Didn't know what I needed 'til I saw it
Didn't know what I loved 'til I held it close
Didn't know what to sing until I heard the song
Never knew what I had 'til it was gone

Weekend Crib
03:27
|
|||
|
When I am blue
Grab a brew
Think of you
Consider a stew
Get a pot
Make some soup
And I'm lovin' this life
Everything is alright
I see the lake, the trees, and the mountain tops
Calling' dibs on the weekend crib
With all that we do
Need solitude
Here with you
The city is dead
Gone to bed
All turned red
Let's go hop in the tub
We're makin' love
Livin' life on the edge, just the two of us
Calling' dibs on the weekend crib
I fall in love
With the world that's all around us
I fall in love
With the birds, bees, and the trees
Livin' in all the ways
Livin' in all the ways
I find peace in solitude
Take my hand, have a walk with me
Wear a pretty little hat, make you feel fancy
Man, see
We'll be British with a noon cup of tea
Add a fifth, just to sip
Readin' books, never watch on TV
Start the day off with a wink and kiss
Listen to wax, but not 'cause it's hip
Sounds like it's honey, the apple is crisp
It always feels good at the weekend crib
Friday is done
No more runnin'
Just fun
Out in the sun
With my hun
And man bun
The kids are away
For a couple of days
I'll grab the brews and the bikes and the cheese and the wine
Calling' dibs on the weekend crib
I fall in love
With the world that's all around us
I fall in love
With the birds, bees, and the trees
Livin' in all the ways
Livin' in all the ways
I find peace in solitude

Hold Tight
04:14
|

|
Hold tight, my friend
Heard you were feeling down
Too much hatred around
Wanna get outta town
Maybe live underground
Let me tell you 'bout a scene
It can work like a dream
Go to the place where all the good hearted people sing
Hard days, one step forward, two steps backwards
Hold tight, my friend
Broke but living free
Blind yet able to see
I see the wolves closing in
I hear the demons out there laughing at my sins
Trust thy hand that draws thy sword
I'll take one step forward
Cut demons down, my reward
Is I can go to the place where all the goodhearted people sing
Hard days, one step forward, two steps backwards
Long nights hanging out with my friends
I know every little thing gon' be alright, babe
Hold tight, my friend
Spent years living apart until the weekend comes
But the weekdays bleed into the weekend some
We've both been through a lot, but I've become numb
Your wounds are still fresh, depressed by tedium
The everyday ho-hum, eyes will not flow from
This ain't the first and it won't be the last one
One step forward and two steps back
Turn around and you're closer to game, set, match
Just because one's sour, don't throw out the batch
Just because the road is long doesn't mean you turn back, ATTACK!
Naw, I'd never treat you like that, in fact you always keep me on track
With a smile so bright, keep me calm all through the night and
Every little thing gonna be alright
Hard days, one step forward, two steps backwards
Long nights hanging out with my friends YEAH
I know every little thing gon' be alright, babe
Hold tight, my friend
Hard days, one step forward, two steps backwards
Long nights hanging out with my friends
I know every little thing gon' be alright, babe
Hold tight, my friend

Say What You Mean

Say what you mean, girl you don't have to think twice
Tell me what's on your mind, baby never apologize
Tell me what you mean (need) girl, you don't have to be nice
Never apologize
There'll be times you'll have to walk alone
With no one there to tell you so
Tell me what's on your mind
Say what you mean, girl you don't have to think twice
Tell me what's on your mind, baby never apologize
Tell me what you mean (need) girl, you don't have to be nice
Never ever apologize
At the park the other day
You were crying in the rain
Tell me what's on your mind
Say what you mean, girl you don't have to think twice
Tell me what's on your mind, baby never apologize
Tell me what you mean (need) girl, you don't have to be nice
Never ever apologize
You can't please everybody all the time
Spread the love that's in your heart
Tell me what's on your mind
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Never apologize
Say what you mean, girl you don't have to think twice
Tell me what's on your mind, baby never apologize
Tell me what you mean (need) girl, you don't have to be nice
Never ever apologize
Say what you mean, girl you don't have to think twice
Tell me what's on your mind, baby never apologize
Tell me what you mean (need) girl, you don't have to be nice
Never apologize

