What Do You Want Me to Say? - The Dismemberment Plan

Ah...great live band. 1993-2003 Maybe they will reunite (again)?

I lost my membership card to the human race
So don't forget the face
Because I know that I do belong here

Go down the checklist let's see:
Feelings are good
Dishonesty is bad
And keeping it inside is worse still

You want a problem well I guess we got one now
I really don't know how
There's injuns over every goddamn hill

What do you want me to say?
What do you want me to do?
To let you know that I do mean it
What do you want me to say?
What do you want me to do?
To let you know that I do mean it
What do you want me to say, yeah, yeah?

I see it coming from a million miles away
What else can I say?
The only way you know that I love you

And there's no eye-to-eye just Moses on the mount
Or I'm in for the count
You need your man above or below you

I cannot cry at will but I do wish I could
'Cause it'd do you some good
When every joke I make is treason

There was a time when you could make me laugh at will
And you can do it still
But never is it for the right reasons, yeah

What do you want me to say?
What do you want me to do?
To let you know that I do mean it
What do you want me to say?
What do you want me to do?
To let you know that I do mean it
What do you want me to say,
What do you want to hear?
To let you know that I do mean it
What do you want me to say, yeah?


What do you want me to say?
What do you want me to do?
To let you know that I do mean it
What do you want me to say?
What do you want me to do?
To let you know that I do mean it
What do you want me to say?
What do you want to hear?
To let you know that I do mean it.

What do you want me to say, yeah?

By Your Side - Beechwood Sparks

Exciting news this morning! (this is for you, and you know who you are)...

Off to California in a week to a wedding...made me think of these guys and their cover of this song.  

They are the tallest band I have ever seen, they look like two scarecrows in a cramped field onstage. 

You think I'd leave your side baby
You know me better than that
You think I'd leave you down when you're down on your knees
I wouldn't do that
'cause I'll tell you you're right when you want
and if only you could see into me

oh when you're cold
I'll be there
hold you tight to me

When you're on the outside baby and you can't get in
I will show you you're so much better than you know
when you're lost and you're alone and you can't get back again
I will find you darling and I'll bring you home

and if you want to cry
I am here to dry your eyes
and in no time
You'll be fine

You think I'd leave your side baby
You know me better than that
You think I'd leave you down when you're down on your knees
I wouldn't do that

I'll tell you you're right when you want

And if only you could see into me...


oh when you're cold
I'll be there
hold you tight to me
when you're low
I'll be there
by your side 

oh when you're cold
I'll be there
hold you tight to me

oh when you're low
I'll be there
by your side 

oh when you're low

I'll be there

by your side

oh when you're low

I'll be there 

by your side, baby

oh when you're low

I'll be there 

by your side, baby

Here is the original version live by Sade

Everybody's Down - No Age

Punk rock and Xanax...this one's for the kids. 

Not afraid of laughter
Sense of feeling too

All the things they feed with dirt
Make me feel like I can't do it

Everybody's down
Everybody's down

It's time to call someone to fall
But no one is around

I'm exhausted too Roy
Fighting for two bits

Makes me feel like I can't
Makes me feel like I can't do it

Everybody's down
Everybody's down

In every soul
In every town

Everybody's got me goin' ooooo
a-ooooo, a-ooooo, a-ooooo

We only hope when we're dead
Get no joy always hate within
