Be patient. Behave.
Some of my favorite lyrics from Cute Is What We Aim For songs:
"You have a dangerous face and illegal taste and that strap has fallen on that shoulder blade.
Be patient. Behave." -
Moan
"You have a moan all of your own and I can feel it down to the bone." -
Moan
"You trained these lips when they were champs and now they're itchin' for a comeback. So come back" -
Moan"In every circle of friends, there's a whore
The one who flirts and does a little more" -
Newport Living"I've got the gift of one-liners and you've got the curse of curves
And with this gift, I compose words
And the question that comes forward
Are you perspiring from the irony?
Or sweating to these lyrics?" -
The Curse of Curves"He said it was a one night stand
But the alcohol didn't let her understand" -
The Fourth Drink Instinct"So the bartender who tends to pretend that he's concerned
Says, "Girlie girlie, you're at your best when you're sober
And she slurs, "No no, just one more
And one turns into four
The fourth drink instinct is taking over
And the gentleman is leading her towards the door" -
The Fourth Drink Instinct
"She thought that she could buy happiness by the bottle" -
The Fourth Drink Instinct
"Her bone structure screams, "Touch her! Touch her!" -
The Curse of Curves"The inside lingo had me at hello
And we go where the money goes" -
The Curse of Curves"Cause conflict and make your top pick
Restitch my ripped jeans and take the old ones
Take the old ones out back
Sew them tight at the seams please
I got so many ripped knees, ripped knees" -
Teasing to Please"It's just a lyrical lie
Made up in my mind" -
Lyrical Lies
The band uses a lot of assonance, alliteration, irony, metaphor and simile but they're really good. The lyrics are better heard than read.
