We Started Nothing
Album - 19 maggio 2008 - Debaser id 488721

Fed up with your indigestion
Swallow words one by one
Folks got high at a quarter to five
Don't you feel you're growing up undone

Nothing but the local DJ
Who said he had some songs to play
What went down from this fooling around
Gave hope and a brand new day

Imagine all the girls
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
And the boys
Ah ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
And the strings
Eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee
And the drums, the drums, the drums
The drums, the drums, the drums
The drums, the drums, the drums
The drums, the drums, the drums
Oh

Nothing was the same again
All about where and when
Blowing our minds in a life unkind
You gotta love the BPM
When his work was all but done
Remembering how this begun
We wore his love like a hand in a glove
There's a future plays it all night long

And nothing but the girls
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
And the boys
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
And the strings
Eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee
And the drums, the drums, the drums
The drums, the drums, the drums
The drums, the drums, the drums
The drums, the drums, the drums
The drums, the drums, the drums
The drums, the drums, the drums
The drums, the drums

Imagine all the girls
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
And the boys
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
And the strings
Eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee
And the drums
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, oh

All the girls
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
And the boys
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
And the strings
Eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee
And the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums

Four little words just to get me along
It's a difficulty and I'm biting on my
tongue and I
I keep stalling, keeping me together
People around gotta find something to say now

Holding back, everyday the same
Don't wanna be a loner
Listen to me, oh no
I never say anything at all
But with nothing to consider they forget my name
(ame, ame, ame)

They call me 'Hell'
They call me 'Stacey'
They call me 'her'
They call me 'Jane'
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name

They call me 'Quiet Girl'
But I'm a riot
Mary, jo, lisa
Always the same
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name

I miss the catch if they throw me the ball
I'm the last chick standing up against the wall
Keep up, falling, these heels they keep me boring
Getting clamped up and sitting on the fence now

So alone all the time and I
Lock myself away
Listen to me, Oh No!
Although I'm dressed up, out and all with
Everything considered they forget my name
(ame, ame, ame)

They call me 'Hell'
They call me 'Stacey'
They call me 'Her'
They call me 'Jane'
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name

They call me 'Quiet Girl'
But I'm a riot
Mary, jo, lisa
Always the same
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name

Are you calling me darling?
Are you calling me bird?
Are you calling me darling?
Are you calling me bird?

You keep playing me like a fruit machine
Puttin' in change systematically
Winning streak that you had over me
It's turned into your broken tragedy

Turn your pockets out onto the street
Now you see you've spent it all on me!
You see my true colours out of synch
Now your skin is a pair of sympathies

You've hit the bottom one hundred times before
Now feel the fever as I leave you wanting more
You thought you could turn and walk away
Taking chances that weren't yours to take

Well I don't think so my foolish boy
Watch the next one taking all the joy
Hold me, nudge me, spinning me around
Where's the money?
Can't hear that clinking sound.

Ka-ching, Ka-ching
Ka-ching, Ka-ching
Ka-ching, Ka-ching
Ka-ching, Ka-ching

You keep playing me like a fruit machine
Overstretch your generosity
For our band, it's leading you astray
The little we hadâ?¦
You've thrown it all away!

Go! Go! Go! (Yeah you're on a role)
Go! Go! Go! (Yeah you're on a low)
Go! Go! Go!

You find it hard to stop it yeah
You're running like a steam train
Oh I like the way that you do that
Where's the money?
Can't hear that clinking sound.

Ka-ching, Ka-ching
Ka-ching, Ka-ching

Go!
You-keep-play-ing-me-like-a-fruit-mach-ine
You-keep-play-ing-me-like-a-fruit-mach-ine
You-keep-play-ing-me-like-a-fruit-mach-ine
You-keep-play-ing-me-like-a-fruit-mach-ine

Ker-ching, Ker-ching, oh!
Ker-ching, Ker-ching
Ker-ching, Ker-ching

Oh, you find it hard to stop it yeah
You're running like a steam train

Ker-ching, Ker-ching
Ker-ching, Ker-ching

You-keep-playing-me-like-a-fruit-mach-ine!

Don't you be a traffic light
With all things said
You turn to red
Don't you be a traffic light

Don't you be a round-a-bout
Not another round-a-bout
We've come this far
Yet back to the start
Don't you be a round-a-bout

Oh now baby don't miss read the signs
If you turn the key then things will turn out fine

Let's not have a break down
Not another breakdown
You're on your own a long way from home
Let's not have a breakdown

Don't miss read the signs
If you had just turned the key
Then things would have turned out fine

You're pushing me, you're breaking
Over taking me you're racing
First placing me not chasing me back home

Don't let me down

Hey!
Shut up and let me go
This hurts I told you so
For the last time you will kiss my lips
Now shut up and let me go
Your jeans were once so clean
I bet you changed your wardrobe since we met

Now oh so easily you'r over me
Gone is love
It's you that ought to be holding me
I'm not containable
This turns up it's not sustainable

I ain't freakin
I ain't fakin this
I ain't freakin
I ain't fakin this
I ain't freakin
I ain't fakin this
Shut up and let me go
Hey!

