Gomez Album

Once upon a time, not too long ago, we took a day out in Manchester
We all fall down, there's not enough hours in our day
Played a bit of football, fell in to the union, barged our way to the toilet
With the Kung Fu king, there's not enough hours in our day

I remember seeing someone dressed in a suit looking like a lunatic
And we all fall down, there's not enough hours in our trip
*Well, academy cartwheel's breakin' your hands
We got lovely posters for sale
And we all fall down, there's not enough hours in our day

We like lovin yeah, and the wine we share
We like lovin yeah, and the wine we share

Finally made our way back to the train, rolling in to Sheffield tonight
And we all fall down, there's not enough hours in our life
So try and guess my weight and wait at the station
We're whippin Picadilly tonight
And it all falls down, there not enough hours in our life

We like lovin yeah, and the wine we share

(Talking clock: It's eleven oh seven pee em)

Won't you set me up and show me how, it's getting late
All these people around me wear me out, can't concentrate

But it's certainly the best in the town
For today, everybody's getting down
Caught in a crossfire, nobody cares
Under the table and calling your name

Won't you tie me up and seal my mouth with gaffer tape
Because these people around, people all the time
It's not the same, not the same

But you're certainly the best in the town
Don't walk away, everybody's getting down
Everybody's getting down
Caught in a crossfire, but nobody cares
Under the table and calling your name
Through champagne and perfume, I'll see you again
See you again

Everybody's getting down
Everybody's getting down
Everybody's getting down
Everybody's getting down

Hello, hello, I'm glad to see you
Now we'll only stop to say goodbye
We'll go, we'll go just where we want to
We won't let the others bleed us dry

'Cause I am but a fool for you, that's right
And I got nothing to lose that I'd choose tonight

Come on, come on we should be leaving
But I let another one go by
Oh no, oh no, I couldn't leave you
Though I know they'd like to make me try

'Cause I shot down the moon for you, that's right
'Cause I got something to prove to you tonight

I will always wait for you to catch me up, yeah
I will always wait for you to catch me up, yeah
I will always wait for you to catch me up, yeah
I will always wait for you to catch me up

You know, you know I want to please you
And now's the time to let me try
Will you, will you do as I do?
Will you wait for me to stew or die?

'Cause I don't ever wanna see you cry
Yeah, I will never leave you high and dry
I, yeah, I...

I will always wait for you to catch me up, yeah
I will always wait for you to catch me up, yeah
I will always wait for you to catch me up, yeah
I will always wait for you to catch me up, yeah
I will always wait for you to catch me up, yeah
I will always wait for you to catch me up, yeah
I will always wait for you to catch me up, yeah
I will always wait for you to catch me up, yeah

I will always wait for you to catch me
I will always wait for you to catch me
I will always wait for you to catch me

Pick up the pieces and we'll throw them away
Throw them away and replace them
Bring on the blues now, and we'll chase them away
Chase them away, celebration

All that I want is for you to be there when I call
And after all I know you will be there
You'll be there after all

Bring on the band now, set them playing away
And if they stay, well then embrace them
Bring on the people, we can dance and we'll play
Let's dance the night away, celebration

All that I want is for you to be here when I fall
And after all I know you will be here
You'll be here after all

There's only one thing it can be
There's only one thing it can be
There's only one thing it can be

[No lyrics]

We came, we came, we came again
To stem the tide and point the blame
Came back from more
Came back to see what you had in store
Everyone join the line, everyone
Yeah

So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world around?
And anybody else, cut 'em down

So you wanna make catastrophe?
Won't you send it right over to me
I got some time
Everybody running high

The same, the same, the same again
To steal the time and haunt the graves
Just because it's there
Don't mean you see it anywhere
Maybe it's a trick of the light
Maybe, yeah

So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world around?
And anybody else, cut 'em down

So you wanna make catastrophe?
Don't you send it right over to me
I got some time
Everybody come alive

Yeah
So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world around?
And anybody else, cut 'em down

So you wanna make catastrophe?
Don't you send it right over to me
I got some time
Everybody running high

