Confetti Lyrics
5 ContributorsConfetti LyricsHe kinda shoulda sorta woulda loved her if he could've
The story's getting closer to the end
He kinda shoulda sorta woulda loved her if he could've
He'd rather be alone than pretend
She just wanted him to love her but he didn't
He took to the woods and wandered in it
Walked along and on until they couldn't
Stole himself to tell her that he wouldn't
He kinda shoulda sorta woulda loved her if he could've
The story's getting closer to the end
He kinda shoulda sorta woulda loved her if he could've
He'd rather be alone than pretend
She just wanted him to love her but he didn't
He took to the woods and wandered in it
Walked along and on till his legs couldn't
Stole her voice to tell her that he wouldn't
He kinda shoulda sorta woulda loved her if he could've
The story's getting closer to the end
He kinda shoulda sorta woulda loved her if he could've
He'd rather be alone than pretend
He kinda shoulda sorta woulda loved her if he could've
The story's getting closer to the end
He kinda shoulda sorta woulda loved her if he could've
He'd rather be alone than pretend
It’s a Shame About Ray Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've never been too good with names
The cellar door was open, I could never stay away
I know it's probably not my place
It's either or, I'm hoping for a simple way to say
[Chorus]
It's a shame about Ray
In the stone, under the dust
His name is still engraved
Some things need to go away
It's a shame about Ray
[Verse 2]
If I make it through today
I'll know tomorrow not to leave my feelings out on display
I'll put the cobwebs back in place
I've never been too good with names
But I remember faces
[Chorus]
It's a shame about Ray
In the stone, under the dust
His name is still engraved
Some things need to go away
It's a shame about Ray
Rudderless Lyrics
5 ContributorsRudderless LyricsWaiting for some thin' to break
Left my heart out to bake
Nothing there in my glass
Wasn't air meant to last
Hope in my past
Hope in my past
Hope in my past
All the way down to the lake
(Found the lake was wet)
How much more could I take
(Better yet)
Walked back home to my place
(Tired of getting high)
Guess I don't wanna die
Hope in my past
Hope in my past
Hope in my past
Hope in my past
Hope in my past
Hope in my past
Waiting for some thin' to break
Left my heart out to bake
Slipped my mind that I could use my brain
I'll stay up all night and crash on the plane
Ship without a rudder's like a ship without a rudder's like a
Ship without a rudder
Ship without a rudder's like a ship without a rudder's like a
Ship without a rudder's like a ship without a rudder's like a ship without a
Rudder's like a ship without a rudder's like a ship without a rudder
Bit Part Lyrics
5 ContributorsBit Part LyricsI want a bit part in your life
A walk-on would be fine
I just want a bit part in your life
(A bit part in your life)
I want a bit part in your life
Rehearsing all the time
I just want a bit part in your life
(A bit part in your life)
Little more than a cameo
Nothing traumatic when I go
I want a bit part in your life
A walk-on would be fine
I just want a bit part in your life
(A bit part in your life)
I want a bit part in your life
Rehearsing all the time
I just want a bit part in your life
(A bit part in your life)
Litle more than a stand-in
I won't need reprimanding
Alison’s Starting to Happen Lyrics
4 ContributorsAlison’s Starting to Happen LyricsShe'd shake it up, was hard to make out
Now it's plain to see
I couldn't cook to save myself
Found my life a recipe
I never looked at her this way before
But now she's all I see...
Alison's starting to happen
Alison's starting to happen
Alison's starting to happen to me
It's so mesmerizing
Can't describe it
All that inside, hey
No one's heard her last name, I ain't asked
So, who am I to blame?
An earthquakes started forming underneath my feet today...
Alison's starting to happen
Alison's starting to happen
Alison's starting to happen to me
Oh, this world is topsy-turvy
And it is mine to eat
She's the pebble in my mouth and underneath my feet
She's the puzzle piece behind the couch, made the sky complete
Alison's starting to happen
Alison's starting to happen
Alison's starting to happen
Alison's starting to happen
Alison's getting her tit pierced
Alison's growing a mohawk
Alison's starting to happen to me
Hannah & Gabi Lyrics
2 ContributorsHannah & Gabi LyricsGot me watching your eyes watching things go by outside
Out the window of a train
Easy sipping them just seeing it fly left to right
Pour the milk and Ill say when
Im out wandering around
Youre but one thing Ive found
I dont mean to bring you down
Im out wandering around
Kinda hoped you wouldn't blame me
I can't wake up every day and find the same me
You can scream but Ill just dream how you might disappear
All I know is its never clear
I can't hold you near
You just are not here
Though it wasn't hard or far
I walked you to your car
Oh....
Ceiling Fan in My Spoon Lyrics
4 ContributorsCeiling Fan in My Spoon LyricsStarted out today jello in the sand
Went out of my way not to understand
Walked into a tree don't you look at me
See I'm not myself phoney mystery
Sore afraid
That's my tune
Ceiling fan in my spoon
Clothed in iron there's no denyin'
When you feel like a bent fork tine
Feelin' like a bent fork tine
Clothed in iron there's no denyin'
Sore afraid
That's my tune
Ceiling fan in my spoon
Started out today jello in the sand
Went out of my way not to understand
Walked into a tree don't you look at me
See I'm not myself phoney mystery
Sore afraid
That's my tune
Ceiling fan in my spoon
In my spoon...
Frank Mills Lyrics
[Intro]
Right?
Go for it
[Verse 1]
I met a boy called Frank Mills
On September 12th right here, in front of the Waverly
But unfortunately I lost his address
[Verse 2]
He was last seen with his friend, a drummer
He resembles George Harrison of the Beatles
But he wears his hair tied in a small bow at the back
[Bridge]
I love him
But it embarrasses me to walk down the street with him
He lives in Brooklyn somewhere
And he wears his white crash helmet
He has golden chains on his leather jacket
And on the back are written the names
"Mary" and "Mom" and "Hell's Angels"
[Verse 3]
I would gratefully appreciate it
If you see him, tell him
I'm in the park with my girlfriend, and please
[Verse 4]
Tell him Angela and I
Don't want the two dollars back
Just him
