    LYRICS
    Fancy, a big house
    Some kids and a horse
    I cannot cry
    But nearly guarantee a divorce
    I think that I love you
    I think that I do
    So go on Mister
    Make Miss Me, Mrs. You
    I love you, I love you, I love you, I do
    I only make jokes to distract myself
    From the truth, from the truth
    Fancy, a fast car
    A bag full of loot
    I can nearly guarantee
    You'll end up with the boot
    I love you, I love you, I love you, I do
    I only make jokes to distract myself
    From the truth, from the truth
    I love you, I love you, I love you, I love
    I only make jokes to distract myself
    From the truth, from the truth
    I love you, I love you, I love you, I do
    I only make jokes to distract myself
    From the truth, from the truth
    From the truth, from the truth
    From the truth, from the truth

      I know. Ah music was my life blood then. The excitement of a new CD playing it until it was scratched to death. The rush to replace it but not have the heart to throw out the original. Later on I remember buying two of the same so one was to play, one to collect for just me.

      She doesn't typically sing through her nose. She sounds more jazzy than blues. The various genres of music that she sings is what makes me admire her the most. You know it's her, and yet her persona is so different. Amazing singer/song writer. Very under-rated.

      @@jemenfous9343 Yeah, contrast her image then and now. that whole gimmick of covering her face with wild larger than life bows in her hair and campy apparel was childish and made her look desperate for a unique and exciting pop impression. Like gwen stafani in some ways. And the music was even worse imo. Just seemed to me like she was catering to the appeal of the masses while trying to maintain a mysterious and animated appearance.

    I went to a KCRW benefit show at the (RIP) Universal Amphitheater..JAYsus! like 20+y ago FFS.. Beck came up to do a cpl songs and after he did 1, Sia walked out and of course the place went nuts, they did a cpl more and were fan freekin-tastic together, great chemistry, they both killed it. I was in the after-party and saw her standing to one side talking to a few people. I waited for a chance then went over with my wife and introduced ourselves and she was super sweet, friendly, and gracious, we chatted with her for a few min. thanked her for her incredible performance with Beck and for the hours literally of happy music a bunch of my MTN biker buddies and i had been enjoying for months as the Zero 7 CD was on continual loop in our shuttle truck back in those days. We'd all by then fallen a li'l bit in love with her just from listening to her sing to us regularly, so it was fantastic to be the first of us to actually see and then meet her in person and thank her for being her and wish her the best.... That was a very good night, & one of the best shows ever.

    It's not a lyrical song in a teen mag if it resonates with you ?
    This voice is full of body and soul with heart break meaning Unless your too deaf dumb and blind to appreciate her?
    If anyone has watched Sia perform live, you will feel it
    powerful!!
    I believe this song is about her lack of self worth and her super ability to push people away because when she is with them she is expecting loss
    It's a totally a selfless open way to be But selfish on the other person as she drives them away and when she realises she creates beautiful music
    Kind of a self fulfilling prophecy unfortunately
    I know because I am also there so please don't judge Sia has an imperfect soul that is full of beauty
    What has any negative commenters written and sung ?
