    in my opinion, one of the best and most under rated songs he's ever written

      Rampaging Fat Man I’ve been addicted to it since he first released it. Lyrically and musically gorgeous song. (All of his music is, but this song has done something to me).

      Measures of the artists and I'd say shaky Graves has to be at the top of any list of great artist his original persona, but raw talent, and creativity all shine out with every note.. I was really glad to run into this guy.

    I'll be honest I really love these stripped down acoustic versions of his music. Shakey should make an album of your songs, stripped down to the acoustic guitar.

      @carapeekspraggins7471 Před 4 lety +2

      Just as well as his ability to put on a whole concert, singing, drumming with his heels, and playing guitar. I dont know that anyone would ever wonder what was missing, or where the rest of the band is listening to his solo stuff. I wouldnt of, had i not taken interest in his music for the 1st time, if i had just been listening to it, and nit watching it as well.

    Pinch every penny and stroll to the bank
    Beg for a loan on my humble estate
    Teddy, Georgie, sweet Benjamin
    My terrible friends
    They never call or even pretend
    To worry about me when money is thin
    I can't afford to fall in love
    No I can't afford to fall in love
    (Excuses, excuses)

    No time for this, no time for that
    No time for patience, no time for all that
    No time to know that I'm out of my league
    No time to get myself back on my feet
    No time for you, no time for me
    No time for lessons, no time to be free
    No time for good times of sweet memories
    No time for stragglers or sympathy
    'Cause I don't have time to fall in love
    I don't have time to fall in love
    No no no, not today
    Maybe tomorrow is too far away
    Can I change before my time runs out?
    I can't wait for the phone to ring
    I can't wait for summer, I can't wait for spring
    I can't wait for someone who can't wait for me
    I can't wait to fall in love
    I can't wait for the phone to ring
    I can't wait for summer, I can't wait for spring
    I can't wait for someone who can't wait for me
    I can't wait to fall in love
    I can't wait for the phone to ring
