Come Inside My Kitchen (Tiddas)
Music video available
Come inside into my kitchen
And let you feed your weary mind
You can settle and I will listen
To the problems that you find
In this world in which we live
I’ve got time to give
I’ve got time to give
Nah-nah-nah-nay, nup-du-dum x2
Face looks tired, your body’s shaking
With all the thinking that you do
There’s a mountain of pain on your shoulders
It’s too much to bear alone
Feel the pain and all the suffering
Carry the load
For what?
For nothing
Nah-nah-nah-nay, nup-du-dum x2
Get outta your head
And into this world
Can’t solve the problems, no – no!
At least not on your own
Not on your own
Woah x4
Woah - Come inside into my kitchen
Woah - Rest your feet, your weary mind
Woah - You can settle & I will listen
Woah - To the problems that you find
Nah-nah-nah-nay, nup-du-dum x2
To the problems that you find
Nah-nah-nah-nay, nup-du-dum x2
