Evil Friends

Portugal. The Man Evil Friends Lyrics
1.Plastic Soldiers

Everything carries weight
Everything is the same
Within us, all together

Everything carries weight
Everything is the same
And we are all together

I can't keep my head up
I'd like to stay by my friends
Stay by my friends
But I can't keep my head up
I can't seem to keep my head

Could it be we got lost in the summer?
Well I know you know that it's over
But you're still in
Treading water

But you're still in
Treading water

I'd hate to seem so shallow
I'd like to get deeper in
Swim deeper in
But I can't find the water
I can't seem to find my way

Could it be we got lost in the summer?
Well I know you know that it's over
But you're still in
Treading water

But you're still in

I can't keep my head above ground
(I can't keep my head above ground, can't keep my head)
I can't keep my head above ground
(I can't keep my head above ground, can't keep my head)
I can't keep

But you're still in
Treading water

Could it be we got lost in the summer?
Well I know you know that it's over
But you're still in
Treading water

You can drift along
You've got the time
The rest of us will live and die
Like plastic soldiers
Only growing older

3.Evil Friends

Your mama's got nothing on me
Your daddy's got nothing on me
And the world that sleeps and its through the sea
Its got nothing on me

No stars got nothing on me
Your son's got nothing on me
And the fool who sees its the thief that needs
Has got nothing on me

You know its not because the light here gets brighter
And its not that I'm evil
I got a friend in the devil

But I can't even be your friend
I can't even be your friend
I can't even be your friend

I could get so wound up
But I'd feel alright
And I'd like it to rest
Yea that'd be nice
When I shouldn't do it, I should do it
What ya think's got nothing to do with this
Before you were born, I was already sittin'

Yea, yea yea
When I get to work, its up
When I'm working out
And I like it too down,
I just shout it out
I may not have it all, but the rest will do
When its up in the kids, gonna do with you
Before you were born, I was already sittin'

Its not because the light here is brighter
And its not that I'm evil
I just don't like to pretend
That I could ever be your friend

Cause you don't listen so good
I can hum it out
Na na na na na na na na
I know I shouldn't do it
I just do it
And what ya think's got nothing to do with it
Before you were born, I was already sittin'

Its not because the light here is brighter
And its not that I'm evil
I just don't like to pretend
That I could ever be your friend
I could never be your friend
I never needed a friend
I don't wanna be friends

You'll never find a friend like me


4.Modern Jesus

Come on in
Take a seat next to me
You know we got
We got what you need
We may be liars preaching to choirs
But we can
We can sell your dreams

You don't need sympathy
They got a pill for everything
Just take that dark cloud
Ring it out to wash it down, but

Don't pray for us
We don't need no modern Jesus
To roll with us
The only rule we need is never
Giving up
The only faith we have is faith in us

We're the ones who start little fires
Yet they burn out
But when they're on the rise
They can't help but shine

And when the wave approaches
Take our ashes to the ocean
Who cares if hell awaits?
We're having drinks at heaven's gate

Don't pray for us
We don't need no modern Jesus
To roll with us
The only rule we need is never
Giving up
The only faith we have is faith in us

We know that we're helpless
At least we always assume
But we don't need to prove nothing to you
Let's keep the cool
You don't need to feel blue
Cause we won't sell you nothing
You can't use

Don't pray for us
We don't need no modern Jesus
To roll with us
The only rule we need is never
Giving up
The only faith we have is faith in us


5.Hip Hop Kids


6.Atomic Man

You're feeling tired I know three is a crowd
but if I bring her on the ready they'll be fine for now
Man I can't help it I'm just always in the middle
leave the bottle in the evening hang with demons on the weekend

After you I don't know what I believe in
After you, hell should be easy
After you I don't know what I believe in
After you, hell should be easier

(Gotta, gotta, gotta get out if you wanna get it)

Follow down to the red bouncing ball
as you bounce round the galaxy came back to us all
A little bit of nerve and the outer space
its gotta destroy before it creates

After you I don't know what I believe in
After you, hell should be easy
After you I don't know what I believe in
After you, hell will be easier

