You Bet Your Life Lyrics


Just another hunter, like a wolf in the sun
Just another junkie on a scoring run
Just another victim of the things he has done
Just another day, in the life of a loaded gun

The odd get even, you name the game
The odds get even, the stakes are the same
You Bet Your Life

Just another winner, pours his life down the drain
Just another island in a hurricane
Just another loser, like a cat in the rain
Just another day, in the path of a speeding train

The odds get even, you name the game
The odds get even, the stakes are the same
You bet your life

Anarchist, reactionary, running-dog, revisionist
Hindu, Muslim, Catholic, creation, evolutionist
Rational, romantic, mystic, cynical, idealist
Minimal expressionist, post-modern, neo-symbolist

Armchair rocket scientist graffiti existentialist
Deconstruction primitive performance photo-realist
Be-bop or a one-drop or a hip-hop lite-pop-metallist
Gold adult contemporary urban country capitalist

Just another gypsy with a plastic guitar
Just another dancer with her eyes on the stars
Just another dreamer who was going too far
Just another drunk, at the wheel of a stolen car

The odds get even, you name the game
The odds get even, the stakes are the same
You bet your life

You Bet Your Life
  • In this song the delay is synched to the tempo. In the November, 1991 issue of Guitar Player magazine, Alex Lifeson explained: "I did it originally, then Stephen (the engineer) added a little bit more DDL to one of the other cleaner guitars to give it more energy. The song seemed quite same as we went through different sections - something was lacking. We wanted to get the first verse seesawing a little more. Edge, from U2, is a pro at that."

  • Vocalist Josh Franceschi explained the background of the song to Kerrang! magazine: "Lyrically, it deals with the people we knew when we were younger," he said. "Whenever we came back off tour, we'd go to a bar and there'd be 20 or 30 of our mates. As you get older, your world gets smaller, and you long for those days, but you recognize there was an element of falseness to it. I got a lot of things off my chest here."

    My Boyfriend's Back Lyrics


    My Boyfriend's Back and you're gonna be in trouble.
    (Hey, la-di-la, my boyfriend's back.)
    When you see him comin', better cut on the double.
    (Hey, la-di-la, my boyfriend's back.)
    You've been spreading lies that I was untrue.
    (Hey, la-di-la, my boyfriend's back.)
    So look out now 'cause he's comin' after you.
    (Hey, la-di-la, my boyfriend's back.)
    And he knows that you've been tryin',
    And he knows that you've been lyin'.

    He's been gone for such a long time.
    (Hey, la-di-la, my boyfriend's back.)
    Now he's back and things will be fine.
    (Hey, la-di-la, my boyfriend's back.)
    You're gonna be sorry you were ever born.
    (Hey, la-di-la, my boyfriend's back.)
    'Cause he's kinda big and he's awful strong.
    (Hey, la-di-la, my boyfriend's back.)
    And he knows about your cheatin',
    Now you're gonna get a beatin'.

    What made you think he'd believe all your lies?
    (Ah-oo, ah-oo.)
    You're a big man now, but he'll cut you down to size!
    (Ah-oo.)
    Wait and see!

    My boyfriend's back, he's gonna save my reputation

    (Hey, la-di-la, my boyfriend's back.)
    If I were you, I'd take a permanent vacation.
    (Hey, la-di-la, my boyfriend's back.)
    La-di-la, my boyfriend's back!
    La-di-la, my boyfriend's back!

