Well it’s five past ten in the morning And I’m ready and raring to go. I got new suede shoes in my closet And I’m dressed in my finest from head to to I got cash in my pocket, two shots in my coffee A smile on my face and nothing’s gonna stop me ‘Cause it’s five past ten in the morning And I’m ready and raring to go Well it’s five past ten in the morning And the sun’s shining high in the sky There’s a brand new day laid before me And I’m feeling so good but don’t ask me why ‘Cause there’s a mountain of bills that I have to pay And my man never listens to what I say But it’s five past ten in the morning And the sun’s shining high in the sky INSTRUMENTAL Well it’s five past ten in the evening And I’m ready and raring to go. We climbed fifteen floors to the party And the DJ is swinging, my man’s in toe We got wine on the table and two shots apiece I’ve got my best new dress on and nothing underneath ‘Cause it’s five past ten in the evening And I’m ready and raring to go INSTRUMENTAL Well it’s five past ten in the morning But please let me sleep ‘till midday Never felt so bad upon waking And I can’t find my memory from yesterday The clock’s steady ticking is oh so loud And my man is a-snoring, I want to shout That it’s five past ten in the morning But please let me sleep ‘till midday Well it’s five past ten in the morning But please let me sleep ‘till midday, yeah.

Baby doll, you know I've always had a crazy thing for you But now you got me hanging on a string for you So whats it gonna be Cos its high time you gave me the lowdown Ooh yeah, you said that we were gonna go steady But then I saw you out with Eddie Is it him or is it me Cos its high time you gave me the lowdown Tell me baby, tell me straight You've got more floors than the Empire State You know I know I've got mine and I'm not too smart At least I have a heart No no no, you're not gonna knock me back again Cos I'm on the ropes, don't count to ten So what's it gonna be Cos its high time you gave me the lowdown. Tell me baby, tell me straight You've got more floors than the Empire State You know I know I've got mine and I'm not too smart At least I have a heart No no no, you're not gonna knock me back again Cos I'm on the ropes, don't count to ten So what's it gonna be Cos its high time you gave me the lowdown.

Rockin' Man 03:09
I’ve got an aching in my bones And I’m feeling so alone On nights like these, I need the company Of a man I can call my own I’ve been waiting so long for you to come along But there’s no knocking at my door I need a guarantee that in the end you’ll see You’re the man I’ve been waiting for Boy don’t you walk away oh I want a rockin’ man (rockin’ man) I want a rockin’ man (rockin’ man) When the nights are cold and my defences are low I want a rockin’ man (rockin’ man) I wanna feel a little shiver running down my spine Boy don’t you want to be a man of mine I want a rockin’ man (rockin’ man) I want a rockin’ man (rockin’ man) Why don’t you read my lips They’re begging for your kiss The time is right and by the end of the night You’ll be helpless to resist I want to sink my teeth in to something sweet Boy there ain’t no sweeter than you Oh boy the way you move, I know I just can’t lose There’s nothing I wouldn’t do Let me lead you astray, oh Chorus I’ve got an aching in my bones And I’m feeling so alone On nights like these, I need the company Of a man I can call my own I’ve been waiting so long for you to come along But there’s no knocking at my door I need a guarantee that in the end you’ll see You’re the man I’ve been waiting for Boy don’t you walk away oh Chorus

The hall is packed from front to back, I can feel you out there somewhere My eyes attune, through dust and gloom, and a rising atmosphere. Spines of cold ripple through my soul, your presence leaves a bitter taste Fear inches down my spine, oh boy I need a sign, that this isn’t meant to be my fate You give me the Heebie Jeebies when you look at me Your stare just makes me cold (the heebie jeebies) You give me the Heebie Jeebies when you look at me It chills me to my bones Oh, you give me the Heebie Jeebies, in my darkest dreams It’s a dangerous game you play (the heebie jeebies) You give me the Heebie Jeebies, and somehow it seems Your rule, I must obey Your eyes peer through the atmosphere, every time they fall on mine Shadows chase upon your face, beyond the crowd that you hide behind Dark eyes hold my gaze, I cannot turn away, like some ancient voodoo curse Imprisoned in your vice, you got my hypnotized, creeping deep into my soul You give me the Heebie Jeebies when you look at me Your stare just makes me cold (the heebie jeebies) You give me the Heebie Jeebies when you look at me It chills me to my bones Oh, you give me the Heebie Jeebies, in my darkest dreams It’s a dangerous game you play (the heebie jeebies) You give me the Heebie Jeebies, and somehow it seems Your rule, I must obey Instrumental You give me the Heebie Jeebies when you look at me Your stare just makes me cold (the heebie jeebies) You give me the Heebie Jeebies when you look at me It chills me to my bones Oh, you give me the Heebie Jeebies, in my darkest dreams It’s a dangerous game you play (the heebie jeebies) You give me the Heebie Jeebies, and somehow it seems Your rule, your rule Your rule, I must obey

