Kings Of Leon

First topic message reminder :

Red Morning Light

You know you could've been a wonder
Taking your circus to the sky
You couldn't take it on the tight rope
No you had to take it on the side
You always like it undercover
Tucked in between your dirty sheets
But no one's even done nuttin' to you
In between the hollers and the screams
And I said nah nah hey hey
Another dirty bird ain't giving out a taste
In the black of the night ‘till the red morning light

You got your cozy little corner
All night you're jamming on your feet
Hanging out just like a street sign
And put a twenty dollar trick
I hear you're blowin’ like a feather
And then they rub it in your face
Oh once they've had all their fun hun
You're at the bottom of the cage

And I said nah nah hey hey
Another dirty bird ain't giving out a taste
In the black of the night till the red morning light
And I said nah nah hey hey you're givin' all your cinnamon away
That's not right

Hey hey another dirty bird ain't givin' out a taste
Uh hey keep on givin' away and givin' it away
Hey hey you're givin' all your cinnamon away
Hey hey you're givin' all your cinnamon away

Where Nobody Knows

With hands in the air you look like the girl at the fare with the bubbly eyes.
Stonewashed shoe pulling at a rock but the rock don't compromise,
Come up to me say why are you so skinny and pretty for a boy?
Said thanks for the insults and compliments
You'll never forget my face no more
I can't hardly reach you and I know it's getting harder to be you.
So i'll be dropping you where nobody knows,
City ought to take you,
It would take a little second to break you
So I'll be dropping you where nobody knows,
I'll be dropping you where nobody knows.
Looking pretty keen sitting on a swing,
That don't mean a thing at all,
Heals on my feet,
Are barkin like a pack of dogs,
Siccin' on a coon in a stall.
Take it for your word, take it for a ride,
Take it for the evening dead or alive,
Warming up the car packing as the pilots play.
I can't hardly reach you and I know it's getting harder to be you,
So I'll be dropping you where nobody knows,
City ought to take you,
It would take a little second to break you,
So I'll be dropping you where nobody knows,
I'll be dropping you where nobody knows - Jessica
Head like a stone,
Stoned like a rock,
Clogging up your nose again,
Papa's a searching,
Devil is a knocking,
Chills runnin' up my skin,
Here goes now.

Head To Toe

Oh! He's such a sucker from her head to her toes
Oh! He's such a sucker from her head to her toes
Causation, Mississippi related, he's searching for the softball diamond

Prancing like a badass who never seen a church house,
Another jolly face in the choir

He's sticking on and kissing his mouth
Oh! He's such a sucker from her head to her toes
Oh! He's such a sucker from her head to her toes

Screaming at the cousin that never gets no loving
The hairy monkeys covered tonight
Falling over tables, a black eye with no way home
And pouting underneath the street lights

He's sticking on and kissing his mouth
Oh! He's such a sucker from her head to her toes
Oh! He's such a sucker from her head to her toes
And no one seems to like it out loud
Oh! He's such a sucker from her head to her toes
Oh! He's such a sucker from her head to her toes

Knocked Up

I don’t care what nobody says we’re gonna have a baby
Taking off in a Coup deVille she’s buckled up on navy
She don’t care what her momma says no she’s gonna have my baby
I’m taking all I have to take because taken gonna shape me
People call us renegades because we like living crazy
We like taking on the town because people are getting lazy
I don’t care what nobody says no I’m going to be her lover
Always mad and usually drunk but I love her like no other
And the doctor seems to say he don’t know where we’re gonna go
I’m a ghost and I don’t think I quite know where we’re gonna go
People call us renegades because we like living crazy
We like taking on the town because people are getting lazy
I don’t care what nobody says no I’m going to be her lover
Always mad and usually drunk but I love her like no other
And her daddy seems to say he don’t know where we’re gonna go
I’m a ghost and I don’t think I quite know where we’re gonna go

Charmer

Wow! She’s such a charmer oh no
Wow! She’s such a charmer oh no
Why she’s always looking at me?
Why she’s always looking at me?
Wow! She’s such a charmer oh no, oh no
Wow! She stole my karma oh no
Sold it to the farmer oh no
Why she’s always looking at me?
Why she’s always looking at me?
Wow! She’s such a charmer oh no, oh no
Born in West Virginia oh no
Married to the preacher oh no
Why she’s always looking at me
Why she’s always looking at me
Wow! She’s such a charmer oh no, oh no

