Cover art for Hold That Thought lyrics by Ben Folds Five

She broke down and cried at the strip-mall acupuncturist While the world went on outside The Chinese doctor took her arm, Gazed at the floor and read her wrist for the secrets in her life. 'Here's your medicine,' she said, 'If you not smile at him, then someone else will.' You hold that thought, and I'll hold that thought, too. Ya-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

I was shown the 36 ways I'm not available On a simple easy chart Later on that evening on a beach in Santa Monica It was a very risky start Suppose this stupid chart is right In a year will you still feel the same

Oh well, you hold that thought, and I'll hold that thought, too Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Ya-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Did you ever see the film where a man is given spectacles That make the world look upside-down? He falls about the place, but in time he somehow readjusts And when they take the glasses off, The eyes he's always had see sky below him And he falls again

But you hold that thought, and I'll hold that thought You hold that thought, and I'll hold that thought You hold that thought, and I'll hold that thought

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
