R.E.V.O.

Walk Off the Earth R.E.V.O. Lyrics
1.Money Tree

That CD in your place, that poster on your wall,
that label on your face, but it don't bother you at all
You sold out for that tree
And I'm playin here for free
I'm playin here for free
Just a picture on my wall
-and it's comin down
And I'm not loving you at all
-and I'm comin down
That movement in your feet, that swagger in your hips,
I've seen this shit before, it's when your music finally slips
And I'm playin here for free
I'm playin here for free
Just a picture on my wall
-and it's comin down
And I'm not loving you at all
-and I'm comin down


2.Somebody That I Used To Know


Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end, always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
No you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your
number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
And I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to
know

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
And you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your
number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Somebody
(I used to know)
Somebody
(Now you're just somebody that I used to know)


3.R.E.V.O.

Close your eyes and take my hand
Throw out what the teacher said
The revolution's in my head
The revolution's in my head
Raise the mast and set your sails

Just say when,
Just say when,
Just say when,
Just say when,
Go!

I've got a fever that I can't control
I'm knee-deep and I don't even know my name
I forgot about it.
I'm on fire, I'm a burning coal,
We can't fight it 'cause we never sold the flame,
Not for love or money.

Close your eyes and take my hand
Silenced by the driving sound
The revolution's in my head
The revolution's in my head
Raise your fist, and stand your ground
Go!

I've got a fever that I can't control
I'm knee-deep and I don't even know my name
I forgot about it.
I'm on fire, I'm a burning coal,
We can't fight it 'cause we never sold the flame,
Not for love or money.

Hey hey, you know we're never coming down
Hey hey, you know we're never coming down
Hey hey, you know we're never coming down
Hey hey, you know we're never coming down

We're never coming down
The revolution's in my head
You know we're never coming down

I've got a fever that I can't control
I'm knee-deep and I don't even know my name
I forgot about it.
I'm on fire, I'm a burning coal,
We can't fight it 'cause we never sold the flame,
Not for love or money.

Just say when,
Just say when,
Just say when,
Just say when,
Not for love or money
Yeah, we're never coming down


4.Red Hands

Oh yeah, oh yeah-ah, that gun is loaded

I know that I messed up a few times or watcha wanna call it
I know if I fell down, you'd change the way that I saw it
I put it on the line for this time only
(Is that what you really want?)

I can't see that I got red hands, I'm colorblind singing
(day-oh)
Don't put the blame on me, child, the damn thing gone wild
(day-oh)
Never wanted to be fooling you, can't believe I was wounding
you-oo
(Is that what you really want?)

Oh yeah, oh yeah-ah, that gun is loaded

That gun is loaded, but it's not in my hand
That gun is loaded, but it's not in my hand
The fire burns, I'm not the one with the match, man
That gun is loaded, but it's not in my hand

Oh yeah, oh yeah-ah, that gun is loaded

I've seen it all before, you back out, and everything's changing
I needed something more, you stepped down, so what are you
chasing?
I put it on rewind for this time only
(Is that what you really want?)

I realize that I got red hands, I wanna change this (day-oh)
Don't ask me why I choose to lie, I stay blind, oh (day-oh)
It's clear to me that you are human too, your accusations are
burning through-oo
(Is that what you really want?)

Oh yeah, oh yeah-ah, that gun is loaded

That gun is loaded, but it's not in my hand
That gun is loaded, but it's not in my hand
The fire burns, I'm not the one with the match, man
That gun is loaded, but it's not in my hand

Oh yeah, oh yeah-ah, that gun is loaded

Oh yeah, oh yeah-ah, that gun is loaded


5.Gang of Rhythm

I got this old guitar
The strings are rusty
But it's all I need
Bring in the kick drum
It can back the beat
Let's gather round and sing a song
I got a shaker too
The kinds of sound
That wants to make you move
Bring in the uke
It will complete the groove
Let's gather round and sing a song

There's no worries on the earth tonight
We're all walkin' off the world tonight

Come on now everyone yeah
Come on now everyone
We're like a locomotive
Under the big hot sun
We're chained to the gang of rhythm
The song is never done
Come on now everyone yeah
Come on now everyone
Come on everyone