So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world around?
And anybody else, cut 'em down

So you say we haven't turned around?
So you say we haven't turned around?
Just everybody else is going wrong

Wakin' up at nine
Looks at his paper
Can't deal with what he sees

All the troubled lives
The talk of the ages
He's crawling back to bed

Don't take a walk outside
Don't make any new friends
He's crawling back to bed

You'd better convince me man
'Cause I, I don't know what I'm doing
You'd better convince me man
'Cause I, I don't know who I'm screwing
You'd better convince me man
'Cause I, I don't know what I'm doing
You'd better convince me man
'Cause I, I don't know who I'm screwing

Callin' all his friends
He's known 'em for ages
Can't deal with what they say

Connective alibis
Cold and contagious
He's crawling back to bed

So cut off the phone lines
Stock up on water
He's crawling back to bed

You'd better convince me man
'Cause I, I don't know what I'm doing
You'd better convince me man
'Cause I, I don't know who I'm screwing
You'd better convince me man
'Cause I, I don't know what I'm doing
You'd better convince me man
'Cause I, I don't know who I'm screwing

You'd better convince me man
'Cause I, I don't know what I'm doing
You'd better convince me man
'Cause I, I don't know who I'm screwing
You'd better convince me man
'Cause I, I don't know what I'm doing
You'd better convince me man
'Cause I, I don't know who I'm screwing

You'd better convince me man
Yessir
You'd better convince me man
Yessir
You'd better convince me man
Yessir
You'd better convince me man

Love me for money or love me for gain
Love me for beauty or love me from shame
Somebody told me it's all just the same
It's all the same

I want to share in your closet affair
Sun in your hair ain't the point of this affair
Yet somebody told me it's going nowhere
It's going nowhere

ZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA
All the words inside my tiny heart
Are falling apart, falling apart today

Love me for money or love me for gain
Love me for beauty or love me from shame
Somebody told me that it's all the same
It's all the same

I want to share in your closet affair
The sun in your hair ain't the point of this affair
Yet somebody told me it's going nowhere
It's going nowhere

ZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA
All the words inside my tiny heart
Are falling apart, falling apart today
All the words inside my tiny heart

I was always told that you have to have the balls to break down
Now I'm older I'm not too sure
*I was always told that you had to have the high to low down [That's what the
tab book says but I'd go for - heart to meltdown]
An expert told me back in the war

Open hearted surgery never works
So eat your words or hide 'em in the dirt
Cos' I don't need nobody to know me
I don't want nobody to know

I was always told that you have to have the balls to break down
Now I'm older I'm not too sure
*I was always told that you had to have the high to low down
An expert told me back in the war

Open hearted surgery never works
So eat your words or hide 'em in the dirt
Cos' I don't want nobody to know me
I don't need nobody to know

Open hearted surgery never works
So eat your words or hide 'em in the dirt
Cos' I don't need nobody to know me
I don't want nobody to know

The other one feeds on my hesitation
Grows inside of my trepidaton
Buries his claws in my dislocation
I whisper your name to lose control

I take a step and over my shoulder
His roll-white (???) eyes shine wilder and bolder
His snow-white thighs press closer and colder
Murmer in me to let him go

The other one thrives on my desperation
Fills me up with my intoxication
Sinks his teeth in my deviation
Suffering me to lose control

Hold my mouth taste his breath
Hissing breathing are the same (???)
Snakes its sound inside my head
Sickening me to let him go

I take a step and over my shoulder
His pain-white eyes shine wilder and bolder
His stain-white thighs press closer and colder
Murdering me to let him go

I try to resist the gruesome kiss
I twist to deny the blood-hot bliss
But I always feel myself becoming him
And the last thing I remember
It isn't me -- it isn't me -- it isn't me

Never really gets it 'cause he's always on his own
Never really gets it 'cause, ooh, you never loved him
Better write a letter 'cause he's always on the phone
Better write a letter 'cause, ooh, you never loved him enough
You never loved him enough
Never loved him enough
Never loved him enough

