Evan Taubenfeld : Welcome to the Blacklist Club

Teksty


1. PUMPKIN PIE

I was fine with just hanging out
I was living like a player in a west coast town Yeah
I never thought that I would ever settle down
Always - One girl after the other
Didn't wanna be your boyfriend - All I needed was your number
Lemme share a little bit of what I found
There were so many flavours I wanted to taste

But then Jamie I thought she was the one
But she played me just like 21
Then Katie I couldn't get enough
She was just like pumpkin pie
And then Katie she kinda had a thing with Stacy
And that was pretty fun and lately
I wanna go to sleep with the same girl
The same girl every night

Some girls should come with a warning
And a dose of penicillin first thing in the morning
But last night that never really crossed my mind
Always - One girl after the other
I was hitting on your roommate - I was flirting with your mother
And now I get the feeling it was all a waste of time

Like Jamie I thought she was the one
But she played me just like 21
Then Katie I couldn't get enough
She was just like pumpkin pie
And then Katie she kinda had a thing with Stacy
And that was pretty fun and lately
I wanna go to sleep with the same girl every night

I want the same girl every night
Who wants the same guy every night
In the same bed every night
Every single night
I want the same girl every night
Who wants the same guy every night
What a perfect simple life
Every single night

So many flavours I wanted to taste
All of those girls - How could I forget those names?

Like Jamie I thought she was the one
‘Till she played me just like 21
Then Katie I couldn't get enough
She was just like pumpkin pie
And baby - You're the only one that can save me
I guess I'm in love ‘cause lately
I wanna go to sleep with the same girl
The same girl every night


2. BOY MEETS GIRL

With a bang
She was there
Yeah she blew apart my cover wasn't looking for a lover and I crashed
I fell apart
And now I'm picking up the pieces
No - They're not exactly Reese’s
But it's a start
Did you ever think I'd let you go?
You're the only thing I've ever known

It's like Twisted Sister
Meets Mr. Mister
It's like a Rolling Thunder
Meets a Careless Whisper
It's like Jesus Jones and the Rolling Stones in a game of twister
It's like boy meets girl

And she went right
And I went wrong
By the time I turned around and looked for her over my shoulder she was gone
I'll never know
How to make her favorite drink
And does she like the color pink
And hate her toes?
Did you ever think I'd let you go?
Think I always knew that we'd grow old

It's like Twisted Sister
Meets Mr. Mister
It's like a Shout at the Devil
Meets a Careless Whisper
It's like Motörhead and the Grateful Dead in a game of twister
It's like boy meets girl

When I when I saw you - I could see
I wanna wanna have you lying next to me
I wish that I could take it back
Put you on my favorite track
Play ya on repeat
Every day since then is incomplete

It's like Twisted Sister
Meets Mr. Mister
It's like a Rolling Thunder meets a Careless Whisper
It's like Fleetwood Mac - Biggie and Tupac in a game of twister
It's like boy meets girl
It's like boy meets girl
It's like you and me - Girl
You'll always be my girl


3. STORY OF ME AND YOU

Our picture - It was perfect
It was easy - It was working
It was a honeymoon all the time
But the sun don't always shine
All the problems started growing
It's the flirting - It's the clothing
Taking up the bathroom floor
But we don't do it like that no more

[Chorus]
You want to move on
We're righting the wrong
It's never been easy
We're not giving up - It's gonna be tough
But baby believe me
We're not breaking - We're just making it though
It’s the story of me
It’s the story of me and you

When I think of when we first met
And I'm playing it back in my head
We're talking on the phone past four
You always kept me wanting more
So I'm writing in a letter
‘Cause it can't get any less better
The fairy tale starts to fade
But the story won't end today

[Chorus]

And we can pick it up
Back where we left off
Even if we get it lost
Our story still counts on

[Chorus]

The story of me and you


4. MATTER OF TIME

I recall the first time that your picture caught my eye
Cracked a smile ‘cause I knew I had to have you
It wasn't long - Broke the rules and it's so hard to keep it cool
Called you up - Came right over - Just to get you
And every single chance I took was worth it
‘Cause every little inch of you is perfect

And when I saw you in real life
I knew I had to make you mine
Oh Heaven must’ve send you
I'd die if I could get you
Too good to be true and that's why
It's just a matter of time
Before I make you mine

The next night - We go out - Not a single soul around
Bite my lip ‘cause she almost makes me nervous
In the park - On the grass - Things are moving maybe fast
She pulls me in - God I love the taste on her lips
And every single chance I took was worth it
‘Cause every little inch of you is perfect

And when I saw you in real life
I knew I had to make you mine
Oh Heaven must’ve send you
I'd die if I could get you
Too good to be true and that's why
It's just a matter of time

I know that it's late
The sun's coming out
As she walks on the plane
I'm stuck on the ground
And as I turned away
She turns around and starts to say

Every single chance I took was worth it
‘Cause every little inch of you is perfect

And when I saw you in real life
Well I just had to make you mine
Oh Heaven must’ve send you
I'd die if I could get you
Too good to be true and that's why
It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time