On Call

She said call me now baby and I’d come a running
She said call me now baby and I’d come a running
If you call me now baby I’d come a running
I’m on call to be there
One and all to be there
And when I fall to pieces
Lord you know I’ll be there waiting
I’m gonna borawl so be there
One for all we’ll be there
And when they fall to pieces
Lord you known I’ll be there laughing
I’d come a running

McFearless

Strain living with a name they get the best of me
But I’m no walker away
I DON’T complain I got much to gain they so they keep testing me
And I keep feeding their face
They could go off and hit the road and what would I care
Hell I ain’t going nowhere
I got the reigns and courage I was made of
And they’ve got fake love
So I know I must show it’s my show
I must go with my soul
Not my hand where I stand
It’s my role, it’s my soul
Pearls and necklaces and girls and all the pretty things
I ain’t seeking to have
It’s safe to say if I don’t get this out of me
Might quite easily
End up dead or just mad
Cross my t’s and try to dot my i’s
But that’s just blinding me and I ain’t living that way
I roll my sleeves to make a better man of me or I might easily
Just give up on this show
It’s my show
I must go with my soul
Not my hand where I stand
It’s my role, it’s my soul
I must show, it’s my show,
I must go, with my soul,
Not my hand, where I stand,
It’s my role, it’s my soul, it’s my show

Black Thumbnail

My cold cold sailor heart says get on your way
I ain’t too proud to say but that’s how I’m made
I’ll be that person till my dying day
I try so awful hard but I can’t change
From runways to the road I ramble alone
This thumbnail size of heart is as black as coal
Though beauty it still brings me to my knees
Don’t waste a tear on me it’s my disease
Don’t leave no smell on me
Those preppy boys in blue they make fun of us
So we take it to the street because we are an ornery curse
But we’re not here to make your children bleed
We’re here to cover ground with a tumbleweed
Don’t take these boots off me when you think I’m dead
I’ll still be running from the demon in my head
I’ll be that person till my dying day
I try so awful hard but I can’t change

My Party

It’s raining on old yellow and it’s carving a path
So now we’re on our way
It’s taking us on journeys where we wipe away frowns amongst a crowded place
So why you never call me no you never seem to call me
Now that I’m OK
I’ll beat you in the end and every time you turn around here will come the coming of age
Ooh she saw my party
My cocky look emerges when you question my moves
Because you ain’t got no taste
You’re talking about my baby
I could flip you upside down and I could mop this place
So why you never saw me, no you never seen my calling right in front your face
I’ll smoke you in the end and don’t you ever turn around
Because here’s that coming of age

True Love Way

I want in like a substitute
I’ve been working awful hard for you
But you don’t say you just hold your breath
So I can’t touch what I haven’t yet
She’s a cold one and it hurts me so
It’s a dark path and a heck of a toll
She could kill me just like she did before
We’d be so free – Happy alone
Sharing a smile so far from home
Pushing and pulling weight
It’s the hard part but the true love way
Girl you’re wanted like a wanted man
With your smart mouth and your killer hand
We could both share all that I have made
For a young man it’s a heck of a wage
And I feel crazy when I see your face
‘Cause we’d be so free – Happy alone
Sharing a smile so far from home
And we would laugh, laugh till we cried
Making up songs you’re making me lie
People say our babies are walking this town
People say our babies are walking this town
People say our babies are just wondering around
People say our babies are walking

Ragoo

And I want to say here’s to me to go and change the world
And I want to play until they are kicking down the door
And I’ll be alright as long as I ain’t seen as all
And I’m holding tight to that night we had a ball, we had a ball
Here’s to the kids out there smoking in the streets
They’re way too young but I’m way too old to preach
They know it all but they still ain’t seen the truth
Just play my song and I will show it all to you
Either way you caught me whilst a lying
You caught me whilst a lying
You caught me with my pants down
My pawpaw’s slave had to go and fight the war
He beat them all and then he took them all to court
My pawpaw called and he said do you remember me?
Now he’s working awful hard in his factory
We ain’t even been to the ocean
We’ve been running barefoot the streams
We ain’t even been to the ocean

