about

Inspired by Barry Goldman's stuff, I wanted an old school punk sounding song. I dunno how old school it sounds, but I think I got at least a little bit of the punk vibe with the energy and delibertely shoddy bass tone. Kinda hard to emulate punk drums with bongos though. :P

lyrics

Verse 1:
Black frills
Cheap thrills
Need another way to waste my time

Steep hills
Vague chills
Need another way to lose my mind

Chorus:
Nothing to gain and everything to lose
You say it works, but do you have the proof?
Nothing to gain and everything to lose
I want both, so I don't have to choose

*Post-Chorus*

Verse 2:
Dull nerves
Sharp curves
Need another way to keep me sane

Big swerve
Deserved
Need another way to hide my shame

Chorus:
Nothing to gain and everything to lose
You say it works, but do you have the proof?
Nothing to gain and everything to lose
I want both, so I don't have to choose

*post-chorus, solo*

Chorus:
Nothing to gain and everything to lose
You say it works, but do you have the proof?
Nothing to gain and everything to lose
I want both, so I don't have to choose

Nothing to gain and everything to lose
You say it works, but do you have the proof?
Nothing to gain and everything to lose
I want both, so I don't have to choose

*post-chorus*