I'm the golden baby boy into the center
Mother was a gun and I put nature to the beggars
Always talking but the kids never listen
They die in the eve and become demons for the weekend

After you I don't know what I believe in
After you, hell should be easy
After you I don't know what I believe in
After you, hell will be easier

Tides that take the sand
I'm atomic man, I'm the moon that pulls the tides that take the
sand
I'm atomic man, I'm the moon that pulls the tides that take the
sand
I'm atomic man, I'm the moon that pulls the tides that take the
sand
I'm atomic man, I'm the moon that pulls the tides that take the
sand
I'm atomic man, I'm the moon that pulls the tides that take the
sand
I'm atomic man, I'm the moon that pulls the tides that take the
sand


7.Sea of Air

It's came the day we found a sea of air
When we went back nothing was there
It towered so tall it nearly left the ground
Still when we looked nothing was found

There was nothing up there no, no nothing at all
Nothing but space nothing but ground
All the things I want and the things I need
When there's nothing but stars looking back at me

But I'll be brave I'll be brave I'll be brave
When the timing comes around I'll be brave yeah I'll be brave
Just let me go now
Let me go now

We've got the whole world hanging there
In our little sea of air
We've got the whole world hanging there
In our little sea of air
We've got the whole world just hanging now
We've got no seed of doubt
We've got the whole world hanging there

When you talk to god about suicide
When you never hear back I hope you're still alive
And the part of you that never cared
Well you can leave it here in the sea of air

But I'll be brave I'll be brave I'll be brave
When the timing comes around I'll be brave yeah I'll be brave
Just let me go now
Let me go now

We've got the whole world hanging there
In our little sea of air
We've got the whole world hanging there
In our little sea of air
We've got the whole world just hanging now
We've got no seed of doubt
We've got the whole world hanging there

In our little
In our little sea of air
In our little
In our little sea of air

We've got the whole world just hanging there
In our little sea of air
We've got the whole world hanging theeeere


8.Waves

You can't fight a war with nobody to fight back
But if we get to digging to the bottom of the stack
We'll sell it to the youth and you never know, maybe
You'll get back home and you'll see your baby, oh

We'll just act like we care

All we're needing is a reason
It don't need to be clear
Singing songs to the news
It can play to their fears
Someone's gotta' die and you don't have to love him
But the military's still got more in its budget, oh

We always need more next year

No one cares about the waves
At the bottom of the ocean
And at the bottom of the ocean
It's always blue
No one will remember
Cause nothing lasts forever
And everybody's looking
For somebody to use

When you don't bring them home and the war hasn't ended
There's still money there and that money needs spending
The powers that be, we gotta' do what we do
If they never know it than they'll never feel used, oh
Like I often do

To all the pretty girls out there looking for heartache
Crying, 'All I wanted is to be your baby'
And all the pretty girls out there living with heartache
Crying cause they're never gonna' see their baby, oh

We just act like we care

No one cares about the waves
At the bottom of the ocean
And at the bottom of the ocean
It's always blue
No one will remember
Cause nothing lasts forever
And everybody's looking
For somebody to use

No one will remember
Cause nothing lasts forever
The world is always changing
And it's always blue
And it's always blue

11.Purple Yellow Red and Blue

All I
Wanna do is
Live in ectascy
I know what's best for me
I can't help it
It's this hopeless itch
I just wanna feel (wanna feel)
Purple Yellow Red and Blue

(Oh/Ah)'s

When I grow up I wanna be
A movie star or on TV
Cuz workin' just don't work for me
But I can't focus feeling hopeless
So I'll just sit back, try to relieve


When I grow up I wanna be
A rich-kid born celebrity
It's not greed, but necessity
Now I don't focus on the hopeless
When I look out it's only for me


I just
Wanna be evil
I just
Wanna be evil
Wanna be evil
Wanna be evil
I just wanna be evil

I just
Wanna be evil
I just
Wanna be evil
Wanna be evil
Wanna be evil
Purple Yellow Red and Blue

(Oh/Ah)'s

All that I needed
Is something to believe in
Because everything just falls in place like that

All that I needed
Is something to believe in
Because everything just falls in place like that
