All You Get Tonight

I can still taste your kiss on my lips
It's a taste I can't place
Maybe it's cinnamon
Or just a touch of shame
It's on the tip of my tongue and so were you
I never knew what you could do
When we're alone, you're insatiable
and I'm a sucker for a hungry girl
I can still smell your breath on my breath
Will somebody notice?
Maybe I'm paranoid, or maybe I'm not
Was it the look in your eyes?
The bows in your hair?
Cuz something that night gave me such a scare
and I'm afraid to see you now,
You might wanna talk and I don't know how
Chorus
Cuz we talked for hours and we watched a movie
and I cracked a joke and you cracked a smile
and when it was over, we sat there in silence
I said I should go but then I stayed awhile
and now I'm exhausted avoiding your glances
as if I would fall in love on sight
and I still remember the way that you said stay
and I said I'm sorry, but this is all you get tonight
I can still see the look on your face
When you pounced me in my car
well two weeks had passed
and you said you'd waited long enough
but i pulled away and you left the car
I never thought it would go this far
and I'm afraid to see you now
It's six months later, there's still that look in your eye
Chorus

Too Far
02:14

She says despite all evidence to the contrary
When we're alone, he's so sweet and caring
Can't you see the way he touches me?
It's when he does that I know, I know he loves me
Yeah, I know he loves me
So sorry to tell you your thinking's all wrong
Built from shit you glean from all those stupid love songs
You're a hopeless romantic, short-sighted, naive
She spits out every name on her tongue and tells me to leave
Yeah, she tells me to leave
Yeah, she tells me to leave
How didn't she melt in my cynicism
My protective well meaning pessimism
Once the tears dry up and the anger scars
We both come to realize we probably won't get too far
No, we probably won't get too far (x4)
1,2,3,4
No, we probably won't get too far
No, we probably won't get too far

Drive
04:33
|

|
The road is long,
But I still see her in my eyes
I'm out of here
and it's time to say goodbye
Nothing more
Any more I think she'll cry
I'm all alone
and all that I can do is drive
Chorus:
I chose to let her into my life
I should have known the time was not right
We had a short time in the spotlight
But now it's gone and it's dark and I've got no headlights
So I drive around in circles
But maybe four laps can make a mile
I'm driving straight around in circles
I'm on my own, and baby I'm going out on a drive
It's been a while
But she's still in my rear-view mirror
A hundred miles
I could pretend that she's still here
But what's the point?
The way I feel is kind of queer
I'm moving on
No matter where I choose to steer
Chorus

Elizabeth

1,2,3,4
Elizabeth, Take me home tonight
Elizabeth, Take me home tonight
Cuz you know I adore you
If you'd open the door you'd make my night
Look at you under that streetlight
Look at you under that streetlight
Cuz you know I adore you
If you'd open the door you'd make my night
Let me walk you to your door
It's only on the second floor, I can make it
Don't go up those stairs
Don't go up those stairs
You can't run from the sun
It's coming up
1,2,3,4
Elizabeth, take me home tonight
Elizabeth, take me home tonight
Cuz you know I adore you
If you'd open the door you'd make my night
Oh god

Kissing Scars
02:25
|
|||
|
We're getting to rebellious
To play it isn't hard
This machine kills fascists
Isn't written on this guitar
There's no energy or heresy
but I say with full sincerity
That I kiss your scars
Yeah, I kiss your scars
And I don't wear no crown of thorns
I don't preach too much
This broken crucifix
is what I use for a crutch
There's no sacrifice
But hope tonight it will suffice
Want me to say
That I kiss your scars
Yeah, I kiss your scars
And I ain't no virtuoso
I won't get too far
and I have no direction
Name in lights ain't in the cards
and I can't sing
So I will scream
That I want you to know one thing
That I kiss your scars
Yeah, I kiss your scars
Yeah, I kiss your scars
Yeah, I kiss your scars
Yeah I kiss your I kiss your,
I kiss your I kiss I kiss your scars

Good Time Grill
02:34
|
|||
|
She wants to go out
But knows she can’t
She looks in the mirror
and tells herself
I’m not alright
I don’t feel alright
Because she works the night
Through the dawn and day
She takes down the orders
And barely gets paid
She works overtime
And is never late
To everyone
She has to say
Come to the good time grill
You can sit wherever
Burgers on special
Bar patrons at noon
Kill some time
You can pay whenever
Come back again
We hope to see you soon
We hope to see you soon
We hope to see you soon
Waiting alone
For someone to call
Frustration, vexation,
She can’t take it anymore
She’s not alright
She don't feel alright
She says she’s sick and tired
Of living this way
She buses the tables
and she strokes the blades
It’s been six months
And she hasn't been laid
She fakes a smile
And starts to say
Come to the good time grill
You can sit wherever
Burgers on special
Bar patrons at noon
Kill some time
And kill your problems
Drown your sorrows
In a bucket of booze
A bucket of booze
A bucket of booze
You know this sucks
But that’s how it is
She’s resigned to this life
Because she can’t quit
The tears seep through her eyes
She kind of likes it
So she starts to bitch
And throw a fit
Come to the good time grill
It’s a fucking blast
If you want a refill
You can kiss my ass
The service is slow
But the booze works fast
Just watch where you step
Because there’s broken glass
On the floor
I can't take anymore
At the good time grill
The good time grill
The good time grill
The good time grill

Park the Car

Going out with my friends tonight
I'm really holding out for a good time
But who's that there?
She's a friend of a friend of mine
With long blonde hair
Try to start a conversation
But I don't think she wants to talk
She takes my hand
and says she likes the way I walk
and she's seen my band
we're okay for rock and roll and
Chorus
Oh no, what's this?
You're leaning in for a kiss
Well I hardly know you miss
But I can't pass up a chance like this
So hop in the back seat
My friend can drive
and I'll drive you wild
Let's park the car awhile
Let's park the car awhile
Classic rock on the radio
I bet you don't know who plays this song
But I don't care
Cuz I've been waiting far too long
and you're right here
Straddling me with no seat-belt on and
Chorus
Let's park the car awhile
Let's park the car awhile
Well I know you want it baby! Oh!

I saw you waiting
At my front porch
Foaming at the mouth
You were just aching
To bust in my door
Itching to call me out
Well hey man what's your problem?
What's your hurry?
What's your game?
I bend myself backwards for you, but you always act the same
Its hurting my head and driving me insane
I try to fix our problems, you just hand me the blame
I had a girlfriend and you had a crush
Cuz she had a crush once too
You couldn't handle it and you made a fuss
Just because she got over you
Hey, well hey man what's your problem?
What's your hurry?
What's your game?
Well I bend myself backwards for you, you always act the same
Its hurting my head and driving me insane
Well I try to fix our problems, you just hand me the blame
Chorus:
I gotta make my mind up
To make time up
For the wasted time
You left behind
Gotta make my mind up
To make time up
For the wasted time
You left behind
Go ahead, you've shown us
Who the bigger man is
You've really outgrown us, little kids
I hope you're doing fine
Hope you're doing fine
Chorus:
Now just get out
Just get out
Just get out
Get out
Get out
Just get out
