Tyrannosaurus Hives

The Hives Tyrannosaurus Hives Lyrics
1.Uptight

People its not alright, feeling too uptight
But when we're faced with this we gotta get going through the
night
Too much is surround, sitting in holy ground
But whatever you're faced with tonight you're dance to whatever
to your favorite sound

You gotta be there to know what i'm talking about
You gotta be there to know what i'm singing about
Ooooohhh

Just do the things you want, just do the things you need
Time flies like this and we gotta get it going indeed
All the damn people flood our stream and we're just in a dream
So tonight you're best to get together for future of the scene

You gotta be there to know what i'm talking about
You gotta be there to know what i'm singing about
Ooooohhh

Oh yeah!
Oh yeah!

Tonight you're dance to whatever to your favorite sound
Tonight you're dance to whatever to your favorite sound
Tonight you're dance to whatever to your favorite sound


2.The Hives Meet The Norm

Square peg, round hole (x4)
(square peg, square peg, square peg, square peg!)
Whoo!

Push... Push and shove
Push... Push and shove

Square peg, round hole (x4)
(square peg, square peg, square peg, square peg!)
Whoo!

Push... Push and shove
Push... Push and shove

Square peg, round hole (x4)
Square peg, round hole (x4)
(square peg, square peg, square peg, square peg!)
Whoo!


3.Walk Idiot Walk

Lyricist:Randy Fitzsimmons

Well, is it true what they say about it?
They say it's new, but I have to doubt it
And then they tell you everything about it
Had enough?

I got some people saying this way
I got some people saying that way
I got some people saying there's no way
Ain't it tough?

See the idiot walk, see the idiot talk
See the idiot chalk up his name on the blackboard
See the robot walk, see the robot talk
See the robot write up his name on the ballot
They say, this is all I need to get by
The truth is baby, it's a lie

Well is it true what they say about it?
You ought to do what I do and doubt it
He won and know he's gonna do something about it
Ain't it sad?

And if you don't wanna feel like a putz
Collect the clues and connect the dots
You see the pattern that is bursting your bubble
And it's bad

See the idiot walk, see the idiot talk
See the idiot chalk up his name on the blackboard
They say, this is all I need to get by
The truth is baby, it's a lie
It's a, it's a lie

This is what it boils down to

If you review the winning combination
Body at work and a mind on vacation
Who had the brain where it started to sink in?
It was you

You've seen the idiot walk, seen the idiot talk
But you never learned nothing and nothing isn't over
See the robot walk, see the robot talk
Still you never learned nothing and nothing isn't over
They say, this is all I need to get by
The truth is baby, it's a lie


4.Two-Timing Touch And Broken Bones

Lyricist:Randy Fitzsimmons

It's official, full judicial
Ends in physical, this I know
Best keep quiet
You don't listen to me anyway

You're gonna lose
And it's gonna show
It's far to late
To avoid it so

Ohh, what's that sum?
It added up to nothin'
'Cause you're much too dumb

Two timin' touch and broken bones
Two timin' touch and broken bones
Two timin' touch and broken bones
Two timin' touch and broken bones

Bad decision
Repetition
Should you listen
Oh, let it go, ooh

Best say somethin'
When your thinkin' that you'll get it back
But, it's too late to avoid it so
It's far too late and I gotta know

Ohh, what's that sum?
It added up to nothin'
'Cause they're much you dumb

Two timin' touch and broken bones
Two timin' touch and broken bones
Two timin' touch and broken bones
Two timin' touch and broken bones

Two timin' touch and broken bones
Two timin' touch and broken bones
Two timin' touch and broken bones
Two timin' touch and broken bones


5.Love In Plaster

Lyricist:Randy Fitzsimmons

I really thought
That we had somethin' movin' faster
Than love in plaster
I really thought
That we had somethin' growin' stronger
But it grew no longer
I thought this time
Yeah

I really thought
That we had somethin' set in motion
More than foul devotion
I really thought
That we had somethin' out of the ordinary
More than stationary
I thought this time
What we had you and I

Said, 'I'm losin' my mind'
Yeah I got bit all the time
And I'm better off dead
'Cause it was all in my head
Now it's all lost
It's all gone
Don't I know it

I really thought
That we had somethin' more than a
Bore
I really thought
That we had somethin' more than a violation
Of my imagination
I thought this time
What we had you and I

Said, 'I'm losin' my mind'
Yeah I got bit all the time
And I'm better off dead
'Cause it was all in my head
Now it's all lost
It's all gone
Don't I know it
And I'm better off dead

I really thought
It would work out
I learned it couldn't 'cause somehow
We couldn't get along
We wouldn't get along

A little somethin' on the side
Would make you feel more worthwhile
You think I won't be long
You couldn't be more wrong
I thought this time
What we had, you and I

Said, 'I'm losin' my mind'
Yeah I got bit all the time
And I'm better off dead
'Cause it was all in my head

I said, 'I'm losin' my mind'
Yeah I got bit all the time
And I'm better off dead
'Cause it was all in my head
Now it's all lost
And it's all gone
Don't I know it


