SOTD: Get On with It
This song titled “Get On with It” is stuck in my head today. I love the urgency of the music and the writer’s sense of humor. plus it’s got that retro-80’s sound that I love so much. the song sounds like a mashup of Icehouse, the Cars and Utopia. check it out. It’s the song of the day.
These things always come to a head
over a glass of wine and a cigarette
And you look tipsy with your cheeks all red
I think the alcohol has gone to your head
I feel undressed in this beat up vest
I don’t know how to dance but I’ll try my best
Either you live your life or you sit witness
while a look alike comes and steals your bliss
so come on get on with it…we’re just wasting time
Here you are standing in the flesh
We’re only minutes in and it’s too intense
You got a little dagger stuck inside my chest
You’re a perfect myth built on a movie set
And I’m walking a wire with no safety net
If I’m a gambling man then you’re a risky bet
But I’m sick of leaving ‘fore the table’s set
I’m ’bout as ready now as I’ll ever get
so come on get on with it…we’re just wasting time
No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no
No turning back, I do this every time
Get my courage built then I change my mind
I said no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no
nobody here except for you and I
Girl it’s closing time..
so come on get on with it…we’re just wasting time
These things always come to a head
over a glass of wine and a cigarette
You got a little dagger stuck inside my chest
I’m ’bout as ready now as I’ll ever get
