Dark Water 04:00
lyrics
buy track
Walking in the shallow, headed for the deep I'll leave you with something, though it's nothing to keep It's with your will you choose to go under It's no wonder you'll be walking alone In dark water, in dark water Underneath the air you are sitting there, waiting Holding your breath, your heart starts aching It's against your will the thrill is disappearing You're too weary to turn around from the end In dark water, in dark water, in dark water, in dark water

Wanna hit the G-Bo, momma Wanna hit the G-Bo, momma Don't wanna hit the bong or the blades, I just wanna go fill the bucket up and get down with the G-Bo Gonna hit the G-Bo, momma Well I'll provide the fire if you provide the pull, Now we'll find out who's afraid of the big bad bowl on the G-Bo Gonna hit the G-Bo, momma Well you told me you were done with that dirty third lung 'cause it's evil Left the roaches in the tray, they were gone the next day from all the people and all the resin and the oil and aluminum foil is looking lethal but even in this stormy weather we can put our heads together, find some shit around the house and make a… G-Bo Wanna hit the G-Bo, momma Wanna hit the G-Bo, momma Well now I like a little ginger with my california roll, but it's ten times better when I hit the G-Bo before I leave home Gonna hit the G-Bo, momma Last night I left the bucket outside in the cold, now I'm thinking about turning the old fishbowl into a G-Bo Gonna hit the G-Bo, momma Well you told me you were done with that dirty third lung 'cause it's evil Left the roaches in the tray, they were gone the next day from all the people and all the resin and the oil and aluminum foil is looking lethal but even in this stormy weather we can put our heads together, find some shit around the house and make a… G-Bo

Sweet Love 03:23

Sweet - We're looking for some sweet love Sweet - We're looking for some sweet love The time has come to set yourself free There's no need to be alone All you're searching for is a sugar so sweet Good enough to bring her home Sweet - We're looking for some sweet love Sweet - We're looking for some sweet love You need a way to keep your head up There's no need to bring it down All you're looking for is some love You've gotta keep on movin' round You may not even know it's coming And the wait it seems so long It may not even turn to something But in the end you can't go wrong Sweet - We're looking for some sweet love Sweet - We're looking for some sweet love

If it bugs you to see someone use the words there/their/they're in the wrong context, then this song is for you! Help them get it through their head. lyrics You should call it someone's possession, but you call it a place It's in the context you put it, though it sounds the same When you're writing it down, remember: It's no mystery If you have a group, well they are with apostrophe You can't seem to get it through your head You gotta, gotta, gotta get it in (4x) (Get it through your head, get it through) Why can't you see? T-H-E-Y apostrophe R-E Don't be a clown, spelled with an "I", it makes it a pronoun All across the nation, T-H-E-R-E is a location Why can't you see? T-H-E-Y apostrophe R-E T-H-E-Y apostrophe R-E

Real Men 02:28
lyrics

Feel the shame that envelopes your name It's hard to escape it, I reason Seen you sink so low, and I would like to know if you're having a hard time sleeping? This is how real men do this Your heart is full of holes, 'cause this would eat my soul It's a wonder that you're even breathing Your stories getting old, how you can't keep control of what it is that you're feeling This is how real men do this
