The Original

"The Original" is the second track on Switchfoot's eighth album, Vice Verses.

Lyrics
Got your hands in your pockets Like you’re ready to pay Got your eyes out of socket Like you’re a mile away Mouth shut like a locket Like you’ve nothing to say

Speak your mind up come on baby free yourself

Free yourself Ain’t no one to do it Free yourself Ain’t nothing to it Free yourself Don’t let nobody try and take your soul You’re the original

So you say you’re just a lost soul I know you better than that So you say you’re just lost in the wash I know you better than that So you say you’re just a face in city race Wasted and sick of it all

Speak your mind up come on baby free yourself

Free yourself Ain’t no one to do it Free yourself Ain’t nothing to it Free yourself Don’t let nobody try and take your soul You’re the original
