Train - Bulletproof Picasso Album Lyrics



Train - Bulletproof Picasso Lyrics






Cadillac, Cadillac

Hey baby
Cadillac, Cadillac take me home
I would rather sit there all alone
Then watch you run around this dancefloor light
With everybody but me just ain't right
Cadillac, Cadillac take me home
I'd rather play games on my G4 phone
Than watch you flirt at the bar all damn night
With everybody but me girl it just ain't right

Right, what you do to a man falling all over you
Right, right what you say
Making me dance alone that way
Now I do what I can, but when it comes to women
I don't understand
So, I, I'm out of here
Call yourself a cab, watch my Cadillac disappear

Hey baby
Cadillac, burn the mac's on the tube
Think I'm gonna spend my night with you
She wouldn't know a good thing like I said
If I hit her from behind upside the head
Cadillac, do I lack what it takes?
Every time I love seems my heart breaks
I'd rather sit all night there see the outer space
Than lose another part of me to another pretty face

Right, what you do to a man falling all over you
Right, right what you say
Making me dance alone that way
Now I do what I can, but when it comes to women
I don't understand
So, I, I'm out of here
Call yourself a cab, watch my Cadillac disappear

Hey baby I'll be alright now
Hey baby I'll be alright now

Right, what you do to a man falling all over you
Right, right what you say
Making me dance alone that way
Now I do what I can, but when it comes to women
I don't understand
So, I, I'm out of here
Call yourself a cab, watch my Cadillac disappear

Hey baby I'll be alright now
Hey baby I'll be alright now

Bulletproof Picasso

Am I made of paper
'Cause I tear so easily
Am I made of vapor
Because I disappear
Do I have to have a reason
For anything I feel
Just be glad I'm real
Glad I'm real
Am I real

Are you made of lead paint
A bulletproof Picasso
All the virgin saints
Put you here to care for me
I don't need a reason
For anything I feel
Just be glad I say what I mean
And mean what I say to you

We don't need a reason
For anything we feel
We don't need a reason
Picasso's at the wheel
So roll this top down, hell with this town
Leave our bags behind
We don't need a reason
'Cause I got you, and you got me tonight
('Cause I got you, and you got me tonight)

Did you ever see the waves break
Into a million pieces
Or stay awake
With someone who was dying
You don't need to tell me
Anything at all
I'm just glad you're here
Glad you're real
Are you real

Am I made of timber
'Cause I'm on fire
Will you remember
Tonight for very long
You don't need to sell me
On anything at all
Just say what you mean
And mean what you say to me

We don't need a reason
For anything we feel
We don't need a reason
Picasso's at the wheel
So roll this top down, hell with this town
Leave our bags behind
We don't need a reason
'Cause I got you, and you got me tonight

Amber waves of grain
Fly by highway lanes
Waited for this change
Seems like my entire life
If only the good die young
We'll outlast everyone
For some of the things we've done
And we've just begun

(Oh)

We don't need a reason
For anything we feel
We don't need a reason
Picasso's at the wheel
So roll this top down, hell with this town
Leave our bags behind
We don't need a reason
'Cause I got you, and you got me tonight

Woah (You got me tonight)
Woah (You got me tonight)
Woah (Oh you got me tonight)
Woah

Angel In Blue Jeans

And though I never got her name
Or time to find out anything
I loved her just the same
And though I rode a different road
And sang a different song
I'll love her till my last breaths gone
Like a river made of silver
Everyone came running to the scene
I was shot down in cold blood
By an angel in blue jeans

Late that night she got away
I chased her to the turnpike
Then lost her where the music never plays
And though I rolled upon the stones and fell into the water
I'll love her till my judgment day
Like a sunrise made of white lies
Everything was nothing as it seems
I was shot down in cold blood
By an angel in blue jeans

I hear voices calling all around
I keep falling down
I think my heart could pound right out of me
I see a million different ways
To never leave this maze alive

I woke up in somebody's arms
Strange and so familiar
Where nothing could go wrong
Barely alive or nearly dead
Somehow awake in my own bed
And there you are
Like a highway headed my way
Life is but a dream
I was shot down by your love
My angel in blue jeans, oh

Give It All

When I think about my problems
And I truly understand in a world like this
Being a white man
I'm ashamed that I complained
I'm not sure that I'm no pain, but I know this

I'd give it all for one more night with you
I'd give it all for one more night with you

I see faces everyday, they're looking at me in ways as if the same
If you'd only knew, you wouldn't last a day in my shoes
And I suppose that's true
I have a lot, maybe too much, but

I'd give it all for one more night with you
I'd give it all for one more night with you

But go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on
Be free

I worked hard at what I do
It's the work that gets me through
But I'm starting to forget
But what I want is to remember, what I want is to remember
What I want, do you remember me?

