Ben Folds Presents: The Spartones From Greensboro, NC not the same university a cappella version

Select language to translate this lyric

You took a trip
and climbed a tree
at Robert Sledge's party
and there you stayed
'til morning came
you were not the same after that
you gave your life
to Jesus Christ
after all your friends went home
you came down
you looked around
you were not the same after that
you were not the same after that
you were not the same, the same
you see 'em drop like flies from the bright sunny skies
they come knockin' at your door with this look in their eyes
you've got one good trick and you're hangin' on you're hangin' on...
You took the word
and made it heard
and eased the people's pain and for that
you were idolized, immortalized
and you were not the same after that
Walking tall
you'd bought it all
and you were not the same after that
'til someone died
on the waterslide
and you were not the same, the same
You see 'em drop like flies from the bright sunny skies
they come knockin' at your door with this look in their eyes
you've got one good trick and you're hangin' on, you're hangin' on...
(you were not the same)
ooooooooh
(you were not the same)
oooooooh
You see 'em drop like flies from the bright sunny skies
they come knockin' at your door with this look in their eyes
you've got one good trick and you're hangin' on, you're hangin' on
you're hangin' on
you're hangin' on
you're hangin' on
