Tell Me Is It True - UB40

Shrunk all my clothes in the washing machine Running on two or three hours of sleep (Clearly) There's a light flashing in my car, I don't know what it means You know what I mean? Thought I knew chaos then I turned eighteen Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh It's kinda overwhelming but Hey! Lemons make lemonade Flowers bloom in the rain Growing up is a pain And it is what it is Okay! It's not the end of the world There's always light where it burns Just remember the words And it goes like this It is what it is, what it is, what it is, what it is It is what it is, what it is, what it is, what it is It's kinda weird, kinda fun On the speck on the rock (Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh) You can laugh, you can dance But your stomach cannot (Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh) You can trip, you can slip You can fall down again, again, again and again And it all works out in the end Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh It's kinda overwhelming but Hey! Lemons make lemonade Flowers bloom in the rain Growing up is a pain And it is what it is Okay! (Okay!) It's not the end of the world There's always light where it burns Just remember the words And it goes like this It is what it is, what it is, what it is, what it is It is what it is, what it is, what it is, what it is (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Na-na-na, na-na-na-na, na-na (Hey-hey! Hey-hey) Na-na-na, na-na-na-na, na-na (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Hey! Lemons make lemonade Flowers bloom in the rain Growing up is a pain And it is what it is Okay! (Okay!) It's not the end of the world There's always light where it burns Just remember the words And it goes like this

Call me, Tell me Call me, tell me we should meet tomorrow I can't see things quite your way But I think that I could show you Things that lye below your thoughts and words And your gardens and your stained glass day Times you come to me and said you don't know why. I think that there might be something wrong You could change your thoughts before I go But then you'd know that you were right where I wanted you And you didn't know You were meant to worship and accuse (chose) Anything you want but now it looks like you will lose All the things you needed when you were the one Can't be found you know they've just begun To crumble all around you And you see them tumble down without a thought or care for you Oh what you do

Don't tell me to stop Tell the rain not to drop Tell the wind not to blow 'Cause you said so, mmm, mmm Tell the sun not to shine Not to get up this time, no, no Let it fall by the way But don't leave me where I lay down Tell me love isn't true It's just something that we do Tell me everything I'm not But please don't tell me to stop Tell the leaves not to turn But don't ever tell me I'll learn, no, no Take the black off a crow But don't tell me I have to go Tell the bed not to lay Like the open mouth of a grave, yeah Not to stare up at me Like a calf down on its knees Tell me love isn't true It's just something that we do Tell me everything I'm not But don't ever tell me to stop (Don't you ever) tell me love isn't true It's just something that we do (Don't you ever) tell me everything I'm not But don't ever tell me to stop (Don't you ever) Please don't Please don't Please don't tell me to stop (Don't you ever tell me) don't you ever Don't ever tell me to stop (tell the rain not to drop) Tell the bed not to lay Like an open mouth of a grave, yeah Not to stare up at me Like a calf down on its knees
