by Josh Belville

1.
i never said i was a passionate man i keep my feelings in the palm of my hand i spit out insults at the drop of a hat not to your face though; behind your back and i keep wasting my time getting drunk and getting stoned i should be spending more time getting back what i once owned i never said i couldn't do anything i only said i didn't want to do anything except sit here and put some brown in my veins white in my nose, bass in my mains chorus
2.
let's stop talking about these goddamn hypothetical girls that won't get out of your head you know it's not the end of the world you gotta think about the future (not every girl is out to get you) don't you dwell upon the past (you want something that will last?) you gotta think about the future (rip out those memories like sutures) you gotta think about it fast you gotta think about it please don't regret what you've done just settle on a brand new goal you think you're such a nice guy but really you're an asshole chorus inst chorus

Ruby Lips 03:22
what can i do? what can i say? i'm pulling closer to push you away and if i don't gotta dance, i don't gotta smile this won't take me any time at all and don't you dance pretty baby don't you shake those hips don't you kiss me with those ruby lips you're in the car and i'm outside if i wanna take you home i can't decide i'm pacing back and forth, i got a path in the dirt i can't tell if i want to hurt chorus every boy on the scene has got your eyes and i've got two hands on both your thighs now the bass is a-thumping and the guitar strums and i can feel your body hum chorus
4.
baby let's keep on walking maybe we'll find our way home you don't know cause i didn't tell ya, but baby i love to roam my two feet they get antsy constantly making me go and when they start i just can't stop cause baby i love to roam hey pretty baby whatcha doing tonight? take a walk with me in the pale moonlight when we're holding hands man it's outta sight we won't stop until it feels right
5.
Sellout 02:51
i got a hole in my heart so big everybody thinks it's an intentional dig but i swear it's just the part of my heart that fell out when i forgot the words and became a sellout everybody beware, cause i'm coming to your town i got a setlist and bottle of crown i'm gonna drink one and play another and if i play my game right i'll sleep with your mother chorus now my pants are too tight and my tongue is still wagging i'm getting kinda sweaty from the baggage i'm dragging your town smells funny and your drinks are weak i hope you brought some shoes for those dancing feet chorus all you ladies sit back and watch me get freaky even though i'm getting old and my bones are creaky i can still bust a move on the dance floor baby and if you wanna tangle all you gotta say is maybe chorus x2

"one of these days" she said "i'm gonna find you wandering and i won't feel compelled to bring you back home" and then she kissed my face in that ridge between my eyebrows and went back to reading that shitty old book and i couldn't sleep at all that night had the most terrifying dreams when the morning came i felt like brittle leaves my coffee pot broke and i stepped on a piece of caffeine glass and she knelt down in the blood and taped up my foot somehow we knew despite our awkward silences that together was better than being apart
