San Quentin lyrics - Nickelback
Let's get this circus on down the road
We're taking bets how far a tank of gas will go
Call up your best friend, then call two more
About to do some shit that you ain't seen before
There ain't no backdoor, there ain't no sign
Location changes almost every other night
Last time we found it, can't remember much
I thought I was a God until my lawyer woke me up and said I
Testify that I was right out of my mind
Let the record show I did it all for rock and roll
Screamin' every night, playing 25 to Life
So somebody please keep me the hell out of San Quentin
Out of San Quentin
Just keep me out of San Quentin
Ooh, can somebody please keep me the hell out of San Quentin?
Got out on bail, we hit the town
Somebody told me we should burn it to the ground
Too many favors, too much to drink
Come 6 AM, they had me back inside the clink
I'm gonna testify that I was right out of my mind
Let the record show I did it all for rock and roll
Screamin' every night, playing 25 to Life
So can somebody please keep me the hell out of San Quentin?
Out of San Quentin
Oh, just keep me out of San Quentin
Ooh, can somebody please keep me the hell out of San Quentin?
Tough to find, a goddamn alibi
Wrong or right, it's tough to justify
Can't dismiss, too many witnesses
When insanity's the pattern, it don't matter what it is
I'm gonna testify that I was right out of my mind
Let the record show I did it all for rock and roll
Screamin' every night, playing 25 to Life
So somebody please keep me the hell out of San Quentin
Out of San Quentin
Oh, just keep me out of San Quentin
Ooh, can somebody please keep me the hell out of San Quentin?
Skinny Little Missy lyrics - Nickelback
She's tough no doubt
She'll eat you up and spit you out
Her club in our town
You're going to need a lot of credit
If you're hanging out
Top shelf, top floor
I'm like a kid in a candy store
Resist? What for?
You know you're coming back for more
Skinny little missy don't want no boyfriend
Skinny little missy don't waste no time
Her pretty little face will never grace your bedroom
'Cause skinny little missy is a friend of mine
Skinny little missy don't want no boyfriend
Skinny little missy don't waste no time
Her pretty little face will never grace your bedroom
'Cause skinny little missy is a friend of mine
It ain't cheap I ain't lying'
Strikes pain to hear the price
What's free? My advice
Need the wallet of a baller for this appetite
Unsafe and unwise to be going after mine
Long list, long line
Fallin' for her every night
Skinny little missy don't want no boyfriend
Skinny little missy don't waste no time
Her pretty little face will never grace your bedroom
'Cause skinny little missy is a friend of mine
Skinny little missy don't want no boyfriend
Skinny little missy don't waste no time
Her pretty little face will never grace your bedroom
'Cause skinny little missy is a friend of mine
Skinny little missy don't want no boyfriend
Skinny little missy don't waste no time
Her pretty little face will never grace your bedroom
'Cause skinny little missy is a friend of mine
Skinny little missy don't want no boyfriend
Skinny little missy don't waste no time
Her pretty little face will never grace your bedroom
'Cause skinny little missy is a friend of mine
Skinny little missy don't want no boyfriend
Skinny little missy don't waste no time
Her pretty little face will never grace your bedroom
'Cause skinny little missy is a friend of mine
'Cause skinny little missy is a friend of mine
Those Days lyrics - Nickelback
Remember when the streetlights came on
And we had to be home?
Remember when Elm Street came on?
Couldn't watch it alone
Remember every prank call we made?
And star sixty-nine
Remember trying to hit eighty-eight
To go back in time?
Remember when they played Purple Rain
To our first slow dance?
Remember when we thought that first base
Was just holding hands?
Those days come back in the dead of night
Those days that felt like another life
What would you be doin' back in those days?
We'd be turnin' up the stereo
And play it everywhere we'd go
And so did everyone we'd know in those days
And everybody got to fall in love
With every movie made for us
God, I couldn't get enough of those days
Remember every poster we had
Hanging on the wall
Remember every t-shirt we stole
From the local mall?