He knows that he's pathetic as he stares out the window
Not peripatetic, he doesn't move a muscle
Juggle with semantics as you're telling him real slow
He never really got it 'cause you never gave it him enough
Never gave it him enough
Never gave it him enough
Never gave it him enough

There's no fun in walking wounded
He's never run

He wears a pained expression as he's taking off your clothes
It's only an impression of how you should have loved him
Step into the gutter 'cause you'll find him so shallow
He was the main attraction, but turned out too yellow
These wouldn't be the lyrics if this wasn't a song
You never will forget it because, ooh, you never loved him enough
Girl, you never loved him enough
You never loved him enough
(Love's a shame, it's cold and made of chicken bones)
Never loved him enough
Never loved him enough
(And I would give it all to see them fry)
Never loved him enough
Never loved him enough
(I'd like to say we're on our way to watch you go)
Never loved him enough
Never loved him enough
(But I would give the world to see your smile)
Never loved him enough

You're stuck with me and I can never see it changing
Do you believe this mess is getting any better?

Will you ride it out with me?
I can't see what it is I should or shouldn't be doing

Time and time again I told you
I won't be around when your phone stops ringing

And I can't fight
The past blinds me
And I won't mess with your woman
So don't you mess around with me

I told you once or twice before but you won't listen
I tried my best but you do not seem to be hearing

I'm not surprised that we all keep telling lies
So let's just fight - I am resigned

Time and time again I told you
I won't be around when your phone stops ringing

And I can't fight
The past blinds me
And I won't mess with your woman
So don't you mess around with me

And I can't fight
The past blinds me
And I won't mess with your woman
So don't you mess around with me

And I can't fight
The past blinds me
And I won't mess with your woman
So don't you mess around with me

And I can't fight
The past blinds me
And I won't mess with your woman
So don't you mess around with me

And I can't fight (Will you ride it out?)
The past blinds me (Will you ride it out?)
And I won't mess with your woman (Will you ride it out?)
So don't you mess around with me (Will you ride it out?)

And I... (Will you ride it out?)
And I... (Will you ride it out?)
And I... (Will you ride it out?)
And I... (Will you ride it out?)
And I... (Will you ride it out?)
And I... (Will you ride it out?)
And I... (Will you ride it out?)

I'm just mad about my old school shirt
Lapels they are embossed
With the name of all the kids in that old city school
Now, all those kids are lost
Them kids are lost, they are lost

I'm just mad about that old radio
The tunes that it used to play
How come you ain't singing now?
Well, did our voices get away?
Well, did they get away, get away?

I'll be shooting holes in the sky
To make it rain, make it the same
Shooting holes in the sky
Once again

I'm just mad about all those people
Who came but did not stay
They sit so quietly in my memories
Gone but not unmade

Shooting holes in the sky
To make it rain, make it the same
Shooting holes in the sky
Once again

Shooting holes in the sky
To make it rain, make it the same
Shooting holes in the sky
Once again

Caught in a headlock
I want it the same
Caught in a headlock
I want it to be the same
Caught in a headlock
I want it to be the same
Caught in a headlock

I couldn't tell
The weight of the world
was on your shoulders
Couldn't tell you were unhappy,
you were unwell
I go along like nothing is wrong
no need to worry
Too late to feel sorrow
upon borrowed time
Then now there's no answers
no easy way out
take it all if you want
take it all if you want

if you know how to run
Sweet Virginia, you should run
if you know how to play
Sweet Virginia, you should play
if you know how to say
Sweet Virginia, you should say
if you know how to be
be without me, you should be
you should be

I couldn't see
it seems I don't learn or get the message
don't know you you carry it all by yourself
How can it be
it doesn't belong, it's so not funny
this vintage of violence again on parade
and now there's no wonder
no shelter from shame
be alone if you want
be alone if you want

if you know how to run
Sweet Virginia, you should run
if you know how to play
Sweet Virginia, you should play
if you know how to say
Sweet Virginia, you should say
if you know how to be
be without me, you should be