    My Boyfriend's Back
  • The songwriting/production trio of Bob Feldman, Jerry Goldstein and Richard Gottehrer wrote this song and produced it. Bob Feldman was inspired to write this song after witnessing an altercation between a girl and a tough-looking boy who wore a leather jacket. The girl yelled at him for telling lies about her at school and actually said the two phrases that would become lyrics to the song, "My boyfriend's back and you're gonna be in trouble... you're gonna be sorry you were ever born." Feldman told Jerry Goldstein and Richard Gottehrer about the incident that night and they came up with one of the most legendary songs in the history of rock. (thanks, Jerro - New Alexandria, PA)
  • The version of this song universally played on Oldies radio is not the version that was a hit. There is an instrumental interlude in this version that was not present on the hit single. On the current version, "My boyfriend's back, he's gonna save my reputation" is heard twice - once before and once after the break. On the hit version, the ending section comes in immediately after the "hey la"'s that follow "If I were you I'd take a permanent vacation."
  • The Angels, in addition to having hits of their own, were much in demand as background vocalists on others' records. Perhaps their most famous outing in this regard is on Lou Christie's "Lightnin' Strikes," which featured Angel Peggy Santiglia. (thanks, Mike - Youngstown, OH, for above 2)
  • This was one of the last hits that followed the traditional model of a New York-based songwriting team creating a song for a girl group that would then record it based on a demo created for them. The Beatles, along with the other British invasion bands, wrote their own songs and shook up the established supply chain when it came to songs. The songwriters Feldman, Goldstein and Gottehrer found an interesting way to adapt: they started recording their own songs. Calling themselves The Strangeloves, they pretended to be a savage Australian act, as it made for a much better story. The result was hit songs "I Want Candy," "Night Time," and "Cara-lin."

  • Vocalist Josh Franceschi told Kerrang! magazine: "This is the biggest departure on the album what the band normally do. We didn't really feel it would work as a full song, so we made it into a little interlude."

    He added: "It's a love song about accepting your partner for who they are."
  • When Franceschi was laying down his vocals, producer Neal Avron (Fall Out Boy, New Found Glory) felt he wasn't chilled out enough, so the vocalist sarcastically offered to record them sitting outside. Avron took the bait and Franceschi recalled that he, "ended up sitting on a rocking chair in the garden, petting his dog and singing!"

    In A Big Country Lyrics


    I've never seen you look like this without a reason
    Another promise fallen through
    Another season passes by you
    I never took the smile away from anybody's face
    And that's a desperate way to look
    For someone who is still a child

    In A Big Country dreams stay with you
    Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
    Stay alive, here we go

    I thought that pain and truth were things that really mattered
    But you can't stay here with every single hope you had shattered
    I'm not expecting to grow flowers in a desert
    But I can live and breathe
    And see the sun in wintertime

    In a big country dreams stay with you
    Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
    Stay alive

    In a big country dreams stay with you
    Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
    Stay alive

    So take that look out of here it doesn't fit you
    Because it's happened doesn't mean you've been discarded
    Pull up your head off the floor, come up screaming
    Cry out for everything you ever might have wanted
    I thought that pain and truth were things that really mattered
    But you can't stay here with every single hope you had shattered, see ya
    I'm not expecting to grow flowers in a desert
    But I can live and breathe
    And see the sun in wintertime

    In a big country dreams stay with you
    Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
    Stay alive
    Ha, ha

    In a big country dreams stay with you
    Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
    Stay alive

    In a big country dreams stay with you
    Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
    Stay alive

    In A Big Country
  • Big Country were a group formed in Dunfermline, Scotland by ex-Skids Stuart Adamson (guitar/synthesizer/vocals), Bruce Watson (guitar), Tony Butler (bass), and Mark Brezicki (drums). Their first hit was "Fields Of Fire (400 Miles)" a Top 10 UK hit. "In A Big Country" was their next single; they went on to have three more UK Top 10 hits: "Chance", "Wonderland" and "Look Away."

