Dostoevsky lyrics

Every time I get you to myself

You're goin' on about somebody else

Please don't keep comparing me to him

'Cause that's some tough competition

Oh yeah, that's tight

He changed your life

Showed you the light

He opened your eyes

And every night

I roll over and sigh

Oh well, that's nice

Too bad he's not here tonight

Dostoevsky

Oh, Dostoevsky

My heart's on fire

She just wanna talk about Dostoevsky

I even changed the bedsheets

I'd love you if you'd let me

But all damn night

She just wanna talk about Dostoevsky

All these Russian writers I don't even know

Oh, Dostoevsky, tell me

Why won't she let you go?

Every time I look into your eyes

I see a cold Siberian sky

I'm working really hard to get to know ya

Yeah he's alright but how's he gonna hold ya

That's right

He changed your life

Showed you the light

He opened your eyes

And every night

I roll over and sigh

Oh well, that's nice

Too bad he's not alive

Dostoevsky

Oh, Dostoevsky

My heart's on fire

She just wanna talk about Dostoevsky

I even changed the bedsheets

I'd love you if you'd let me

But all damn night

She just wanna talk about Dostoevsky

All these Russian writers I don't even know

Oh, Dostoevsky, tell me

Why won't she let you go?

These literary giants, she puts me right beside 'em

And I'm tryna decide if they're laughin' or they're cryin'

Dostoevsky

Oh, Dostoevsky

My heart's on fire

She just wanna talk about Dostoevsky

I even changed the bedsheets

I'd love you if you'd let me

But all damn night

She just wanna talk about Dostoevsky

All these Russian writers I don't even know

Oh, Dostoevsky, tell me

Why won't she let you go?