She had perfect eyes
That's all she had
And in the these perfect skies
Makes you glad

She has alibis
And they're not bad
And in these perfect skies
Makes you sad

Makes you sad
Makes you sad
Makes you sad
Makes you sad

She had perfect eyes
That's all she had
And in the these perfect skies
Makes you glad

We're all here on faith
The air tastes bad
Far from perfect skies Is all you had

Is all you had
Makes you sad
Makes you sad
Makes you sad

I don't want no grace
Just a smile
Just a smile

Put me in my place
With a smile
Just a smile

I don't want no grace
Just a smile
Just a smile

I don't want no grace
Just a smile
Make you glad
Make you glad
Make you glad

We'll return to the ocean
Ride the tide again
Taste the water, jump right in
And try to swim

So ping one down
Let it sink
Sink on down
Like heavy metal

We should take off the lotion
Let the sun shine in
Admire the holes with shaded eyes
And fry again

And ping one down
Let it sink
Sink on down
Like heavy metal

Ping one down
Let it sink
Don't ponce around
Like poor old men

Colour clean
This sterile scene
Move as we please
No use in complaining

Purify now
Saints alive
We're all deprived
Be careful what you're saying

We've been on a safari
Just collecting skin
Head to toe in camouflage
But high again

So ping one down
And let it sink
Sink on down
Like heavy metal

Colour clean
This sterile scene
Move as we please
No use in complaining

Purify now
Saints alive
We're all deprived
Be careful what you're saying

Careful what you're saying

Feed fear
You sit and watch it grow
Are you afraid of being alone?

Eyes a cold sweat
And shivers to your bones
Don't let a rotten seed be sowed

All the world would like to play with you
You hide inside yourself the whole day through
You know it's true

Your outside, so full of hollow fear
In truth it's oh-so fresh and clear
Oh darling, you can leave the lies
But now you must realise

All the world would like to play with you
You hide inside yourself the whole day through
So brave the world outside your windowsill
You know you will

And if your life was on the line
Tell me, tell me how would you feel?
If your life was on the line
Tell me, would there be nothing left to feel?
Tell me, there is nothing left to...

All the world would like to play with you
You hide inside yourself the whole day through
So brave the world outside your windowsill

[No lyrics]

You can write your tunes with rhythm and blues as your alibi
You can sell your soul and lay the blame on the passers-by
You shake your body on the TV screen
It seems to me, you'd try anything twice
And swing it out and use it as your aphrodisiac
You can give it to me, to me
Plain to see that I'll give it you back
You let it flow, let it go, there's nothing to it
Anyone can try anything twice, try anything twice

Chasing after stories that have already been told
Cannot look old Son House in the eyes
I know where you carry such a fragile load
But I've got yours, and you've got mine
It's a rhythm and blues alibi



La la la la la la la la la la laaa..
You can take a trip through your juke joint smoke-filled paradise
You can give it your all, 'cause you are walking a fine, fine line, la
You shake your booty on the TV screen
Seems to me, you'd try anything twice
You'd try anything twice
Well let me hear you now..

Chasing after stories that have already been told,
Couldn't I look old sunhouse in the eyes,
I know where you carry such a fragile load,
And I've got yours, you've got mine
It's a rhythm and blues alibi
La la la la la etc.

There's a place out near the Eighties
South of the border, west of the sun
And if we send out all the A-team
Silhouettes will creep out of the dark

There's a place out in the Nineties
North of the border, east of the light
We can send out all the B-team
Silhouettes will creep out every time

In a time before the Forties
North of the border, south of the sun
Well, we can send out anybody
Silhouettes will creep out of the dark

In a time after the Fifties
South of the border, east of the light
We can send out everybody
Silhouettes will creep out every time

Come all you faithful and rise
Things aren't what they might seem
With all the makeshift lies
You'll never come back clean
You'll never come out clean

Come all you faithful and rise
Things aren't what they might seem
With all the makeshift lies
You'll never come out clean

