Biography

Leon Thomas (born October 4, 1937 – died May 8, 1999) was an American jazz singer, who made his mark in 1969, singing "The Creator Has a Master Plan" with [a21147] and showing that even avant-garde jazz can become popular under some circumstances. A fairly conventional singer, the most unusual aspect to Thomas was that he often broke out into yodelling in the middle of a vocal, a device since utilized occasionally by [a120620]. He also appeared as a sideman in many situations, including on a [a38201] 1970 record and with [a79340] (who he worked with in 1973-1974). Thomas died of heart failure on May 8, 1999 .

LYRICS

Ooh, na-na-na, hey
Oh
You deserve the truth
Not another sweet excuse
Can you just close your eyes
So you don't see the mess I hide?

Oh, you opened your doors
You're so damn mature
Off-white walls with no pictures of who's been here before
Oh, oh
And I didn't think to pack
On the first night that we had
Came back with some baggage
The reason that I'm damaged

And I knew I messed up the room
Had dirt up on my shoes
And I still walked into you
I still walked into you
Oh, it's such a mess (Oh)
We can make it up in bed, yeah
Dirt all on my shoes
I'm tracking it all over the house
Tracking it all over the house
Tracking shit all over the house, oh
Would you still want me walking around?
Still got me walking around

Oh, uh
You got post-therapy clarity (Oh)
And I got good sex and sincerity (Sincerity)
That night at the bar
You saw my heart and said you wasn't scared of me
Oh, woah
I had visions of you crashing out
'Cause I been playing this terribly, uh (Terribly, yeah)
Forget what's fair to me
But you deserve serenity, yeah

And you opened the doors (You)
You're so damn mature
Off-white walls with no pictures of who's been here before
Oh, oh, yeah, uh
And I didn't think to pack
On the first night that we had
And came back with some baggage (Oh)
The reason that I'm damaged

And I knew I messed up the room
I had dirt up on my shoes
And I still walked into you
I still walked into you (Oh)
Oh, it's such a mess (A mess)
We can make it up in bed
Dirt all on my shoes (My shoes)
And I'm tracking it all over the house
Tracking it all over the house
Tracking shit all over the house (Oh)
Would you still want me walking around?
Still got me walking around (Oh)

You still got me walking around
You still got me walking around
You still got me walking around
Still got me walking around
Still got me walking around
You still got me walking around
Oh, yeah, yeah (Yeah, oh)
Walking around
You still got me walking around, uh, uh
You still got me walking around
You still got me walking
(Oh, oh)
