Sublime

Sublime was an American ska punk band from Long Beach, California, formed in 1986. The band's line-up, unchanged until their breakup, consisted of Bradley Nowell (vocals and guitar), Eric Wilson (bass guitar) and Bud Gaugh (drums and percussion). Michael 'Miguel' Happoldt also contributed on a few Sublime songs, such as "New Thrash". Lou Dog, Nowell's dalmatian, was the mascot of the band. Nowell died of a heroin overdose in 1996 and Sublime immediately split up. more »

She takes her time when it's time to get ready. 
Always has her way. 
Always leaves me waiting by the phone. 
She told me more than once to take it slow  
And I said OK. 
But lately I've been sleeping all alone. 
I'm not breaking up inside  
I'm much to proud to moan. 
Baby please come home. 

I feel a little lucky so I try to play it cool. 
I think she laughs inside. 
With the words that burn like fire in my mouth. 
Try to be a man like I got the master plan, night out on the town. 
Drink and dance and we can turn it out. 

Whoa, maybe it's how your body moves I just don't know, 
Maybe it's just the way you move so slow. 

[Hello?] 
[Hi it's me] 
[I thought I told you not to call me here] 
[I know I just really needed to talk to you] 
[Get a clue babe, there's nothing to talk about.] 

(Click!) 

Ask me why I play myself play myself for a fool. 
Swear I would do most anything. 
Walk a mile to see her smile. 
Walk a mile just to rock for a while. 
Babe I'm thinking with my ding-a-ling. 

Whoa, I've been doing some thinking, 
Now I just don't know. 
Maybe just the way you move so slow. 
Maybe 'cause you move so slow. 
Maybe 'cause you move so slow. 

But sitting on the verge of tears does not become my twenty two years. 
You took my shame, and you took my pride, 
And now you gonna take me for a slow ride. 

But uh, uh. Waiting, waiting on the phone. 
Got the words that burn like fire in my mouth. 
Come on down reggae style, 
Wind up your body like a bass line wild, 
Drink and dance and we can turn it out. 

Whoa, I'm not going crazy but I just don't know, 

Maybe 'cause you move so slow. [Repeat x3] 

Like love, 
Move nice and low. 

Slowride! [Repeat x3]

    Which of these lyrics is NOT by The Smiths, but by Morrissey?
    A Send at least one thoughtful letter, my heart goes out to you
    B Why pamper life's complexity, when the leather runs smooth on the passenger seat?
    C In the days when you were hopelessly poor, I just liked you more
    D Yes, we may be hidden by rags, but we've something they'll never have