We got this melody
Bring in the harmony like CSNY
To write a tune you know will never die
Let's gather round and sing a song

There's no worries on the earth tonight
We're all walkin' off the world tonight

Come on now everyone yeah
Come on now everyone
We're like a locomotive
Under the big hot sun
We're chained to the gang of rhythm
The song is never done
Come on now everyone yeah
Come on now everyone
Come on everyone

And when the night is done
These chains will hold us strong
The chords will carry on
Long after we're gone oh oh

There's no worries on the earth tonight
We're all walkin' off the world tonight

Come on now everyone yeah
Come now everyone
We're like like a locomotive
Under the big hot sun

Come on now everyone yeah
Come on now everyone
We're like a locomotive
Under the big hot sun
We're chained to the gang of rhythm
The song is never done
Come on now everyone yeah
Come on now everyone
Come on everyone

We got this melody
Come on everyone
Bring in the harmony
Come on everyone

I got this old guitar
The strings are rusty
But it's all I need...


6.Speeches

The second snow is heaven sent
You laid it out like evidence
Read all the words you never said
Like speeches for the President

I drew your name in white cement
Made promises and reverence
To save them for your reference
A victim of my circumstance

But oh, when you lay your hands on me
I know that I can heal
There's a blinding light that no one else can see
Nobody, no, nobody but me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Nobody, no, nobody but me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Nobody, no, nobody but me

There's signatures to finalize
Our pen had found the bottom line
The past that had me paralyzed
And on my future analyzed

And do you think we got it right
Or we'll both disagree this time
And will it turn the wicked tide
Or be a ghost that keeps us up at night

But oh, when you lay your hands on me
I know that I can heal
There's a blinding light that no one else can see
Nobody, no, nobody but me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Nobody, no, nobody but me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Nobody, no, nobody but me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Nobody, no, nobody but me

Will I ever know your name
'Cause I want to
Do you ever care to say
That you want me

That's all I wanted

Oh, when you lay your hands on me
I know that I can heal
There's a blinding light that no one else can see
Nobody, no, nobody but me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Nobody, no, nobody but me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Nobody, no, nobody but me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Nobody, no, nobody but me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Nobody, no, nobody but me


7.Sometimes

If only you could love me sometimes
We'd rule the world together sometimes
You know we'd fight forever sometimes
And end our wars together sometimes

You're at the top of my list
Higher than milk and eggs
Higher than Huey's fist
You keep my temperature hot
Like I was feverish
I'm not a business man,
But let's do business, chick
I'm like a ceiling fan,
I keep you cool 'n sh*t.
I dismiss promiscuous misses
like Jehovah Witness does to Christmas

Together as one, our lives are the wickedest
Apart, our lives are hideous

If only you could love me sometimes
We'd rule the world together sometimes
You know we'd fight forever sometimes
And end our wars together sometimes

I got you, I got you, boy

Sometimes the love tries to be the only friend to ya
It causes stress to ya, but gets you out of bed like a rooster
Like a rooster - cut!
Forgetting all my worries like I'm high
You make me feel taller than the sky

Together as one, our lives are the wickedest
Apart, our lives are hideous

If only you could love me sometimes
We'd rule the world together sometimes
You know we'd fight forever sometimes
And end our wars together sometimes

I got you, I got you, boy
Sometimes the love dies,
And that's the only end you see
But not for you and me,
I got you till the ending
If you call out in distress or need
I'll be there more than a Mormon marries

Together as one, our lives are the wickedest
Apart, our lives are hideous

If only you could love me sometimes
We'd rule the world together sometimes
You know we'd fight forever sometimes
And end our wars together sometimes

I got you, I got you, boy
I got you, I got you, always.


8.Shake

It's getting darker, darker than a coal mine
I'm feeling broken, broken like the street lines
So what about it, maybe we should get high
Cause all I need is temporary sunlight

A remedy to take away the pain

You gotta shake, shake, shake it outta me!
We gotta fuck with the laws of gravity!
You gotta shake, shake, shake it out of me!
Oh oh ohhh, shake!
Oh oh ohhh, shake!

