Kings Of Leon - Joe's Head

Blistered cracked and bleeding
Cold no one should know
Rain falls down a freezing
And sticking like a snow
Lingering suspicions
Screaming in my head
Lies all mixed up with omissions
Aw welcome home again
It's too late for apologies they're falling at my feet

This is just the way of the world Joe said
I had to put a bullet into his head
Then lit up a cigarette
Decided to call his fat friend Fred
Well he said Fred I just killed a man
Caught him laying with my girlfriend
Now they're both dead, people can be so cold when they're dead

Calling all the neighbors
Time to make amends
Whiskey floods the table
Aw good friends 'til the end
They're making silly faces and it's tasting bitter sweet

This is just the way of the world Joe said
I had to put a bullet into his head
Then lit up a cigarette
Decided to call his fat friend Fred
Well he said Fred I just killed a man
Caught him laying with my girlfriend
Now they're both dead, people can be so cold when they're dead

Kings Of Leon - When You See Yourself, Are You Far Away

This space in time, this bated breath
I've seen your kind at your very best
This long goodbye is overdue
You never came, when I called on you

The bastard wind is on your back
The rabid dog has caught your track
The golden age of old advice
Don't give no cause or alibi

One more night, one more night will you stay here
One more night, one more night we'll be safe dear
One more night, one more night
One more night, one more night will you stay here
One more night will you stay here

We've crystalized, it's dawned on you
You have the face of someone new
The pleasures of this life I'm told
Will spit you out in the middle of the road
A scenic place the sky grows cold

One more night, one more night will you stay here
One more night, one more night we'll be safe dear
One more night, one more night
One more night, one more night will you stay here
One more night will you stay here

One more night, one more night will you stay here
One more night, one more night will you stay here
One more night will you stay here

Ooh
When you see yourself, are you far away?
Is it night or day?
Ooh
When it comes to you if you reach the moon
Can I be there too?
Ooh
When you see yourself, are you far away?
Is it night or day?
Ooh
When it comes to you, if you reach the moon
Can I be there too?

Kings Of Leon - Split Screen

Another modern innovation
This time i mean it
A hazard of the occupation
Desire when needed
Set it down before you break it
This house ain't for children
Doing jumping jacks in the basement
These arms are reaching out

Hyperventilation
If i could be so bold
All the time

The weight of the feather
You fall like a leaf
Is this a middle of the night call
A revelation on a split screen
To see all the color
Run from your eyes
Is this a middle of a life thought
A revelation on a split screen

I discern some reservation
Distain to put the boys in
At the face of obligation
The pain is in the poison
Unprescribed medication
Big plan let’s cancel
I’m a fan of your extensions
Your hair is like a puzzle

Hyperventilation
If i could be so bold
All the time

The weight of the feather
You fall like a leaf
Is this a middle of the night call
A revelation on a split screen
To see all the color
Run from your eyes
Is this a middle of a life thought a revelation on a split screen

Out in the shadows
The fields are moving
You pack up your head case
And move the needle
Out in the shadows
The fields are moving
You pack up your head case
And move the needle round
Move the needle round
Move the needle round

Kings Of Leon - Mustang

If you’re free tomorrow don’t make any plans
We can go to sylvan park and kick over trash cans
Love is all around me everywhere I turn
Is that the smell of fall or the city burned

There’s a mustang in the city
And it's calling me out
Are you a mustang or a kitty
What are you all about

There’s a golden globe in my office space
A muscle magazine next to the toilet
I’m getting big and strong just thinking about it
And I can feel the heat of the water rise

There’s a mustang in the city
And it's calling me out
Are you a mustang or a kitty
What are you all about

I saw em operating on the kid downstairs
I could not be bothered to pretend to care
I like to watch you eat in front of the camera
And there’s a misty morning in your eyes

There’s a mustang in the city
And it's calling me out
Are you a mustang or a kitty
What are you all about
It’s just a mistake and a pity
And its drowning the crowd
Are you a mustang or a kitty
Are you a mustang or a kitty

There was something amiss in your apology

There’s a mustang in the city
And it's calling me out
Are you a mustang or a kitty
What are you all about
It’s a mistake and a pity
Dragging me down
Are you a mustang or a kitty
Are you a mustang or a kitty

Kings Of Leon - Rainbow Ball

Got my old friend back
He was gone quite a while
I won't stand for that
Good times
Were had
By all

At the rainbow ball
We took every ride
Never paid no mind
We held
Our breath
We crossed that line

Get some though love
Sweetheart it's just bad luck
Playback rewind
I take my time

On the 4th we ran
With our heads weighed down
Big men were all around
Our bet
Had died
Outside