(Ace of Spades by Motörhead)
Remember Guns n' Roses came out?
We were standin' in line
Remember front row at that show?
Camped out all night
(Got so high, Sweet Child O' Mine)
Those days come back in the dead of night
Those days that felt like another life
What would you be doin' back in those days?
We'd be turnin' up the stereo
And play it everywhere we'd go
And so did everyone we'd know in those days
And everybody got to fall in love
With every movie made for us
God, I couldn't get enough of those days
The time we'd waste 'cause life could wait
What we'd give to relive just a single day
The time we'd waste 'cause life could wait
What we'd give to relive just a single day
Instead of turnin' the page
We'd be turnin' up the stereo
And play it everywhere we'd go
And so did everyone we'd know in those days
And everybody got to fall in love
With every movie made for us
God, I couldn't get enough of those days
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Those days that felt like another life
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Those days come back in the dead of night
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Those days that felt like another life
What would you be doin' back in those days?
High Time lyrics - Nickelback
Same old, same town
Going nowhere
Need a brand new view in front of me
Don't need no map, no need to pack
And don't care much if we come back
Sitting still just wasn't meant for me
Some folks just go straight and narrow
Turns out that life ain't right for me
Cause every time we cross state lines
The grass we find on the other side
Always seems to twist up twice as green (hey!)
Well it's high time you and I got rollin'
Some place else we just gotta be
That beat up van I bought you thought was stolen
Looked like hell but felt like home to me
Strummin', thumpin' on the dashboard
Purple haze makes it hard to see
Two rearview dice, three friends of mine
And four bald tires still rollin' right
Taste of inspiration's all we need (hey!)
Well it's high time you and I got rollin' (like a rollin' stone)
Some place else we just gotta be
That beat up van I bought you thought was stolen (ain't been stolen long)
Looked like hell but felt like home to me
Eagles got us down to California (song's we're singing on)
Beach Boys got us surfin' on the sea
We got stoned goin' up to Colorado (we been smokin' on)
And couldn't see the forest for the trees
Better take a picture
Cause baby I can betcha that we won't be 'round here for long
Freedom train keeps movin' on
Stoppin' off and take it slow
Top it off when we get low
Only way that this can last
If you got ass, the grass, or gas
Clappin', tappin'
Get your groove on
Front seat drums and backseat harmonies
When we drive by your countryside
Stick out your thumb if you need a ride
No one knows just where this road will lead (hey!)
Well it's high time you and I got rollin' (like a rollin' stone)
Some place else we just gotta be
That beat up van I bought you thought was stolen (ain't been stolen long)
Looked like hell but felt like home to me (woo!)
Eagles got us down to California (song's we're singing on)
Beach Boys got us surfin' on the sea
We got Rocky Mountain high in Colorado (we been smokin' on)
And couldn't see the forest for the trees
Vegas Bomb lyrics - Nickelback
Heading' down to Vegas meeting up with the crew
I tell you staying out of jail isn't easy to do
First one to town so I went out to a bar
And then I texted the address they told me stay where you are
Bartender said brother what'll you have
I said make me something tasty I can drop in a glass
My crew busted in and they were ripping' it up
Got everybody fuckin' screaming at the top of their lungs
Hey, hey
Bombs away
Gone tomorrow
Here today
We showed up to get it on
So pour another Vegas Bomb
Hey
Ladies lining up, waving those pom poms
And out they come for another
Vegas Bomb, Bomb
Honeys throwing money 'cause the line's too long
Getcha some n' order up another round of Vegas Bomb, Bombs
This time gonna let it ride, gonna unwind, all night
Goin' outta my mind
Ladies lining up, waving those pom poms
And out they come for another Vegas Bomb, Bomb
Bomb, Bomb
