Chachi lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
Take me clear up, toss me off
The tower that is 40 stories tall
So I'm plastered to the floor
I must confess, I'm not impressed
With your everlasting line
Take draw, take a look, now
Watch me melt from a man into a boy
And I'm always on the honor society
With everything and anything around
But no attention drawn
Make me, I'm just curious
How and why we shouldn't be amazed
(So don't ask why)
Tucked in slick back heart attack
Yet no one seems to care
Take me clear up, toss me off
The tower that is 40 stories tall
So I'm plastered to the floor
I must confess, I'm not impressed
With your everlasting line
Seen expiration come to effect ventilation
Make me sweet thing
(So don't ask why)
Goodbye
Patches lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
I'm not worried about my life, it's too big
Carpet stains on the ground and I think
I've found a way out downstairs turn around
Wake me, take me up upside down
Head down, lay down
No one is ever around when I need them most
Ricochet, right now
I'm not worried about my life, it's too big
Carpet stains on the ground and I thought I found a way out
Downstairs turn around
Wake me, take me up upside down
Hands down, lay down
No one is ever around when I need them most
Ricochet ricochet, right now
Amphibious lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
I got lonely and 32 times whose been in jail
I love stealing, I love feeling watched by you
And I will never go down downtown
And I will always have my head held down
Can see it in your eyes, everything's on fire
I think I did it
What you looking at?
They'll kick the gas
It's not a game
Dirty dirty dirty dirty me you'll see
Can't be always looking behind my back, it's a trap
And I will never go down downtown
And I will always have my head held down
Can see it in your eyes, everything's on fire
I think I did it
What you looking at?
He'll kick the gas
It's not a game
And I will never go down downtown
And I will always have my head held down
Splat Out Of Luck lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
My intentions are growing but going nowhere
Going nowhere near here
Seen it all once
But lost it inside of something been pulled over my heart
And you think you've seen it all
But you wonder where I go
I've been growing right side of wrong
It's too late
You're too late
What happens in my question
Am I just splat out, splat out of luck?
And you think you've seen it all
But you wonder where I go
I've been growing right side of wrong
It's too late
You're too late
House Arrest lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
I can't bend my arms and legs please sign my cast or be without me
And I'll see the day when you can come to my house and play with me
See you in the morning
Can't you see I'm grounded
Underground, go crazy after all because it's OK for kids
We all know, just plain and simple, nothing ever goes my way
And I'll see the day, and I'll kill the day, the day
And I'll see the day when you can come to my house and play with me
See you in the morning
Can't you see I'm grounded
Underground, go crazy after all because it's OK for kids
We all know, just plain and simple nothing ever goes my way
Usery lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
I don't want to be up on a Friday night
But I don't want to be there up on a Saturday night
I don't want to be up on a Friday night
But I don't want to be there up on a Saturday night
I don't want to be up on a Friday night
I don't want to be there
When it's over when I'm starving
Could it be yanked out of your hand
Yep I'm the guy, all that you've seen and heard
What about yourself now?
You're just the girl next door
So now you're waiting to find out that it's something
Wishing, to get your face up anyway
Give it up dish it out now take it back
Now lift it up, turn it back now one more
When it's over when I'm starving
Take your hand to rest with your head
Yep I'm the guy, all that you've done and seen
Laying on the floor at 6:30 and you're here
Say you want it so, so
Just say it right you want me
Wednesday lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
Meet a part of me that feels like every other day
It has been seen in pictures and in alleyways
Can see it through your walls
Can see it through your fall
Can see it on your floor, wrong way
Lift your head up, Wednesday
It's almost 2:30
When the walls start falling down you'll be last to be found
That's alright, malt liquor
So you can promise me a day
Not going to promise nothing anyway
Say you will, say you will and then you don't
Meet a part of me that feels like every other day
It has been seen in pictures and in alleyways
Can see it through your walls
Can see it through your fall
Can see it on your floor, wrong way
Lift your head up, Wednesday
It's almost 2:30
When the walls start falling down you'll be last to be found
That's alright, malt liquor
So you can promise me a day
Not going to promise nothing anyway
Say you will, say you will and then you don't
Crooked lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
Why do you think I just want you for some more?
If it the endings over why do you come back for more?
Can be such a drag
Stir you round and round
You're a fake
Is it a crime?
It's over, no more can lose
Fork over, just leave me quick
Have you wondered why?
I wish I could smile
Screw the lid on tight with all your might
First come first serve
Is it right?
You're a fake
Is it a crime?