Come all you faithful and rise
Things aren't what they might seem
With all the makeshift lies
You'll never come back clean
You'll never come out

And silhouettes will creep out of the dark

Hello

Feel much better on hashish or ephedrine
Feel much better when I'm smoking a lot
Feel much better on acid or mescaline
Feel much better though somebody's not

In their kitchens and ballrooms
And boardrooms with chairs
They'd have to pile them to the ceiling
For someone to get high

And everybody wants to know
Everybody singing
If you really need to know
Everybody cry
Everybody wants to know
Everybody singing why
Lord, try and sober this old tribe

Oh, goodbye

Feel much better on meths or on Windolene
Feel much better when I've had my line
Feel much better on amyl or ketamine
Feel much better though somebody's not

When they're hepped up and paranoid
With lithium lights
They'll have to drop an ebenezer
To get a first class flight

Now, everybody wants to know
Everybody singing
If you really need to know
Everybody cry
Everybody wants to know
Everybody singing why
Lord, try and sober this old tribe

La da da da..
Oh, here we go again

Feel much better on Night Nurse, amphetamine
Prozac is better, Viagra I got
Feel much better, paracetamol and codeine
Feel much better on heat, I get hot

With wine gums and diesel
Pot noodle or fries
I'd rather die from emphysema
Than learn to just get by

And everybody wants to know
Everybody singing
If you really need to know
Everybody cry
Everybody wants to know
Everybody singing why
Lord, try to stay sober in this tribe

So you don't care about the beautiful people
But you'll try one just the same
Yeah I know you can love it or leave it
You're just playing a game...
Again

Oh you don't care about the famously stupid
But you'll live it for a while
Oh I know you're only doing that irony thing
When you smile but don't smile...

You don't care about what anyone else is
Don't care what they do or they say
You live your own life in your own time
And in your own dead indifferent way

Yeah... in your own time...

No you don't care about the fabulous in things
But you'll be one just in case
Yeah I know you can take it or leave it
You're just having a taste...

Don't give a fuck about what anyone else is
Don't give a fuck what they do or they say
Yeah you are as you feel in your own time
And in your own dead indifferent way
And you will swear on any life but your own
That you're happy! happy how it all is...
At least it's the way that you think I should think
That you think about any of this

About any of this... yeah... and it's so much more than you ever need...

And you will swear on any lie but your own
That you're happy! happy how it all is...
At least it's the way that you think I should think
That you think about any of this...

You're so... happy yeah!
You're so... happy yeah!
You're so... happy yeah!
You're so... happy yeah!

He sees a little boweevil, sees him movin' in the, Lordie, yeah
Well you can plant your cotton but you won't get a half a bale, mama, yeah
Bo weevil, bo weevil, where's your native home, mama, yeah?
Bo weevil, bo weevil, where's your native home, mama, yeah?

The next time I seen him, Lord, he had his family there, mama, yeah
He sucks all your blossom and leaves your hedges square, mama, yeah
Bo weevil, bo weevil, won't you treat me fair, mama, yeah?
Bo weevil, bo weevil, got a one way ticket there, mama, yeah

Goin' down next year, gonna give Karachi hell, mama, yeah
Well you can cage them all in but his friends are everywhere, lordy, yeah
Keep movin', keep movin', boweevil is already there, mama, yeah
Next time he's here rent a package in Leicester Square, mama, yeah

Join me in good living and where has it been goin', mama, yeah
Start wheezing, stop breathing and where's this powder from, mama, yeah
Go faster, go faster, man'll beat him a hundred fold, mama, yeah

Be the only one to know and be my alibi
Put on all the things you wore and wear them out
We'll collide before you know and I apologize
For shutting up and leaving slow when I'm around

I'll be right in front of you when I've got it all figured out
To be the only one who knows what to do when there ain't no doubt

And all this time will feel like seconds now
And all this time will feel like moments now

So keep the light on, watch them all rush round
And through it all keep smiling
Do whatever you may decide on
And any place or any time
Through it all you're shining
Just trying to make it right
I won't fight