6.Diabolic Scheme

Lyricist:Randy Fitzsimmons

Haa aee
Whao
Ahh woo

Alive dead
I was inside your head
(Scheme, scheme)
I had time well, spent, I got your mind well bent
Snuck back into shade
(Scheme, scheme)
Ooo
You searched the globe for them perfect looks
And you searched for answers in all your books
(Scheme, scheme)
And finally by diabolic ascent, here I am?
(Scheme, scheme)

Said it's just a diabolic
A diabolic scheme
(Diabolic scheme)
Said it's just a diabolic
A diabolic scheme
(Diabolic scheme )

That's me all right like purity white, and like viciousness
black
(Scheme, scheme)
I give a little then I take it back
Can you take it? Ooo
Can you take it? Yeah! ooo
(Scheme, scheme)
So what's the attraction? The suckers sing
Profolic depth or static cling?
(Scheme, scheme)
Well from greatness to greatness is where I span
You have me for a moment grab on while you can
(Scheme, scheme)

Said it's just a diabolic
A diabolic scheme
(Diabolic scheme)
Said it's just a diabolic
A diabolic scheme
(Diabolic scheme)
Haaaeee

Diabolic
Diabolic scheme
(Scheme, scheme)
(Scheme, scheme)
(Scheme, scheme)
(Scheme, scheme)
Ooo, ooo, ooo
Ooo, ooo, ooo
Thank you


7.A Little More For Little You

Lyricist:Niklas Almqvist

You'll never get it right
They got a hundred lies for you
And when they pass them out
You gotta give or take a few

And be just the same
A head in the crowd
But behind the game
Oh well, you never can tell

You're such a clever kid
But I'll see what's wrong with you
It's all you ever did
Take lies and believe them true

Knew it all along
Another act and a truth gone wrong
Oh no, it ain't my Hollywood

I went on strike
When the union said, 'I would'
Had a sign in my hand
'Cause the times were no good
All this time they ever told me to
Was to get a little lie to ring a little true

I went on the strike
When the union said, 'I would'
Had a sign in my hand
Cause the times were no good
All this time they ever told me too
Was to get a little more for a little you

And maybe you're alright
And maybe I don't have a clue
Yea, maybe black is white
And maybe black is white too

But it's all the same
You don't get the picture you're getting framed
You took the bait
And now it's too late

You didn't turn out right
Just look at you
You had the biggest plans
But no way to carry through

It was all an act
And now you can't stick to the facts
Oh no, but it ain't my Hollywood

I went on strike
When the union said, 'I would'
Had a sign in my hand
'Cause the times were no good
All this time they ever told me too
Was to get a little lie to ring a little true

You spent your time
Just like they said you should now
Those marks on your face
Just don't look any good
And all this time all that they told you to
Was get a little more for your little you

Aah
Said, 'I would'
No good
Told me too
Little true

Said, 'I would'
No good
Told me too
It ain't my Hollywood


8.Missing Link

Lyricist:Randy Fitzsimmons

Hey oh hey hey

Oh, if you give up to reason, you follow every whim
Loose your mind before it could even begin
Missing link it might be what you got so won't you give it a
shot

So you do it all the same and you do it all again
You wake up in the morning and you ain't got a friend
Your boss is coming down on you and you can't pay the rent
And then back into trouble again

Missing link has got you beaten battered bruised
If you had a problem, now it's two
Missing link he took you down a notch so won't you give it a
shot

You're always under pressure
It's harder to be sane when
You wake up and you realize that every day is the same
You can't go back to work and now you know just who to blame
Ain't it a shame
Back into trouble again

Ahh, missing link I know you tried to cut him loose
But missing link is still a part o' you
Think you lost him but it ain't exactly showing
Got you by the neck and now there ain't no way of knowing
Pretend you got a will but you know just where it's going

Missing link has got you standing on the brink
Left the world to rot and stink
Left the world you pick up the pieces of the puzzle, eh

And now you get a lot of work done but you don't get a cent
You wake up in the morning and do it all again
Your landlord's coming down on you
And you can't pay the rent and then
Back into trouble again


9.B Is for Brutus

Lyricist:Randy Fitzsimmons

Hear them saying that a lot's a lot
You think that is all that matters?
You've done your math well, you've checked the figures
You've done your math, tell, who is the bigger man?

Can't explain it but you've got a hunch
Well, that's always something
Climb up the ladder, step up a notch
Climb up the ladder, can you see what you got?

But if you do it, do it good, Brutus
Real good, like a little man should

Did your whole world tell you work the mob?
Because it's all you can do
Try for a lot, still you have a little
Harder to happen, mister, you couldn't figure out

Of the road still you can't get it right
Can't get a lot for a little
You keep trying, ended up in the middle
Having a name like that ended up with a riddle

But if you do it, do it good, Brutus
Real good, like a little man should

Rewind and look at what you got
An ambition but you lost the plot

Shoot us, Brutus, prison time is going to do
What's expected of you

Real good
Like a little man should

Bad, bad
Wanted nothin' stuck in me


11.Dead Quote Olympics

Lyricist:Randy Fitzsimmons

The dead quote Olympics
The dead quote Olympics
The dead quote Olympics
The dead quote Olympics

You can't make an omelette
Without breakin' an egg
And I can't make a headache
If I don't aim at the head

You had enough of their thoughts, have your own
Then you wouldn't have to be such a clone
That just won't get you nowhere
You thought it would?

