The Koonyados - Better When You're Around Lyrics

For the first time in my life
Yeah, I'm an open book
All it took was one little look
And you had me on the hook
So here's a little parcel of paper
And a pen to take in your hand
And scribble down whatever you want
Your wish is my command

It's always better when you're around
It's always better when you're around
It's always better when you're around
And you tell me what to do

I'm averse to using my brain
Ain't got much of one
And when I'm left all alone
Well, it ain't no much fun
I'd rather have you tie me down
And tell me what you need
And if I do it all for you
And carry out the required deed
My desire you might feed
So I'll follow your lead
And my futility will recede
Oh, yeah

It's always better when you're around
It's always better when you're around
It's always better when you're around
And you tell me what to do
(Yeah)
It's always better when you're around
It's always better when I hear that sound
Of you yanking my chain around
So, mama, tell me what to do

When you come, come around here
Haven't seen you for a while
The animal inside of me
Oh, it grows so wild
I wanna take you far away
To a place we can't be found
And mess around all night long
The sounds will grow so loud

It's always better when you're around
It's always better when you're around
It's always better when you're around
And you tell me what to do
(Hey)
It's always better when you blow into town
And start jerking my chain around
It's always better when I hear the sound
Of you telling me what to do
Yeah

I wanna tell you I love you all the same
(I'm insane)
Even though you treat love like it's just a game
But no matter

It's always better when you're around
It's always better when you're around
It's always better when you're around
And you tell me what to do

There are times you want a man
And honey, I'm just a boy
But that sure don't stop you
From using me like a little toy
Yeah, I might have the mind
And heart of a teenage child
But I also got a little somethin'
Known to drive a girl wild
And it always makes you smile
Which will always make me smile
(Yes it will)

It's always better when you're around
It's always better when you're around
It's always better when you're around
And you tell me what to do
(Yeah)
It's always better when I roll into town
And catch you lurking around
It's always better when I hear that sound
Of you yanking my chain around
So, mama, tell me what to do
And I'll fall more in love with you
I said, "I'll fall more in love with you
If you tell me what to do"
Yeah, so mama, tell me what to do
Oh, yeah
