Playlist Fitz And The Tantrums

fitz and the tantrums - handclap

Somebody save your soul cause you've been sinning in this city I know
Too many troubles, all these lovers got you losing control
You're like a drug to me, a luxury, my sugar and gold
I want the good life
Every good night you're a hard one to hold

Cause you don't even know
I can make your hands clap
Said I can make your hands clap

Somebody save your soul cause you've been sinning in this city I know
Too many troubles, all these lovers got you losing control
You're like a drug to me, a luxury, my sugar and gold
I want your sex and your affection when they're holdin' you close

Cause you don't even know
I can make your hands clap
Said I can make your hands clap

Every night when the stars come out
Am I the only living soul around?
Need to believe you could hold me down
Cause I'm in need of somethin' good right now

We could be screamin' till the sun comes out
And when we wake we'd be the only sound
I get on my knees and say a prayer: James brown

That I can make your hands clap
That I can make your hands clap
Turn it up
That I can make your hands clap

My flesh is searchin' for your worst and best, don't ever deny
I'm like a stranger, gimme me danger
All your wrongs and your rights
Secrets on broadway to the freeway, you're a keeper of crimes
Fear no conviction, grapes of wrath can only sweeten your wine

But you don't even know
I can make your hands clap
Said I can make your hands clap

Every night when the stars come out
Am I the only living soul around?
Need to believe you could hold me down
Cause I'm in need of somethin' good right now

We could be screamin' till the sun comes out
And when we wake we'd be the only sound
I get on my knees and say a prayer: James brown

That I can make your hands clap
That I can make your hands clap
That I can make your hands clap
That I can make your hands clap
So can I get a hand clap?

fitz and the tantrums - steady as she goes

Find yourself a girl and settle down
Live a simple life in a quiet town

Steady as she goes (steady as she goes)
Steady as she goes (steady as she goes)

So steady as she goes

Your friends have shown a kink in the single life
You've had too much to think, now you need a wife

Steady as she goes (steady as she goes)
So steady as she goes (steady as she goes)

Well here we go again
You've found yourself a friend that knows you well
But no matter what you do
You'll always feel as though you tripped and fell

So steady as she goes

When you have completed what you thought you had to do
And your blood's depleted to the point of stable glue

Then you'll get along
Then you'll get along

Steady as she goes (steady as she goes)
So steady as she goes (steady as she goes)

Well here we go again
You've found yourself a friend that knows you well
But no matter what you do
You'll always feel as though you tripped and fell

So steady as she goes
Steady as she goes

Settle for a girl (settle for a girl), neither up or down
(neither up or down)
Sell it to the crowd (sell it to the crowd)
that is gathered round (that is gathered round)

Settle for a girl (settle for a girl), neither up or down
(neither up or down)
Sell it to the crowd (sell it to the crowd)

fitz and the tantrums - last raindrop

Seconds move as fast as the hours do
In between the world I don't have with you
Here in all the miles that we used to share
My heart is still there

If you found some other love than me
It would tear this one completely
Will you still need me?
How will we carry on and on and on

Now that winter's falling
All of the color's gone
When the summer stops
With the beat of my heart, my heart
Days pass by
Fade all the clouds apart
Last raindrop
With the beat of my heart, my heart

Strike away the fears hidden 'round in me
They're eating up the truth of our memory
Keep in mind the words so they don't give way
That's what we both say

If you found some other love than me
It would tear this one completely
Will you still need me?
How will we carry on and on and on

Now that winter's falling
All of the color's gone
When the summer stops
With the beat of my heart, my heart
Days pass by
Fade all the clouds apart
Last raindrop
With the beat of my heart, my heart

Now that winter's falling
All of the color's gone
When the summer stops
With the beat of my heart, my heart
Days pass by
Fade all the clouds apart
Last raindrop
With the beat of my heart, my heart

All I really want is for you to say
Somehow, someway
That you'll never give up and slip away

Now that winter's falling
All of the color's gone
When the summer stops
With the beat of my heart, my heart
Days pass by
Fade all the clouds apart
Last raindrop
With the beat of my heart, my heart

Now that winter's falling
All of the color's gone
When the summer stops
With the beat of my heart, my heart
Days pass by
Fade all the clouds apart
Last raindrop
With the beat of my heart, my heart

fitz and the tantrums - get away

Fog in my light
Hole in the moon
Talking my number, silent storm through
I get a hit off
I get a kick off
Being here with you
Ohh