The dead quote Olympics
(It's on)
The dead quote Olympics
(You won)
The dead quote Olympics
(I'm done)
The dead quote Olympics

This time you've really got somethin'
It's such a clever idea
But it doesn't mean it's good
'Cause you found it at the library

Yes they were smart but they're dead
And you're repeatin' all that they said
You know it don't make you clever
Like you thought it would

The dead quote Olympics
(It's on)
The dead quote Olympics
(You won)
The dead quote Olympics
(I'm done)
The dead quote Olympics

You didn't read between the lines
So it won't do you any good, it's true
(The dead quote Olympics)
And that moment that you live for
It doesn't live for you
(The dead quote Olympics)

When weekends set standard and pace
When we're all showered in books and berets
And that will just get us nowhere
Who thought it would?

The dead quote Olympics
(It's on)
The dead quote Olympics
(You won)
The dead quote Olympics
(I'm done)
The dead quote Olympics

The dead quote Olympics
(It's on)
The dead quote Olympics
(You won)
The dead quote Olympics
(I'm done)
The dead quote Olympics


12.See Through Head

Lyricist:Randy Fitzsimmons

I know what you're thinking
You got a mind that's stinking
You know
You got a transparent cranium, a see through head

(Oh oh oh oh)
It doesn't mean a thing
(Oh oh oh oh)
It's just a paper ring
(Oh oh oh oh)
It, it doesn't mean a thing
I got thoughts in my head and I'm ready to sting

(Oh oh oh oh)
I I I know you come my way
(Oh oh oh oh)
I I I spot you from a mile away
(Oh oh oh oh)
So now you come my way
I got cutlery, got napkin, saltshaker pepper spray

You got a head
Gets you ahead
You got a head
A see through head full of
Whoo!

(Oh oh oh oh)
You thought you had it made
(Oh oh oh oh)
Wining and dine in bed
(Oh oh oh oh)
You thought you had it made
You wanna cut a piece of cake, you gotta have a bit of blade

(Oh oh oh oh)
I I I'm not so easily lead
(Oh oh oh oh)
You pick up but the line is dead
(Oh oh oh oh)
I'm not so easily lead
You always end up losing 'cause you got a see through head

You got a head
Gets you ahead
You got a head
A see through head full of

Oh, it doesn't matter
It's you, yeah you
It's you, yeah you
It's you, it's you, it's you and your see through head

You got a head
Gets you ahead
A see through head
(Oh oh)

You got a head
Gets you ahead
You got a head
A see through head
(Oh oh)


13.Antidote

Lyricist:Randy Fitzsimmons

Woh ohh ohh
Woh ohh ohh
Woh ohh ohh
Woh ohh ohh, woh ohh ohh

Bitter taste
In your mouth
It's too late
To get it out

Everytime
I'm around
You try to leave but
I'll be standin' in your way

You want antidote, I got the poison
You want antidote, I got the poison

Second try
To say goodbye
Kick this habit but
I'll be standin' in your way

Woh ohh ohh
Woh ohh ohh
Woh ohh ohh, woh ohh ohh

Ahheee
(Woh ohh ohh)
You want antidote, I got the poison

14.No Pun Intended

Lyricist:Randy Fitzsimmons

So you look for authenticity
But I can see what is botherin' me
Kind you want from long way back in time
It's been disposable since eighty nine

I never wanted this to end
Good with transmission but too lazy to send
Not going down no in no history
You're going down because of me
Ooh

A lot of cause to be alarmed
A solid chance of an incomin' harm
Put up with me or I put you away
So I ask what have we learned here today
I never wanted it to stop

So I gave notice and I moved to the top
Your opinion never weighed a ton
And your talkin' never hurt anyone

And now it's time to see what you got from me
But full understandin' can't be guaranteed
You say we had our fill but I move for the kill
Keep on doing it till I get everybody everywhere
People are people and they're never scared away

I say, â½Intended no punâ

So you look for authenticity
Only to find what you wanted in me
You had a function long long time ago
Had a function but the thinkin' was slow

I never wanted this to end
Good with transmission but too lazy to send
Not going down no in no history
You're going down because of me


15.Genepool Convulsions

So you go by
I cannot lie
Pounder for maze
The truth's away

I sure know how this things will shift
I even know the time of day
It's not a question of quantity
More sure a question of quality

Oh mommy mommy, hey daddy daddy
You're both second hand assumptions
Oh mommy mommy, hey daddy daddy
You're both genepool convulsions

I'm not so dumb

I got a thumb
But on the phone
Apposable
But in re-dealing on the daily road
Superiority is nothing but
A friendly man with monkey hands
A friendle mom with monkey pawns

Oh mommy mommy, hey daddy daddy
You're both second hand assumptions
Oh mommy mommy, hey daddy daddy
You're both genepool convulsions
