Academic, The - Bear Claws Lyrics






I know it's a little old-fashioned
Holding hands, now start your romancin'
Show me all your flaws
Show me your bear claws
Go rip your heart out tonight
You don't have to be cool to make me shiver
Look in my eyes, can I make this any clearer?

Just a late-night girl, calling through a phone
She never really loved you so just leave her alone
Your mama says it's over when you come through the door
Saying "That's enough of you now won't you shut your mouth"
Ay, ohh, I'll never let you go
Ay, ohh, I'll never let you go

You say goodbye as if you're leaving on a plane
You've seen the clouds and how the shapes are so strange
But not a boy in the backseat, staying in the backseat
Tryin' to make sense of it all
Saying "We were such a good thing, we were such a good thing
How could you let this fall?"
Take all my money and meet me on the sidewalk
If you don't show then I'll know

Just a late-night girl, calling through a phone
She never really loved you so just leave her alone
Your mama says it's over when you come through the door
Saying "That's enough of you now won't you shut your mouth"
Ay, ohh, I'll never let you go
Ay, ohh, I'll never let you go
Ay, ohh, I'll never let you go
Ay, ohh, I'll never let you go
Show me all your flaws, show me your bear claws
Go rip your heart out tonight

You're just a late-night girl, calling through a phone
She never really loved you so just leave her alone
Your mama says it's over when you come through the door
Saying "That's enough of you now won't you shut your mouth
That's enough of you, kid, now you're going South, love."
Ay, ohh, I'll never let you go
Ay, ohh, I'll never let you go
Ay, ohh, I'll never let you go
Ay, ohh, I'll never let you go (go rip your heart out tonight)
Ay, ohh, I'll never let you go

    If you all like them, check my stuff out. I went through a huge depression, for years, got destroyed financially, socially, mentally, and emotionally. Here's my new song after not writing for years. This song inspired me to get back on the mic/guitar. Love you all, stay strong and never let someone else decide your worth. @VEVO I'm open to deals https://youtu.be/AoXbjOMP6EU

    Going to see ye in June can’t wait 🤪👍

  22. H.... G....

    Eu sei que é um pouco antiquado
    De mãos dadas, agora comece seu romancin '
    Mostre-me todas as suas falhas

    Mostre-me suas garras de urso
    Vá rasgar seu coração esta noite
    Você não precisa ser legal para me fazer tremer
    Olhe nos meus olhos, posso tornar isso mais claro?

    Apenas uma menina de fim de noite, ligando para o telefone
    Ela nunca realmente te amava, então deixe-a sozinha
    Sua mãe diz que acabou quando você entra pela porta
    Dizendo: é o suficiente de você agora, você não vai fechar a boca?
    Eh, woah, nunca vou deixar você ir
    Eh, woah, nunca vou deixar você ir

    Você diz adeus como se estivesse saindo em um avião
    Você viu as nuvens e como as formas são tão estranhas
    Mas não um garoto no banco de trás, ficando no banco de trás
    Tentando dar sentido a isso tudo
    Dizendo "fomos tão bons, fomos tão bons
    Como você pode deixar isso cair? "
    Pegue meu dinheiro e me encontre na calçada
    Se você não mostrar, então vou saber

    Apenas uma menina de fim de noite, ligando para o telefone
    Ela nunca realmente te amava, então deixe-a sozinha
    Sua mãe diz que acabou quando você entra pela porta
    Dizendo: é o suficiente de você agora, você não vai fechar a boca?
    Eh, woah, nunca vou deixar você ir
    Eh, woah, nunca vou deixar você ir
    Eh, woah, nunca vou deixar você ir
    Eh, woah, nunca vou deixar você ir
    Mostre-me todas as suas falhas, me mostre suas garras de urso
    Vá rasgar seu coração esta noite

    Você é apenas uma menina da tarde da noite, ligando para o telefone
    Ela nunca realmente te amava, então deixe-a sozinha
    Sua mãe diz que acabou quando você entra pela porta
    Dizendo: é o suficiente de você agora, você não vai fechar a boca?
    Isso é o suficiente para você, garoto, agora você está indo para o sul, amor
    Eh, woah, nunca vou deixar você ir
    Eh, woah, nunca vou deixar você ir
    Eh, woah, nunca vou deixar você ir
    Eh, woah, nunca vou deixar você ir (vá rasgar seu coração esta noite)
    Eh, woah, nunca vou deixar você ir

  23. L.... ....

    You guys are fantastic!!!

  24. h.... m....

    xD
    im sitting and then my brain bumps out
    EY OH
    i never let u go

  25. H.... ....

    Finally YouTube has my music taste figured out

  26. t.... u....

    Unpopular opinion but I think this version of the song isn't as good as the loop version.

  27. K.... ....

    lead singer is so dreamy in sound and face

  28. T.... W....

    its crazy how such a good song made by such a good band only has like 9K subs

  29. G.... F....

    Not gonna lie, kinda prefer the FaceBook live loop version.

    G.... F....

    Same. This song is good and all, but it doesn't have that journey feeling from beginning to end. It doesn't have that warm synth hug wrapping the whole thing. It doesn't have that gentle, fragile feeling of live looping that you can see on their faces, knowing that one small thing could ruin the whole song.

    This video is a good music video, but that video is true art.

  30. Z.... F....

    This song could be about getting catfished and we would never know

  31. F.... N....

    Brasileiros?

  32. G.... ....

    You don’t have to be cool to make me shiver 🥶 I love this goddam song

  33. j.... s....

    Such a good song. I'm not going to elaborate, because I can't do this song any justice.

    It's just... it's just perfect.

  34. L.... H....

    These guys should go to Eurovision!

  35. M.... t....

    Chorus reminds me of the torture doctor by alkaline trio

  36. T.... P....

    Not really my style but still lit 🔥

  37. E.... D....

    Heard this on the radio today

  38. M.... ....

    I lived the words of this song to the letter. I just got out of a bad rebound. It was exactly that way, all of it. Thanks for sharing this song and the pain the person who wrote it obviously did.

  39. B.... S....

    I just found this song and I actually love it! Hi from North America!

  40. N.... H....

    Me and my cousins are going to your concert in June ! I can’t wait 😊

  41. G.... M....

    can't believe how underrated they are

  42. M.... M....

    The lead singer is my best friends third cousin . SO ACADEMIC IF YIU SEE THIS HOLLY SAYS HELLO 💕🤪

    Also you’re amazing !!

    M.... M....

    The drummer is my 2nd cousins first removed aunties daughters best friends brother in laws stepsons older sisters uncle.

  43. J.... F....

    So underrated.

  44. J.... B....

    Oh heck, I forgot about this song for a while, but Youtube recommended it to me. Finally, Youtube gets a recommendation right.

  45. A.... W....

    So underrated

  46. r.... ....

    Go one the back seat🥳🤩🤩

  47. i.... ....

    Saw these live in my county was unreal 😁😁

  48. E.... C....

    It was the looping version that sent me, it was this song that made me stay

  49. C.... L....

    this song is so beautiful!

  50. n.... ....

    i imagine this song being played over a movie scene of a car driving down the highway with a laughing, playful couple. only for the next scene to be the guy to be alone in the car driving the same highway, listening to the slow part of the song.

  51. p.... ....