It's over, no more can lose
Fork over, just leave me quick
Reason 346 lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
They're disregarding us telling me I'm blind
Trying to rid my mind
And if worst comes to worst I think I'll be first to never be the same
We're not to blame
I wasn't there
Hair in her eyes and it didn't cost a thing
Fell to my knees
Stuck on like fleas
Saw on TV and it took effect
And who were they to judge?
It could've be way worse, it didn't have to strain
They bound us sleep which didn't mean a thing
Calling in for free
Sick of being down while coming through a fall
I want out
We're not to blame
I wasn't there
Hair in her eyes and it didn't cost a thing
Fell to my knees
Stuck on like fleas
Saw on TV and it took effect
Come on down
Come on down
Now round this [?] found an [?]
Where not one trace left of you that's clear where found your face
Dreams and my full Circle K
Dreams and my full Circle K
Dreams and my full Circle K
That's where your mom can find you now
Scientific lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
20 million miles away like something coming in
A tidal wave from outer space and it's so near
Step out of moving up you better stay on guard
One defender disappeared and we want him back
What are the kids going to be like in history?
It's all the same fortunate I'm still around
Science can tell
Got it all wrong
The 18 in 86 it focused in our minds
Wake up take up kill us all I'm grown
Step on up. moving up you better stay on guard
One defender disappeared and we want him back
What are the kids going to be like in history?
It's all the same, fortunate I'm still around
Science can tell
Got it all wrong
Cars lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
OK Tom take a drink now
My, oh, my, can you save my life?
It doesn't have to mean looking out for me
Hey, now look at you, way cool, on time
There's no room for Mamacita
No room for Mamacita
There's no room for Mamacita
No room for Mamacita
Sit tight, shed say
A okay and that's what you'll say
While falling on the ground, leaves in her hair
Hey now look at you, way cool on time
(Hey, hey guys, hey, I think, hey)
(Hey dude, dude, Jim Zatrioni)
We hate, we hate you, we're Nazi
We're Nazi, whoa
(Scientific riff)
Call To Love lyrics - Jimmy Eat World (feat. Bethany Cosentino)
(originally by Crooked Fingers)
Those fancy things your new boy bought you for
Won't save a jaded girl like you
So I must question what you take me for
I know for him your love is not true
So while, while you lay with that joker tonight
My friend and his love just ain't doing you right again
Won't you hear my heart
I'm transmitting a call to love
It's true I heard a birdy say your name
But I'm a straight talk woman, got no time for games
Don't need my heart kicked around the block no more
You may be smooth talking daddy but I've heard it all before
So I don't care if you're making that sound
No heart receives love when it's broken down
So how am I supposed to hear
Or take heed to this call to love?
I found a hundred different ways to say that I am not in love with you
Or maybe more if I was sure but I'd be lying not to be your fool
So come on, love is a fine thing to take a chance on
Send it back before the signal is gone
Oh, won't you call to me?
Won't you send me your call to love?
So come on, love is a fine thing to take a chance on
Send it back before the signal is gone
Oh, won't you answer me?
I'm transmitting a call to love
Oh, won't you answer me?
I'm transmitting your call to love
Firestarter lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
(originally by Prodigy)
I'm the trouble starter
Punkin' instigator
I'm the fear addicted
Danger illustrated
I'm a twisted
You're a twisted
I'm a twisted
Fire starter
I'm the bitch you hated
Filth infatuated
I'm the pain you tasted
Well intoxicated
I'm a twisted
You're a twisted
I'm a twisted
Fire starter
I'm the self inflicted
My detonator
I'm the one inflicted
Twisted and animated
I'm a twisted
You're a twisted
I'm a twisted
Fire starter
I'm a twisted
You're a twisted
I'm a twisted
Fire starter
I'm a twisted
You're a twisted
I'm a twisted
Fire starter
half heart lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
When there's no comfort in comfortable
The stolen chances and colored cars
You can invest with your full heart
You feel it crumble before you start
The path you didn't take, it always ends
Perfect only 'cause you never did
The moments that we have will soon be gone
Either you're here or you're not
You're here or you're not
The floating fire is hard to hold
Our fingers pass right through its glow
There's peace out there somewhere in time
But I'm as real as you will find
The path you didn't take, it always ends
Perfect only 'cause you never did
The moment that we have is almost gone
Either you're here or you're not
Either you're here or you're not
The path you didn't take, it always ends
Perfect only 'cause you never did
The moment that we have is almost gone
Either you're here or you're not
Either you're here or you're not
Jen lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
Jen
Don't be scared, don't be shy
We use to do this all the time
You know it Jen
Jen
We could be happy now
So jet across the coast and country, Jen
Sometimes Jennifer
Live for too long and then your chance is gone
The choice we're meant to take
Is one they'll never take
All you have to do is say
Jen
I think you tried just a little hard
Acting like something you not
Jen
I wanna make you feel the way you should
You have to let things go to keep them close
What you'll do today
Already has a name
Is anything but a mistake
Jen
Don't be scared, no don't be shy
We used to do it all the time
Ya-Ya-You know it Jen
It's you and me, what could that mean?