Only good vibrations at the rainbow ball
Sweet vibration
Only good vibrations

Get some
Tough love
Sweetheart
It's just bad luck
Single cab
Times up
I did it all
For the love
Heartburn
Love tap
Grass stain
On your chinstrap
Dead stiff
Upper lip
Honeybee
On the night shift

There’s only good vibrations
At the rainbow ball
Sweet vibration
Only good vibrations at the rainbow ball
Only good vibrations

Get some
Tough love
Sweetheart
It’s just bad luck
Single cab
Nightshift
Dead stiff
Upper lip
Nerd alert
Buzzkill
Honeybee
Gotta oil spill
Heartburn
Love tap
Grass stain
On your chinstrap

Kings Of Leon - Nothing To Do

There is panic on the streets
Man is obsolete
The wires got crossed and now we don’t speak
There’s a deer in the pool
And sperrys on the line
He’s looking for directions
Tell me is this your place or mine
And the kid is getting tall
He’s running up the wall
On the list of complaints is you don’t call
Cause you
You want nothing to do with love
You want nothing to do with love
I got the message
It’s only legend after all
Nothing to do with
Touched by the thunder
And kissed by the rain
I’m a man on a mission of going insane
There’s a gold in the breeze
It’s running in your hair
Is it in my head is neither here nor there
And a picture framed of the day we met
It’s a mystery
How could i forget that you
You want nothing to do with love
You want nothing to do with love
I got your message
I got the number off the wall
You want nothing to do with love
Nothing to do with love
You want nothing to do with love
Nothing to do with love
Nothing to do with love
There is panic on the streets
Man is obsolete
Our wires got crossed and now we don’t

Kings Of Leon - Time in Disguise

Blind attraction, chain reaction
What you have is mine
Persian ivy running wildly
Ashes left behind
Come a little closer, come a little… closer now to the edge
Winds are blowing, fires glowing
Dancing in your head

Grand occasion conversation
Light the crowded room
No one knows which way we’re going
But we’ll get there soon
Run from the mountain, poison the fountain
Just for the peace of mind
Back of the alley, they seem to rally
All people of their kind

Close your eyes and what do you see
Is it a man or a masked machine
Is the world I belong to or just a shade of light
It's just time in disguise

Congregated late arrival only passing through
Prairie garden cold and hardened
Waiting here for you
So come a little closer, come a little closer…closer now to the edge
Bold distraction taking action
Going where you’re led

Close your eyes and what do you see
Is it a man or a masked machine
Is the world I belong to or just a shade of light

It's just time in disguise

Come a little closer… come a little close, closer now to the edge
Winds are blowing Fire is glowing
Dancing in your head

Close your eyes and what do you see
Is it a man or a masked machine
Is the world I belong to or just a shade of light
It’s just time in disguise

Come a little closer, come a little closer

Kings Of Leon - Golden Restless Age

You smile
Your lips beguile
You look impeccable
Cutting through the room like a knife
Sharpened leather fastened tight
Oh so insatiable

Such a sight
An apparition holding tight
Never to shy from the scene
Splash of sound
Just a bellow bouncing 'round
There is a quiet to your scream

They fall, you rise
It's here, your time

The golden restless age
And time won't turn the page
You're only passing through a form of you
I look in your eyes and therе's a rage
And time won't turn the pagе
It hits you headlong to go it alone

See the eyes how they shimmer
And how they shine
It's only personal
I watch you fall, at breakneek speed
Lie in wait
Aching to feel it all

The cause - effect
The line is set

The golden restless age
And time won't turn the page
You're only passing through a form of you
I look in your eyes and there's a rage
And time won't turn the page
It hits you headlong to go it alone

They fall, you rise
It's here, your time

The golden restless age
And time won't turn the page
You're only passing through a form of you
I look in your eyes and there's a rage
And time won't turn the page
It hits you headlong to go it alone

