Cage The Elephant - Sweetie Little Jean Lyrics

Cage The Elephant - Sweetie Little Jean Lyrics

(Verse)
Sweetie Little Jean, where did u go?
Everyone's been searchin' high and low
And ur mother's worried sick
Dearest daddy lost his grip
While the whole world's watchin'
Candlelight vigils bein' held in silence
On the channel four
And they've knocked on every door
Every place you've been before

(Pre-Chorus)
How long will we let it go?
I think we should just let go

(Chorus)
I, I want u back (back)
Let's get back
Lay my weary head against ur bones
Where all my troubles will be dead and gone

(Pre-Chorus)

(Verse 2)
Has melancholy taken u for good?
You know that I would save u if I could
Watched ur laughter turn to tears
Then u vanished in thin air
Well we pinned ur missin' persons picture up
On every motha luvin' post
How's it feel to be a ghost?
You're the one I love the most

(Chorus Variation)
I, I want u back (back)
Let's get back
Lay my weary head against ur breast
Where all my troubles will be laid to rest

(Verse 3)
I pushed and I pulled 'til I pushed u aside
Now all that is left are the tears that u cried
I'm sorry love for all of the damage done
I only hope that someday to be back beside u

(Chorus 1)

(Pre-Chorus)

Cage The Elephant - Cry Baby Lyrics

Cage The Elephant - Cry Baby Lyrics

I think it's pretty strange
Watchin' the passersby
Crawlin' all over one another
Tryna get ahead in life

Monday u cough
Tuesday u cry
Wednesday in bed
What if u die?

U say that I'm insane
I say you're probably right
We all got somethin' important to say
But talking's a waste of time

Cry baby cry
Kick, scream, fight
Hold on with all ur might
You're gonna die, die
Open up ur eyes or life will pass u by

Don't u think it's pretty strange?
All got somethin' to hide
House in the desert, top of a mountain
Lost in a deep sea dive

Without luv, without luv
Nothin' else will eva be enough

Cry baby cry
Like it or not
It's a matter of time (x2)

Cage The Elephant - Cold Cold Cold Lyrics

Cage The Elephant - Cold Cold Cold Lyrics

(Verse)
Doctor, look into my eyes
I've been breathin' air but there's no sign of life
Doctor, the problem's in my chest
My heart feels cold as ice but it's anybody's guess

(Pre-Chorus)
Doctor can you help me cos' I don't feel right
Betta make it fast before I change my mind
Doctor, can you help me? Cos' I don't feel right
Betta make it fast before I change my mind

(Chorus)
Well, it's cold, cold, cold, cold inside
Darker in the day than the dead of night
Cold, cold, cold, cold inside
Doctor, can you help me? Cos' somethin' don't feel right
Somethin' don't feel right

(Verse 2)
Sweet nurse, don't look at me that way
I've seen those eyes before, I can tell you want to play
Counselor, give me some advice
Tell me, how hard will I fall if I live a double life?

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
And as the darkness falls it fills up both my eyes
My life before me like a flash in the night
With my arms open wide

(Chorus)

Cage The Elephant - Trouble Lyrics

Cage The Elephant - Trouble Lyrics

(Verse)
We were at the table by the window; the view
Castin' shadows, the sun was pushin' thru'
Spoke a lot of words, I don't know if I spoke the truth

(Pre-Chorus)
Got so much to lose
Got so much to prove
God don't let me lose my mind

(Chorus)
Trouble on my left, trouble on my right
I've been facin' trouble almost all my life
My sweet love, won't u pull me thru'?
Everywhere I look I catch a glimpse of u
I said it was love and I did it for life (did did it for u )

(Verse 2)
We will come to pass, will I pass the test?
U know what they say, yeah
The wicked get no rest
U can have my heart, any place, any time

(Pre-Chorus)
Got so much to lose
Got so much to prove
God don't let me lose my mind

(Chorus x2)

(Outro)
Got so much to lose
Got so much to prove
God don't let me lose my mind

Cage The Elephant - Punchin' Bag Lyrics

Cage The Elephant - Punchin' Bag Lyrics

She's a stone cold straight-faced killer and a lover
And she won't put up with another brood who only wants to bruise her
Take her love and then abuse her

She won't take no more, won't take no more
Won't take no more, won't take no more

Oh no ain't it a drag
If u take a swing, she swing back
She say I'm not ur punching bag

Heaven help ya 'm tellin' the truth
Heaven help ya she's comin' for u
Heaven help ya the girl likes to fight
Afraid of nothin' and she carries a knife

She said oh no I'm not ur punchin' bag
I'm not ur punching bag (x2)

What kinda man are u?
Instead of kisses u gave bruises
No more time for cheap excuses
If I were u, I would be leavin'
Best u go while you're still breathin'
She won't take no more, won't take no more
Won't take no more, won't take no more

Last time, last time you're eva goin' to (x4)

Oh no ain't it a drag
Everywhere u go, better watch ur back
Cos' I'm not ur punching bag

Cage The Elephant - That's Right Lyrics

Cage The Elephant - That's Right Lyrics

(Verse)
Let ur hair down, let's unwind
Take ur problems, leave them behind
U got ur troubles and I got mine
Baby that's right, baby that's right

(Pre-Chorus)
I get in trouble cos' I speak my mind
Sometimes I like it when I make u cry
Baby that's right, baby that's right

(Chorus)
I know tomorrow we may have regrets
But as for right now where's the party at?
We'll stay up all night waitin' for the sun to shine, sun to shine
Baby that's right, baby that's right, baby that's right, ahh

(Verse 2)
Take a bottle of whiskey and a bottle of wine
Take all ur problems, leave them far behind
I say I'm sorry almost every time
Baby that's right, baby that's right

(Chorus x2)

Cage The Elephant - How Are You True Lyrics

Cage The Elephant - How Are You True Lyrics

Wake up, say a little prayer
Out of bed to the bathroom where
I take a look at myself and I stop and stare
And I wonder who is this standin' here

And I try to find the will to carry on
Wonder how much longer I can carry on
Cause these days they take so long, yes they do

Hey, how are u true?
The light will guide u home, yes it will
Hey, how are u true?
Well there's one thing that u should know
Yes u should
You need luv, u need luv, u need luv
You need luv

All ur days spend countin' numbers
Till one day you'll find, day you'll find
That life has passed u by
And in the quiet still of silence try to hide ur eyes
Oh no so don't cry, oh no

Hey, how are u true?
The light will guide u home, yes it will
Oh the years, they turn so fast
Soon the present will be past and you'll look back and laugh
Yes u will

Well I can still remember, yes I was a young man too
Alone, but not forgotten and the candle shinin' through
Still all these words I've spoken don't mean anythin' at all
Without luv, without luv, without luv
Without luv

Do, do, do, oh yeah
Do, do, do, oh yeah

I remember clearly we were both there on the airplane
Told me all ur secrets, oh I neva saw it comin'
I thought that u were jokin'
You were actually quite serious

No, she don't mess around

Oh St. Louis, California
Blue eyes, yeah she's coming for you
Land of Mary, Charm City
Oh lord, wish she was my baby
You know she'll drive you crazy
Yeah she's comin' for you
No, she don't mess around
No, she don't mess around

(Chorus)

(Verse 2)
The heat is risin' and only gettin' hotter, ready to blow
I think I'll pour myself a glass of water, let it flow
She'll show you what she's made of
Yeah, she's coming for you
She's gonna try to break you
Yeah, she's coming for you
No, she don't mess around
No, she don't mess around

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no

(Chorus x2)
