Ludo - Roxy Lyrics






Oh Roxy, don't you love me?
Is it because I'm American?
Maybe it's because I don't grope you and your friends
Like the fool behind you now dancing halfway down your pants

Somewhere near the border of Spain and France
A bottle of bad red wine in my head
Sixty francs to look like a fool and dance
Mechanics understand not what I said
Thinkin' 'bout the time that I had, how sad
Her one-word shirt describes my plight in red
And her name is a reoccurring theme

Start a move that everyone knows, the awkward pose
And in the meantime, her eyes finding me
Reluctantly I start the approach, her eyes, they glow
But it's not glee, it's fear - that's why she flees
Sing of girls I wish that I knew
Her eyes rung true, her one-word shirt now stabbing sparkling blue
And her name is a barely flickering flame

Oh Roxy, don't you love me?
Is it because I'm American?
Maybe it's because I don't grope you and your friends
Like the fool behind you now dancing halfway down your pants

Roxy's spinnin' around, or is it me that's down?
How many fingers do I see? Is it three by now?
Stands on top of the stairs and screams for who? Who cares?
All that matters now is my eyes like Apollo's, become clear.

Somewhere near the border of pain and romance,
Her name is undetermined as of yet
Potential for a Roxy again has always been
The hardest part to get out of my head
Comes full circle all in the end, I hope
Could one-word shirts in songs be just a joke?
And her name is a never-ever-ending game

Oh Roxy, don't you love me?
Why do I gotta be American?
Maybe it's because I don't grope you and your friends
Like the fool behind you now dancing halfway down your pants

  1. r.... ....

    Why couldn't I have been born a couple of years earlier? At least then I would have been able to see my favorite bands live... D: Also I followed because you post a lot of Ludo <3

    r.... ....

    They just played a show in St. Louis! I'm guessing they will do another, as they sold out the pageant two shows in one night.

  2. x.... ....

    This is a weird song to dedicate to a dog.

    x.... ....

    +xxhardforcorexx We got rid of that dog pretty fast too. Found a new good owner for a bad dog.

    x.... ....

    +matoro1989 Lmao. Was it mean or just mischievous?

    x.... ....

    +xxhardforcorexx constantly barking and afraid. She had been beat up by some kids at a daycare, so we couldn't blame her, but my wife (girlfriend back then), couldn't take care of her while working. Too much to handle. So we found new people that could give her enough attention.

    x.... ....

    @matoro1989 Oh, I see. Well, that would definitely be annoying, but being topped with the inability to take care of it would definitely make my mind up. I'm sorry to hear that. It's unfortunate when people abuse animals. At least you found a person who could take care of it. Hopefully they do a good job and the dog recovers. Unfortunately, I think sometimes they're too damaged to ever recover.  

  3. M.... S....

    This song LOL

  4. r.... g....

    now is not the Time

    r.... g....

    richard greene It's always time for LUDO

  5. 1.... ....

    hey my name is Roxy!! ( short for Roxanne )

  6. B.... ....

    I wish I radio stations around me played good music. :(

  7. 1.... ....

    good song... heard it for the first time on the radio last night :3

  8. T.... ....

    Woah, I had a German Shepherd named Roxy.

    Huh.

  9. J.... B....

    Let me tell you about Roxy.
    She's a blond 15 year old with a drinking problem.
    And she's funny.
    That's all. Now gtfo.

    J.... B....

    J Bennett When you join the Homestuck fandom 5 years late-

    J.... B....

    @Amara Rellasta When you join 7 years late-

  10. d.... ....

    this song is grest
    *great

  11. M.... L....

    @QuantumVeritas Unless they're talking about the girlfriends new old dog Roxie

  12. F.... H....

    What ever happend to their song Luster? i hav it on my ipod from like 6 years ago wen no one knew them

  13. M.... L....

    When he sings: "How many fingers do I see?" I always expect the next line to be: "Is it Thursday by now?"

  14. B.... ....

    @acefan101 wisdom teeth are fun! Get a whole bunch of freezepops, the cold numbs, the sugar keeps you happy, and the rest is water to keep hydrated. I ate about a whole 200 popsicle crate the day of my surgery, and I was eating soft foods that night, and regular solids the next day and I only had the one painkiller they gave me at the office, never swelled up like a chipmunk.

    Just be careful not to suck too hard, you can pul out the clot and get dry socket.

  15. a.... ....

    all your spam are belong to us, that just gave me the biggest smile! unfortunately, due to wisdom teeth, it hurts to smile. grrrr, you suck! good song though!

  16. B.... ....

    @RCCola339 not recently, but back when it first came out.

  17. R.... h....

    @matoro1989 A Bionicle fan :O

  18. B.... ....

    @MvuaNdege I must also note, this is not his best singing. The song is more angsty, so the voice is sharper, but some of their more ballad type songs he sings a lot better. Try Laundry Girl and Hum Along.

  19. B.... ....

    @MvuaNdege I find once you get used to some of the worst high pitched voices in punk, you can tolerate most punkish singers. Lots of Tom Delonge from blink182 and Jordan Pundik from New Found Glory (two of my favorite bands) both have really obnoxious voices, but I love their singing.

  20. B.... ....

    @MvuaNdege :( sadface.

  21. B.... ....

    @ultrahedgehog I guess so :/

  22. E.... S....

    @matoro1989 Well, dammit. I have to go watch Goodwill Hunting by myself now, I suppose. :(

  23. B.... ....

    @matoro1989 sorry, ignore that. I hate youtube's new way of organizing comments without really separating new comments from old popular ones. I saw your post at the top and though "new comment" and as soon as I clicked send I saw the timestamp >...< google's pissing me off with all the youtube updates.

  24. B.... ....

    @dragonfly876 I don't have a big following anywhere, but I wanted to share this song on my facebook and it was nowhere to be found on youtube (*gasp!*). I'm glad that others who wanted to share it are able because of my upload. makes me feel warm and squishy inside. ;)

  25. B.... ....

    @ultrahedgehog sorry, already got my laundry girl.

  26. E.... S....

    Just because of your description, I think I love you.

    Marry me now please.

  27. I.... ....

    @dragonfly876
    I agree!

  28. B.... ....

    lol, i wasn't even paying attention.

    I uploaded Laundry Girl because i couldn't find it and I wanted to link it on my facebook profile. The others I uploaded on request, never really thought about them getting popular.

    And yeah, I love Ludo. His voice just kinda fits the geeky nature of their songs, and their lyrics are so original and funny (if sometimes creeperish :P ).

  29. d.... ....

    Haha, that's funny. The views for this video jumped up by almost a thousand immediately after vert-is-ninja on deviantart linked to it.
    It's a really great song. I like the quirky stopping-starting parts for the guitar, and something about his voice in this song is oddly cute.

  30. B.... ....

    "You're Awful, I Love You" came out in 2008, "Ludo" came out in 2004, and "Broken Bride" in 2005.

    "You're Awful, I Love You?" is their first album on Island Records. Before that they used their own indie label called Redbird Records.

  31. U.... ....

    Hmm, isn't their first album "You're awful, I Love you?" , at least that's what they say on their official website o_o'

    Anyway, this songs Rox (y)

    U.... ....

    no. technically its their 3rd (because broken bride came out in 2005)

  32. R.... S....

    I love this song because Roxy is nickname : )

  33. H.... ....

    I'll be waiting

  34. B.... ....

    No problem. I'm done with my summer class now, imovie is fixed, and I finally have high-speed at the house, so the other two should be up in the next week or so.

  35. H.... ....

    thanks for uploading it man