    When they disbanded in 2000, Adamson became a country singer/songwriter, but got depressed after his second marriage collapsed. His wife declared him missing in November 2001 and the following month he was found hanged in a hotel room in Honolulu, Hawaii.
  • Good luck trying to made sense of this song (how exactly does a lover's voice fire the mountainside?). It's an anthemic number with loads of energy, driven by rapid-fire drums and emotive guitar. Lead singer Stuart Adamson explained that Big Country was not a "message band," and that they were happy if listeners could dance to their songs or identify with them in some way.
  • Steve Lillywhite produced this track. This came at a time when he was emerging as one of the top producers in the business, known for his work with Peter Gabriel and U2.
  • In America, this was the only Big Country hit of significance; it didn't garner much radio play, but the video was huge on MTV, which was two years old and becoming a cultural force. The network ignored the group's next US single, "Fields of Fire," which tanked their efforts in America.
  • The video was directed by Lindsey Clennell, who was one of the first to ply this trade. Some of his other credits include videos for The Clash ("White Riot," "1977"), Black Sabbath ("Trashed," "Zero the Hero") and the Stranglers ("Golden Brown," "No More Heroes").

    Wild Ones
  • This is the closing track of You Me At Six's fourth album, Cavalier Youth. The band's singer, Josh Franceschi, told Kerrang! magazine: "I did a lot of takes with 'Wild Ones' before everybody was happy with it. In the past, I'd write my lyrics, record them and say, 'right, finished.' It wasn't an open forum. This time we were a lot more open. We wanted the other guys to push us, and the lyrics you hear on this song were actually we recorded on my birthday. Originally I'd taken it off, and I was going to go spend the day with my girlfriend! That shows the desire we had to make the best album we possibly could."

    I Got A Woman Lyrics




    I Got A Woman
  • This is a re-worked, secular version of a Gospel song called "My Jesus Is All the World to Me." It was the first hit song to use secular lyrics in a Gospel style. Some people consider this fusion of R&B, Gospel and Jazz was the first ever Soul record.
  • Ray Charles wrote this with his bandleader Renald Richard after hearing a spiritual on the radio while his band was on the road.
  • The mix of Gospel in Blues on this track was shocking in some circles, but also made the song accessible to a wider audience. The decision to mix styles happened organically. "I was just being myself," Charles said. "Of course it created a lot of static from a lot of people. But then, on the other hand, it was a hit. It was a hit in the black community and the white community."
  • In this song, Charles sings about a very supportive woman who helps him out in many ways. In 2005, Kanye West based sampled this for his #1 hit "Gold Digger." West's song, however, is about a girl who is after a guy for his money. There's a bit of a disconnect, as West used Charles' line "She gives me money, when I'm in need."
  • In 1962, the Philadelphia Jazz organist Jimmy McGriff recorded an instrumental version of this song that charted at #20 in the US. Known for his unique organ sound and Gospel influence, McGriff was a popular performer on the R&B club circuit until his retirement in 2007. He died at age 72 on May 25, 2008 of complications from multiple sclerosis. (thanks, Bertrand - Paris, France)

    Tymps (the Sick in the Head Song) Lyrics


    Tymps (the Sick in the Head Song)
  • "Tymps" in this case is short for "timpani," which are kettle drums. Fiona wrote the song on a portable Yamaha electric keyboard she had at home, which is something she rarely does, since most of her writing is on a piano. The song had a timpani sound, which is how it got the title.

    Brian Kehew , who co-produced the Extraordinary Machine album, told us: "It was a temporary title for it called 'Tymps,' because that's how we referenced the song. Then it eventually got subtitled 'Sick in the Head,' because that was one of the funny lyrics in it. But she wrote it that way and it inspired her to create something different than she might have done on the piano."
  • In this song, Fiona looks back on some poor decisions she made regarding a love interest, and wonders if it was love or insanity that was responsible for her actions. Like she did on another track from the album - "Red Red Red" - she sings in colors on this one: "The red isn't the red we painted, it's just rust."
  • The Extraordinary Machine album was leaked on the internet months before its official release. "Tymps" did not appear on the leaked version.

    True Lyrics


    Huh huh huh hu-uh huh

    So True funny how it seems
    Always in time, but never in line for dreams.
    Head over heels when toe to toe.
    This is the sound of my soul,
    This is the sound.
    I bought a ticket to the world,
    But now I've come back again.
    Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
    Oh I want the truth to be said.

    Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
    I know this much is true.
    Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
    I know this much is true.

    With a thrill in my head and a pill on my tongue
    Dissolve the nerves that have just begun.
    Listening to Marvin (all night long.)
    This is the sound of my soul,
    This is the sound.
    Always slipping from my hands,
    Sand's a time of its own.
    Take your seaside arms and write the next line.
    Oh I want the truth to be known.

    Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
    I know this much is true.
    Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
    I know this much is true.

    I bought a ticket to the world,
    But now I've come back again.
    Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
    Oh I want the truth to be said.

    Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
    I know this much is true.
    Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
    I know this much is true.

    This much is true.

    I know, I know, I know this much is true.

    True
  • The lyrics for this song were inspired by a crush Spandau Ballet's Gary Kemp had on Altered Images singer and Gregory's Girl star Clare Grogan: "I was infatuated with Clare Grogan," he told The Guardian. "I met her on Top of the Pops and, at one point, travelled up to Scotland to have tea with her and her mum and dad. Although my feelings were unrequited and the relationship was platonic, it was enough to trigger a song,"
  • Some phrases in the lyrics were adapted from the novel Lolita , a copy of which Clare Grogan had given Gary Kemp. "The lyrics are full of coded messages to Clare," Kemp told The Guardian. "I'm still berated for the line 'Take your seaside arms' but it's straight out of Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov, which she had given me as a present – although in the book, it's 'seaside limbs. The line 'With a thrill in my head and a pill on my tongue' is also a bastardisation of Nabokov."
  • One of the song's producers, Tony Swain, recalls in 1000 UK #1 Hits by Jon Kutner and Spencer Leigh, "We made the True album in the Bahamas and I am sure that a lot of that place got into the album. True was not a complicated song but it has really got something. There is something timeless about it: it has had over 2 million radio plays in America and it has been used in the wedding scenes for lots of films. It's very nice to have made a record that has lasted that long and I still feel good about it."
  • This was a huge worldwide hit, going to #1 in 21 countries.
  • The video for this song helped its chart fortunes considerably. Directed by Russell Mulcahy, it got lots of airtime on MTV, which was just two years old at the time.

    There was plenty of production value, but no real storyline in the video, which was intentional. Gary Kemp explained: "I didn't want to dictate what 'True' should be like. I'm sure when people hear that record they've got their own idea of what it means and what it looks like. So we just performed it, and lit it well – shooting light through water and broken glass – and it worked."
  • P.M. Dawn sampled this on their 1991 hit "Set Adrift On Memory Bliss." It was also sampled on Nelly's 2004 song "N Dey Say."
  • This has been used in a number of movies and TV shows, including The Wedding Singer, Sixteen Candles, Wedding Crashers, The Office, Spin City and The Simpsons. (thanks, Fulu Thompho - limpopo, South Africa)
  • Gary Kemp wrote of the song on his website: "I wanted to write a soul song a la Al Green or Marvin Gaye. I still remember sitting on my bed at my parents' house writing it on guitar and calling Martin (his brother and Spandau Ballet bass player) in to listen to it. It became a song about trying to write a love song to someone who didn't know your true thoughts, but how difficult it is to spell out your feelings without seeming too foolish."

    "We never realized the full potential of this song until we started to record it at Compass Point. On the ECD's home movie footage of Nassau you can see the moment where we're playing back the song, half finished, in the studio, and everybody, including the roadies, are singing along to it. It was at that moment that I knew we had something special."
  • The saxophone solo was by the band's Steve Norman. He told The Guardian: "The solo is actually a composite of two takes. I'd only been playing a year and was listening to Grover Washington Jr's 'Just The Two Of Us' with Bill Withers, over and over. The solo is a reply to that: at the key change things just lift off, giving the song a moment of elation."