I'd give it all all all all
I'd give it all all all all

I'd give it all for one more night with you
I'd give it all for one more night with you

Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, be free
Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, be free
Don't worry about me
Don't worry about me

Wonder What Youre Doing For The Rest Of Your Life

That big devil took a bite out of me
Never the same after living in the sea
You've got to tell yourself things are all true
You've got to tell yourself you can do, you can do

Now, now when I met you
How, how can I let you into all my love, so into your love
Bet you're probably crazy, that I'm being sold
Bet you're probably perfect for me, bet you're made of gold

I think I want to tell you everything
I think I want to give it all tonight
I think I want to tell you everything
I wonder what you're doing for the rest of your life
I wonder what you're doing for the rest of your life
I wonder what you're
I wonder what you're, I wonder what you're
I wonder what you're

On the east coast people are.
On the west coast mary jane is legal
I had to tell myself the tide was going to turn
I had to sell myself to people who burn it

Now, now if I let you
How, how can I get you try to understand, I was a different man
Maybe I am crazy, I maybe I should fold
Maybe I am perfect for you, baby I'm sold

I think I want to tell you everything
I think I want to give it all tonight
I think I want to tell you everything
I wonder what you're doing for the rest of your life
I wonder what you're doing for the rest of your life
I wonder what you're
I wonder what you're, for the rest of your life

All them girls from harlem to wall street
That big devil took a bite out of me, yeah
Crushed dreams from Chelsea to Queens
That big devil took a bite out of me

Now, now if I let you
How, how can I get you try to understand, I was a different man

I think I want to tell you everything
I think I want to give it all tonight
I think I want to tell you everything
I wonder what you're doing for the rest of your life
I wonder what you're doing for the rest of your life
I wonder what you're
I wonder what you're, for the rest of your life

Son Of A Prison Guard

There was a mountain on the table of bills that needed paid
Dishes in the kitchen sink like dreams that never fade.
A wild imagination of convicts in the yard,
Never enough time to make ends meet
So they put it on a credit card, don't we all?

You may not know just where you came from, but once upon a time
There was a carpenter, a bartender, a broken fishing line.
Just south of Royal Teeth in the town that I came from,
There were architects and astronauts
But the only one she loved was a prison guard.

And that's the only time I ever saw true love.

And Erica's a girl I liked in Georgia
Alone and kept me warm in Eugene.
I guess my mother loved too hard,
Set the bar too high to the sky.
What's fine enough to me is just too hard
For a son of a prison guard.

There's a gate that needed painting, clothes that needed clean.
They'd say there's time enough for that when the fun has all been seen.
'Cause when we're laying on our death bed, a promise we won't say
Wish we would have worked more, baby
Instead of loving you that way, no way.

And that's the only time I ever saw true love.

Segourney is a girl I met in Brooklyn
Herris got me close in New Orleans
I guess my mother loved too hard,
Set the bar too high to the sky.
What's fine enough for me is just too hard
For a son of a prison guard.

I go wherever you are, whoever you are
I go wherever you are, whoever you are
I go wherever you are, whoever you are
I go wherever you are.

Betty is a girl I knew in Charlotte
...left for Sydney yesterday.
I guess my mother loved too hard,
Set the bar too high to the sky.
What's fine enough for me is just too hard
For a son of a prison guard.

Just A Memory

Come back, come back, come back baby

School bells, wishing wells, sun burns, long turns
DUI's, fake IDs, first kiss to the Fugees
Breaking in, breaking out
The man on the radio knew what we were thinking about
When we didn't even know what we were drinking about
Wedding bells, nursery rhymes
Thrift shops and Five and Dimes
Move home, quit the life
Wasn't ready for the nine to five
Breaking up, breaking down
The girl at the bank, she knew what we were fighting about
When we didn't even know what I was writing about

Love I guess, is there anything else?

