lyrics

Still I wonder why
my tongue becomes so tied,
like an awkward clumsy guest,
showing off his best.
I ain't got no leaning stand,
I go surfin' on my tongue.
I regret I can regress
within a very bad rap?

So don't tie me to
the bottom of what I say,
or the worse that I've done,
'cause I've got so much more
to give.

Oh she was a friend,
her longing knew no end.
At school we'd laugh & talk
about, how, her senses longed.
We spent the summer's breath,
racing from the wind.
Careless speech couldn't mend,
angry hasty, words again.

So don't tie me to
the bottom of what I say,
or the worse that I've done,
'cause I've got so much more
to give.

Still I wonder why
my tongue becomes so tied,
like an awkward
clumsy guest, showing off his best.
I ain't got no
leaning stand,
I go surfin'
on my tongue.
I regret I can regress
within a very bad rap?

So don't tie me to
the bottom of what I say,
or the worse that I've done,
'cause I've got so much more
to give.

Funding could not be obtained to entice the band members from pursuing other ambition in the; then; very strong business sector, where they remain to this day. ... more
