Something In My Blindspot

Vic Ruggiero Something In My Blindspot Lyrics
1.Taking Care Of Business

the first time i saw your face i felt regret
or was it the first time that we had met?
but since then i've been takin' care of business
yeah since then i've been takin' care of business

the first time i saw your face i sang this song
this first time we had kissed well it was wrong
but since then i've been takin' care of business
yeah since then i've been takin' care of business

when will it end?
i can't see when
i can't say how
they are unimportant details to me now
they are unimportant details to me now
cause till then i'll be takin' care of business
yeah till then i'll be takin' care of business

what can i say?
what could i do?
do i expect
too much from you?
to hear words that haven't quite been said
upon hearing words that haven't yet been said
till then i'll be takin' care of business
yeah till then i'll be takin' care of business
until then ima takin' care of business
yeah till then i'll be takin' care of business


2.A Lovely Beginning

i drove my car through a soot black night
the radio was playin' something trite
i put my hair in a sultry pose
a veil of powder lay upon her nose
but what was that look you had upon your face?
he said i'll meet you in the same old place
her eyes were glassy and her lips expressed
and air of cultivated confidence

and i said
that all i ever really wanted from you
something to show that what i felt was true
something to show that maybe love was real
a sorry end to a lovely beginning

i asked you why you never treat me right
after she punched me in the face that night
i guess you're lucky that i couldn't punch
i little fist thing didn't hurt that much
still when she kicked it took me by surprise
i grabbed the wheel as if to make us crash
i said don't fuck around why we drive
you held me tight to make me stop at last

and she said
that all i ever really wanted from you
something to show that what i felt
something to show that maybe love was winning
and why's it ending when it should be beginning?

so tell me do you love this girl?
i said i guess and saw her fingers curl
the day had once again dissolved the night
she said at least then will you treat her right
was it a blessing or was it a curse?
her eyes were squinted and her lips were pursed
i guess i won't see you for a while
so just don't call in your usual style

and she said
that all i ever really wanted from you
something to show that maybe love was true
something to show that maybe love was winning
and why's it ending when it should be beginning?

that all i ever really wanted from you
something to show that what i felt was true
something to show that maybe love was winning
and why's it ending when it should be beginning?


3.Innocent Girl

No there's nothing sweet in this man's world
As an innocent girl
And the's nothing sweeter in this whole world
Than an innocent girl

Well, you know I like that way she walks
'Cause she's an innocent girl
And I can tell by the way she talks
That she's an innocent girl

And all the stories about her and they say...
She'll punch you in the face as soon as
You ask her name

And the's nothing sweet in this whole world
As an innocent girl
No the's nothing sweeter in this whole world
Than an innocent girl

I know that she talks so tough
But she's an innocent girl
She's proven to me enough
That she's an innocent girl

I hear you like the clothes she wears
She's an inocent girl
She knows that she couldn't care
She's an innocent girl

Here she comes, baby, there she goes
Blood upon her fist where she...
Broke your nose

No there's nothing sweet in this man's world
As an innocent girl
And the's nothing good in this whole world
Like an innocent girl

Nothing sweet in this man's world
As an innocent girl
She's an innocent girl


4.Always Something In My Blindspot

Bobby Said the times were a Changing
Now they're sitting in my blind spot waiting
Beeping their horns, coming on fast
I changed lanes or Otherwise Crash

Tell me mister what do you know?
You tell me that things are moving to slow
Cause all I see is the Stoplight Red
Nothing moving dead up a head

Everything explodes theirs no survivors
I'm in the car there ain't no Driver
My lips moving in anticipation
There's always something in my blindspot waiting

Tell me mister what do you know?
You tell me that things are moving to slow
Cause all I see is the Stoplight Red
Nothing moving dead up a head

Everything explodes theirs no survivors
I'm in the car there ain't no Driver
My lips moving in anticipation
There's always something in my blindspot waiting

There's always something in my
There's always something in my
There's always something in my blindspot waiting
There's always something in my
There's always something in my
There's always something in my blindspot waiting
There's always something in my
There's always something in my
There's always something in my blindspot waiting


5.My Place

Hey baby
It's over now and nothing left to say
All the good times faded away
No chance they will ever come again
No accusations, no regrets, just sadness in your eyes
Don't say a Word, Just Let it end the Way it began

Please come over to my Place then walk on by
I've been waiting for your kiss for a long long time
I'd Like to see your face just one more time
Please come over to my Place

I'm Watching all those people coming in through that door
Till I finally Spot your place oh I want Nothing More
Just one last look in to your eyes
Just one last touch of your hand
Don't say a Word, Just Let it end the Way it began

Please come over to my Place then walk on by
I've been waiting for your kiss for a long long time
I'd Like to see your face just one more time
Please come over to my Place

Please come over to my Place then walk on by
I've been waiting for your kiss for a long long time
I'd Like to see your face just one more time
Please come over to my Place

Please come over to my Place
Please come over to my Place
Please come over to my Place


6.Hope I Never


7.Lonely Nights

do you remember all those lonely nights together
more than our sweet days, our sweet days in the sun
do you remember all those lonely nights together
honey i remember everyone

remember driving home from the park
yelled at me about my --- in front of my sister
remember all those nights we had such a bone
put in my face through the walk and make such a blister

do you remember all those lonely nights together
more than our sweet days, our sweet days in the sun
do you remember all those nights went on forever
honey i remember everyone

remember when you threw my clothes out the window
you know it's pretty clear that way to see which way the wind
blows
remember i left light on
you didn't like that very much, it really put the ---

do you remember all those lonely nights together
more than our sweet days, our sweet days in the sun
do you remember all those nights went on forever
honey i remember everyone

(talking)
and you remember that time that... well i don't have to go into
that... that time that... the other time when i was coming home
and you were... well i know you couldn't forget... the time i
said....