Come back, come back, high or low
Before you're just a girl I used to know
And who will melt with me
When I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory
Come back, come back, come back baby
For I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory

Sunshines, intervention, rose pay with good intentions
Birthdays, condolences, on the wagon or so she says
Play the game, the papers came, no one wins, nobody to blame
Everybody's right but no one's wrong
But where have all the good times gone?
Lawyers ask me if I wanted war
And I don't remember what I was fighting for, no

Love I guess, is there anything else?

Come back, come back, high or low
Before you're just a girl I used to know
And who will melt with me
When I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory
Come back, come back, come back baby
For I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory

No I'm dying to let you know
Every time you leave it kills me slowly
If you go now it'll be the last time
I'm sailing away on these tears that I'm crying, oh

Come back, come back, high or low
Before you're just a girl I used to know
And who will melt with me
When I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory

Come back, come back, high or low
Before you're just a girl I used to know
And who will melt with me
When I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory
Come back, come back, come back baby
For I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory

Come back, come back, come back baby
For I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory

Im Drinkin Tonight

I've been walking straight too long
On a thin sharp line, fading, almost gone
Feeling my shadow get close, even it knows there's a hard rain comin' on

AAAH

I'm drinkin' tonight
Gonna give up the fight
The only thing stronger than you is whiskey

AAAH

I'm lovin' you in
The ghost of my sin
And the taste of goodbye on your lips when you kissed me
'til I can't take anymore
Poison's a cure

To hell with your memory, gonna burn it down
I choke back tears 'til I damn near drown
What do you do with a man
With dirt on his hands and a deep hole dug in the ground

AAAH

I'm drinkin' tonight
Gonna give up the fight
The only thing stronger than you is whiskey

AAAH

I'm lovin' you in
The ghost of my sin
And the taste of goodbye on your lips when you kissed me
'til I can't take anymore
Poison's a cure

I'm chasing my demons with a shot of Crown
Let 'em all have their way
'til I see the light of day

But tonight

I'm drinkin' tonight
Gonna give up the fight
The only thing stronger than you is whiskey

AAAH

I'm lovin' you in
The ghost of my sin
And the taste of goodbye on your lips when you kissed me
I can't take anymore
I hope the poison's a cure
I can't take anymore
I hope the poison's a cure

I Will Remember

Did you ever do drugs, it's like love
Have you ever done love, it's like a drug
It'll mess you up good, mess you up bad
Make you fall harder than you ever had
Did you ever get dumped?
By somebody that you thought was the one
But somebody told you that you're not the one for them
And then your friends all say
They've been cheating on you anyway

Did you ever been mugged, it ain't fun
Have you ever done love, what's the difference
It'll mess you up good, mess you up bad
Make you fall harder than you ever had

Did you give it all you got?
'Til your heart went snap, crackle, pop
'Cause somebody told you that you're not the one for them
And then your friends all say
They were cheating on you anyway

Here's to us, we were at the top
And here's to never knowing when we're not
The time we had together, ooh
Love is not suppposed to stop
If you forget, I will remember

Did you ever get drunk because of love
Did it put you in a funk when it was over
Did it pick you up high, knock you down low?
Did it make you wish hard that you didn't know
Are you still going hard 'cause I am
Better by far, because of them
And together we will never let 'em get the better of us now

Here's to us, we were at the top
And here's to never knowing when we're not
The time we had together, ooh
Love is not suppposed to stop
If you forget, I will remember

If you're up, if you're down
If you're lost, if you're found
Just remember that we're bound to love
If you're up, if you're down
If you're lost, if you're found
Just remember that we're bound to love

Here's to us, we were at the top
And here's to never knowing when we're not
The time we had together, ooh
Love is not suppposed to stop
If you forget, I will remember

(Oh) Here's to us, we were at the top
(Oh) And here's to never knowing when we're not
(Oh) Love is not suppposed to stop
(Oh) If you forget, I will remember

The Bridge

What you wanna do?
What you wanna do? (Jump or burn it down)
What you wanna do?
What you wanna do? (Jump or burn it down)

We're at the bridge, together once more
We crossing over like we've done before
We can start a fire, go up in smoke
Jump into the water, do the back stroke
We're at the bridge, I love this view
But I don't know if I can cross again with you
We can start a fire, go up in smoke
Jump into the water, do the back stroke

Come on, what's it gonna be?
Come on, what's it gonna be?