Oh Heaven must’ve send you
I'd die if I could get you
Too good to be true and that's why
It's just a matter of time
Before I make you mine


5. IT'S LIKE THAT

I'm the kid on the rise
I'm the heat in the summer time
Everyone around me knows I'm on my way
You may not see it now
Looking at my bank account
Girl - You know I'm gonna fool the world some day

‘Cause when I get to where I'm going
I just don't think you'll be knowing
About the party that I'm gonna have

[Chorus]
It's like that - It's like that
We'll have the biggest mansion on the block and that's a fact
It's like that - It's like that
And everyone's invited
California to Iraq

Come on

I'll be midas
As you'll be gold
You won't have to sell your soul
Always keep a pair of aces up my sleeve
I got game like Beckham man
Frank in catch me if you can
Won't you take my hand and come away with me?

When we will hit our destination
Life will turn into vacation
Everybody all together now

[Chorus]

Everything I say is true
I would never lie to you
Trust me - Love me - Don't be crazy
'Cause I'd never hurt you - Baby

All the cash in the world
Won't make me rich without you - Girl
Don't you know that we can rule the world some day?

[Chorus]

It's like that - It's like that
We're going to the hills and maybe never coming back
It's like that - It's like that
And everyone's invited
California to Iraq
Everybody

Big Evil
That's right
And the Blacklist Club
Yeah
It's like that


6. RAZORBLADE LIMEADE

I took my own advice
I put it over ice
I never seem to listen when you pour
I didn't treat you right
So now I'm thinking twice
You look so pretty walking out the door
And you can be the captain - I can be the ship
And you can be the razorblade - Careful you don't slip

[Chorus]
Everytime I see you smile
Girl you make me wanna change
I'll try for you - I'll try for you
So tell me how to get you back
Because you got me going six feet under
Ground to prove - I'd die for you

I know I've made mistakes
But let me make it straight
I'm sure it's gonna take more than a rose
It hit me like a quake
I know I've been a flake
But I ain't gonna let this case be closed
And you can be the lime and I can be the twist
And you can be the razorblade - Careful you don't slip

[Chorus]

I wanna kill the past - I wanna make it last
Or maybe I should get it over fast
Or I could stick around to get you back
Again again

[Chorus]


7. CHEATER OF THE YEAR

You told your friends
Who told my friends
That you got drunk and spent the night
With some guy you didn't know at all
Now you are so resistant
Your story's inconsistent
You swear you only kissed him
But I know it's a lie

You tried to be PG rate it
But that's not how it played in my head
Yeah you front like you've been cryin’
But I know that you're lying again

[Chorus]
And this is the part when you disappear
It’s a chiché break up here
Yeah we're D O N E
Tell me how it feels to be the cheater of the year
And this is the part when you she'd a tear
Let me make it very clear
That we're O V E R
I know who you really are
You're the cheater of the year

I hope that you're happy
You've ruined everything we had
I want my spinfire t-shirt back
You know what my stance is
I don't do second chances
And all those high school dances
I could have gone stag

You tryin’ to explain it
But I ain’t gonna play that again - No

[Chorus]

Cheater of the year
It’s good to know that you’re alone
Cheater of the year
It’s good to know that you'll be sorry

[Chorus]


8. EVAN WAY

What if she got in the car?
And they never even crashed
Would it change who we all are?
Would I have this photograph?
Now I wonder everyday
How a telephone pole missed him
I'm so glad he stayed awake
'Cause I don't think I'd be living

Don't be ashamed
You made a mistake
We'll all be okay

[Chorus]
And things go wrong
Sometimes we fall
The world turns and we move along
And that's what makes us who we are
So just be strong
'Cause life's not long
Before ya know it - We'll all be gone
And this will be the last today - Ever

Well the doctor's sad to say
That they thought he may not make it
As the tears spilled down her face
She shouted 'I can't take this'
Now I wonder everyday
About the stuff he must be thinking
I just don't know how to say
That I wish you would stop drinking

You're not to blame
We've all made mistakes
And it is okay

[Chorus]

Don't you want to change?
I just hope that you'll do it
What we learned on Evan Way
And maybe the best thing to happen now

[Chorus]

This could be the last today - Ever


9. WAITING

Time is running out
You know I've gotta leave
And you're holding on so tight
That I can hardly breathe
All I wanna do
And what I try to say
Is we can make it through
But then you tell me
I will wait for you forever
Don't be gone too long

'Cause we're hanging on
Like we always do
When it all goes wrong
I remember that I'm lucky that I found you
And after all that we say and do
I think you know it's true
That I will be waiting
That I will be waiting too

The clock keeps ticking on
But I'll be coming soon
I'm counting every minute down
‘Cause I miss you
I'll be there for you forever

[Chorus]

You're hanging on like we always do
When it all goes wrong
I remember that I'm lucky that I found you
And after all that we say and do
I think you know it's true
I'll be waiting - I'll be waiting for you
I'll be waiting for you
I'll be waiting - I'll be waiting for you - For you


