about

A message to myself, really. Still a staple of my electric set.

lyrics

Memories of golden days
All the songs we used to play
Blue Suede Shoes, Runaway
Take your time look around
Keep your feet on the ground
What goes up must come down

You've got to give it up, baby

Growing up at my high school
On the bus we'd stare at you
Just to watch the things you'd do
We were all hypnotised
When we looked in your eyes
Something else was there besides

You've got to give it up, baby

Take me back from where I came
Things can never be the same
I don't care it's such a shame
Never thought I'd hear me say
I'm getting used to shades of grey
But things just turned out that way

You've got to give it up, baby
