Ted's Song of the Week - 3/02/05

Goodnight Goodnight
Hot Hot Heat
Elevator

Hot Hot Heat are back and they haven't lost a step with their signature blend of feelgood new wave and pop. The song registers at just over 2 minutes, but it is loaded with enough catchy riffs, danceable beats, and the occasional clapping to kick the listener into a good mood. If the rest of ELEVATOR is as good as "Goodnight Goodnight", we all may be in for a treat.

Lyrics:
It's not enough to hear me say you've won,
you only wanted me for havin' fun.
but now I think you've gone and had your way,
and left me with a pile of bills to pay.
I can't even rewind the tape machine,
to listen to your drunken reasoning.

So here it is, your final lullaby:

So goodnight, goodnight.
You're embarassing me,
you're embarassing you.
So goodnight, goodnight.
Walk away from the door,
walk away from my life.
So goodnight.

I've given up on social nights at ease,
I threw 'em out when I threw out your keys.
Along with all your records I can't stand;
you never even listened to any one of them.
You're never gonna drag me out again,
with all the people that were never ever even your friends.

So here it is, your final lullaby:

So goodnight, goodnight.
You're embarassing me,
you're embarassing you.
So goodnight, goodnight.
Walk away from the door,
walk away from my life.

A little bit of rain I’d say is fair,
But why does ???
This isn't getting hurt, this is goodbye.

So goodnight, goodnight.
You're embarassing me,
you're embarassing you.
So goodnight, goodnight.
Walk away from the door,
walk away from my life.

So goodnight, goodnight.
You're embarassing me,
you're embarassing you.
So goodnight, goodnight.
Walk away from the door,
walk away from my life.
so goodnight.
