"Date Night" lyrics
"Date Night"
In the Orange County Social Club
We each set out our cases
You said I guess I'll show you the ropes
Let the nickels mark the bases
How much is the membership?
We'd like to stay around
You address the bar
Tell me what is there to do in this college town?
Sat on velvet sofas
You say I don't make the rules
I offer up my Allen key
You say it's good to carry tools
Catch your eye in sequences
And only pot the white
We've been drinking all week long
But something 'bout tonight
Why are you so fucking happy?
Saw you dancing in the canteen
I just wanna devastate you
Everything else seems to make you cry
Why don't I?
Right across the bar
The keeper lets us be
You tell me you got all the memos, baby
I got the receipts
Trying out my accent
You say I hope you don't mind
Cowboy hats like that one
Aren't too hard to find
I pick up one of those books
You keep rolling out
You say that'll radicalize you, babe
Oh that'll make you shout
Oh you wanna hear me shout?
Huh
Why are you so fucking happy?
Saw you dancing in the canteen
I just wanna devastate you
Everything else seems to make you cry
Why don't I?
Why you gotta be that way
I can't stand the racket
You look so much like a child
In that old jean jacket
Next time that you see me
I'll be swaying softly
We could pool some money
Fly in for the Christmas party

London Grammar - "Wasting My Young Years" You crossed this line
Do you find it hard to sit with me tonight?
I've walked these miles but I've walked 'em straight lined
You'll never know what was like to be fine
I'm wasting my young years
It...

I've got some real estate here in my bag
So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner's pies
And we walked off to look for America

Lisa Hannigan - "Snow" Heading from city to sea
Just you and me
Boots creaking quietly
We would never be here again
Watching the snow falling down
Watching the city lose colour and sound
And we were looking
To find in...
Billie Marten - "Milk & Honey" Honey here we are
Dreaming in the dark
Trouble seems so far
Their thoughts were ours
But now we dream apart
Now we dream apart
Boiling water
But I'm just content with time well spent
Savor the taste...
Orla Gartland - "More Like You" I love the way you sing
Oh, I've been trying to copy every word you say
I love the way you think
You have this way of knowing it'll be ok
Where'd you get that confidence from?
Cause you wear it...
