Lyrically Speaking - 2/11/14
Posted: Tue Feb 11, 2014 7:33 am
You know this winter has been bad when everyone is excited that it's supposed to get up into the 40's later this week. Woohoo, break out the shorts and tanning butter. Live, from another freezing morning of zero degree weather, here is this week's edition of Tuesday Wordplay...
1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...
1. If I could stick a knife in my heart
Suicide right on stage
Would it be enough for your teenage lust
Would it help to ease the pain?
2. I don't know what it is that makes me love you so.
I only know I never wanna let you go
'cos you started something, can't you see.
Ever since we met you've had a hold on me.
3. I want you to love me, like I'm a hot guy
Keep thinkin' of me, doin' what you like
So boy forget about the world cuz it's gon' be me and you tonight
I wanna make your bed for ya, then I'mma make you swallow your pride
4. Please, baby, can't you see, I'm trying to explain
I've been here before, and I'm locking the door
And i'm not going back again
5. Now in the unemployment lines
You can spend your life readin' signs
Waitin' for your interview
They can shoot the whole day for you, yeah
6. We lied about each others drinkin
We lived without each other thinkin'
What anyone would do
Without me and you
7. And my momma swore
That she would never let herself forget.
And that was the day that I promised
I'd never sing of love if it does not exist.
8. Never found a compromise
Collected lovers like butterflies
Illusions of that grand first prize
are slowly wearing thin
9. Everytime I'm tellin' secrets
I remember how it used to be
And I realized how much I miss you
And I realize how it feels to be free
10. You really know me, that's all I need to know.
Maybe I'm an open book because I know you're mine,
But you won't need to read between the lines.
11. You can live without the aggravation
Ya gotta wanna win - ya gotta wanna win
You keep lookin' back in desperation
Over and over and over again
12. You probably don't want to hear advice from someone else
But I wouldn't be telling you if I hadn't been there myself