Fans

Homegrown rock to the rhythm and bop to the beat of the radio
You ain’t got the slang but you got the face to play the role and
You can play with me
And all the bros
Try for the courage and try for charity tight clothes
She’s got a hat and all the hat says is asshole
She’ll be bobbing to me
Pretty hairdos and those lipstick kisses blown yeah that’s the right move
Make me feel like I’m the one who moves you
The only one you see
Now take it down and don’t you let those tears quench the thirsty ground
And don’t you be so scared that you can’t make a sound
Make a sound for me
All of London sing
Because England swings and they sure love the tales I bring
Those raining days they ain’t so bad when you’re the king
The king they want to see
The king they want to be

The Runner

Our time as we go
We know our times will change
I talk to Jesus
Jesus he says I’m OK
Pushing and jumping
Jumping the mountain range
Burning up the railroad
Railroad from hell to Maine
Why does she say she’s on her own?
I’ll be pacing on the phone
Taking numbers taken blame
Awful sick and tired of the game
She comes from nothing
Hoping for a trace of fame
She’s got a birthmark
Birthmark the shape of Maine
And it’s cold
And it’s cold
And it’s cold when you’re near
It’s cold when you’re nearing the bottom
Our time as we go
We know our times will change
I’ll talk to Jesus
Jesus everyday

Trunk

What I’ve got – well she wants
A hurt nose a tight knot
And I’ve got one mile to go
On down the road, on down the road
What she’s got – hell I want
And she knows what I’m not
And I’ve got one mile to go
On down the road, on down the road
And she sang, woo..
What she’s got – hell I want
And she knows when I’m not
And I’ve got one mile to go
On down the road, on down the road.

Camaro

She looks so cool in her new Camaro
It’s black as coal and it goes boy it go go goes
I ver my bike next to her Camaro
And when I bite on her smile the she’ll blow and she blows
I’m making eyes through my sharp sunglasses
She’s such a brat now I’m packing her cigarettes
I guess I’ll take off these great sunglasses
And make her look me in the eyes before she’s taken away

Arizona

That taste all I ever needed
All I ever wanted too dumb to surrender
She shakes like the morning railway
Checking me out with someone on her shoulder
The lamp flickers in the bedroom
She must feel as awkward whorehouse Arizona
And I go
Stand up to a giant
Say that I’m a fighter
Too drunk to remember
My face is laying on the pavement
Tasting something awful
I hate when that happens
And she waves
Thinking that it’s sexy
She must be plum crazy
I kind of think I like her
Kind of think I do.

My Third House

How many souls will it take?
How many necks will you break?
I say, gimme the bones away
Gimme that little old shape
I say, hey! I'm sober from a bar
But you don't try me
Showed you my car
But I don't drive

Let me get away
On a holiday
We could, tire the ones we know
Gonna tie right on
I say, hey! I'm sober from a bar
But you don't try me
Showed you my car
But I don't drive

Tell me things we knew
Tell me down my back
We could, live dusty in town
When the sun goes down
I say, hey! I'm sober from a bar
But you don't try me
I showed you my car
But I don't drive

I say, hey! I'm taken it back
Like you don't know
You blow me away
When you don't try.

Woo Hoo

Love The Days
She's gone for the moment
I don't know wich way she was going
Lord, it's been
A long warm November
I know now she acts like her mother
I've been holding on here forever
And I don't know where she's going
But hopefully she knows not to come back now

Kicking the door get on the floor
Went on a woman prowl - woo hoo
Sucking and kiss the night away
When I'm taking back that - woo hoo
Baby you know, that I could just sail away

Gone away, so gone in the moment
Still can't tell which way she was going
Shaping up and growing right on me
Taking my advice like her father
I've been holding on here forever
And I don't know where she's going
But hopefully she knows not to turn around

Kicking the door get on the floor
Went on a woman prowl - woo hoo
Sucking and kiss the night away
When I'm taking back that - woo hoo
Baby you know, that I could just sail away

She's going to prowl when the storm comes
And it'll come, and it'll come, and it'll come
Instead she says, "Can't get none."

Closer

Straned in the spooky town
Stop lights are swaying and the phone lines are down
The floor is crackling cold
She took my heart [I think] she took my soul
With the moon I run far from the carnage of the fiery sun
Driven by the strangle of veins
Showing me no mercy I'd do it again
Open up your eyes you keep on crying baby I'll bleed you dry
The skies they blink at me
I see a storm bubbling up from the sea
And it's coming closer
Your shimi shook my bones
Leaving me strained all in my love on my own
Do you think of me? Where am I now babe where do i sleep?
It feels so good but I am an old
200 years of chasing taking its tool
And it's coming closer.

