Nickelback Dark Horse Lyrics
1.Something in Your Mouth

got to meet the hottie with the million dollar body
they say its over budget but you'd pay her just to touch it come
on
needs to hit the big screen and shoot a little love scene
if hollywood had called her she'd be gone before ya had her come
on

pretty little lady with the pretty pink thong
every sugar daddy hittin on her all night long
doesn't care about the money she could be with anybody
ain't it funny how the honey wanted you all along

(you naughty thing)
your ripping up the dance floor honey
(you naughty women)
you shake your ass around for everyone
(your such a mover)
i love the way you dance with anybody
(the way you swing)
and tease them all by sucking on your thumb
your so much cooler when you never pull it out
cuz you look so much cuter with something in your mouth

crafty little lip tricks
tattoos on her left hip
she bending as your spending
theres no ending it so baby come on
dressed up like a princess
bettin' that her skin smells better
than the scent of every flower in the desert come on

pretty little lady with the pretty pink thong
every sugar daddy hittin on her all night long.
doesn't care about the money she could be with anybody
ain't it funny how the honey wanted you all along

(you naughty thing)
your ripping up the dance floor honey
(you naughty women)
you shake your ass around for everyone
(your such a mover)
i love the way you dance with anybody
(the way you swing)
and tease them all by sucking on your thumb
your so much cooler when you never pull it out
cuz you look so much cuter with something in your mouth

she loves the night scene bar queen living for the fun
taking over every dance floor like shes the only one
in the spotlight all night dissing everyone
trying to look so innocent while sucking on her thumb
your so much cooler
when you never pull it out
so much cuter
with something in your mouth

(you naughty thing)
your ripping up the dance floor honey
(you naughty women)
you shake your ass around for everyone
i love the way you dance with anybody
(the way you swing)
and tease them all by sucking on your thumb
(you naughty thing)
your ripping up the dance floor honey
(you naughty women)
you shake that ass around for everyone
(your such a mover)
i love the way you dance with anybody
(the way you swing)
and tease them all by sucking on your thumb
your so much cooler when you never pull it out
cuz you look so much cuter with something in your


2.Burn it to the Ground

well it's midnight, damn right, we're wound up too tight
I've got a fist full of whiskey, the bottle just bit me
that shit makes me bat shit crazy
we've got no fear, no doubt, all in balls out

We're going off tonight
to kick out every light
to get anything that we want
To drink everything in sight
We're going till the world stops turning
while we burn it to the ground tonight

we're screaming like demons, swinging from the ceiling
I got a fist full of fifties, the tequilia just hit me
we got no class, no taste, no shirt, and shit faced
we got it lined up, shot down, firing back straight crown

We're going off tonight
to kick out every light
to get anything that we want
To drink everything in sight
We're going till the world stops turning
while we burn it to the ground tonight

ticking like a time bomb, drinking till the nights gone
well get you hands off of this glass, last call my ass
no chain, no lock, and this train won't stop
we got no friend, no tab, all in balls out

We're going off tonight
to kick out every light
to get anything that we want
To drink everything in sight
We're going till the world stops turning
while we burn it to the ground tonight

We're going off tonight
to kick out every light
to get anyything that we want
To drink everything in sight
We're going till the world stops turning
while we burn it to the ground tonight


3.Gotta Be Somebody

This time I wonder what it feels like
To find the one in this life
The one we all dream of
But dreams just aren't enough
So Ill be waiting for the real thing.
I'll know it by the feeling.
The moment when were meeting
Will play out like a scene straight off the silver screen
So I'll be holdin' my breath
Right up to the end
Until that moment when
I find the one that I'll spend forever with

'Cause nobody wants to be the last one there.
'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Someone to love with my life in their hands.
There's gotta be somebody for me like that.
'Cause nobody wants to go it on their own
And everyone wants to know theyre not alone.
Somebody else that feels the same somewhere.
There's gotta be somebody for me out there.

Tonight out on the street out in the moonlight
And damn it this feels too right
Its just like Deja Vu
Me standin' here with you
So Ill be holdin'my breath
Could this be the end?
Is it that moment when
I find the one that I spend forever with?

Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Someone to love with my life in their hands.
Theres gotta be somebody for me like that.
'Cause nobody wants to go it on their own
And everyone wants to know theyre not alone.
Is there somebody else that feels the same somewhere?
There's gotta be somebody for me out there.

You cant give up!
When you're Lookin for a diamond in the rough
Because you never know when it shows up
Make sure youre holdin' on
Cause it could be the one, the one youre waiting on
Cause nobody wants to be the last one there.
And everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Someone to love with my life in their hands.
There has gotta be somebody for me

Nobody wants to go it on their own
And everyone wants to know theyre not alone.
Is there somebody else that feels the same somewhere?
There 's gotta be somebody for me out there.
Nobody wants to be the last one there
And everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Is there somebody else that feels the same somewhere?
There has gotta be somebody for me out there.


4.I'd Come for You

Just One more moment, thats all thats needed.
Like wounded soldiers in need of healing.
Time to be honest, this time im bleeding
Please dont dwell on it, cause i didn't mean it

I cant believe i said i'd lay our love on the ground
But it doesnt matter cause i've made it up forgive me now
Everyday i spend away my souls inside out
Gotta be someway that i can make it up to you now, somehow.

By now you'd know that I'd come for you
No one but you, yes i'd come for you
But only if you told me to
And i'd fight for you
I'd lie, it's true
Give my life for you
You know i'd always come for you

I was blindfolded, but now im seeing
My mind was closing, now i'm believing
I finally know what just what it means to let someone in
To see the side of me that no one does or ever will
So if your ever lost and find yourself all alone
I'd search forever just to bring you home,
Here and now this I vow

By now you'd know that I'd come for you
No one but you, yes i'd come for you
But only if you told me to
And i'd fight for you
I'd lie, it's true
Give my life for you
You know i'd always come for you
You know i'd always come for you

No matter what gets in my way
As long as there's still life in me
No matter what, remember
you know i'll always come for you

Yes i'd come for you, no one but you,
Yes i'd come for you
But only if you told me to
And i'd fight for you
I'd lie, it's true
Give my life for you
You know i'd always come for you

No matter what gets in my way
As long as there's still life in me
No matter what, remember
you know i'll always come for you
I'd crawl acroos this world for you
Do anything you want me to
No matter what, remember
you know i'll always come for you
You know i'll always come for you


5.Next Go Round

i wanna do it till the sun comes up
till we're both so good and sweaty we can't stand up
i wanna do it till we're both about to drop
as long as we're caught in together we're never gonna stop.

i wanna go until the neighbors all complain
cause they heard somebody screamin and they think we're both in
pain
i wanna go so long your parents think you died
there gonna call the cops the CIA and then the FBI

Yeah, we're gonna love it when the lights go down
hold on here we go
yeah, we're gonna go untill our legs give out
round and round we go
yeah, we're gonna do it hangin upside down
up and down we go
yeah, we're getting ready for the next go round
round and round we go

shut the windows lock the doors unplug the phone
for all intents and purposes there aint no body home
then we can do it till the batteries are gone
and borrow two from the tv remote to throw this thing back on

i wanna cover you with jello in the tub
we can roll around for hours without ever comin up
i want you naked with your favorite heels on
(?) across my ass and ride me (?)

Yeah, we're gonna love it when the lights go down
hold on here we go
yeah, we're gonna go untill our legs give out
round and round we go
yeah, we're gonna do it hangin upside down
up and down we go
yeah, we're getting ready for the next go round
round and round we go

Yeah, we're gonna love it when the lights go down
hold on here we go
yeah, we're gonna go untill our legs give out
round and round we go
yeah, we're gonna do it hangin upside down
up and down we go
yeah, we're getting ready for the next go round
round and round we go


6.Just to Get High

He was my best friend, I tried to help him,
But he traded everything, for suffering,
And found himself alone.
I watched the lying, turn into hiding,
With scars on both his lips, his fingertips...
Were melted to the bone.

But I can still remember what his face looked like,
When I found him in an alley in the middle of the night.
Tell me what you know!
Tell me what you gone and done now!
Tell me what you know!
Tell me what you gone and done now!
Gonna do the trick, get it over with,
You're better off...
To take all you've got and burn it on the spot,
To get high-igh, igh, igh (high-igh, igh, igh).

