Make a Scene

I keep on writing the same sentence
Keep on acting the same way
Every part is this a new direction
Every change just seems to take me back to the way I came
Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
Ha ha ha haaa ahhhh
Ha ha ha haaaa ha ahhh
Ha ha ha haaa ahhhh
Ha ha ha haaaa ha ahhh
So many reason you need a lesson
So many reasons I need to change
I keep on running
You keep running
I keep making the same mistakes
Ha ha ha
Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
I’ve been searching in the wrong place
Caught in a crowd with no direction
Can't keep running away
Running away
Running away
Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
Start a new love
Make a scene

Slow Down
03:25
|

Happy people in your face
We should stop and contemplate
It begs the thought can this be sustained
Temporary pleasures evaporate
Every day is a new rat race
Don’t even think of sleeping late
Trying to keep up with the trending tastes
We’re running out of land to negotiate
Slow down
We gotta slow down
Come on let’s give our heads of shake
Old boys clubs are eating off gold plates
When half the world is hungry and living chained
This sure ain’t a thing we should celebrate
Every day is a new upgrade
Don’t even think of sleeping late
Trying to keep up with the trending tastes
We’re running out of land to negotiate
Slow down
We gotta slow down
Wait for a minute and try to slow down
Stop to consider it turn it around
Slow down
Slow down
We gotta slow down
Slow down
Slow down
Slow down
We gotta slow down
Slow down
We gotta slow down
Slow down
We gotta slow down
Slow down
Slow down
Slow down

Same Roads
03:57
|

I get up late again this morning and my tears fall down
I look up and I try to find my conscience
I’m in a wrong way and I’ve got to turn around
Then I keep on walking the same roads again and that roads keep breaking me down
I keep on walking the same roads again and that road keeps breaking me down
I fall back again from where I started
Now I’m almost gone I'm so lost looking for direction
I try to take it but every way I feel is so wrong
Then I keep on walking the same roads again and that roads keep breaking me down
I keep on walking down the same roads again that road keep breaking me down
Ahhh, ahhhh, ahhh
From time to time I find I still do cry
Not knowing where I'm supposed to be
I’ll wait for the day when I stop slipping away
and feel fine with being me
Then I keep on walking the same roads again and that road keeps breaking me down
Then I keep on walking down the same roads again and that road keeps breaking me down down oh down

Really Great
03:40

Yesterday they made it
Now they want to change it
Everybody's got to make a mistake
When you're making a decision
Following the Rhythm
It's hard to do but it's really great
And it's hard to do but it really great
Really great
Try to say I'd make it
but every time I fake it
You know I fell right through the crack
When you're making a decision
Questioning religion
There's a better way to look back
And it's hard to do but it's really great
And it hard to but it really great
It's really great
All my life I've been reaching
Taking what I'm needing
Taking what I'm needing
All my life I've been reaching
Taking what I'm needing taking what I'm needing
All my life I've been reaching
Taking what I'm needing
Taking what I need

Confetti
03:31
|

I knew a sweet little lady
Some called crazy
And her bank was full
She had this one idea
To teach her money grubbing children
That stuff is temporary
And you just Can't take it with you when you go
There'll be confetti at her funeral
Made of money it will be fun for all
And the greedy they'll be throwing fits
And she'll be laughing down in deep six
The day came where her friends shared stories
They said her favourite saying was “So it goes”
The money blew up in a flurry
The perfect grand finale
That stuff is temporary and you just can’t take it with you when you go
There'll be confetti at her funeral
Made of money it will be fun for all
And the greedy they'll be throwing fits
And she'll be laughing down in deep six
Ooooo
There'll be confetti at her funeral
Made of money it will be fun for all
And the greedy they'll be throwing fits
And she'll be laughing down in deep six.

When your heart is heavy
Only gets you down
No more sleeping
No more dreaming
Only a feeling
feeling
Only a feeling
You work the 9-5
Just to stay alive
And you’re oh so tired
You work the 9-5
Just to stay alive
And you’re oh so tired
When you’re lying steady
Only gets you found
When your heart is heavy
Only gets you down
No more sleeping
No more dreaming
Only the feeling
feeling
Only the feeling
You work the 9-5
Just to stay alive
And you’re oh so tired
You work the 9-5
Just to stay alive
And you’re oh so tired
When the world is running
And you just can’t stop
You can’t start at all
You can’t start at all
Only a feeling
Only a feeling
Only a feeling
Only a feeling
You work the 9-5
Just to stay alive
And you’re oh so tired
You work the 9-5
Just to stay alive
And you’re oh so tired
You work the 9-5
Just to stay alive
And you’re oh so tired
You work the 9-5
Just to stay alive
And you’re always so tired

What Were You Dreaming
03:05

La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la
I made a mistake
Let's bury it deep
So far under ground
With all the love that we weep
I remember those happy days
Holding my hand kissing my face
What were you dreaming when you were leaving
La la la la la
La la la la la
When did it go sideways
When was it right
How did you know
To give up the fight
What were you dreaming
When you were leaving
I couldn’t have been stronger for you baby
I didn’t love you that way
Just when you’ve got me spinning in circles
Waiting for you to
Come out slaying
Come out slaying
I made a mistake
Let's bury it deep
So far under ground
With all the love that we weep
I remember those happy days
Holding my hand kissing my face
What were you dreaming when you were leaving
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la

Next Somewhere
04:09
|

Three thousand miles from home
In a beat up car and stoned
Is this who I thought I'd become
The dream seemed easier when I was young
Another long drive to go
To watch strangers smiling at me in rows
They ask is it hard living like the wild ones
So I tell em' a bit about where I'm from
Momma's here Daddy's there the only thing that stays is the next somewhere.
Momma's here Daddy's there the only thing that stays is the next somewhere
Oooo
Checking in to see what I owe
I've come too far to quit and fold
Some nights get me so done
Going to bed with the rising sun
One day I'll build a home
I can't put down this life I've chose
Oh this way is only made for some
For those who like being paid in love
Momma's here Daddy's there the only thing that stays is the next somewhere
Momma's here Daddy's there the only thing that stays is the next somewhere
Momma's here Daddy's there the only thing that stays is the next somewhere
Momma's here Daddy's there the only thing that stays is the next somewhere
Oooo
The only thing that stays is the next somewhere the only thing that stays
The only thing that stays is the next somewhere the only thing that stays
The only thing that stays is the next somewhere the only thing that stays
The only thing that stays is the next somewhere the only thing that stays

Sweet Alibi Winnipeg, Manitoba
There is more than a touch of magic in the luminous vocal harmonies powering the soulful roots pop of Winnipeg combo Sweet
Alibi.
The voices of Jess , Amber and Michelle are tightly braided together, as they are in the super-sticky title track of their dazzling fourth album, Make A Scene, or are ornamenting Ayre’s lead on the gorgeously propulsive and contemplative “Slow Down,”
