Sample Lives Lyrics by Ryan Power

Identity Picks

2013

Option one
Go out and have some
Option two
Stay in and skip through
Lazily the limbo in between
Each decision
(Ooh, yeah that's right)

Sample lives
I scratch the surface
Fifties style
I date with purpose
I will feel love
Yes you will
I can feel it right now

(In my heart) He's on the move
Out beyond time
He sets the mood
Tight groove design
(Coffee) He'll drink coffee
He'll smoke sweet leaf
(Sweet leaf) He'll pace around
What should he eat?
(Bacon) He'll fry some pig
He'll make a list
(Makin' love) Of girls to do
Of things he's missed
(Not too) He's famous for
Not being more
(Famous) Famous than he
Already is
(Gentle) A gentleman
A baby boy
(Baby) Searching for his
Lost favorite toy

Waa, waa, waa, waa, why cry?
Ready or not, I'm living my life
Say hey kid
You cannot forfeit the game
Or choose a new side

You can stay
Over at my house
But you must
Go sleep on the couch
You are so cute
But I'm not in the mood to
Complicate my heart

We could get together later
Going out, going out
I'd rather just stay friends and forego
The doubting and the shouting
We could make love sensually
Hot and wet, hot and wet
This would free the greedy little
Needy pest that says things he regrets

You need to go to therapy
If you can't get along with me
You need to learn how to communicate
Work as a team
I'm a pretty nice guy
So if you can't get along with me
You probably have a problem
I go to therapy, baby
You want to have a nice, easy day
A roll in the hay
I'll go jump into a lake
And ask the blonde in the dreadlocks
Out on a date
(You know the one I'm talking about)
Obviously, you don't have to listen to me
(I wouldn't)
But you're sounding more and more crazy
I think you need to go to therapy
Or just eat some ayahuasca

Waa, waa, waa, waa, why cry?
Ready or not, I'm living my life
Say hey kid
You cannot forfeit the game
Or choose a new side