Three days no sleeping, he gave up eating,
He sold his mother's rings, she said nothing,
And pretended not to know...
He started stealing, to supply the feeling,
Found out he pulled a knife, on someone's wife...
And held it to her throat.

But I can still remember what his face looked like,
When I found him in an alley in the middle of the night.
Tell me what you know!
Tell me what you gone and done now!
Tell me what you know!
Tell me what you gone and done now!
Gonna do the trick, get it over with,
You're better off...
To take all that you've got and burn it on the spot,
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh (high-igh, igh, igh).
Tell me what did, where you gone and hid?
Show me...!
What you really want, was it what you got?
Slowly...!
Circle in the drain, throw it all away,
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh (high-igh, igh, igh).
High-igh, igh...oooooh!

Tell me what you know!
Tell me what you gone and done now!
Tell me what you know!
Tell me what you gone and done now!
Gonna do the trick, get it over with,
You're better off...
To take all that you've got and burn it on the spot,
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh (high-igh, igh, igh).
Tell me what did, where you gone and hid?
Show me...!
What you really want, was it what you got?
Slowly...!
Circle in the drain, throw it all away,
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh, igh
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh, igh
Circle in the drain, throw it all away,
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh, igh.


7.Never Gonna Be Alone

Time, is going by, so much faster than I,
And I'm starting to regret not spending all of here with you.
Now I'm, wondering why, I've kept this bottled inside,
So I'm starting to regret not selling all of it to you.
So if I haven't yet, I've gotta let you know...

Never gonna be alone!
From this moment on,
If you ever feel like letting go,
I won't let you fall...
Never gonna be alone!
I'll hold you 'til the hurt is gone.

And now, as long as I can, I'm holding on with both hands,
'Coz forever I believe that there's nothing I could need but
you,
So if I haven't yet, I've gotta let you know...

Never gonna be alone!
From this moment on,
If you ever feel like letting go,
I won't let you fall...
When all hope is gone,
I know that you can carry on.
We're gonna see the world out,
I'll hold you 'til the hurt is gone.

You've gotta live every single day,
Like it's the only one, what if tomorrow never comes?
Don't let it slip away,
Could be our only one, you know it's only just begun.
Every single day,
Maybe our only one, what if tomorrow never comes?
Tomorrow never comes...

Time, is going by, so much faster than I,
And I'm starting to regret not telling all of this to you.

Never gonna be alone!
From this moment on,
If you ever feel like letting go,
I won't let you fall.
When all hope is gone,
I know that you can carry on.
We're gonna see the world out,
I'll hold you 'til the hurt is gone.

I'm gonna be there always,
I won't be missing a word all day,
I'm gonna be there always,
I won't be missing a word all day.


8.Shakin' Hands

She had her eyes on the prize as the girl next door
You grow up quick when you grow up poor
It's the only way to LA that she knows
The Hollywood pose:teeth, tips, and drawers
It didn't take her long to leave the boulevard
So many fights start quick with that credit card
She'd try anything once
Cause anything goes
It never comes easy when you're digging for gold

Well she ain't no Cinderella
When she's getting undressed
'Cause she rocks it like the naughty wicked witch of the west
Far too pretty to be giving it cheap
That's why she's making six figures working three days a week
Yeah she'd even break a promise in the promise-land
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands
She'd take your money make it twice as hot as anyone can
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands

I doubt she'd even let the devil buy a little black book
Said we'd all probably fall off if anyone got a look
Every aimless player is a favorite friend
B/c they all taste the fame in the back of a vans
A congressman would call her every once in a while
Got the school girl skirt on the top of the pile
She'd done everyone once
And everyone knows
You got to get a little dirty when you're digging for gold

Well she ain't no Cinderella
When she's getting undressed
'Cause she rocks it like the naughty wicked witch of the west
Far to pretty to be giving it cheap
That's why she's making six figures working three days a week
Yeah she'd even break a promise in the promise-land
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands
She'd take your money make it twice is hot as anyone can
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands

Well someone spilled the beans and now her name's in the press
Tough to keep it all a secret when you're one of the best
The judge is going easy because he paid for her breasts
Yeah he loves his naughty wicked witch of the west

Far to pretty to be giving it cheap
That's why she's making six figures working three days a week
Yeah she'd even break a promise in the promise-land
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands
She'd take your money make it twice is hot as anyone can
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands
She'd take your money make it twice is hot as anyone can
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands


9.S.E.X.