  • Brett Eldredge co-wrote this song with Nashville songwriters Ross Copperman and Heather Morgan. It was inspired by a time he spent in the Bahamas with his brother. The siblings borrowed a small boat to go island hopping and feed swimming pigs when they came upon a beautiful girl floating on a raft in the back of a yacht. "We're going to these pigs and we've got this bucket of slop and we're so excited and then we see this beautiful girl floating on a raft, heaven's light is shining on her," Eldredge recalled to Radio.com . "There's no one around that area and we're like, 'We've got to go see what's going on.' We drive our little dinghy boat up closer and closer to see this girl and she's right up there behind this giant yacht. Two scary guys pop up out of the giant yacht and we're like, 'OK, we better take this dinghy boat and go feed these pigs.'"

    "I told my brother, if I were to have ever met that girl, I would have liked to write a song about how we met and falling in love to the beat of the music came up about that," he continued. "I wrote that song with a couple buddies of mine when I got back to Nashville."
  • The song's music video was directed by Shane Drake (Little Big Town's "Tornado," Tim McGraw's "Highway Don't Care"). Though the song's storyline is set in Mexico, the clip was actually filmed in Staniel Cay in the Bahamas, where Eldredge was first inspired to pen the tune. The beautiful blonde who the singer makes out with at the end of the clip is played by model Katie Luddy.

    So I told a friendly star
    The way that dreamers often do
    Just how wonderful you are
    And why I'm so in love with you

    Now I shout it from the highest hills
    Even told the golden daffodils
    At last my heart's an open door
    And my secret love's no secret anymore

    P-I, M-P, ology, but logically
    We learning these hoes biology, and obviously, well

    Do you want to ride?
    In the backseat, of a Caddy
    Chop it up, with Do or Die

    Do you want to ride?
    In the backseat, of a Caddy
    Chop it up, with Do or Die

    Well a motherfucker might be broke and shit
    And then collecting no dough from tips
    But I be spitting mo' game than a mouthful of poker chips
    To get them hoes with the Oprah lips and the provoking hips
    And never gotta tell her many lies
    I been looking in the city skies, get up in the kitty's thighs
    'Cause I'm blessed with a look of innocence, good sex
    Peanut butter complex and some pretty eyes
    Pity cries on my strategy side, yo when out of me gotta be
    Right, that'd be the flatter me right
    But if the head the bonk come on suck a nigga dick
    Members of my click, want to see what that'd be like
    I know you want to try it out, to the rhythm of a high hat
    Don't be bogus and deny that
    I done got a hold of them my fellas on the train
    While she lie back, now motherfucker can you bow down?
    Where your ride at? On the passenger side of your hoes
    Trying to come up on another G
    The broad all up under me trying to smother me
    Looking lovely while I roll another bead, suddenly
    She learned that I don't deal with emotions
    But when we in the room she rubbing me with lotion
    She come like an ocean coasting have a cigarette thinking
    Me and Do or Die dig drinking love potion
    The word that was never said
    Twisted be giving women dick in the bed
    Until they sick in the head, and if I ever leave whoever dead
    They ain't tricking the Feds or spitting game
    But it's chicken and bread
    Kicking them legs in the air like a player do
    Then be little in a day or two
    After words I'm slay a crew, now that's some pimp type shit
    That be Low and AK'll do, wearing gray and blue
    If a hoe want to holler then you a player if you hit them ends
    And get the dividends but you a pimp if you can get
    The same hoe to want to freak your friends
    'Cause I studied P-I, M-P, ology, but logically
    Be learning these hoes biology, obviously, well

    Do you want to ride?
    In the backseat, of a Caddy
    Chop it up, with Do or Die

    Do you want to ride?
    In the backseat, of a Caddy
    Chop it up, with Do or Die

    Do you want to ride with me
    Come and ride with me
    Baby come and ride with me
    Baby come and ride with me, Do or Die