You can't pretend we're only friends then walk away
No one's looking now
Take a chance, come on
Could do anything you want
Jen
Put your arms around someone soft
Take it as it comes, trust your heart
Trust me
You know it, Jen
Put your arms around someone soft
Take it as it comes, trust your heart
Trust me
Trust your heart, trust me
You know it, Jen
Last Christmas lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
(originally by Wham!)
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover but you tore me apart
Now I've found the real love, now I found
You'll never fool me again!
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover but you tore me apart
Now I've found the real love, now I found
You'll never fool me again!
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special
My Enemy lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
The story is common
So plain we pass by often
All motion defeated
By endless what-if questions
Obvious, we own it
Our anxious scars and bruises
Heavy hands swing slowly
With weight of our own choosing, now
We know but can't believe it's easy as it sounds
We know but always told, "If we let go, we drown"
Thirsty for comfort
Too proud to ask for answers
Libraries of suggestion
The loudest voice is hidden
Obvious, so simple
Action makes for removal
Heavy heart, bad posture
Collapse and falling under, now
We know but can't believe it's easy as it sounds
We know but always told, "If we let go, we drown"
You feel the tide is rising
That water's cold as hell
Think enemies surround you
Everyone, except yourself
Your condition
Fake direction is no protection
No Sensitivity lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
Well I've got my car we could go and sit a while
I know it won't turn over but we'll get somewhere just the same
Now honey, I'm through talking
It's the strangest thing, but I feel safe when I'm lonely
Don't take too much
You'll get burned if it's all at one time
The world don't spin without you
I'm amazed you're standing still
I'm taking my kisses back from you
I want my kisses back from you
Your problems, they aren't problems
So be glad they never will
I'm taking my kisses back from you
I want my kisses back from you
Take it easy, don't you get
It's just expression
Would you raise your voice every time a little dirt gets under?
Cry if you want, it's the return of no sensitivity
You don't have to scream to say something that you honestly mean
The world don't spin without you
I'm amazed you're standing still
I'm taking my kisses back from you
I want my kisses back from you
And no your problems, they aren't problems
So be glad they never will
I'm taking my kisses back from you
I want my kisses back from you
When you hear those footsteps calling
Isn't it obvious? Isn't it obvious?
It's OK if you don't answer
I thought it was obvious
I thought it was obvious
The world don't spin without you
I'm amazed you're standing still
I'm taking my kisses back from you
I want my kisses back from you
Your problems, they aren't problems
Thank God they never will, never will
I want my kisses back from you
Kisses back from you, you, you
I want my kisses back from you
Place Your Debts lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
Gentlemen, place your debts
Payment in full by future you
I think we can all agree
The ending is off to a great start
The present is soon replaced
In small increments attention fades
One or another way
The house collects its mark
How do we keep making all the same mistakes?
We'd rather have the misery than growing pains
I chose a mystery
Went there alone, intentionally
I had to forgive myself
For grieving imaginary loss
You'll pay with the life not lived
You pay with each thought of what could have been
But nothing adds to the cost
Like missing the ride you're on
How do we keep making all the same mistakes?
We'd rather have the misery than growing pains
Growing pains
Gentlemen, place your debts
I'd wish you good luck, but luck isn't it
The driver and passenger
Don't go the same place
How do we keep making all the same mistakes?
We'd rather have the misery than growing pains
Roller Queen lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
I blame it on my entrance
It may have seemed too much like confidence
Let me start it over
Help me get to what I can from when I did
All that I know is how I can hold on
All that you see is how I let go
(Take me back, please)
Had to leave my reasons
It may have seemed too much, the consequence
And in your busy, dizzy life
You will become everything you said you would
All that I know is how I can hold on
All that you see is how I let go
So how about once around?