And all this time will feel like moments now

I've been caught in a trap I set for myself
I don't want to be here when you could be somewhere else
So why'd I sit on my hands like a book on a shelf
Where only dust is falling?
Everyone 'round here lives in silence

If I had something to say I'd say what I mean
How'd you lose all your words? I swear it's obscene, I curse
How'd you look at yourself as the mirror turns green?
Yeah, only the fools ignore us
Everyone 'round here lives in silence

I could wait all my life for someone to think
I can't open your eyes but I can make you blink at me
So please don't try to be nice, don't need your advice
Please leave me to die of boredom
Everyone 'round here lives in silence

Silence
They wait for the end
Silence
They bow and they bend
Silence
Their homes they defend

(Gonna let it down, gonna let it down,
I'm gonna let it down [Repeats through song])

Pussyfootin'
Pussyfootin' around
Just got me down, yeah

Pussyfootin'
Pussyfootin' around
Has just got me down
Because I don't care what's made you frown
I'm just tired of my pussyfootin' around

Pussyfootin'
Pussyfootin' around
Has just got me down, yeah

Pussyfootin'
Pussyfootin' around
Just got me down
Because I don't care what's made you frown
I'm just tired of my pussyfootin' around

She has gone, gone to the stratosphere
She has gone, gone far away from here
She has gone, but it ain't right
Yeah, it's coming alive

Pussyfootin'
Pussyfootin' around
Just got me down
'Cause I don't care what's made you frown

Harry's on the run, he has got good reason
Since he bought a gun, he'll never sleep again
The widow sleeps alone, she never shuts her window
Mandy knows what's fun, she just don't know what's right

Come on, step inside
(Step inside, step inside, step inside, put your best foot forward)
Come on, step inside, don't walk on by
Step inside
(Step inside, step inside, step inside, but you better be ready to hide)
Come on, step inside
(Put your best foot first, but you better be ready to hide)

Sequins on his shirt, Stevie's up for dancing
Always been a flirt, Carol steps in line
History to the bone, memory to the marrow
An old and weary man treads a troubled road

Come on, step inside
(Step inside, step inside, step inside, put your best foot forward)
Come on, step inside, don't walk on by
Step inside
(Step inside, step inside, step inside, 'cause you're gonna be ready to hide)
Come on, step inside
(Put your best foot first, 'cause you better be ready to hide)

Standin' in the sun, patrolling, cold Maria
A Hare Krishna drum sounds distantly in time
The blood comes off like grime in the wash-hand basin
Just another crime, no reason without rhyme

Step inside
(Step inside, step inside, step inside, put your best foot forward)
Come on, step inside, don't walk on by
Step inside
(Step inside, step inside, step inside, 'cause you better be ready to hide)
Come on, step inside, don't walk on by
Step inside
(Step inside, step inside, step inside, but you better come ready to hide)
Come on, step inside
Step inside
(Step inside, step inside, step inside)
(Put your best foot first, 'cause you better be ready to hide)

Well, hey, how's tricks man?
Think I've seen you before
Blank blank to that

You looked a lot older
You been working out
What's wrong with that?

Well he came back and he
Came a-marching in
Shot shot to that

You found a good reason
Well, do it for the money
What's wrong with that?

Control your bad side
Into battle we go down
Hold the line
You'll survive
Dead wrong

So please stop talking and
Start puckering up
My ears are blank

It's a special occasion
So do it for the money
Can't go wrong with that

Explode or capsize
But find my going
If you're down
Toe the line
You'll survive

[No lyrics]

A-one, two, three, what you tanglin' with me for?
Believe me, 'cause baby I won't lie
A-five, six, seven, only girls go to heaven
If you leave me, then baby I won't die

'Cause if they say that you're wrong
Don't cry, you're making it worse
And if they say that you're wrong
Don't cry

A-one, two, three, stop stranglin' me
I'll keep breathing, no matter how hard you try
A-seven, eight, nine, you'll never take me alive
You could steal me but, babe, you could not buy me