Kings Of Leon - The Immortals

The open road, the path of greatness

It’s at your fingers

Go be the one that keeps on fighting

Go be the stranger

Just put your foot in front’ the other

Crow like the rooster

We are allowed to get us something

Free as a danger

I say

Spill on the streets of stars

Ride away

Find out what you are

Face to face

The windows are

The perfect picture

They’re always changin

Go on get lost

Jump in the waters

when they are raging

I say

Spill on the streets of stars

ride away

Find out what you are

Face to face

Once you’ve had enough

Carry on

Don’t forget to love

before you’re gone

Spill on the streets of stars

ride away

Find out what you are

Face to face

Once you’ve had enough

Carry on

Don’t forget to love

before you’re gone

Kings Of Leon - 17

Oh she's only seventeen

Whine whine whine, weep over everything

Bloody Mary breakfast busting up the street

Brothers fighting, when's the baby gonna sleep

Heaving ship too sails away

Said it's a culmination of a story and a goodbye session

It's a tick of our time and the tic in her head that made me feel so strange

So I could call you baby, I could call you, dammit, it's a one in a million

Oh it's the rolling of your Spanish tongue that made me wanna stay

Oh she's only seventeen

Whine whine whine, weep over everything

Bloody Mary breakfast busting up the street

Brothers fighting, when's the baby gonna sleep

Heaving ship too sails away

Said it's a culmination of a story and a goodbye session

It's a tick of our time and the tic in her head that made me feel so strange

Said I could call you baby, I could call you, dammit, it's a one in a million

Oh it's the rolling of her Spanish tongue that made me wanna stay

I could call you baby, I could call you, dammit, it's a one in a million

Oh it's the rolling of your Spanish tongue that made me wanna stay

Kings Of Leon - On Call

She said call me now baby, and I'd come a running.

She said call me now baby, and I'd come a running.

If you'd call me now, baby then I'd come a running.

I'm on call, to be there.

Kings Of Leon - Echoing

Waking early in the morning
Waiting on the light of day
Whole new kind of feeling is on the way
I'm not scared of knowing
If we're ever getting out
We could be here forever without a doubt

Time is often higher learning
I'm still barely making grades
Just about imagination anyway

We are circling the wagons
Lining up in the single file
Members of the jury are standing trial

Waiting on a memory
Waiting on a memory

Said if you love me and you're willing to dance
We could take it to the high seas
Echoing, echoing where do we stand

My heart's hard of hearing
My head's fill of sand
Feet point both directions if you need a hand

Black water reflection
Lost in a city park
I can't find my way through the dark

Waiting on a memory
Waiting on a memory

Said if you love me and you're willing to dance
We could take it to the high seas
Echoing, echoing where do we stand
We'll be sailing on a wild breeze
If you love me and you're willing to dance
We could take it to high seas
Echoing, echoing, echoin

Kings Of Leon - Genius

Everybody wants to be a showman
Yeah they all got another one
Everybody thinks they got a genius
Everybody got me on the run
Sometimes I think they come here
Just so you can say that you can
And I can't get alone in my bathroom
I need to give myself a hand

Ya'll cuh-cuh-cuh-creepin'
Creepin' underneath my skin
Fuck you and your flashbulbs
Snappin' my picture again
You drank all my whiskey
You stole all my smoke
And you're crowded all around me
Like I got nowhere to go

Eyes are gonna roll back
I'm here to kill
Time for you to go
I'm-a-gon' spill
It ain't yo fast train
I'll be the king runnin' near the wheel
I ain't lookin' to make no deals here no

You keep stickin' to me like a prickly porcupine
You're gettin' your information from the grocery checkout line
Are you through confessin' of your little girl obsession
'Cause I was only messin' and I had a little time

Kings Of Leon - The Bandit

Chiseled their names in stone
Heavy the load you tow
And the red horse is always close
And the fire don't burn below

Two hundred miles to clear
Chasing a sound I hear
When the call brings them all to tears
And the hopes they all turn to fears

And they're walking around
With their heads in the cloud screaming
Must catch the bandit
Reckless abandon
Rundown and stranded
Must catch the bandit

Tracks in the dirt for days
Sniff out the fire ablaze
And the red door, it seems to sway
And it carries a heavy weight

And they're walking around
With their heads in the cloud screaming
Must catch the bandit
Reckless abandon
Rundown and stranded
Must catch the bandit

And they're walking around
With their heads in the cloud screaming
Must catch the bandit
Reckless abandon
Rundown and stranded
Must catch the bandit

Kings Of Leon - Tonight

Tonight, somebody's lover is gonna pay for his sin

It's coming on, it's coming on

I don't know, just what is leading me

Or if time is on my side

It's coming on, it's coming on

I don't know why I keep acting this way

Everybody knows it's strange

Give me something along the way

Something along the way

When I see lights on Broadway

I know it's gonna be a long night

It's coming on, it's coming on

I don't know why I keep acting this way

Everybody knows it's strange and

Give me something along the way

Something along the way

A hole in my head, I can fill it all

The neon lights my way

Give me something along the way

Give me something along the way

(Tonight, I'm gonna leave my body)

(Tonight, I'm gonna leave my body)

Tonight, somebody's lover is gonna pay for his sin

It's coming on, It's coming on

I don't know why I keep acting this way

Everybody knows it's strange

Give me something along the way

Something along the way

A hole in my head, I can fill it all

Neon lights my way

Give me something along the way

Give me something along the way

Gonna leave my body

Tonight, I'm gonna leave my body

Kings Of Leon - Conversation Piece

Take me back to California

To those crystal neon signs

Where the traveling sensations

Are all blinded by the light

There are eyes in every corner

Bloated brains and rotten smiles

There are coats of many colors

Flying high up in the sky

Won't you come 'round my way for some conversation, please?

