This is our stop So just reach up and ring the bell... But you're on... Why get off when you're already on So hard to get off when you're already on Don't get off babe you're already on I sit here in my room on the floor Memories stuck in like shrapnel from a war Just a ghost of myself A ghost of myself Wait a minute Wait a minute (more) Wait a minute In my city I walk the streets I pass through people, no matter who I meet Just a ghost of myself A ghost of myself Wait a minute Wait a minute (more) Wait a minute Oooo, ohhhh, Iiiiiiii Oooo, we get a lot of it, we get a lot of it now Oooo, we get a lot of it, we got a lot of it now Oooo, she said a lot of it, she said a lot of it now I wake up... I'm still alive Love's the disease from which you never die I'm just a ghost of myself A ghost of myself Wait a minute Wait a minute (more) Wait a minute Oooo, ohhhh, Iiiiiiii Oooo, we get a lot of it, we get a lot of it now Oooo, she said a lot of it, she said a lot of it now Oooo, we got a lot of it, we got a lot of it now

Lights in a minute, but nowhere to go Poured my heart on the stage, but they left the show They want more than I offered, more than my mind But anything below, baby, that's mine Are you what we're waiting for I gotta know... Are we cryin' out loud You chisel a nickle, you die by the dime Kill for a quarter, but no spending time So trade your days for nights, just sitting by the bar 'Cause you know deep down you ain't gettin' very far Are you what we're waiting for I gotta know... Are we cryin' out loud She says Heaven's too far away What are you, what are you waiting for? He says living is for today You gotta, you gotta settle for me now

You're breaking, my heart. I'll tear yours, apart. Don't stand to close to me, if life is a movie yours was made for TV. Oh my God we got a lot to do. They cover my eyes but I see right through. My baby means a lot to me. Let's leave here, us three. That's the way... I said cover me, and I said hey. That's the way... You flatter me when you call me crazy. You like your, gloss high. I'm semper, low-fi. Don't tell me what else is new, or I'll fatten your lip like some Big League Chew. Oh my God we got a lot to learn. You're sitting at your desk like there's time to burn. We're dying to slow to see. Look up, there's me. That's the way... I said cover me, and I said hey. That's the way... You flatter me when you call me crazy. I. Called. In. Sick. For. Work. To. Day. I called in sick for work today, I'm sick of work I would rather play. That's the way... I said cover me, and I said hey. That's the way... You flatter me when you call me crazy.

Spitting out teeth, swallowing blood / Don’t worry darling ‘cause when push comes to shove I’ll shove... whoa oh we’ll shove. Whoa is me and now, whoa am I / Don’t stop now darling or we’re both gonna cry... Yeah, we’ll cry. Keep calling me out and we’ll cry...Keep following me around, and we’ll cry...Keep pushing me down, and we’ll cry... So many times... So many tries... So many songs... Wanna cry out so long... Now I’m, spitting out teeth and, swallowing blood / Don’t worry darling ‘cause when push comes to shove we’ll shove... Oh we’ll shove. Keep calling me out and we’ll shove...Keep pushing me down, and we’ll shove...Keep following me around, and we’ll fight the world above...

about

Vandelay Los Angeles, California

Vandelay burst onto the scene like a drunken thief from a bank vault. Their debut LP "Mean What You Say" is full-frontal Garage Blues armed with live-wire harmonica solos, freight-train rhythm, and searing fuzz guitar lines. Imagine if The Black Keys and The Strokes got into a street fight then formed a band with the last men standing. You can't help but clap along (if that's what you're into). ... more
