One Day
Big D and the Kids Table
Album: For the Damned, the Dumb and the Delirious (2011)
This is easily one of my top albums for 2011. Even if you were lost with the last album „Fluent in Stroll“ don’t worry, this album is way different. It’s faster, more aggressive and a whole lot of fun (This being said, Fluent was fun too, but it was different). over 50 minutes of great music!
This is the last song of the album (this if we don’t count the bonus track) and probably my favorite one. I think it represents well the spirit of the album.
I do not own any copyrights on this song.
LYRICS
One day,
I’ll stop stealing beer from clubs,
toilet paper, paper towels,
light bulbs and even the cigarette stained rug
One day,
I’ll stop hanging in the bars
With the late-night punks and lousy women
And all those toxic hangers on
And did you know,
Life is easier than they claim,
When you ain’t obsessed with fame,
And the world knows you’ll never be tamed
When gasoline soaked,
With an open zipo’s flame,
Livin’ life is a no-rules game,
And if I ever step in line – then I’m to blame.
No, don’t wait around for me,
I’m stickin’ to the first plan,
It’s workin’ out for me
No, don’t wait around for me,
There’s still a mess of countries left that I haven’t seen.
Old friends have grown into American bodies,
Have given up on their hobbies,
And pull me aside and say „Don’t you ever change.“
An old man,
Take a seat next to me at the bar,
And we find out who each other are,
And pull me close and go „Don’t you ever change.“
So don’t wait around for me,
I’m enjoying life too much,
I’m self-made free
Nah, don’t wait around for me,
Go ahead with your own life,
But me….
I explode on mics,
Dive on endless heads,
Play with as much power to wake the living dead
Why I don’t fear,
Adrenalize new heights,
I’ll make your Monday into fuckin’ Saturday Night.
No, don’t wait around for me,
I don’t agree with the values and interests of society
No, don’t wait around for me,
What a decrescendo, Huh?
Humanity!
No, don’t wait around for me,
To taste this whole world
That’s life for me
No, don’t wait around for me,
Gotta do my own thing,
I’m self-made free