Bomb, Bomb
Bomb, Bomb
Bomb, Bomb
Three dive bars and an Irish Pub
And I'd be shocked if we don't walk into a Gentlemen's Club
Bright lights, big money, 'bout to come off the chain
Somebody better check the weather, 'bout to make it rain
There's no stardust In the city of sin
I tell ya, betting on a buzz is the best way to win
No bourbon, no scotch, no bucket of beer
Because a tray of my new favorites is about to appear
Hey, hey
Bombs away
Gone tomorrow
Here today
We showed up to get it on
So pour another Vegas Bomb
Hey
Ladies lining up, waving those pom poms
And out they come for another Vegas Bomb, Bomb
Honeys throwing money 'cause the line's too long
Getcha some n' order up another round of Vegas Bomb, Bombs
This time gonna let it ride, gonna unwind, all night
Goin' outta my mind
Ladies lining up, waving those pom poms
And out they come for another Vegas Bomb, Bomb
Bomb, Bomb
Bomb, Bomb
Bomb, Bomb
Bomb, Bomb
Hey, hey
Bombs away
Gone tomorrow
Here today
We showed up to get it on
So pour another Vegas Bomb
Hey
Ladies lining up, waving those pom poms
And out they come for another Vegas Bomb, Bomb
Honeys throwing money 'cause the line's too long
Getcha some n' order up another round of Vegas Bomb, Bombs
This time gonna let it ride, gonna unwind, all night
Goin' outta my mind
Ladies lining up, waving those pom poms
And out they come for another Vegas Bomb, Bomb

Tidal Wave lyrics - Nickelback
Loving you is just like surfing on a tidal wave
Driftin' through the night, inhibition slips away
Shifting with the tide, hiding from the light of day
Letting go, take control over me
Undertow, getting pulled underneath
(Loving you)
Loving you is just like surfing on a tidal wave
Lost in one another, hopin' never to be found (Loving you)
Loving you is just like surfing on a tidal wave
Rollin' 'round forever 'til we both come crashin' down (Loving you)
Loving you is just like surfing on a tidal wave
Coming up for air, I swear, we're just about to drown (Loving you)
Loving you is just like surfing on a tidal wave
Heavy on my mind, levee's breaking currently
Never thought that I'd find myself so lost at sea
Letting go, take control over me
Undertow, getting pulled underneath
(Loving you)
Loving you is just like surfing on a tidal wave
Lost in one another, hopin' never to be found (Loving you)
Loving you is just like surfing on a tidal wave
Rollin' 'round forever 'til we both come crashin' down (Loving you)
Loving you is just like surfing on a tidal wave
Coming up for air, I swear, we're just about to drown (Loving you)
Loving you is just like surfing on a tidal wave
Lost in one another, hopin' never to be found (Loving you)
Loving you is just like surfing on a tidal wave
Rollin' 'round forever 'til we both come crashin' down (Loving you)
Loving you is just like surfing on a tidal wave
Coming up for air, I swear, we're just about to drown (Loving you)
Loving you is just like surfing on a tidal wave
Does Heaven Even Know You're Missing? lyrics - Nickelback
The day I finally felt alive
Was the day that you fell in my life
Love was always lost on me
'Til you showed up and set me free
I've never been this way before
Now I know what I waited for
You traded an eternity
To come and hide away with me
Oh, does heaven even know you're missing
And did you come here straight from above?
Did you choose to fall from grace
And lose your wings to fall in love?
Does heaven even know you're with me
And are we livin' on borrowed time?
If you're lookin' for a soul to save
It's not a problem, you can borrow mine
I knew it from the day we met
That I could throw away regret
It doesn't matter what we do
As long as I can be with you
So come and run away with me
You're gonna love it, wait and see
Forever we can live like that
'Cause I'm never gonna give you back
Oh, does heaven even know you're missing
And did you come here straight from above?
Did you choose to fall from grace
And lose your wings to fall in love?
Does heaven even know you're with me
And are we livin' on borrowed time?
If you're lookin' for a soul to save
It's not a problem, you can borrow mine
Does heaven even know you're missing?
(Does heaven even know? Does heaven even know?)
