about

Part of Rod's history songs.

lyrics

You always wanted, to be something you're not,
You were always pretty, but you were never hot,
Satisfaction wasn't good enough, you needed bliss,
Tried to remember, but you could only reminisce.

You can cheat and you can lie,
Make them bleed or make them cry,
Pull the thunder from the sky,
But it don't mean nothing to me.

I remember when we first met, you punched me in the face,
An evil smile from ear to ear, in knee socks and lace,
I should have known to leave you alone, just walked away,
You knew one thing was true, I loved a good cliché.

You can cheat and you can lie,
Make them bleed or make them cry,
Pull the thunder from the sky,
But it don't mean nothing to me.

You once told me, you were an honest thief,
Then robbed me blind and left me behind, with my honest grief,
Now you've come looking for someone, to help you out,
And you're surprised when you look in my eyes, and only see my doubt.

You can cheat and you can lie,
Make them bleed or make them cry,
Pull the thunder from the sky,
But it don't mean nothing to me.

about

Bad Jacket San Francisco, California

We like memorable choruses and thematic riffs, so some might say there are elements of '80s indie-rock in our music. Guilty as charged.