I've got a feeling, you and I are the reason
Burn it down, to the ground
I need to know if you want me to
Jump or burn it to the ground
I've got to know now
Are you and I gonna go down in flames or drown?
I need to know if you want me to
Jump or burn it to the ground

This is what happens when you burn down a bridge
You jump into the fire or you learn to swim
This is what happens when you burn down a bridge
You jump into the fire or you learn to swim

Here at the bridge of loving you
Pushing one another's all we know how to do
We can start a fire, go up in smoke
Jump into the water and do the back stroke
Right from the start, hot and cold
Might get crazy but it never gets old
We can start a fire, go up in smoke
Jump into the water and do the back stroke

Come on, what's it gonna be?
Come on, what's it gonna be?

I've got a feeling, you and I are the reason
Burn it down, to the ground
I need to know if you want me to jump or burn it to the ground
I've got to know now
Are you and I gonna go down in flames or drown?
I need to know if you want me to jump or burn it to the ground

This is what happens when you burn down a bridge
You jump into the fire or you learn to swim
This is what happens when you burn down a bridge
You jump into the fire or you learn to swim

This is what happens when you burn down a bridge
You jump into the fire or you learn to swim
This is what happens when you burn down a bridge
You jump into the fire or you learn to swim

What you wanna do?
What you wanna do?
Jump or burn it down to the ground
I need to know if you want me to jump or burn it to the ground

I've got a feeling, you and I are the reason
Burn it down, to the ground
I need to know if you want me to jump or burn it to the ground
I've got to know now
Are you and I gonna go down in flames or drown?

Baby Happy Birthday

I came to make it right
I know it was your birthday
now I do remember
But these days my mind ain't right
Maybe it's the pressure, think you can forgive me

Don't over think it baby
Doesn't mean that I am falling out of love

Don't you think that I,
Wish that I could be somebody else sometimes
someone to depend on,
I don't know what's wrong with me

Don't you think that I,
Wish that I could be somebody else sometimes
Someone that would never forget your birthday

I bet your family
never wanna see me,
sisters wanna knee me

Most times I think they're right
whistle in my memory
away just like a melody

And what was that alibi
Think what it's like to be me
Before you leave me

Don't you think that I,
Wish that I could be somebody else sometimes
someone to depend on,
I don't know what's wrong with me

Don't you think that I,
Wish that I could be somebody else sometimes
Someone that would never forget your birthday

When I met ya,
you were looking for a sunny day,
a little bit of fun
and a whole lot of running away

And now you're looking at somebody
That you would love to change

Don't you think that I,
Wish that I could be somebody else for you
someone you could count on
What is taking so long

Don't you think that I,
Wish that I could be somebody else sometimes
someone that would never forget your birthday
Baby, happy birthday

Dont Grow Up So Fast

You want it all right now, let's hurry up and wait
Girl, you're right on time, trust me, you're not too late
I hate to see you rain, those mascara tears
But you can drown in the water beyond your years

Just don't grow up so fast
You don't want to know what I know yet
Maybe on paper it looks better way up here
Don't you hurry, try to take it slow
You will get there before you know it
Ain't just the bad times, the good times too shall pass
So don't grow up so fast

The world will turn, shadows fall
There's your pencil marks in the corner on the kitchen wall
Yeah, to remind us all

Just don't grow up so fast
You don't want to know what I know yet
Maybe on paper it looks better way up here
Don't you hurry, try to take it slow
You will get there before you know it
Ain't just the bad times, the good times too shall pass
So don't grow up so fast, ooh

Just don't grow up so fast
You don't want to know what I know yet
Maybe on paper it looks better way up here
Don't you hurry, try to take it slow
We all get there before you know it
Ain't just the bad times, the good times too shall pass
There's only so much sand in the hour glass
So don't grow up so fast, ooh