Won't you come 'round my way, it's a conversation piece

Look at all these shattered faces

They all look so out of place

They've got nothing left to live for

They'll be dead before they wake

I'd love to know just what you're thinking

Tell me what I ought to do

I will never leave you lonely

You're the one I'm running to

Get me out of California

Take me off into the blue

We could make it out together

To the place that's calling you

Won't you come 'round my way for some conversation, please?

Won't you come 'round my way, it's a conversation piece

Won't you come 'round my way for some conversation, please?

Won't you come 'round my way for some conversation, please?

Oh, won't you come 'round my way, it's a conversation piece

Kings Of Leon - Velvet Snow

Walking like you're stuck in velvet snow

Walking like you're stuck in velvet snow

Starting on your story and I'll go

Walking like you're stuck in velvet snow

Glowing 'cause you're sweating on the floor

Glowing 'cause you're sweating on the floor

Dancing like you'll never dance no more

Glowing 'cause you're sweating on the floor

And then you go, and when you go,

You get to going way too fast, and I'm so slow

Turn out the lights, she's coming to fight,

And then she'll go

Death row smoking getting to your face

Death row smoking getting to your face

Showing off your something shaved and lacy,

Death row smoking getting to your face

And then you go, and when you go,

You get to going way too fast, and I'm so slow

Turn out the lights, she's coming to fight,

And then she'll go

And then you go, and when you go,

You get to going way too fast, and I'm so slow

Turn out the lights, she's coming to fight,

And then she'll go

Little Jo, she warned me not to call you,

Stoked that you were carrying some bad news

Leave it up to me and I'll just drown you,

Out into the city where you came from

Kings Of Leon - Eyes On You

Out here looking for the good life
Tongue in my cheek and your back in my knife
I keep pushing through
My eyes are right on you

Everyone says you should get away
Fast as you can, but I know you'll stay
Never fall behind
He's always on your mind

You're somewhere I wanna go
Nice and swift as we take it slow
Oh we're on our way
Don't ever hesitate

I'll hide in the dark in the back of your brain
Laughing aloud as we go insane
No time to waste
I never come too late

If you don't like it, then try it
You don't like it, then try it
Oh, I believe it when I see it
I believe it when I see it

You're my misfit and I'm your freak
Dance all night 'til our knees go weak
We can shut this place down
No one else is around

I try hard to understand
The crush of the world in the palm of your hand
You know we sit just right
Let's run away from the light

If you don't like it, then try it
If you don't like it, then try it
Well babe, I believe it when I see it
I believe it when I see it

Tongue in your cheek and back in my knife
Out here looking for the good life
Keep on pushing through
I got eyes on you
Baby, you know we're on our way
Misfit and freak every single day
Sitting ten feet tall
Let's go take it all

If you don't like it, then try it
You don't like it, then try it
I know you can see it, I believe it
You can see it, I believe it

We're here for the moment, so let's own it
For the moment, so let's own it
It's here for the taking, why you waiting?
It's good loving, it's worth making

Kings Of Leon - Comeback Story

Picking up the pieces of the world I know
With one in the fire and one in the snow
It's a comeback story of a lifetime
A comeback story of a lifetime

I'm bent on believing everything is alright
I break with the day and I bend with the night
It's a comeback story of a lifetime
A comeback story of a lifetime

I walked a mile in your shoes
And now I'm a mile away
And I've got your shoes

The bright of the lights they are burning me out
Everyone says it's a lovely sound
I don't know where they are leading me
Trying my best hoping that you'll see

I walked a mile in your shoes
And now I'm a mile away
And I've got your...

I walked a mile in your shoes
Now I'm a mile away
And I've got your shoes

You'll rue the day when you understand
I did my best to be an honest man
The race isn't over til the finish line
It's the comeback story of a lifetime

I walked a mile in your shoes
And now I'm a mile away
And I've got your shoes
Now I'm a mile away
And I've got your shoes
Now I'm a mile away

Kings Of Leon - No Money

Won't you give me something I need
Won't you peel me off of the street
Go and wet my tongue
Spit me up and break me a fever

Give me something I can believe in
Give me something, to walk me away
I'm a waste of time
And all in all waste of a living
Waste of a living

Can't you see me walking alone
I've been down to the horns and back
And I'm way too tired
Of blowing out the burning candles

I got no money, but I want you so
I got no money, but I want you so
I got so much I cannot handle
Cannot handle
I cannot handle

And all this pissin' around
Cut loose in this fucking town
I ain't coming back
I got my ticket on to the next one

I got no money, but I want you so
I got no money, but I want you so
And I want and I want and I want and I want it
