Lyrics Joshua James – The New Love Song
Text:
So you say you want a love song
One to move your feet onto
I’ll sing a real life tune
So you say you want a love song
I hope my little number will do…
So 1, 2, 3
Ohohoh…
Let’s stop our busy lives awhile
And think of the many many people
Across the many miles of earth
That have no clothes, no food to eat
And what about the air we breathe
To the food we eat
Are filled with things that kill
Our deaths are closer than we think
Well another silly love song could make me sick
About a stupid emo rocker and his messed up chick
Are we so deaf dumb and blind we can’t see the candlestick
Burning down
So ohohoh…
Oh she woke up on her Monday morn
It’s just another cup of coffee
In her run down place called home
She makes her way out to the car
The radio blares to drown
All the many many faces in her life
That at one time cared
But they have all moved away and gone
And now to work she goes
For all the perverse older men in our sickly generation
But they don’t, no they don’t give a damn
Well another silly love song could make me sick
About a stupid emo rocker and his messed up chick
Are we so deaf dumb and blind we can’t see the candlestick
Burning down
It’s burning down
Oh…
So ohohoh…
Open your souls, open your minds
‘Cause there are wonderful people in the world outside
So open your souls, open your minds
‘Cause there are wonderful people in the world outside
So open your souls, open your minds
‘Cause there are wonderful people in the world outside
So open your souls, yeah open your minds
Oh…
Well another silly love song could make me sick
I could say «hello,» but I want a conversation
I could love you till I’m dead but how long will I live
Till I’m down
Yeah, I’m burning down
Ooh…
