Lyrics

I gotta go
But it won't be so
I don't be back again
I gotta leave
But I don't believe
We won't be back again
No no no no
Everything's inside another
No no no no no, alright yeah

I gotta walk
But I'm gonna put my fork
Next to your spoon
I gotta split
It's a quaint
Old-fashioned way to leave the room 
The room...
Smell them burning leaves
Everyone beside another
No no no no no, alright yeah

Whatever you pray to
That's were you belong
I'm gonna get mine someday
I'm gonna get mine

I gotta laugh
But there's half
Of me that wants to sit and cry
I gotta split
It's a quaint
Old-fashioned way to say goodbye, goodbye
What's your mother for?
Not a launchpad for your father
No no no no no, alright yeah
Alright yeah
Alright... yeah




Alright, Yeah (in Swedish)
        lag mastc ga, men det ar inte att jag inte

        Vad du an ber till, det ar till den du hot
        Jag fir vad jag fortianar
        Vad jag fortjanar
        Jag maste skrarta, men halften av mig vill
        sitta ned och grata
        Jag mastedra, ert uraldrat sart att saga hej
        da hej da
        For vad ar din mor? Inte en start platta at
        din far
        Nej nej nej nej nej, okej yeah