She’s got something that’s unique Not too bitter not too sweet And a bubbly kind of personality She’s a sweet combination of love and rehydration Ice cold beer… I go for you I don’t want to stop When I’m with my Barley pop Cos she always puts a smile upon my face And when needs a wasting I’d rather be here tastin’ Ice cold beer… I go for you. (Ice cold beer) She’ll never let you down (Ice cold beer) She’ll never wear a frown for you And she’s always there to greet me at the end (of the day) When trouble starts to brew She’s soothing and so cool And will listen as she glistens in the light She’s a sweet combination of love and rehydration Ice cold beer… I go for you

There’s a certain kind of magic when I’m near you Could this be the feeling I must find They said my heart would yearn for someone Someone just like you I’ve been searching round the world for inspiration And I never thought this moment would arrive It’s clear that I was made for someone Someone just like you Just like you (just like you) Just like you (just like you) And I’m hoping that you feel the same way too If dreams come true then I can see the future I’ll be walking with my baby and she’ll say I’m so glad that I found someone Someone just like you

You got a smile that could win a thousand broken hearts You got the eyes of a saint with a pretty little face Your charm can seduce the deadliest of vixen, You bait them with just a look But you got plans a-scheming, all those fish to reel in It’s gotta be your way or no way at all The world is your play thing, people are the wagers You use and abuse, and cast aside You’re toxic, (oh you better run while you can) Poisonous, (don’t be part of his masterplan) Your criminal mind has a dangerous design Cos at the end of the day, You're a Toxic Nightmare Your pretty face hides a heart of black satin Your saint-like eyes, mask a demon inside Your charm is designed for Cosmic manipulations Lured to your deadly hook You got self-styled rules, you use to play the game You’re hell bent on damage and set out to destroy A one-track mind, tuned into destruction An expert, a villain to the end But Mr Machiavelli, don’t take long because Stories like yours they always end up the same You Lie and you cheat, but before too long The whole world will crumble down ‘til you’re down on your knees because You’re toxic, (oh you better run while you can) Ooh poisonous, (don’t be part of his masterplan) Your criminal mind has a dangerous design Cos at the end of the day, You're a Toxic Nightmare Baby you're a Toxic Nightmare Ooh you're a Toxic Nightmare Baby you're a Toxic Nightmare (Toxic)

Daddy's Girl 03:12
Well my Daddy he bought me a brand new Cadillac, And I went out dragging and I rode it right off the track When I get home through my front door I may not be Daddy’s girl no more My Daddy he bought me a brand new Cadillac (Cos she’s a) Daddy’s girl Yeah, I’m a Daddy’s girl And there ain’t no way I’m gonna do what I’m told He says I’ve gotta be in by seven But I never show my face ‘til way gone eleven But no matter what I do, I’ll always be my Daddy’s Girl Well my Daddy he bought me a brand new string of pearls Just to show his baby that she ain’t like the other girls Well I played my hand in a game of poker And I lost that chain to some low down joker My Daddy he bought me a brand new string of pearls (Cos she’s a) Daddy’s girl Yeah, I’m a Daddy’s girl And there ain’t no way I’m gonna do what I’m told He says don’t you get in no fights But I lose my cool most every night But no matter what I do, I’ll always be my Daddy’s Girl Instrumental Well my Daddy he told me to find myself a man A clean-cut boy that’ll do the best he can So I brought Billy home at the break of dawn With a big black eye and his shirt all torn My Daddy he told me to find myself a man (Cos she’s a) Daddy’s girl Yeah, I’m a Daddy’s girl And there ain’t no way I’m gonna do a thing I’m told He says I’ve gotta keep my face all clean But I tell my Daddy that just ain’t my scene But no matter what I do, I’ll always be my Daddy’s Girl

Fever 02:58
Never know how much I love you Never know how much I care When you put your arms around me I get a fever that's so hard to bear You give me fever, when you kiss me Fever when you hold me tight Fever in the mornin' Fever all through the night Sun lights up the day time Moon it lights up the night I light up when you call my name 'Cause I know you're gonna treat me right You give me fever when you kiss me Fever when you hold me tight Fever in the mornin' Fever all through the night Everybody's got that fever That is somethin' you all know Fever isn't such a new thing Fever started long time ago Romeo loved Juliet Juliet she felt the same When he put his arms around her He said, "Julie baby you're my flame" Thou givest fever with thy kisses Fever with thy flaming youth Fever I'm afire Fever yea I burn forsooth Captain Smith and Pocahontas Had a very mad affair When her daddy tried to kill him She said "Daddy no don't you dare" "He gives me fever with his kisses" "Fever when he holds me tight" "Fever, I'm his missus" "Now Daddy won't you treat him right?" Now you've listened to my story Here's the point that I have made Cats were born to give chicks fever Be it Fahrenheit or centigrade They give you fever with their kisses Fever if you live and learn Fever till you sizzle But What a lovely way to burn What a lovely way to burn What a lovely way to burn

about

Bamboozle Canterbury, UK

Bamboozle's alternative sound calls to mind a cross between the uncompromising vocals of Hayley Williams, the raw diversity of Chris Isaak and a splash of the attitude and fire of Tina Turner. Altogether, they delivers a heady blend of fun, post-rock, and ominous Americana that is both nostalgic and deeply modern. ... more
