lyrics

BAD ADVICE
Night sky on the horizon is red
When the wind blows in from the west
And my ship has sailed, as the saying goes
Gonna put the gods to the test
She’s got a new guy
That can only explain
Why she’s suddenly being so nice
Listen to this girl just fanning my flame
I shouldn’t listen to her bad advice
Old blind eye
Won’t you look my way
See me through a jam
Lend me your instincts

I only listen to the bad advice, to the bad advice, to the bad advice, to the bad advice
I only listen to the bad advice, to the bad advice, to the bad advice, to the bad advice
Oooooooh...

This girl she left me tied to the tracks
But I deserve everything that I get
I was shootin’ off my mouth, so I just hold still
And now the train is comin’ around the bend
My only weapon is my pen
And you know I told you right from the start
All the things I regret and all my mistakes
Well, I still wouldn’t change any part of it
Chasing white whales
Takin’ them for a spin
On fantasy island

I only listen to the bad advice, to the bad advice, to the bad advice, to the bad advice
I only listen to the bad advice, to the bad advice, to the bad advice, to the bad advice
Oooooooh...

I’m a writer of songs and a poet at times
But inspiration keeps me wake in the night
‘Cuz it’s the sweetest dream when she’s kissing me
It’s so lame and I just can’t describe it
Her eyes are like pools for dudes to drown in
But her love is a block of ice
Still I try to pick away
Gonna burn out my light
As a tribute to the bad advice
Tomorrow, I’m getting better
Tomorrow, I let her go
But today, I love her forever

I only listen to the bad advice, to the bad advice, to the bad advice, to the bad advice
I only listen to the bad advice, to the bad advice, to the bad advice, to the bad advice
I only listen to the bad advice, to the bad advice, to the bad advice, to the bad advice
I only listen to the bad advice, to the bad advice, to the bad advice
