Barenaked Ladies - Conventioneers

Tekst :

You walked into the room
And the whole place stopped to notice
Standing next to you, I feel hopeless and you know this
I ve never been ashamed of my attraction
I d be happy if you gave me just a fraction
As we danced, I could see in your eyes
You and me as senior citizens in love

I followed your perfume out away from all the rabble
Right up to your room for a drink and travel Scrabble
You, stationed in the warm glow of the t.v.
Too patient as I m playing L(1)O(1)V(4)E(1)

And we laugh...and we laugh...and we laugh
And we have to or we ll end up in the bath

Now we re in the bath, I m already thinking marriage
I know that in the past it was something I d disparage
You turned down all the lights, I lit the candles
We rolled around in robes and hotel sandals
Then you slept, and I dressed, and I left
And I guess I ll see you Monday like before

Before all the fireworks exploded
Our conversations were so loaded, innuendo flying
Now what can we say?
Have a nice day
Looks like rain today...

Now I m in a cab, heading back to my apartment
Everything is drab, and I wish it never started
Now I ve landed in this awkward situation
How can I just avoid a conversation?
So I wait, come in late. It d be great
If you transferred out of state

    Ahha

    [Intro: Ras Kass]
    Ah what s crack-a-lackin zr s and shit
    Ya know DJ the boy brooklyn s own masses
    It goes

    [Chorus: Ras Kass]
    Ahha if you like the way it goes
    Keep it ra-ra big bank money and hoes
    Look...

    Living in the past

    Happy and I´m smiling
    Walk a mile to drink your water
    You know I´d love to love you
    and above you there´s no other
    We´ll go walking out
    While others shout of war´s desaster
    Oh, we won´t give in
    Let´s go living in...

    Valley of angels

    I ve been down and I m nothing at all.
    And sometimes I feel I ve grown.
    Never try to let it show,
    But I m not alone.
    If you sing this song,
    I ll take you there,
    If you don t care.

    Going to the Valley of Angels,
    to...

    Bull in a china shop

    I m a kid in a candy store
    I m a bull in a china shop
    I m a tired old metaphor
    For everything you can t afford
    And everything you can t afford to be

    I m a public embarrassment
    I m a bottle of diet poison
    I m a walking advertisement
    For everything I never meant
    And...

    Never there

    I need your arms around me
    I need to feel your touch
    I need your understanding
    I need your love so much
    You tell me that you love me so
    You tell me that you care
    But when I need you (baby)
    Baby,...
