Lyrics for T Minus Mambo Number 5

"Mambo No. 5" Ladies and gentlemen This is Mambo No. 5! One, two, three, four, five Everybody in the car, so come on let's ride To the liquor store around the corner The boys say they want some gin and juice But I really don't wanna Beer bust, like I had last week I must stay deep, 'cause talk is cheap I like Angela, Pamela, Sandra and Rita And as I continue you know they're getting sweeter So what can I do? I really beg you, my Lord To me flirting is just like a sport Anything fly, it's all good let me dump it Please set in the trumpet A little bit of Monica in my life A little bit of Erica by my side A little bit of Rita is all I need A little bit of Tina is what I see A little bit of Sandra in the sun A little bit of Mary all night long A little bit of Jessica here I am A little bit of you makes me your man Mambo No. 5! Jump up and down and move it all around Shake your head to the sound Put your hands on the ground Take one step left and one step right One to the front and one to the side Clap your hands once and clap your hands twice And if it looks like this then you're doing it right A little bit of Monica in my life A little bit of Erica by my side A little bit of Rita is all I need A little bit of Tina is what I see A little bit of Sandra in the sun A little bit of Mary all night long A little bit of Jessica here I am A little bit of you makes me your man Trumpet! The trumpet! Mambo No. 5! (ha ha ha) A little bit of Monica in my life A little bit of Erica by my side A little bit of Rita is all I need A little bit of Tina is what I see A little bit of Sandra in the sun A little bit of Mary all night long A little bit of Jessica here I am A little bit of you makes me your man I do all I do To fall in love with a girl like you You can't run and you can't hide You and me gonna touch the sky Mambo No. 5!

Lyrics for T-Minus Grand Gesture

I Don’t Wanna Know

Pick pocketing words cause you’re a thief

Correct enunciation put one over me

Perfect style masks imperfect technique

Hell no, it’s taking over me, it’s taking over me

I see it coming but I’m still standing

I’m not a player but on the weekends I can throw a few back

I was winning but I’m not a natural

I was nervous but now I am kidding myself

You seem to like the things that I know

The shoe ought to fit on the foot

I don’t wanna know

If we could lie to a kid who’s so gold

I’m ready now what are you waiting for?

You’ve seen the light you’re feeling so gold

I’m not belligerent. That’s a funny joke

If we could lie to a kid who’s so gold

I’m ready now what are you waiting for?

Rekindle

I’m counting to ten

You’ll run out of time

Do you know that I cheat?

There’s no time to hide

You’re drawing my bath

In the kitchen sink

I was too young to stand

Maybe too young to think

That the world is so bad

Because there’s no place to hide

You found me too fast

Was eaten alive

And I feel like I’m sad

Try to make myself cry

If I fall down the drain

What a fun way to die

My heart is drawn westbound

Calling to the east coast

Somebody’s gonna pay now

Everyone that we know

There’s not much to say

Because it’s what I’ve become

You don’t know where I’ve been

So you don’t know what I’ve done

You can just say what you want to say

I don’t care what I hear

Be what you want to be

Don’t care about me

The water’s gone cold

It’s temperamental

My body burned out

I wanna be rekindled

I only had a second

To make it something to bear

I had my whole life

To make myself scared

Because I know what I want

But don’t know what I’ll do

I’m just so fucking sick

Of what I do to you

My heart is drawn westbound

Calling to the east coast

Somebody’s gonna pay now

Everyone that we know

There’s not much to say

Because it’s what I’ve become

You don’t know where I’ve been

So you don’t know what I’ve done

You can just say what you want to say

I don’t care what I hear

Be what you want to be

Don’t care about me

TMINUSGRANDGESTURE

Who the hell are you?

I’ve seen your face; it’s nothing new

Because the aching in our hearts

Is just the longing of our youth

And who the hell am I?

Because you’re waking up a beast inside

I’m brimming with venom and spiraled confusion

If the body does what the body wants

Why do I feel like mine is giving up?

I’m asking a question

This answer might kill me

If a cure is found

I will let you know

Because I do what I do just to make you feel good

Does that mean I should? Does that mean I should?

What is the point of a world that I hate?

What do you take me for?

What is the point of a choice I can’t make?

What are you waiting for?

Because I do what I do just to make you feel good

Does that mean I should? Does that mean I should?

I’m losing my way from the path that I took

Does that make me good? Does that make me good?

