We Always End Up in Bed ( Post punk )

V6-WILD

[Verse 1: scratchy jangle guitar and driving bass, tight drums, clipped dry vocals] [Male] You rearranged my records by color Like it was a favor, like I'd thank you Three years of dishes in the sink And you still load the washer like a crime scene [Female] You corrected me in front of your friends With that little smile you think is charm You've said "I'm fine" for six days running Fine is the word you use to start a war [Pre-Chorus: drums push forward, snare snapping, guitars tightening, the two voices overlap] [Male] Go on, say it [Female] You first [Male] I'm not the one who's shaking [Female] You're keeping your hands in your pockets Like they might say something first [Chorus: full band erupts, distorted guitar burst, both voices together, shouted, bitter] [Both] We always end up in bed Say what you like, say it hard Nothing's mended, nothing's said We always end up in bed [Verse 2: back to bass and scratchy guitar, drums pulling back, sour jangle] [Female] You told your sister I was a phase [Male] You told your mother I was a lot [Female] I said I was tired, I meant of this [Male] Funny, you've never looked so awake [Pre-Chorus: drums rushing, guitars fraying, voices cutting each other off] [Male] Go on, say it [Female] I'm saying it [Male] Then why is it so quiet [Female] Because you're listening for once [Chorus: full band, louder and crueler, abrasive guitar over the top] [Both] We always end up in bed Say what you like, say it hard Nothing's mended, nothing's said We always end up in bed [Instrumental break: abrasive guitar burst, drums pushing, bass running] [Bridge: everything drops out, bass and two voices only, the tension turns, guitar creeps back in at the end] [Female] Don't look at me like that [Male] Like what [Female] Like you've already got my dress off [Male] You wore it to start a fight [Female] I wore it for this [Male] Then come here [Final Chorus: clean jangle guitar and bass, brushes replacing the snare, voices close and hushed] [Both] We always end up in bed Nothing's mended, nothing's said Your hands are out of your pockets We always end up in bed [ instrumerntal short break guitar solo and synth moog solo ] [Outro: one clean guitar and bass, slow fade] [Both] We'll fight again in the morning We'll fight again in the morning