I'm sinking deeper, faster than an anchor
I'm moving slower, crawling like a cancer
If I could cut through, graceful like a dancer
I'd find the core and strike it with a hammer

A panacea, take away the pain

You gotta shake, shake, shake it outta me!
We gotta fuck with the laws of gravity!
You gotta shake, shake, shake it out of me!
Oh oh ohhh, shake!
Oh oh ohhh, shake!

When I see the sun, when I see the sun
That'll be the day, the darkness goes away
When I see the sun, when I see the sun
That'll be the day

You gotta shake, shake, shake it outta me!
We gotta fuck with the laws of gravity!
You gotta shake, shake, shake it out of me!
Oh oh ohhh, shake!

I gotta run this rage right outta me!
I gotta run this rage right outta me!
You gotta shake, shake, shake it outta me!
Oh oh ohhh, shake!
Oh oh ohhh, shake!


9.These Times

I just don't want it
I just don't want it enough I guess
I just don't want it
I just don't want it enough I guess

Cause these times
Have never seen days like these
Cause these times
Have never seen days like these

And if you saw it, you'd think I'd flaunt it
I just don't want it, I just don't want it
I'm not above it, my body loves it
I just don't want it

I just don't want it
I just don't want it enough I guess
I just don't want it
I just don't want it enough I guess

Cause these times
Have never seen days like these
Cause these times
Have never seen days like these

And if you saw it, you'd think I'd flaunt it
I just don't want it, I just don't want it
I'm not above it, my body loves it
I just don't want it, I just don't want it
And if you saw it, you'd think I'd flaunt it
I just don't want it, I just don't want it
I'm not above it, my body loves it
I just don't want it

I just don't want it
Enough I guess
I just don't want it
Enough I guess

Cause these times
Have never seen days like these
Have never seen days like these
Have never seen days like these
(I just don't want it)

Cause these times
Have never seen days like these
Have never seen days like these
Have never seen days like these
(I just don't want it)

(I just don't want it)
Cause these times
Have never seen days like these
Cause these times
Have never seen days like these
Have never seen days like these
Have never seen days like these


10.Summer Vibe

Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh bop bop away-o
Summer vibe, summer vibe

I'm looking for a summer vibe
Got me turning on the radio
I gotta kick these blues
Working all day
Trying to make pay
Wishing these clouds away
I want to feel the sunshine
Hit the sand
Take a walk in the waves
With nothing else to do
But sipping on suds
Working on a buzz
Keeping my drink in the shade
Taking my time

With you by my side
A Cadillac ride
Jammin' with the boys
Bonfire at night
Summer vibe
Looking for a summer vibe
I paid my dues
Got nothing to prove
Laying on the dock
Just talking to you
Summer vibe
Looking for a summer vibe

I'm Jonesing for a good time
Hitting beaches all down the coast
I'll find a place to post
Gonna somehow
Find a luau
Dance this old night away
I'm drinking something blue from a coconut
Music all up in the place
Under the moonlight
Taking my time

With you by my side
A Cadillac ride
Jammin' with the boys
Bonfire at night
Summer vibe
Looking for a summer vibe
I paid my dues
Got nothing to prove
Laying on the dock
Just talking to you
Summer vibe
Looking for a summer vibe

And the sun goes down
But it'll rise again tomorrow
Oh
Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh bop bop away-o

With you by my side
A Cadillac ride
Jammin' with the boys
Bonfire at night
Summer vibe
Looking for a summer vibe
I paid my dues
Got nothing to prove
Laying on the dock
Just talking to you
Summer vibe
Looking for a summer vibe

Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh bop bop away-o
Summer vibe, summer vibe
Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh bop bop away-o
Summer vibe
Looking for a summer vibe

No ulterior motives, all my focus on you
Well I can't hide the way I'm feeling girl

Well we just met but girl there's something that I like
I'll get right to the point, I will not waste your time, I said,

I keep on thinking that I know you from my past, I said,

Is she too good to be true?
Cause I don't think I ever met a girl like you

And I won't wait or waste your time
And I'll tell you what's on my mind
I need you and you need me
Well I am here to fulfill all your needs

Girl I wanna drink from your cup
