Archie, Marry Me
02:34
|

You've expressed explicitly your contempt for matrimony
You've student loans to pay and will not risk the alimony
We spend our days locked in a room content inside a bubble
And in the night time we go out and scour the streets for trouble
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
During the summer take me sailing out on the Atlantic
I won't set my sights on other seas, there is no need to panic
So honey take me by the hand and we can sign some papers
Forget the invitations, floral arrangements and bread makers
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Too late to go out, too young to stay in
They're talking about us living in sin
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie Crisanto

Young 'Till I Die
02:09
|

You waited long for 21.
For me the fight has just begun.
You give up, drink alcohol,
It makes you feel like you're ten feet tall.
I don't wanna grow up,
I'm never getting old.
I'd rather work from 9 to 5
Than drink to stay alive.
I'm gonna stay young until I die!
I'm gonna stay young until I die!
You grew up fast, now you'll die soon.
I'll never, be like you.
You finish college, grab a wife,
You're dead before you're 35.
I don't wanna grow up,
I'm never getting old.
I'd rather work from 9 to 5
Than drink to stay alive.
I'm gonna stay young until I die!
I'm gonna stay young until I die!

Elenore
02:33
|

You got a thing about you
I just can't live without you
I really want you Elenore near me
Your looks intoxicate me
Even though your folks hate me
There's no one like you Elenore really
Elenore gee I think you're swell
And you really do me well
You're my pride and joy et cetera
Elenore can I take the time
To ask you to speak your mind
Tell me that you love me better
I really think you're groovy
Let's go out to a movie
What do ya say now, Elenore can we?
They'll turn the lights way down low
Maybe we won't watch the show
I think I love you, Elenore, love me
Elenore, gee I think you're swell
And you really do me well
You're my pride and joy, et cetera
Elenore, can I take the time
To ask you to speak your mind?
Tell me that you love me better
Elenore, gee I think you're swell, ah-hah
Elenore, gee I think you're swell, ah-hah-hah

Only a Fool
03:17
|
|||
Why do I keep fooling myself
When I know you love someone else
Only a fool breaks his own heart
I pretend that I don't see
When you walk with him down the street
Only a fool breaks his own heart
I have to admit it
Even though you hurt me so girl
I can't forget it
If I'm a man I'd let you go
It's no use trying to hang on
To a love already gone
Only a fool breaks his own heart
I have to admit it
Even though you hurt me so girl
I can't forget it
If I'm a man I'd let you go
It's no use trying to hang on
To a love already gone
Only a fool breaks his own heart
Only a fool breaks his own heart
Only a fool breaks his own heart

To see the light and try but fail
On jagged seas that can't be sailed
And sought to lead but always trailed
Asked questions anyway
And all around the breeding grounds
The nymphos sweetly played
The queen of cans and jars will keep them safe
To be so keen on global trend
To be so tight on how and when
To scratch and claw until the end
To work for each new day
And all around the hunting ground
The dead were on display
The queen of cans and jars will keep them safe
They're forming in straight line
They're going through a tight one
The kids are losing their minds
Blitzkrieg bop
They're piling in the back seat
They're generating steam heat
Pulsating to the back beat
Blitzkrieg bop

The Way I Are
02:52
|

I ain't got no money
I ain't got no car to take you on a date
I can't even buy you flowers
But together we can be the perfect soul mates
Talk to me girl
Oh, baby, it's alright now, you ain't gotta flaunt for me
If we go and touch, you can still touch my love, it's free
We can work without the perks just you and me
Thug it out 'til we get it right
I ain't got no Visa
I ain't got no Red American Express
We can't go nowhere exotic
It don't matter 'cause I'm the one that loves you best
Talk to me girl
Oh, baby, it's alright now, you ain't gotta flaunt for me
If we go and touch, you can still touch my love, it's free
We can work without the perks just you and me
Thug it out 'til we get it right
Baby if you strip, you can get a tip
'Cause I like you just the way you are
I'm about to strip and I'm well equipped
Can you handle me the way I are?
I don't need the G's or the car keys
Boy I like you just the way you are
Let me see you strip, you can get a tip
'Cause I like, I like, I like
Baby girl, I don't got a huge ol' house I rent a room in a house
Listen baby girl, I ain't got a motorboat but I can float your boat
So listen baby girl, once you get a dose of Drew Danburry you're gonna want some more
So listen baby girl, this is just a cover song I did in the room that I'm living in
Oh, baby, it's alright now, you ain't gotta flaunt for me
If we go and touch, you can still touch my love, it's free
We can work without the perks just you and me
Thug it out 'til we get it right

I've got a secret
Do you wanna try and guess?
Or do you need a hint?
I know someone who cares about the way you wear your hair
And what you're doing later, and who you're thinking about
He's someone who gets real nervous when you walk by
Do you know how many times he's wanted to say hi?
And I know he's going crazy waiting for the right time
I've got a secret
Something I will never tell
I guess I might as well
I've a box of old letters that don't mean a thing to me
I've got a closet full of clothes that have been there since the seventies
And I've got ideas and dreams but twice as many doubts
I wish I had someone I couldn't do without
But if I open up my mouth something lame might come out
I'd like to keep this just between you and me

I Do
02:54
|
|||
All the times you came
I should've ran away
You told me that you'd always love me
You told me that you'd always love me
And the games you played
Were meant to lead me on
You told me that you'd always love me
You told me that you'd always love me
Always, oooh always
I do
You told me that you'd always love me
You told me that you'd always love me
Always, oooh always
I do
Never more again
Will I believe the sun

Everyday is like Sunday
03:17
|

Trudging slowly over wet sand
Back to the bench where your clothes were stolen
This is the coastal town
That they forgot to close down
Armageddon, come Armageddon!
Come, Armageddon! Come!
Everyday is like Sunday
Everyday is silent and grey
Hide on the promenade
Etch a postcard :
"How I Dearly Wish I Was Not Here"
In the seaside town
That they forgot to bomb
Come, come, come, nuclear bomb
Everyday is like Sunday
Everyday is silent and grey
Trudging back over pebbles and sand
And a strange dust lands on your hands
And on your face, on your face
Everyday is like Sunday
Everyday is silent and grey

Thirty-Three
05:08
|

Speak to me in a language I can hear
Humour me before I have to go
Deep in thought I forgive everyone
As the cluttered streets greet me once again
I know I can't be late supper's waiting on the table
Tomorrow's just an excuse away
So I pull my collar up and face the cold on my own
The earth laughs beneath my heavy feet
At the blasphemy in my old jangly walk
Steeple guide me to my heart and home
The sun is out and up and down again
I know I'll make it, love can last forever
Graceful swans of never topple to the earth
And you can make it last, forever you
You can make it last, forever
And for a moment I lose myself
Wrapped up in the pleasures of the world
I've journeyed here and there and back again
But in the same old haunts I still find my friends
Mysteries not ready to reveal
Sympathies I'm ready to return
I'll make the effort, love can last forever
Graceful swans of never topple to the earth
Tomorrow's just an excuse
And you can make it last, forever you
You can make it last, forever you