You know there's a dirty word,
Never gonna say it first,
No it's just a thought that never crosses my mind.
Maybe in the parking lot,
Better bring your friend along,
Better rock together than just one at a time.

S is for the simplety.
E is for the ecstasy.
X is just to mark the spot,
Because that's the one you really want.

(Yes!) Sex is always the answer, it's never a question,
'Coz the answer's yes, oh the answers (Yes)
Not just a suggestion, if you ask a question,
Then it's always yes. Yeeeah!

I'm loving what you wanna wear,
I wonder what's up under there?
Wonder if I'll ever have it under my tongue?
I'll love to try to set you free,
I love you all over me.
Love hearin' the sound you make the second you're done.

S is for the simplety.
E is for the ecstasy.
X is just to mark the spot,
Because that's the one you really want.

(Yes!) Sex is always the answer, it's never a question,
'Coz the answer's yes, oh the answers (Yes).
Not just a suggestion, if you ask a question,
Then it's always yes. Yeeeah! (YES)

S is for the simplety.
E is for the ecstasy.
X is just to mark the spot,
Because that's the one you really waaaant.

(Yes!) Sex is always the answer, it's never a question,
'Coz the answer's yes, oh the answer's (Yes).
Not just a suggestion, if you ask a question,
Then it's always yes. Yeeeah!

(Yes!) Sex is always the answer, it's never a question,
'Coz the answer's yes, oh the answer's (Yes).
Not just a suggestion, if you ask a question,
Then it's always yes. Yeeeah! (YES)


10.If Today Was Your Last Day

My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day's a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
If today was your last day

Against the grain should be a way of life
What's worth the prize is always worth the fight
Every second counts 'cause there's no second try
So live like you'll never live it twice
Don't take the free ride in your own life

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce of memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you're dreamin' of?
Swear of the noun, the God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day

If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it's never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are
So do whatever it takes
'Cause you can't rewind a moment in this life
Let nothin' stand in your way
Cause the hands of time are never on your side
If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?

Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce of memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you're dreamin' of?
Swear of the noun, the God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day


11.This Afternoon

Looking like another Bob Marley day
Hitting from the bong like a diesel train
And I'm down with hanging out this afternoon

We got weeds in the back yard 4 feet tall
Cheech and Chong would probably have smoked them all
So am I on the couch this afternoon

Beer bottles laying on the kitchen floor
If we take 'em all back we can buy some more
So I doubt we'll go without this afternoon

Better hang on if your tagging along
Cos we'll be doing this till 6 in the morning
Nothing wrong with going all night long
Time to put the brakes on doesn't matter when you got to
Get up, go out
Me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down
We'll do it all again
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon

The landlord says I should buy a tent
But he can kiss my ass cos i paid my rent
So I doubt, he'll kick me out this afternoon

Down on the corner in a seedy bar
Jukebox cranking out the CCR
Had a few, just whos with you this afternoon

Better hang on if your tagging along
Cos we'll be doing this till 6 in the moring
Nothing wrong with going all night long
Time to put the brakes on doesn't matter when you got to
Get up, go out
Me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down
We'll do it all again
Get up, go out
Me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down
We'll do it all again
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon

Wear a wristwatch, and alarm clock to see what time it ends
From the moment I wake up, I just love being with my friends
We barely get by, but have the best times and hope it never ends
We drink all day until we fall down, so we can do it all again

Its the human race
If we were living on the edge taking too much space
So I'll doubt I'll figure out just what to do
But kicking around hanging out this afternoon

Better hang on if your tagging along
Cos we'll be doing this till 6 in the moring
Nothing wrong with going all night long
Time to put the brakes on doesn't matter when you got to
Get up, go out
Me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down
We'll do it all again
Get up, go out
Me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down
We'll do it all again

Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