Just say you'll stay and never go
And never leave me here alone
Forever seems too long a road
Don't they know? Don't they know?
Does heaven even know you're missing
And did you come here straight from above?
Did you choose to fall from grace
And lose your wings to fall in love?
Does heaven even know you're with me
And are we livin' on borrowed time?
If you're lookin' for a soul to save
It's not a problem, you can borrow mine
Does heaven even know you're missing?
(Does heaven even know? Does heaven even know?)
Just say you'll stay and never go (You'll never go, you'll never go)
Does heaven even know you're missing? (You'll never leave me here alone)
Does heaven even know?
Steel Still Rusts lyrics - Nickelback
Best of days livin' a simple life
There's nowhere to go when there's only one stop light
His grandmother told him "Don't you dare sign up
They'll ship you away to places we ain't heard of
Get a degree, and maybe be a doctor
Just ask your daddy, it won't matter once they got ya
Lifetimes you could spend to find out what she meant
Her final dyin' breath, this is what she said"
"Long gone is the praise for those who fought for us
Ashes to ashes, turns out steel still rusts
Stone carved in your name, no one can really trust
Shoulder another soldier they stole from us
Don't ever bend, don't ever crawl
Supposed to stand and never fall
Long gone is the praise for those who fought for us
Ashes to ashes, turns out steel still rusts"
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
And steel still rusts
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
A third of his life off in a foreign land
Thanks for your service, sincerely, Uncle Sam
Lost the best of friends he'd ever known
And no line of welcome signs once he got back home
He got a job, a doorman at a dive bar
Became a bodyguard, protecting famous rock stars
Lost count of the times he's been around the world
Promised grandmama he'd never lose these words
Long gone is the praise for those who fought for us
Ashes to ashes, turns out steel still rusts
Stone carved in your name, no one can really trust
Shoulder another soldier they stole from us
Don't ever bend, don't ever crawl
Supposed to stand and never fall
Long gone is the praise for those who fought for us
Ashes to ashes, turns out steel still rusts
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
And steel still rusts
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
And dust to dust
Forever feel the wounds that never heal
When fallen friends are now a line of crosses in a field
Long gone is the praise for those who fought for us
Ashes to ashes, turns out steel still rusts (Steel still rusts)
Stone carved in your name, no one can really trust
Shoulder another soldier they stole from us
Don't ever bend, don't ever crawl
Supposed to stand and never fall (And never fall)
Long gone is the praise for those who fought for us
Ashes to ashes, turns out steel still rusts
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
And steel still rusts (Steel still rusts)
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
And steel still rusts
Horizon lyrics - Nickelback
I wish that when you walked in, I could hide it
I wish that when we touched, there wasn't lightnin'
You say you wish our hearts had better timin'
But somethin' always keeps us from collidin'
'Cause one of us is always holdin' somebody else
While one of us is hoping that nobody could tell
And the both of us are gettin' good at foolin' ourselves
Waitin' on the other one to figure it out
So how long (How long) before (Before) the stars will all align?
Or am I (Am I) just chasing (Chasing) your love?
Like it's just over the next horizon
(Just over the next)
I know you like the way you keep me captive
So what's it gonna take to make this happen? (To make this happen)
I lost my chance when you met him
I went through Hell and back again
But thank God there's no way to kick this habit
'Cause one of us is always holdin' somebody else
While one of us is hoping that nobody could tell
And the both of us are gettin' good at foolin' ourselves
Waitin' on the other one to figure it out
So how long (How long) before (Before) the stars will all align?
Or am I (Am I) just chasing (Chasing) your love?
Like it's just over the next horizon
Like it's just over the next horizon
Just over the next horizon
Can we close the distance between
Where we are and where we could be?
Never really as far as it seems
When it seems just like
One of us is always holdin' somebody else
While one of us is hopin' that nobody could tell
And the both of us are gettin' good at foolin' ourselves
Waitin' on the other one to figure it out
So how long (How long) before (Before) the stars will all align?