10. BETTER THAN YOU

I'm gonna make her mine

Just like that - She's gone

I think your girlfriend's getting bored
She wants a ten - She got a four
You shouldn't leave her wanting more
I'll help her find it
I'm what she wishes you could be
When she's with you - She thinks of me
Now you can't give her what she needs
Hope you don't mind it
You're wondering why she don't want you
Goodbye

‘Cause I'm better than you - Better than you
And everything you do
You're out of time - I'm gonna make her mine
I'm gonna take your girl from you
There's nothing that you can do
You're out of time - I'm gonna make her mine

I'm at her house the nights you're not
Lately that seems to be a lot
I know the way to hit that spot
It drives her crazy
And I take her places that you can't
And I'm not talking about Japan
Looks like she wants a different man
Go on and hate me
She tells you size just doesn't matter

I'm better than you - Better than you
And everything you do
You're out of time - I'm gonna make her mine
I'm gonna take your girl from you
Ain't shit that you can do
You're out of time - I'm gonna make her mine

And you're just another average Joe
You outta let her go and be with someone more like me
And nothing you do or say will ever make that change

I'm better than you - Better than you
And everything you do
You're out of time - I'm gonna make her mine
Gonna take your girl from you
There's nothing that you can do
You're out of time - I'm gonna make her mine

I'm gonna make her mine
You better say goodbye
I'm gonna make her mine
Better than you

11. STARBUCKS GIRL

(x2)
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
Yeah you're my starbucks girl

I was standing in line
The barista caught my eye
She was pouring up a shot
I was running out of time
I swear my tongue - It was stuck
When she got to my cup
I said ‘goodbye’ ‘cause I'm shy
But I think she might actually be the one

I wanna come back for you all day
But I don’t know what I would say
I’m crushing so hard that my head aches
So sprinkle on my heartbreak now

[Chorus]
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
Yeah you're my starbucks girl
I can’t get enough
I can’t get enough
I can’t get enough
Yeah you're my starbucks girl
Think it’s time I tell ya straight
The coffee here it’s kinda great
But I just come to be with you
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
Yeah you're my starbucks girl

I came back for my fix
Got a new shirt and kicks
And there ain't no denying
She was liking my tricks
I said ‘let's go - Gotta run’
‘Cause the good life just begun
You can quit your job take your apron off
‘Cause now you know that you're my number one

And all I could think of about all day
Is you and I running away
You’re the addiction I won’t shake
So sprinkle on my heartbreak now

[Chorus]

Girl - Skip the sugar bar
‘Cause you’re sweet the way you are
We don’t need no honey and spice
‘Cause we go together like a mocha over ice

I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
Yeah you're my starbucks girl
I can’t get enough
I can’t get enough
I can’t get enough
Yeah you're my starbucks girl
I don’t care - I don’t care what it takes
And I don’t care how long I have to wait
I just wanna be with you
We’re falling in love
We’re falling in love
We’re falling in love
Yeah you're my starbucks girl


12. I LOVE THE BOTH OF YOU

So we got an issue
Put away the tissues
I'm telling you now that things will be alright
The woman that you're caring
And other times you swearing
And how will I ever know what's on your mind?
Well hear me out
I'm not complaining
Got a theory that explains it

[Chorus]
I guess you're schizophrenic
But I swear I don't regret it
Yeah I love the things you do
I promise that is true
Here is my confession
Yeah I hurt your imperfections
And I think it's time you knew
I love the both
I love the both of you

No I don't need a warning
At least you’re never boring
I'm watching you laugh yourself until you cry
Well I don't let it face me
We're all a little crazy
But who wants to have the sugar with no spice?
Hear me out
‘Cause I’m not faking
I don't ever want you changing

[Chorus]

Like a box of chocolates
And the coin after it flips
Like a card out of the deck
How can you ever be sure what you're gonna get?

[Chorus]

I guess you're schizophrenic
But I swear I don't regret it
Yeah I love the things you do
I promise that is true
Here is my confession
Yeah I heart your imperfections
And I think it's time you knew
I love the both
I love the both
I think it's time you knew
I love the both
I love the both of you

I don't ever want you changing girl


13. LOVE/HATE

You make me wanna explode - But somehow we fit
Why do you tell me I'm gold - Then treat me like?
Nothing I do is good enough - Yeah you're the perfect one
I know that I should run - But I don't wanna leave

[Chorus]
It's a love/hate relationship
I love to hate you - I gotta admit
It's a love/hate relationship
You're the drug that I just can't kick
I guess I like it

Wish I could go back before you got me in bed
Now everyday is a war but you give the best
After we're through I can't complain
It's such a dirty game
I know that I should run but I don't wanna leave
Even though I know that you don't give a fuck about me

[Chorus]

If I knew what I know now - I would have never got in
I thought I had you down - I never saw this coming
I cannot wait for the day when I can finally get out
I wanna see your face - You wanna fuck me now

[Chorus]

I guess I like it
I guess I like it
I guess I like
I guess I like it