'Cause if they say that you're wrong
Don't cry, you're making it worse
And if they say that you're wrong
Don't cry

Well if they say that you're wrong
Don't cry, you're making it worse
And if they say that you're wrong
Don't cry

And if they say that you're wrong
Don't cry, you're making it worse
And if they say that you're wrong

I wear the same shoes as anyone
I get the same blues as everyone
So try and call me, I'm immobile man, yes I am

Got a haircut, got a silver tooth, gonna get myself arrested
Got some friends in my BMW, tryin' to get themselves arrested

I suck the same lines as anyone
I do the same time as anyone
Don't try and call me, I'm immobile man, yes I am

Got a haircut, got a silver tooth, gonna get myself arrested
Got some friends in my BMW, tryin' to get themselves arrested

He only grows for guys he knows and me
He only grows for guys he knows and me

Well alright

Don't try and call me I'm immobile man
Don't try and call me I'm immobile man, yes I am

Got a haircut, got a silver tooth, gonna get myself arrested
Got some friends in my BMW, tryin' to get themselves arrested

Do you ever stop and wonder
Where you'd be without her?

You listened, you listened, you listened
To what she said to you

The sound of sounds ain't lightning

The whisper, the promise, the solace
Of where you're lead to
Yeah

The sound of sounds ain't lightning
Yeah, yeah

The sound of sounds ain't lightning

Have you forgotten who you are?
(Have you forgotten who you are?)
Have you forgotten who you are?
(Have you forgotten who you are?)

Could you ever stop and wonder
Could you live without her?

The sound of sounds ain't lightning
Yeah, yeah

The sound of sounds ain't lightning
Yeah

The sound of sounds ain't lightning
Yeah, yeah
(The sound of sounds ain't lightning)

Baby, put your hand up
You wanna be with someone you can't afford to be
Lay your head with me

I'm too lazy to put my hand up
I wanna be somewhere I can't afford to stay, no
Let me drive you away

Go, because lately, we're going through a run of bad luck
She's going crazy, she only thinks the worst about us
I said please, please, please chill out
Ain't exactly easy for me
Or in that case for you
Lay your head with me

Lately, I put my hand up
I had to do something I couldn't afford to do
But it's no longer up to you

It would be lazy, put your hand up
You wanna be somewhere you can't afford to stay now
Let me drive you away

Oh, because lately, been going through a run of bad luck
She's going crazy, she only thinks the worst about us
I said please, please, please chill out
Ain't exactly easy for me
Or in that case for you

When I look back now things have changed
With patience, thought and restraint
I never thought it would go
Lay your head with me
Lay your head with me

Ooh, because lately, been going through a run of bad luck
She's going crazy, she only thinks the worst about us
I said please, please, please chill out
It ain't exactly easy for me
Or in that case for you

When I look back now things have changed
With patience, thought and restraint
I never thought it would go
Lay your head with me
Lay your head with me
Lay your head with me

You went there until you crash here
Then woken up to wonder where the night went
Keep breathing it'll come back again
Tonight will be different
We will all be saved

My name's Jimmy, I'm an alcoholic
And I have been for 33 years or more
So kill me, I will die without it
It's like this wherever I go

So we crashed down in BB's
Keep quiet because the question is elaborate
You need a lawyer, a doctor, a drink
To keep surviving
Keep me firing

My name's Jimmy, I'm an alcoholic
And I have been for 33 years or more
So kill me, I will die without it
It's like this wherever I go

I don't feel like going out
I don't feel like going out
Feel like going out

I don't feel like going out
I don't feel like going out
Feel like going out
Feel like going out

My name's Jimmy, I'm an alcoholic
And I have been for 33 years or more
So kill me, I will die without it
It's like this wherever I go

My name's Jimmy, I'm an alcoholic
And I have been for 33 years or more
So kill me, I will die without it
It's like this wherever I go

Do you feel like going out?
Do you feel like going out?
Do you feel like going out?
Do you feel like going out?
Do you feel like going out?
Do you feel like going out?