Or am I (Am I) just chasing (Chasing) your love?
Like it's just over the next horizon
Like it's just over the next horizon
Just over the next horizon
Standing In The Dark lyrics - Nickelback
The needle on my compass must be busted or bent 'cause I can't walk straight
And I'm feelin' kinda beaten like the rusted out hinges on the backyard gate
Well, everybody lies too much
Hoping they can find true love
'Cause Hell is what we all go through
To try and find an angel like you
Woah-oh
Thank God you found me (Found me)
Because I'm broken and handing you my heart
When the night is surrounding
Need your light around me
Or else I'm just standing in the dark
When the night is surrounding
Need your light around me
Or else I'm just standing in the dark
(Or else I'm just standing in the dark)
My soul's got holes like a shotgun pattern on a highway sign
And the lady on the radio can stick this damn rain where the sun don't shine
Well, everybody lies too much
Hoping they can find true love
'Cause Hell is what we all go through
To try and find an angel like you
Woah-oh
Thank God you found me (Found me)
Because I'm broken and handing you my heart
When the night is surrounding
Need your light around me
Or else I'm just standing in the dark
Thank God you found me (Found me)
Because I'm broken and handing you my heart
When the night is surrounding
Need your light around me
Or else I'm just standing in the dark
Or else I'm just standing in the dark
Or else I'm just standing in the dark
You turn to me as if to say
Your turn to breathe as the shadows drift away
You can't explain, you just let go
Of all the pain that the world will never know
You turn to me as if to say
Your turn to breathe as the shadows drift away
You can't explain, you just let go
Of all the pain that the world will never know
Thank God you found me (Found me)
Because I'm broken and handing you my heart
When the night is surrounding
Need your light around me
Or else I'm just standing in the dark
Thank God you found me (Found me)
Because I'm broken and handing you my heart
When the night is surrounding
Need your light around me
Or else I'm just standing in the dark
You turn to me as if to say (Your turn to breathe)
Or else I'm just standing in the dark
You can't explain, you just let go (Just let it go)
Or else I'm just standing in the dark
Just One More lyrics - Nickelback
Tell me, Lord, where'd my little angel go?
'Cause I'm down here alone
If you've got room for just one more
Just one more
All the stars (All the stars)
Are burning out on me
There's a hotel in the clouds
The sign says "No vacancy"
From the top (From the top)
Of my lungs, I start to scream
From the bottom of my heart
Why aren't you still here with me? Oh
Tell me, Lord, where'd my little angel go?
'Cause I'm down here alone
If you've got room for just one more
Just one more
Tell me, Lord, where'd my little angel go?
'Cause I'm down here alone
If you've got room for just one more
Just one more
Just one more
Wake me up (Wake me up)
Help me understand
Why I'm here all by myself
With these feathers in my hand
If there's a way (If there's a way)
To lean a ladder on the moon
I would climb up there tonight
Just so I could be with you, oh
Tell me, Lord, where'd my little angel go?
'Cause I'm down here alone
If you've got room for just one more
Just one more
Tell me, Lord, where'd my little angel go?
'Cause I'm down here alone
If you've got room for just one more
Just one more
Just one more
Just one more
Won't stop 'til we're eye to eye ('Til we're eye to eye)
Tell me where to sign on the dotted line (On the dotted line)
Won't stop 'til we're eye to eye
Even if it means I've gotta give my life
Tell me where to sign on the dotted line
Heaven, if you hear me, give me back what's mine
Tell me, Lord, where'd my little angel go?
'Cause I'm down here alone
If you've got room for just one more
Just one more
Tell me, Lord, where'd my little angel go?
'Cause I'm down here alone
If you've got room for just one more
Just one more
Won't stop 'til we're eye to eye
Even if it means I've got to give my life (Just one more)
Tell me where to sign on the dotted line
Heaven, if you hear me, give me back what's mine (Just one more)
Just one more
Just one more
Feed The Machine lyrics - Nickelback
Addressing those beneath from high above
Convincing his belief for what you love
Baiting every hook with filthy lies
Another charlatan to idolize
Is this suppression just in my mind? (Just in my mind?)
