Alkaline Trio - Every Thug Needs A Lady Lyrics






I know it's dark here, you know that I'm scared too
For some reason right now, of everything but you
Right now you're all that I recognize
You know I came here when I needed your soft voice
I needed to hear something that sounded like an answer
Now I wait here, and sometimes I get one

It's nothing I'll forget when the moon gets tired
You are stuck to me everyday
Believe in what I am because it's all I have today
And tomorrow who knows where we'll be
From here I can hardly see a thing
But I will follow anyone who brings me to you
For now, forever, for on and on and on

You know it starts here, outside waiting in the cold
Kiss me once in the snow, I swear it never gets old
But I will promise you I can make it warmer next year
You know I came here when I needed your soft voice
I needed to hear something that sounded like an answer
Now I stay here, and everyday I get one

It's nothing I'll forget when the moon gets tired
You are stuck to me everyday
Believe in what I am because it's all I have today
And tomorrow who knows where we'll be
From here I can hardly see a thing
But I will follow anyone who brings me to you
For now, forever, for on and on and on

So go plug in your electric blanket
We can stay in 'till our southern summer wedding day
Go plug in your electric blanket
We can stay here

    For on and on and on

    I know, that, at 15 years old, I'm still inexperienced. But this song is very meaningful to me. I'm in a long-distance relationship with my girlfriend and the line "I would follow anyone who brings me to you" is making me feel sad, because her parents won't let her come to my place, and if were to come to hers, they wouldn't allow me to stay overnight there. I hate that I found my other half 200km away from me. It's cruel

  3. B.... W....

    but i would follow anyone who brings me to you
    for now
    forever
    for on and on and on
    <3

  5. A.... P....

    Had the one that got away suddenly show up lol and send me this and of course a felt some shit and he disappeared yet again. I love this song though. Just bc he introduced me to it it's still so beautiful and I won't let him screw up something good. Guess some ppl never change. Oh well...

    You know it starts here outside waiting in the cold, kiss me once in the snow I swear it never gets old. And I will promise you I can make it warmer next year.

  7. I.... E....

    "Every thug needs a lady" aka normal life in North Wales...

  8. j.... b....

    This is everything ❤️

  9. A.... P....

    A.... P....

    Andrew Pavlica and she's so in love with you.

  10. D.... H....

    Good wedding song right?

  11. V.... Q....

    this music made me appreciate my partner more. Thank you AT!

  12. T.... ....

    My best friends wedding song! They just danced to this last night at their wedding

  13. d.... s....

    never skip this song on shuffle ha

  14. C.... W....

    This fucking album is awesome.

  15. a.... ....

    The tune is truly very touching. ❤

  16. J.... K....

    This is probably one of the only songs from damnesia that I prefer over the original

  17. D.... W....

    Another turning point a fork stuck in the road...

  18. P.... ....

    "Believe in what I am because it's all that I have "

    Perhaps one of the best lines ever spoken.

  19. J.... L....

    the wedding song of my wife and I

    J.... L....

    shit man me too

  20. S.... C....

    Dan is great. No auto tune on his voice. Listen to him live, he's generally a very solid singer who sings in key unless he's really trying to yell more for an aggressive sound. I have heard way too many live performances from Dan to question is ability to sing in key. Skiba is a different story. He's awesome and has a very cool voice tone but his history of live performances has varied greatly. I don't like blink at all but from what I have seen live it appears the skiba has stepped up his vocal game a bit.

  21. G.... A....

    I like this band but the fans are idiots lol

  22. 1.... ....

    Had this at my wedding, no band reflects better the darkness and light of love. Life is one big journey of duality, I feel so lucky to have found someone as crazy/true as me to live my life with. Fucking love this band man.

    1.... ....

    well put

    1.... ....

    Awesomeness! Happy for you guys! Good Riddance to you both.

  23. c.... ....

    well listening to the trio for the first time was a religious experience.

  24. w.... ....

    reminds me of my baby :) I love you bub

    w.... ....

    You and me both

  26. K.... O....

    This song is what is love is all about

  27. N.... C....

    N.... C....

    My boyfriend wants to play this at our wedding as our first dance song

    N.... C....

    Very cool

    N.... C....

    This was my first dance song at my wedding

  28. T.... C....

    One day this will be played at my wedding...

  29. T.... K....

    I have just recently been introduced to Alkaline Trio by my bf! He does most of their stuff acoustically and it is friggin awesome. This one is probably one of y favorites.

  30. A.... J....

    Pretty sure if you were a singer it's not actually hard to sing this. Learn it. You could do it.

  31. j.... f....

    you know....@coolhurricane.... not all recording artists use auto-tune!!! some just can't be arsed to use it..... admittedly i do reckon the guys did..... i'm just having a listen to a few other, and a live version of Do You Want To Know acoustic, the highs are a lil funny without a lil pitch correction!!! hmmm, still, the vocals as a whole are pretty kick ass!!

  32. o.... ....

    Chord progression remind anybody else of Good Riddance by Green Day?

  33. Z.... H....

    One thug has no lady.

  34. S.... D....

    M1k3Rules sent me here

  35. J.... ....

    That's not Skiba singing....

    J.... ....

    JesseWeirdo derp

    J.... ....

    Because skiba doesnt sing this song.

    J.... ....

    He sings all the best tracks

  36. G.... B....

    This group would NEVER secretly use autotune. Especially on an acoustic song this AWESOME. I've been listening to them since I was about 6 years old...He has a great voice. As a musician, I'm saying.....DON'T trash talk talent. Learn about something before you speak poorly about a subject matter that you don't seem to know..

  37. c.... t....

    i love it when theres no " I dislike " it shows how good this song really is .. Awesome!

  38. M.... ....

    Forever my favorite song. Original and acoustic version.

  39. S.... ....

    Sometimes when i get really sad i just replay this over and over. It's beautiful.

  40. d.... ....

    They're using auto-tune for pitch correction.

  41. D.... D....

    /watch?v=DvuA1tzpsDA

    they have been using auto tune.

  42. D.... ....

    and that's exactly why you're an idiot..

  43. D.... D....

    I think you're the idiot.

  44. D.... ....

    They're not using autotune...

  45. D.... D....

    That was a fantastic reply, how exactly am I an idiot.

  46. D.... ....

    You're an idiot..

  47. T.... D....

    I Love This Song & Alkaline Trio <3

  48. s.... ....

    ahhh i love his voice.

  49. A.... A....

    perfection.

  50. J.... F....

    This is the one song off the album that's actually better than the original version, I love this!

  51. H.... P....

    Dan Andriano is the best.

  52. 6.... ....

    My favorite off of Damnesia.