I heed the touch of the wind
Scratching on the wheels
of the burning pavement
I took control of
I wanna get off
Faster, faster, move girl!
Here I go

Wooaahh
Come on let me hear you say
Yeaahh
The thrill has got a hold on me
Wooahh
Take me on and get away
Yeaahh
Come on let me hear you say

Break in the road
Sun on my heels
Focus on the wild open barren spaces
I get a kick off
I get a hit off
Being here with you
Ohh

I feel the warmth of the rain
Dancing on the dust
of the burning pavement
I lose control of
I wanna get off
Faster, faster, watch out!
Here I go

Wooaahh
Come on let me hear you say
Yeaahh
The thrill has got a hold on me
Wooahh
Take me on and get away
Yeaahh
Come on let me hear you say

And this place that I'm running to
And this feeling I'm needing you
Gets me higher and higher
It's the fast life, fast pace
Take me, take me, get away!

Wooaahh
Come on let me hear you say
Yeaahh
The thrill has got a hold on me
Wooahh
Take me on and get away
Yeaahh
Come on let me hear you say

Wooahh
Take me on and get away
Yeaahh

fitz and the tantrums - rich girls

Suzie came wealthy family raised
Went to college all her debts were paid
Got a job down in Soho
Her daddy said don't date him
He got no dough

She had the doorman, elevator
Penthouse alligator shoes and a driver that took her to school
She got no need for any man even if you got a plan
You'd always end up playing the fool

I was dreaming of a perfect union
But then I woke up to find
Truth comes crashing down
Don't matter what you do cuz that

Rich girls will break your heart and
Poor girls will take your money
I confess and I repent for things I've done
My soul is spent
On rich girls
And poor girls

Shonie came from a broken home
Her mamma sic and her daddy long gone
Got a job but it don't pay no bread

Looking for a man
Who is well fed

She got the low rent underground
Pad lock studio blues and a that bus fare
To take her to school
She show needs a steady man always got a perfect
For you to pay up for playing the fool

I was dreaming of a perfect union
But then I woke up to find
Truth comes crashing down
Don't matter what you do
Cuz

Rich girls will breaking a your heart and
Poor girls will take your money
I confess and I repent for things I've done
My soul is spent

Don't need no rich girls
Don't need no poor girls

fitz and the tantrums - roll up

Can I get a witness in the darkness?
'cause there ain't no love at all to be found
Feeling like a freight train, trying to break chains
Everybody needs somebody, no doubt

Sugar just step into your sneakers
And step behind the speakers
Your heart will keep me beating
And make me a believer
Don't you want me?
Don't you want me?
I need some mercy in my soul right now

Give me what you got, oh oh oh
Give me what you got, oh oh oh

I said, roll up, roll up, roll up, yeah come get your love

Just as long as you're there in the break of the light
I said, roll up, roll up, roll up, yeah come get your love
I don't care, I don't care, if I'm losing my way
I'll be waiting for you as the night fades away
So roll up
Roll up
Roll up
Roll up

Can I get an amen when the night ends?
There's no winner when you're walking alone
Sliding down the last street as the day creeps
What you doin' when nobody at home?

Sugar just step into your sneakers
And step behind the speakers
Your heart will keep me beating
And make me a believer
Don't you want me?
Don't you want me?

fitz and the tantrums - spark

You think it's over now
You think we'll go away
But we keep climbing up
You can't keep us down

A temporary no
This shit is not for play
We're not your typical
That ain't what we're here for

It's time we light it up
Our match's to the grain
The tension's driving in
We ain't looking down

Watch how we take the throne
Drop like a cannonball
We take the lead, no
We're never gonna follow

Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Don't they know, the speaker is about to explode?
Don't they know, this building is about to blow?
This building is about to

Blow, oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

3 years of digging holes
Been burning through our soles
Yeah we keep on rising high
You can't touch us now

We give it every night
Our hearts are dynamite
We spit that fire
So you better listen up

Oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Don't they know, the speaker is about to explode?
Don't they know, this building is about to blow?

Blow

Bang bang here we go
Everything's about to blow

Boom Boom, it's going up
Blast it up and lift it up
Sky high sky high
Here we go 'bout to fly

Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh [x2]

Don't they know, the speaker is about to explode?

fitz and the tantrums - fools gold

Oh, maybe I just wasn't good enough
To blow your mind, you know I've tried
Them silver lines they cut like blades of glass
Not worth the blood we've shed for love

So give it up, start heating, hearts have gone cold
Had enough bleed-bleeding, it's all been done before
Give it up, start heating, hearts have gone cold
Hey now, when we gonna wake up?