Crawl

Your fault my pride
Don't ever need to apologise
As your lips, unfold, shaking purpple from the cold
You better learn to crawl, you better learn to crawl
Before I walk away, before I walk away
You broke my mouth
The bloody bits are apitting out
Is your grave unscathed? The worm is couting down the day
The wants to see you crawl, he wants to see you crawl
Before I walk away before I wak away
The reds and the white and abused the crucified usa
As every prophecy unfolds
Hell is surely on its way

Sex On Fire

Lay where you're laying
Don't make no sound
I know they're all watching
All the commotion
The kiddie like play
Has people talking
You... [this] sex on fire
Dark of the alley
The breaking of the day
The head while I'm driving
Soft lips are open
Knuckles are pale
Feels like you're dying
Your sex is on fire
Consumed, with what's to transpire
Hot as a fever rattling bones
I can just taste it
If it's not forever, if it's just tonite
Oh, it's still the greatest
You, your sex is on fire

Use Somebody

I've been roaming around
Always looking down at all I see
Painted faces, fill the places I can't reach
You know that I could use somebody
Someone like you, and all you know and how you speak
Countless lovers under cover of the street
You know that I could use somebody, you know that I could use somebody, someone like you
Off in the night while you live it up I'm off to sleep
Waging wars to shake the poet and the beat
I hope it's gonna make you notice, someone like me, go and let it out
Someone like you (somebody)
I've been roaming around always looking down at all I see.

Manhattan

I like to dance all night
Summons the da,y but that’s how I play yeah, that’s how I play
I said who are you? Don’t matter who you are
Just saw you dance all night and dance all day, I say
We’re gonna build a fire, gonna stoke it up
We’re gonna sip this wine and pass the cup
Who needs avenues? Who needs reservoirs?
We’re gonna show this town, how to kiss these stars, I say
We’re gonna hunt to kill, gonna skin the hide
A yelp and scream and away I ride
And every drop that spills on every plot of ground
It’s all for you, for what you found, I say
It’s gonna take your head, and gonna drive you home
It’s gonna keep on, keep on, keep on
And then forever roam

Revelry

What a night for a dance
You know that I’m a dancing machine
With a fire in my bones and the sweet taste of kerosene
I got lost in the light, so high I don’t want to come down
To face the loss of the good thing that I had found
Woo hoo hoo
In the dark of the night I can hear you calling my name
With the harvest of hearts I still feel full of pain
So I drink and I smoke and I ask if you’re ever around
Even though it was me that drove us right in the ground
See the time we shared it was precious to me
But all the while I was dreaming of revelry
Born to run, baby run like a stream down a mountainside
With the wind at my back I don’t ever even bat an eye
Just know it was you all along who had a hold of my heart
But the demon and me where the best of friends from the start
So the time we shared it was precious to me
All the while I was dreaming of revelry
And I told myself boy away you go
It rained so hard it felt like snow
Everything came tumbling down on me
In the back of the woods, in the dark of the night
The paleness of the hold moonlight
Everything just felt so incomplete dreaming of revelry

Seventeen

Oh, she’s only 17
Wine and wine and wound up over everything
Bloody Mary breakfast busting up the scene
Brothers frightened when’s a baby gonna sleep
Hidden ship two sails away
It’s a culmination of a story and a goodbye session
It’s the tick of our time and the tick in her head that makes me feel so strange
I could call you baby, I could call you dammit, It’s one in a million
Oh, it’s the rolling of her Spanish tongue that makes me want to stay

Notion

I’ve got a notion to say what doesn’t feel right
I got an answer in your story today
It gave me a sign that didn’t feel right
Say, don’t knock it, don’t knock it, you’ve been here before
So don’t knock it, don’t knock it, you’ve been here before
I just wanted to know if I could go home
I’ve been rambling day after day
Everyone says I don’t know
So don’t knock, don’t knock, you’ve been here before
I’ve got a notion to say what doesn’t feel right
I just wanted to know if I could go home
Say, don’t knock it, don’t knock it, you’ve been here before