No more questions, get back in line! (Just get back in line!)
You pay with your life
The duller the knife, the longer it takes (The longer it takes)
But now it's your turn
The ashes will burn, and wither away
Leaving your bones out on the stones, picking them clean (picking them clean)
And carving the truth, while harvesting you to feed the machine (to feed the machine)
The gears forever turn to grind the mice
Will you become the fuel for sacrifice?
Power absolutely all for show
The piper blows his flute and off you go
Is this obsession behind your eyes? (Behind your eyes?)
No more questions, get back in line! (Just get back in line!)
You pay with your life
The duller the knife, the longer it takes (The longer it takes)
But now it's your turn
The ashes will burn, and wither away
Leaving your bones out on the stones, picking them clean (picking them clean)
And carving the truth, while harvesting you to feed the machine (to feed the machine)
Why must the blind always lead the blind?
(Get back in line! Get back in line!)
Why do I feel like the fault is mine?
(Get back in line! Get back in line!)
Why must the weakest be sacrificed?
(Get back in line! Get back in line!)
No more questions, get back in line!
(Just get back in line!)
Pay with your life
The duller the knife, the longer it takes (The longer it takes)
But now it's your turn
The ashes will burn, and wither away (Wither away)
Leaving your bones out on the stones, picking them clean (picking them clean)
And carving the truth, while harvesting you to feed the machine (To feed the machine)
To feed the machine
Coin For The Ferryman lyrics - Nickelback
Flying down the highway like a bat out of hell
My buddy Bradley's in the middle
Darcy's lookin' out the window
We just got high and hopin' no one can tell
But with the icky of the sticky
It don't matter where the wind blows
Lighter in my hand and I've got nothing to burn
Except a little turpentine inside of those five paint cans
Get grandpa's shotgun and we'll all take turns
But don't you ever say a word
'Cause you know momma's gonna hate that
The dice that we've been rollin'
With our lives are better stolen
When you're walking through the fire for fun
Tidal wave in motion
You can't hide from the explosion
In three, two, one
We're smokin' dynamite
Too many fuses to light
(Got kingdom come, on the run)
Gonna steal, beg, and borrow
A thousand Fahrenheit and we're about to ignite
So keep the throttle to the bottom
We may never see tomorrow
If tonight's our time to go, the one thing I know
We'll need a coin for the ferryman
Leave us a coin for the ferryman
Countin' every nickel, dime and five dollar bill
So we've been stealin' gasoline and laying low out on the back roads
The city lights are glowin' over the hill
And we can make it, but we take the chance of never coming back home
The dice that we've been rollin'
With our lives are better stolen
When you're walking through the fire for fun
Tidal wave in motion
You can't hide from the explosion
In three, two, one
We're smokin' dynamite
Too many fuses to light
(Got kingdom come, on the run)
Gonna steal, beg, and borrow
A thousand Fahrenheit and we're about to ignite
So keep the throttle to the bottom
We may never see tomorrow
If tonight's our time to go, the one thing I know
We'll need a coin for the ferryman
Leave us a coin for the ferryman
One for the road and one for those in heaven
One for the lord and take it from the devil
Don't even try, 'cause you know you can't hide
Better run, better run, better run
We're smokin' dynamite
Too many fuses to light
(Got kingdom come, on the run)
Gonna steal, beg, and borrow
A thousand Fahrenheit and we're about to ignite
So keep the throttle to the bottom
We may never see tomorrow
If tonight's our time to go, the one thing I know (one thing I know)
We're smokin' dynamite (smokin' dynamite)
(Got kingdom come, on the run)
A thousand Fahrenheit
So keep the throttle to the bottom
We may never see tomorrow
If tonight's our time to go, the one thing I know
We'll need a coin for the ferryman
Leave us a coin for the ferryman
Song On Fire lyrics - Nickelback
The first words that come out
And I can see this song will be about you
I can't believe that I can breathe without you