Shut up and let me go
This hurts but I can't show
For the last time you had me in bits
Now shut up and let me go
For fear of leaving in regret
I changed this one when we first met

Now oh so easily you're over me
Gone is love
It's me that ought to be moving on
You're not adorable
I was something unignorable

I ain't freakin
I ain't fakin this
I ain't freakin
I ain't fakin this
I ain't freakin
I ain't fakin this
Shut up and let me go
Hey!

Oh love, hold this
Hey!

Hey!
Shut up and let me go
This hurts I told you so
For the last time you will kiss my lips
Now shut up and let me go
Hey!

The room's green
It's got writing on the wall
It's got one chair
It's kinda small

Dirty shoes
Running past the door.
And then you go round
Beat yourself up,

Ten minutes to go,
And I wanna go home
Ten minutes to go,
Yeah, I've got to go home
Ten minutes to go,
And the air, it don't feel clear
Everybody disappear, you're
In it on your own

Fourteen,
Intimidated, and she's just fourteen
She's getting pulled from the opposite side,
Until it breaks down
Blame it on the wrong crowd
Stay, more make up, hair dye

Ten minutes to go,
You know she should have gone home
Ten minutes to go,
Yeah you should have gone home
Ten minutes to go,
And the air, it don't feel clear,
Everybody disappear, you're
In it on your own

You can't sleep,
You know it's over but you just can't sleep
You've gotta face it,
Gotta go outside
And do the day-walk
Living with the lights off,
Ain't nobody home

Ten minutes to go,
You know you wanna stay home
Ten minutes to go,
Yeah you wanna stay home
Ten minutes to go,
And the air, it don't feel clear,
Everybody disappear, you're
In it on your own

Keep your head
Keep your head
Just keep your head
Keep yourâ?¦
â?¦head

You wanna keep - ah
Keep it on the right side
If you know your gonna be coming off
It's gonna make you open your eyes
I said, now, open your eyes
You know it
You wanna keep - ah
Keep it on the low side
Yes you gonna see ten minutes to go
And your keeping it heads up
Keep it low, be right
Push it kinda low
So, open your eyes.

You say it's not what you do,
It's what you're thinkin of
Well I think it's just an excuse
It's what you put across
And I don't wanna be the one
Only overjoyed
Yeah I don't wanna be the one
Makin all the noise
Yeah I don't wanna be the one

So make sure you're thinkin it through
You've let me down again
Offer me somethin
I know you really meant
Cuz I don't wanna the one
Only overjoyed
Yeah I don't wanna be the one
Makin all the noise
Yeah I don't wanna be the one
Hey!

What you gonna offer now?

I don't wanna be the one
Only overjoyed
Yeah I don't wanna be the one
Makin all the noise
Yeah I don't wanna be the one
Hey!

What you gonna offer now?
What you gonna offer now?
What you gonna offer now?

This was not my idea
Don't you keep me waitin
This was not my idea
Don't you keep me waitin
This was not my idea
Don't you keep me waitin

You never alter, you're always you
Everything's breaking, but I don't care
Smash the rest up, burn it down
Put us in the corner 'cause we're into ideas

Take these edges, they're inside out
No one will notice, they're looking elsewhere
We can be honest, we call it off
We've got the choice if it all goes wrong

We walk
We walk
We walk
We wa-alk

You see the changes in things that come
It's how you deal with it when switching off
Make a decision, a precondition
We've got the choice if it all goes wrong

We walk
We walk
We walk
We wa-alk

(Bridge)
Where nothing makes you feel good... (x8)

We've got the choice if it all goes wrong
We walk
We walk (if it all goes wrong)
We walk
We wa-alk (if it all goes wrong)

We walk
We walk (it makes you feel good, it makes you feel god)
We walk
We wa-alk (when it all goes wrong)

We walk
We walk
We walk
We wa-alk

No one dropped of waiting in despair
Every time I go there's no one there
So tell me where's the soul, oh! where's the soul
Submit it's all locked up, so hard to loose control

I started nothing, I wish I didn't x4
Wait on a new gonna bet on 1 today
How it's only all of us, if and buts falling dead
Tell me where's the soul, oh! Where's the soul
If it's been a whole day it's time to let it go

I started nothing, I wish I didn't x4
Now, often we keep givin' in with what they say
We're too open when we're only shown 1 way
And with the offer open opportunity to do
To make a mighty step no insoles in my shoes

I started nothing I wish I didn't x4
Water's cold, ice is just a face skin deep
All you know, ice is just a face skin deep
Water's cold, ice is just a face skin deep
All you know, ice is just a face skin deep
Water's cold, ice is just a face skin deep
All you know, ice is just a face skin deep