8.Vacant Stare

I Waited long when there was no one there for me
I held your hand down there when no one else could see, kissed
you lips and with them i swore i'd always be there for your
vacant stare

When i said these words, i thought you may have wept, that
dreamin was the only reason that i slept
and boredom was the only company i kept, except
for your vacant stare

thanks but i'm aware of all the things im not
thanks for the television memories i got
suffice to say our chemistry was simply hot air
and your vacant stare

so excepting evil is just as it does
I promised i'd be all i could be just because
but thought i looked this hard i found the cubbert was bare

but for your vacant stare
but for your vacant stare
but for your vacant stare


9.If This Night

Well that night, there in the hollow
I've seen all, I could see
I had drunk all I could swallow
When She Said, When she said
These words to me

She said have you seen your Brother,oh with whom you have Grown?
And I said 'Last I seen Mother, he was down on the shore line
all alone'

Singing if this night, could last forever
If you was the last i see
Well i couldn't, Couldn't ask for better
If this night, if this night, could last forever

Well death is truly daylights Daughter
Much as the wind is to the sea
When we found him down by the water
He was smiling and he was almost free

Singing if this night, could last forever
If you was the last i see
Well i couldn't, Couldn't ask for better
If this night, if this night, could last forever

I sat long, down in the hollow
Whiskey bottle in my boot
I watch the sun come Upon the water
There behind my shoeless foot

Singing if this night could last forever
If you was the last I see
Well i couldn't, I Couldn't ask for better
If this night, if this night, could last forever

if this night, if this night, could last forever X3


10.Is It You?

She was always getting lost in the Moonlight
I was studying the Books on the Shelf
Of the time she traveled into the future
One time she'd even seen herself

She was sing to herself in the traffic
Grooving hard, waving her arms
One strange thing she happened to notice
Somehow she had lost all her charm

So what do you think? is that you?
Maybe it's you?
I don't know could be me, could be you?
What are you thinking?
Is it true?

I to had recently trip to the future
And I had seen the same in my self
I was crossing the street in a raincoat
I looked sad, failing in health
I didn't walk where the sunlight could find me
I turned the corners with my eye's to the ground
A trail of chain wearing ghosts was behind me
And where i walked, i dragged them around

You dodged the sun, cause it reminds you of graveyard
You only raise your eyes, when your reaching coats
Aside from nothing, there is nothing to look at
But your love is your long trail of ghosts

I liked the way, you were dancing in traffic
You carried yourself like a true junkie
You were yelling to someone on the corner
When I looked there was nobody there

So what do you think? is that you?
Maybe it's you?
I don't know could be me, could be you?
What are you thinking?
Is it true?

I'm not sure what to make of this vision
Should I be fearful of the sun going down?
Should I be working toward a revision?
Or just be happy we are beautiful now

I'll take a trip to Observe us as children
Take note of what makes us laugh and cry
I'll ask the teachers for your permanent Record
If there's a Reason I will know why

Asking the dead, won't supply you the reason
You'll be just as confused by the past
I'll visit you at the end of the season
I'll watch you're eyes, as you breathing your last

So what do you think? is that you?
Maybe it's you?
I don't know could be me, could be you?
What are you thinking?
Is it true?


11.A Love Of Confusion


12.Mad At Me


13.Animals

Well there's a house on the corner that's yellow
And nobody lives inside
I think somebody tried to sell it
Oh, but nobody wanted to buy

So in come mean old winter
And in come father time
And in come the bad old summer
And nothing else here rhymes

Chorus:
Because the animals run the house
The animals run the house
I said the animals run the house
I said the animals run the house

You know the postman come by
And he said 'Man, I'm leavin''
The meter man went inside
And he just ran out screamin'

Crazy mary said 'Let's go drink a beer, man'
I said 'Nah, nah I don't wanna go in there'
I said 'It don't feel right man,
It feels it's some kind of sin, now'

Chorus

And then a cat walked up to me, man
And he looked at me and he said 'Meow'
And the dog cam up and he looked and me and he went 'Rrrrr'
And deep down, they were whisperin', man
Behind their little eyes, they were sayin'...
They were sayin'...

Free:
'Well, come in ant and mouse
Come in dog and monkey
Come in, oh man
It may seem unresolved and funky
You may feel all wrong
Man, you may feel all wrong now'
And they said, 'Vic, if you do
It's 'cause you don't belong, now'

Chorus

Free:
And then all of a sudden, man
I started thinkin' to myself, man
Oh, things seem strange in there, they seem wrong
Nobody's payin' taxes in there, man
Nobody's got electric
Nobody's watchin' the TV set, man
Everything's, like...
There ain't no floors, man, that's just dirt
The walls are all grimy
It's almost like...
Nature, or something, in there man

And there were snakes in the floor
There were earthworms in the couch
There was amoebas on the bed
There was... There was... On the doorknob

There were spiders in the walls
There was rats on in the bed
There was a lemur in the old TV set
And there's a big bullfrog in the head
And there's a big bullfrog in the head
And there's a big bullfrog in the head
And there's a big bullfrog in the head

Chorus (Etc.)