Well I don’t know if we’re just fucked up in the head

It must be something in the air or was it something that we read

But what I do know now, it’s nothing new, it’s nothing new

I’m asking a question, this answer will kill me

If the body does what the body wants

Does your body feel like it needs a better one?

If there’s a special place in hell reserved for people like you

When you descend I’ll be there tried and true

Because I do what I do just to make you feel good

Does that mean I should? Does that mean I should?

What is the point of a world that I hate?

What do you take me for?

What is the point of a choice I can’t make?

What are you waiting for?

Because I do what I do just to make you feel good

Does that mean I should? Does that mean I should?

I’m losing my way from the path that I took

Does that make me good? Does that make me good?

Hard Enough

I don’t remember the first time

But I know I’ll never live it down

Because I fell from the sky

I let the bullet clip my wings

And I’m not sure if I’ll die

But I know it’s worth a shot

If I don’t make it this time

I swear I’ll give you something better to try

Stop, remember this time I don’t hate the way I love you

Stop, remember this time I was fake the way I missed you

Because it’s hard enough to be right here

With hole inside my rib cage breaking

It’s hard enough to be right here

With the kids you never wanted watching

Stop, remember this time I was fake the way I loved you

Stop, remember this time I just know that I will always miss you

Because it’s hard enough to be eighteen

When the whole wants to know who’s winning

It’s hard enough to be alone

With the person you are not becoming

It’s hard enough to be alone

It’s hard enough to be together

Open Up Your Mouth

If you don’t look down

The ground comes up to swallow you whole

But you know where to go

It’s not the place but the people that make the home

Open up your mouth

It’s the pill you never wanted to go down

It’s so tough to follow

The way your father meant for you to go

Everyone that you love

Is hoping you can find your way home

But don’t know where you are

This house is going down and filled with smoke

Open up your mouth

Your body thanks your lung for their support

It’s too tough to swallow

The smog you choke down, I’m saying something gold

Open up your mouth

It’s the words you never thought would come out

All the words that you swallow

Or nothing but a reason to stay home

I don’t want to grow old

I don’t want to die

But there’s nowhere left to go

Give me a reason to follow

I’m giving in, I’ll follow you home

Macaroni Time

Everybody, everybody’s cutting me off

From the tip of my tongue to the stones in my throat

Oh no

Another line can we tidy it up right now?

Another line can we tidy it up right now?

Brother save me from the past

I’m getting far too useless

Everybody’s going to hell

Like I should care

Take heed of the word I mention

I can’t be your intervention

Everybody’s breaking up this year

Another line can we tidy it up right now?

Another line can we tidy it up right now?

We watched to leave my eyes sore

We always lose to a bitter end

I loved you like a brother

I loved you more than just a friend

We should have learned our lesson

You know I wasn’t at my best

Best friends means friends don’t ever

Best friends means friends don’t ever ask

Killer Velocity

I’ll break a mirror

With my face inside of it

So I can see myself in

Twenty pieces count it for me

Maybe I’ll fall down on the pavement

Special delivery this one was made for me

You can not find out what I’m made of

Counting on surgery to stitch up this body

What I’m not kidding about

Your family’s finding out today

What I was waiting for

Is not a catastrophe a killer velocity

Watch your mother and sister

They don’t want to know about

Your electric guitar

It’s too far from me now

To get over the past

I just wish you had asked

About my electric guitar

It’s too far from me now

I don’t want to fade away

Sweep my bones to the shore

Consume my bitter body

Sweet like nothing before

Until you join the ocean

Stray to far from your home

Let the lonely feeling

Take us far from it all

I don’t want to fade away

I may be obsessed with this just a smidgen.

[derouter]

this song was “done” and then we went on tour and then I came back from tour and drank three wine coolers my roommate gave me when he moved out and I recorded like 7 more guitar tracks. This song would be so different if it weren’t for those wine coolers.

[bravebirdmi-blog]

You're my favourite band and I listen to you on loop practically every day. I just wanted to say thanks for the dope beats I guess.

Is there a guy named Matt in this band just saw some pictures and it looks like someone I know lol. Good tunes! I'm from Michigan and usually try to keep up on all the local music.

Yup. He was in our band when we first started, but then quit for a year to work in the video games section of a toys r us, but now is back. He recorded our new album for us and wrote a lot of the guitar. You may know him from such metal core sensations as The Vanity farewell.