But all I need to do is carry on
The next line I write down
And there's a tear that falls between the pages
I know that pain's supposed to heal in stages
But it depends which one I'm standing on
I write lines down, then rip them up
Describing love can't be this tough
I could set this song on fire, send it up in smoke if
I could throw it in the river and watch it sinking slowly
Tie the pages to a plane and send it to the moon
Play it for the world, but it won't mean much
Unless I sing this song to you
I'm dying to show you
This could end happily ever after
There doesn't ever have to be disaster
And all you have to do is sing along
I write lines down, then rip them up
Impossible describing love
I could set this song on fire, send it up in smoke if
I could throw it in the river and watch it sinking slowly
Tie the pages to a plane and send it to the moon
Play it for the world, but it won't mean much
Unless I sing this song to you
I could set this song on fire
Sing this song to you
I could set this song on fire
Light this old guitar on fire, I'd still hear the notes
Drown the melody in water, I'd still hear its ghost
Sing it with somebody else, but we'd be out of tune
Play it for the world, but it won't mean much
I could set this song on fire, send it up in smoke if
I could throw it in the river and watch it sinking slowly
Tie the pages to a plane and send it to the moon
Play it for the world, but it won't mean much
Unless I sing this song to you
I could set this song on fire
Unless I sing this song to you
I could set this, I could set this
I wanna sing this song to you
I could set this song on fire
Sing this song to you
I could set this, I could set this
Must Be Nice lyrics - Nickelback
One step, two step, electric slide
Red fish, blue fish, blow your mind
Engine, engine, number nine
Mama's gonna let you set the moon on fire
Jack be nimble, jack be quick
Jack wound up with a broken neck
Humpty Dumpty, do your thing
Daddy's gonna buy you a diamond ring
Oh, it must be nice
To spend each day in paradise
You wonder why you've never failed
Your life's a goddamn fairy tale
Your life's a goddamn fairy tale
Suzie steamboat, you're so fine
Grant the wish I wish tonight
Tinker tailor, whatcha' got?
Wheels on the bus are falling off
Pretty maids all in a row
Yes, sir, yes, sir three bags full
Silver spoon at supper time
Four and twenty blackbirds, oh, so high
Oh, it must be nice
To spend each day in paradise
You wonder why you've never failed
Your life's a goddamn fairy tale
Your life's a goddamn fairy tale
One step, two step, electric slide
Red fish, blue fish, blow your mind
Engine, engine, number nine
Stick your diamond ring where the sun don't shine
Oh, it must be nice
To spend each day in paradise
You wonder why you've never failed
Your life's a goddamn fairy tale
Oh, it must be nice
To spend each day in paradise
You wonder why you've never failed
Your life's a fucking fairy tale
After The Rain lyrics - Nickelback
All your life, scramble and scurry
Take your time, rather than hurry
Never too late to write the best of your story
Remember to breathe or else you're gonna be sorry
Life's no race, it's a companion
Always face with reckless abandon
The ticket to life as my mother once told me
Stick with your pride and you're gonna be lonely (gonna be lonely)
Everybody says that life takes patience
But nobody wants to wait
Everybody says we need salvation
But nobody wants to be saved
The light in the tunnel is just another runaway train
The blue skies we wait on
Are gonna have to come after the rain
Spend your days happy and grateful
Avoid the taste of wanting and wasteful
Every good thing will come in moderation
Envy and greed will only lead to frustration
Choose your friends, carefree and kindly
Choose your words, careful and wisely
Always be there to lend a comforting shoulder
One will be there to share a day when you're older (a day when you're older)
Everybody says that life takes patience
But nobody wants to wait
Everybody says we need salvation
But nobody wants to be saved
The light in the tunnel is just another runaway train
The blue skies we wait on
Are gonna have to come after the rain
All mistakes, committed upon us
Always take a toll on the conscience