Pretty Girls
03:38

I like to party with those pretty girls
Think I'm gettin' drunk with the fellas tonight
Hoppin' in my truck and I'm headed to Kentucky
Where the whiskey flows and the Southern women love me
Don't know what's a-coming but
I know I'm gettin' drunk tonight
Goin' through some hard times and I'm lookin' for some trouble
And when my mind is set I'm gonna find it and a double
Got two babies in tow and
I'm lookin' for a three-school tonight
When I woke up stoned, alone
Butt-naked in the hotel lobby
I knew I'd been had
Day's turned bad again
I like to party with those pretty girls
But things always seem to spin right out of my control
I ain't gonna let you make me the fool you took for a ride
I think I'm gettin' drunk with the fellas tonight
It's the golden elixir gonna get me there quicker
And my better sense of judgement takes a dive right out the window
Batten down the hatches
You know I'm comin' tonight
When I woke up stoned, alone
Butt-naked in the hotel lobby
I knew I'd been had
Day's turned bad again
I like to party with those pretty girls
But things always seem to spin right out of my control
I ain't gonna let you make me the fool you took for a ride
I think I'm gettin' drunk with the fellas tonight
Seems like trouble finds a way
Fires the gun and we're off to the races
Fall to my knees, perhaps that I should pray
Crack open a bottle, find a pill to swallow
Yes I'm on my way
I like to party with those pretty girls
But things always seem to spin right out of my control
I ain't gonna let you make me the fool you took for a ride
I think I'm gettin' drunk with the fellas tonight
Listen
Well I've been a fool too many times in my life
I guess I'm gettin' drunk with the fellas tonight

Back Home
03:40

Always tryin' to get back home
Always tryin' to get back home
Someone steered me wrong
I long to be where I belong
Always tryin' to get back home
Always tryin' to get back home
Always tryin' to get back home
I'm a rambler, I'm a drifter
Lord, I miss my sister
Always tryin' to get back home
They say that home is where the heart is
But I'm a prisoner in darkness
Please pick up the phone
And take me home
I don't wanna be here alone
I don't wanna be here alone
Each day feels like forever
I wonder why I ever left her
I don't wanna be here alone
Never wanted so long to roam
Never wanted so long to roam
I'm a cheat, I'm a liar
The situation is dire
Now I'm tryin' not get back home
They say that home is where the heart is
But I'm a prisoner in darkness
Please pick up the phone
And take me home
Home is where the heart is
But I'm a prisoner in darkness
I can't do this alone
They say that home is where the heart is
But I'm a prisoner in darkness
Please pick up the phone
And take me home
Take me home
Take me home

Better Man
03:09
|

|
If I start to stray just know that I've lost my way
And I'm tryin' to be a better man for you
You deserve so much more than I've had in store
And I'm tryin' to be a better man for you
Some men thrive half the time
Some men die and never realize
Give me time, at least to try
And I'll try to be a better man for you
There's a war out there that's ragin'
In our hearts and on the pavement
And you feel there's not a damn thing you can do
Pick up arms and join the struggle
Give a hug, it's half the trouble
Ask yourself what a better man would do
Some men thrive half the time
Some men die and never realize
Give me time, at least to try
And I'll try to be a better man for you
If you step into the light, there's a mirror to your right
There's a man that you have always longed to be
Broken dreams and broken hearts - a very fine place to start
We all know the truth can set us free
Some men thrive half the time
Some men die and never realize
Give me time, at least to try
And I'll try to be a better man for you
Some men thrive half the time
Some men die and never realize
Give me time, at least to try
And I'll try to be a better man for you
And I'll try to be a better man for you
And I'll try to be a better man for you

