya, make way
Sing tra la la la all day
Keep giving away your good thing
And a good thing will come your way.