Every regret is a debt that you live with
Never forget to remember forgiveness
Everybody says that life takes patience
But nobody wants to wait
Everybody says we need salvation
But nobody wants to be saved
The light in the tunnel is just another runaway train
The blue skies we wait on
Are gonna have to come after the rain (ra-ai-ai-ain)
Gonna have to come after the rain (ra-ai-ai-ain)
Gonna have to come after the rain (ra-ai-ai-ain)
Gonna have to come after the rain (ra-ai-ai-ain)
Rain, yeah
Ra-ai-ai-ain
Gonna have to come after the rain
For The River lyrics - Nickelback
Stuck in a cage, luck of the draw
Hours to wait, gotta get out
Lord, I gotta fight one
Get me a key, pick me a lock
Gotta be free, ready or not
Gotta run, gotta run
Gotta run, gotta run
Gotta run, gotta run
Nowhere to hide 'cause someone's always gonna find you
Trying to breathe with everybody right behind you
Scattering leaves to try and cover up the footprints
Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance
I'm running for the river
'Cause the river's running high and there ain't no goin' back
They'll never catch me
I'm running for the river
You can ride, you can fly, you can tell 'em that you tried
But there ain't no going back
They'll never catch me
Tell 'em that you tried, but you're never gonna catch me
Let out the hounds, stand off the guards
Never be found, better than bars
"Damn it, he's a fast one"
Out of the tree's, into the swamp
Gotta be free, so don't ever stop
Gotta run, gotta run
Gotta run, gotta run
"God damn it, he's a fast one"
Nowhere to hide 'cause someone's always gonna find you
Trying to breathe with everybody right behind you
Scattering leaves to try and cover up the footprints
Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance
I'm running for the river
'Cause the river's running high and there ain't no goin' back
They'll never catch me
I'm running for the river
You can ride, you can fly, you can tell 'em that you tried
But there ain't no going back
They'll never catch me
Tell 'em that you tried, but you're never gonna catch me
Water ahead, 'cause I can hear it in the distance
(Gotta run, gotta run)
Water ahead, 'cause I can hear it in the distance
Water ahead, 'cause I can hear it in the distance
(Gotta run, gotta run)
I'm running for the river
'Cause the river's running high and there ain't no goin' back
They'll never catch me
I'm running for the river
You can ride, you can fly, you can tell 'em that you tried
But there ain't no going back
They'll never catch me
They'll never catch me
Never gonna catch me
Never gonna catch me
They'll never catch me
Home lyrics - Nickelback
Lying awake, did it again for Christ's sake
Should've told her to go, and I know it
But she tasted like home
Yeah, she tasted like home
I did what I did, can't say "hey man, I'm just a kid"
Saw the lie in my eyes, couldn't hide it
'Cause she tasted like home
Yeah, she tasted like home
Well, home ain't what I'd call it
When I'm the only ghost walking through the hallways
The pain gets so much clearer
When the one to blame is standing in the mirror
This fool, this liar
Lit a match and set his life on fire
I guess I'd rather be alone
In a house that's not a home
The pain in my heart's 'cause we're a thousand miles apart
I got no one to blame for the shame
'Cause she's waiting back home
I hope she's waiting back home
Stupid to think that I could blame it on the drink
Now I'm trying to stall making calls
To someone back home
I hope there's someone back home
Well, home ain't what I'd call it
When I'm the only ghost walking through the hallways
The pain gets so much clearer
When the one to blame is standing in the mirror
This fool, this liar
Lit a match and set his life on fire
I guess I'd rather be alone
In a house that's not a home
Walk through the door and there's no light on anymore
Must have known all along I was wrong
'Cause there's no one at home
No one's waiting back home
Well, home ain't what I'd call it
When I'm the only ghost walking through the hallways
The pain gets so much clearer
When the one to blame is standing in the mirror
This fool, this liar
Lit a match and set his life on fire
I guess I'd rather be alone
In a house that's not a home