But fools gold shines like diamonds in our eyes
Thought we had a million, but baby we got nothing
But fools gold shines like words that make us cry
We just keep on digging, find us something better
For the next time, next time
Something better for the next time, next time

So maybe I just wasn't strong enough
To tow the line, make true the lies
The fortune found, now it's all locked away
We've lost the key, how to believe

So give it up, start heating, hearts have gone cold
Had enough bleed-bleeding, it's all been done before
Give it up, start heating, hearts have gone cold
Hey now, when we gonna wake up?

But fools gold shines like diamonds in our eyes
Thought we had a million, but baby we got nothing
But fools gold shines like words that make us cry
We just keep on digging, find us something better
For the next time, next time
Something better for the next time, next time

Oh baby I just wasn't good enough
Cause baby I just wasn't strong enough

But fools gold shines like diamonds in our eyes
Thought we had a million, but baby we got nothing
But fools gold shines like words that make us cry
We just keep on digging, find us something better

But fools gold shines like diamonds in our eyes
Thought we had a million, but baby we got nothing
But fools gold shines like words that make us cry
We just keep on digging, find us something better
For the next time, next time
Something better for the next time, next time
Something better for the next time, next time
Something better for the next time, next time

fitz and the tantrums - get right back

In my head, when I'm home
I'm in the light of my life alive on the ropes
Higher ground, been so low
I will survive in the wild alive on my own

fitz and the tantrums - 6 am

Girl, I get tired of sleeping alone in my bed
I really need you now
I've been trying to get back the days that we had
But see, I don't know how
There's no way to conceive the right plans in my head
I just can't hold them down
All my hopes they stay curled in between these four walls
And I can't shake them out

It's 6 in the morning, I'm still awake
My sleepless heart is torn up, babe
A love song's on the radio
But these words I hear - they're not for me, no

It's 6 in the morning, I'm still awake
My sleepless heart is torn up, babe
A love song's on the radio
But these words I hear - they're not for me, no

I'm tryna keep up, tryna move on
Beyond this pain before I break

See it's hard to confess, but I miss all the time we spent
I can't explain
'Cause when I start up the nerve to reach out to you, baby
It just floats away
Still I dream of the days when we were on the same page
I really want them now
All my hopes they stay curled in between these four walls
And I can't shake them out

It's 6 in the morning, I'm still awake
My sleepless heart is torn up, babe
A love song's on the radio
But these words I hear - they're not for me, no

It's 6 in the morning, I'm still awake
My sleepless heart is torn up, babe
A love song's on the radio
But these words I hear - they're not for me, no

I'm tryna keep up, tryna move on
Beyond this pain, before I break

It's 6 in the morning, I'm still awake
My sleepless heart is torn up, babe
A love song's on the radio
But these words I hear - they're not for me, no

It's 6 in the morning, I'm still awake
My sleepless heart is torn up, babe
A love song's on the radio
But these words I hear - they're not for me, no

Not for me
They're not for me, no

fitz and the tantrums - run it

[verse 1]
I been chasing empty spaces
To hold a piece of you
But you ain't waiting
Am I fading?
Is there nothing I can do?

[pre-chorus]
And babe if I change
Do you find faith?
It's a blind shame in my room
So please don't not stay
It's a black day
Since you've gone
Chase after you

[chorus] x2
I said you run it, run it
Yeah you run it, run it
Yeah you run it, run it
There you go
I said you run it, run it
Oh, you run it, run it
No, I shouldn't have done it
Now I know, oh

[verse 2]
Tell me are you lonely when you find another piece of me?
Cause I don't blame you
Tell me, it's true
I'm still the one you need

[pre-chorus]
And babe if I change
Do you find faith?
It's a blind shame, I believe
So please don't not stay
It's a black day
Since you've gone
I'm on my knees

[chorus]
I said you run it, run it
Yeah you run it, run it
Yeah you run it, run it
There you go
I said you run it, run it
Oh, you run it, run it
No, I shouldn't have done it
Now I know, oh

[refrain]
There you go
Now I know, oh

[bridge]
I can't change all these bad days
It's a damn shame in my skin
And maybe someday you'll forgive me
And you'll love me once again

[chorus] x2
I said you run it, run it
Yeah you run it, run it
Yeah you run it, run it
There you go
I said you run it, run it
Oh, you run it, run it
No, I shouldn't have done it
Now I know, oh

[outro]
There you go
Now I know, oh
