Jason Mraz - Wordplay

I ve been all around the world

I ve been a new sensation

But it doesn t really matter

In this de-generation

The sophomore slump is an uphill battle

And someone said it aint my scene

Cause they need a new song

Like a new religion

Music for the television

I can t do the long division

Someone do the math

For the record label puts me

on the shelf up in the freezer

Got to find another way to live the life of leisure

So I drop my top,

Mix and I mingle

Is everybody ready for the single and it goes...

La La La La La

Now listen closer to the verse I lay

(Ha La La La La)

It s all about the wordplay

(Ha La La La Love)

The wonderful thing it does

Because, because

I am the wizard of ooh s and ah s and fa-la-la s

Yeah the Mister A-Z

They say I m all about the wordplay

And it s time to get ill I got your remedy

For those who don t remember me

Well let me introduce you to my style

I try to keep a jumble

And the lyrics never mumble

When the music s makin people tongue-tied

You want a new song

Like a new religion

Music for the television

I can t do the long division

Someone do the math

For the people write me off like I m a one-hit wonder

Got to find another way to keep from goin under

Pull out the stops,

Got your attention

I guess it s time again for me to mention

The wordplay

La La La La La

Now listen closer to the verse I lay

(Ha La La La La)

It s all about the wordplay

(Ha La La La Love)

The wonderful thing it does

Because, because

I am the wizard of ooh s and ah s and fa-la-la s

Yeah the Mister A-Z

They say I m all about the wordplay

I built a bridge across the stream of consciousness

It always seems to be a flowin

But I don t know which way my brain is goin

Oh the ryhmin and the timin

Keeps the melodies inside me

And they re climbin

Til I m running out of air

Are you prepared to take a dive

into the deep end of my head

Are you listening to a single word I ve said

Ha La La La La

Listen closer to the words I say

Ha La La La La

I m stickin with the wordplay

Ha La La La Love

The wonderful thing it does

Because, because

I am the wizard of ooh s and ah s and fa-la-la s

Yeah the Mister A-Z

They say I m all about the wordplay

Ha La La La La

I m all about the wordplay

Ha La La La La

I m stickin with the wordplay

Ha La La La Love

I love the wonderful thing it does

Because, because

The ooh s and ah s and fa-la-la s i m back in love

For the Mister A-Z they say

It s all about the word