Softer lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
She's perfect in her own way
Smoke rings rising to the winter grey
She's perfect in her own way
Shining, stepping off a silver train
Now, I'm getting a sick taste in my mouth
From the medicine that I can't keep down
She's amazing in her own way
Always moving to a better place
She's amazing in her own way
Laughing, you won't get to the weaker traits
Now, I'm getting that sick taste in my mouth
From the medicine that I can't keep down
You know, time heals nothing by itself
(Tick, tock, turn it off)
(Tick, tock, turn it off)
I see that ever so clearly now
She looks a little bit different now
Maybe a little bit softer around her eyes
Just a little bit different now
Maybe a little bit softer around her eyes
The lights had just gone out at Rockefeller Center
Take it slow and make it softer
Easy likes it nice and steady
The lights had just gone out at Rockefeller Center
Take it slow and make it softer
Easy likes it nice and steady
The lights had just gone out at Rockefeller Center
Take it slow and make it softer
Easy likes it nice and steady
The lights had just gone out at Rockefeller Center
Take it slow and make it softer
Easy likes it nice and steady
Now, I'm getting that sick taste in my mouth
From the medicine that I can't keep down
You know, time heals nothing by itself
(Tick, tock, turn it off)
(Tick, tock, turn it off)
I see that ever so clearly now
(The lights had just gone out at Rockefeller Center)
(Take it slow and make it softer)
(Easy likes it nice and steady)
Something Loud lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
I walked around for days
In a familiar place
This time I finally let myself own every small feeling
There was the one who got away
There was a first for everything
Never a second guess if I was right where I should be
Do you know what I mean?
All night
Do you still feel part of something loud?
All night
Are you such a different person now?
A dream that never was
An idea you think you come from
All night
When you can't look at the day
I had it figured out
The way it really is
In growing up we've added just too much complexity
Friends at the show in '95
Miss every one of them
But there's a moment that you die or you move on to live
Every one of us did
All night
Do you still feel part of something loud?
All night
Are you such a different person now?
A dream that never was
An idea you think you come from
All night
When you can't look at the day
I had what I had
And god damn
I would change
Not a single thing
So smile, wave
Then let go
All night
Do you still feel part of something loud?
All night
Are you such a different person now?
A dream that never was
An idea you think you come from
All night
When you can't look at the day
(All night)
When you can't look at the day
(All night)
When you can't look at the day
Telepath lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
In my mind
You are an old empty old apartment
Sitting on your mother's table
Next to you is her
Carving out our names into each
Piece of wood and concrete
Told her I don't have a lot
But you can have my soul
Do you want me?
Baby do you want me?
Do you want me?
No
Do you want me?
Baby do you want me?
Do you want me?
No
In your mind, this is some new
And glorious morning
And you ain't ever gonna let
Nobody take that light again
Everyone I know is slowly
Falling in the ocean
I don't want to be
The next to row
I never learned to swim
Do you want me?
Baby do you want me?
Do you want me?
No
Do you want me?
Baby do you want me?
Do you want me?
No
In my mind, you are the road
I chose to travel
Might as well have been
The very last thing I decide
Half the time I'm lost, afraid
That you're just borrowed
It don't matter much to me
I'm not afraid to die
Baby are you with me?
Do you forgive me?
You're the one I wanted
Want now, want when I am old
Baby are you with me?
Do you forgive me?
You're the one I wanted
Want now, want when I am old
When I'm falling
You're the one I wanted
Want now, want when I am old
When I'm falling
You're the one I wanted
Want now, want when I am old
Yer Feet lyrics - Jimmy Eat World
I was drunk when I met you
I was drunk when I walked out the door
And I rolled around the night to find you
But I guess you never knew
You just needed something solid you could hold
Like a dog that came when you called
Like a coatstand that sits out in the hall
And you don't need me
It's yer feet you don't need
Always facing back a way you just came
I don't love you any more, I don't need you
I'm just keeping a score
You said life's too short to be bored
All this rollin' around on the floor
Won't get you what you want it's just a waste
And you don't need me
So I look at every woman
Just to see if there's something there for me
And I look up every moment
Just to know if I'm missing something sweet
And I need something solid to hold
Like a dog that comes when I call
Like a brick I can throw against a wall
And I don't need you
No I don't need you
No I don't need you
No I don't need you
I was drunk when I walked out the door
And I rolled around the night to find you
But I guess you never knew
You just needed something solid you could hold
Like a dog that came when you called
Like a coatstand that sits out in the hall
And you don't need me
It's yer feet you don't need
Always facing back a way you just came
I don't love you any more, I don't need you
I'm just keeping a score
You said life's too short to be bored
All this rollin' around on the floor
Won't get you what you want it's just a waste
And you don't need me
So I look at every woman
Just to see if there's something there for me
And I look up every moment
Just to know if I'm missing something sweet
And I need something solid to hold
Like a dog that comes when I call
Like a brick I can throw against a wall
And I don't need you
No I don't need you
No I don't need you
No I don't need you
