lyrics

I have spent the first few days of this year
Calling everyone I know
I am hopeless, I am hopeless - give me hope
My friends, they've spent the first few hours of this year
Along with me as we repeat ourselves
Coming up and staying in
We're old

And you have spent the first days of this year
Along with people I don't know
In the places we would go and in our homes
And I'll resent the time you'll spend without me
And the fool you'll find to keep you sweet
The ground you'll grace beneath your feet

I've been living out of the back of my car
I have got the feeling I could be a while here
Pack my things away and wonder where you are
What to do with all these bags of clothes and old guitars

And if this was the start, the way I mean to go on
I just might give up on this year
And if this was the start, the way I mean to go on
there is oh, so little hope for me

BAD IDEAS

(2011 - 2016)


Borrowing their name from the lyrics of an old Alkaline Trio song, BAD IDEAS is a

British punk rock group that owes as much to the youthful swagger of 90’s Brit-pop groups and guitar led indie bands as it does trans-atlantic punk rock.
