Keep It Close To Me Lyrics


I want rock'n'roll
But, I don't want to deal with the hassle.
I know what I know but,
I don't want to feel like an asshole
It's direct, suspect,
Insects have launched an invasion.
Chosen, frozen,
Poison in my vaccination, yeah.
I'm gonna figure out what's mine
And Keep It Close To Me.

[Chorus]
Keep it close to me.
Keep it close to me.
Keep it close to me.
It's supposed to be, yeah.
It's supposed to be, yeah.

I've got rock'n'roll
And it used to deliver me sweetly.
I'm not gullible but,
I feel like I've lost it completely.
It's direct, suspect,
Insects have launched an invasion.
Chosen, frozen,
Poison in my vaccination,
Yeah. I'm gonna figure out what's mine
And keep it close to me.

[Chorus]

Let's make the most of it right now.
Let's make the most of what we've got,
God only knows where it came from.
Let's make the most of it right now.
Why is it hard to imagine
Making life worth the distraction from now on?

I'm gonna figure out what's mine
And keep it close to me.

[Chorus]

Keep It Close To Me
  • John Davis wrote this song as an anthem of backlash on what modern Pop music has become. The line, "Insects have launched an invasion" refers to the invasion of manufactured Pop divas such as Britney Spears.
  • The album was produced and engineered by Nick Raskulinecz, who is a good friend to the band. He went on to produce The Foo Fighters and Velvet Revolver.
  • The band recorded this album under stress of their former label Elektra breathing down their necks to write a 'summer-hit' much like their 1996 song "Sucked Out." Singer/songwriter John Davis was fed up with the lack of creative control and demanded to be severed from the label. Throughout the album you can hear the angst and disgust of what he feels the modern music world has become.