You're Gonna Make It
04:04
|
|||
|
I started the day just like any other
Rolled out of bed and stumbled down the stairs
Then a wave of terror came over me
This frightening feeling I wasn't prepared
There was a voice I heard in my head
And I'll tell you just what it said
You can be anything you want, just open your mind
Whether you're lucky or you're not, gotta put in your time
Give it everything you got, and even though
It may seem like it's crawling so slowly
I know you're gonna make it
If you're tired and frustrated you could leave it 'til morning
Or try it again 'til you get it right
While the whole rest of the world is snoring
You could be makin' a better day throughout the night
Just remember there's a voice in your head
Gotta listen to it when it says
You can be anything you want, just open your mind
Whether you're lucky or you're not, gotta put in your time
Give it everything you got, and even though
It may seem like it's crawling so slowly
I know you're gonna make it
You're gonna make it this time
And everything will be just fine
Oh, little darlin'
If it's hard, all that you can do
Is just keep pushing' through
You can be anything you want, just open your mind
Whether you're lucky or you're not, gotta put in your time
Give it everything you got, and even though
It may seem like it's crawling so slowly
I know you're gonna make it

Trin

I've been living' in sin, all alone with my friends
I'm a-losin' and Trin, you're all I think about
Torn apart at the core, trapped in a black hole
Won't you come home and we can reminisce about'
Wastin' the days down at the arcade
How you love to play
Can we try it again, like all those video games?
Put another quarter in
Trin
Why don't you come back so we can start again?
I'll say it again
Why don't you come back so we can start again?
I's a fool not to say, couldn't ruin the game
It's a cryin' shame and this is what it's all about
And it all depends, are we more than just friends
Hopin' in the end that we can reminisce about
Wastin' those nights down at the arcade
How you love to play
Can we try it again like all those video games?
Put another quarter in
Trin
Why don't you come back so we can start again?
I'll say it again
Why don't you come back so we can start again?
Down on my knees, begin' you please
Won't you come back home
Wastin' those nights down at the arcade
How you love to play
Can we try it again like all those video games?
Put another quarter in
Trin
Why don't you come back so we can start again?
I'll say it again
Why don't you come back so we can start again?
Wastin' those nights down at the arcade
How you love to play
Can we try it again like all those video games?
Put another quarter in
Trin
Why don't you come back so we can start again?
I'll say it again
Why don't you come back so we can start again?

Non-stop, it's part of the plan
One in a thousand, thousand, grand
At the beach, got your toes in the sand
Only ladies for this man are
My girls
My girls
My girls
My girls
Gettin' crazy, blazin' around
Sweet little trio hitting' the town
Jump high, then back on the ground
Get your kicks from that Rock & Roll sound
My girls
My girls
My girls
My girls
Every day when I wake up
There is sunshine lying next to me
Things have started to shape up, baby
And the more I think about it, nothing can compare to
My girls
My girls
My girls
My girls
My girls
My girls
My girls
My girls
My girls
My girls

Before It's Gone
03:36
|

|
Didn't know what I needed 'til I saw it
Didn't know what I loved 'til I held it close
Didn't know what to sing until I heard the song
Never know what I have until it's gone
Didn't know how to cry until I broke it
Didn't know how to care while it was in my hand
Didn't know where to start 'til it was done
Or what I had 'til it was gone
Oh, when it's gone
The bottle's empty, poured out right onto the ground
Just hang onto what matters the most
'Cause you never know just how long it'll be around
You ever feel like you're takin' it for granted
Forgetting just how precious and how rare
Live within the moment while it's there
'Cause oh, when it's gone
The promise was broken, left outside in the rain
Just hang onto what matters the most
Because without it, things will never be the same
Oh, when it's gone
The bottle's empty, poured out right onto the ground
Just hang onto what matters the most
'Cause you never know just how long it'll be around
Gotta learn how to love before you lose it
Better learn how to hold it before it drops
You better learn how to walk before you run
And realize what you've got before it's gone

BIGTOOTH Seattle, Washington
Welcome to Seattle’s “Dad Pop” band, BIGTOOTH -
part chorus, part campfire song, part skeleton key and part
honey pot, dripping with melody. Electric-blue harmonies buoy big guitar chords and bright lightning bolt rhythms. No influence is out of bounds, no wave unworthy of the surf. It’s a blend of ingredients that harkens back to traditional styles and yet portends new positions of exclamation.
