Tonight i'll take what i can get (band)


I've got my eye on top shelf liquor,
With taste so smooth it
Hits you quicker.
But you've only got the well.
And I've got an eye for top tier women
With legs so long they go straight to heaven,
But this old bunch looks like hell.
But tonight I'll take what I can get.
I'd like to hear a great musician
With strange ideas and grand ambitions,
But this guy, he's got trouble with chords.
And I'd like to leave this game a winner
Head held high, the luck of beginners
But this old losers crawling out on all fours.
But tonight I'll take what I can get.
Well this drink will do,
And girl you look alright,
And this band is playing like hell tonight.
These dice are loaded
And Lord I am too
I might be losing but I'm leaving soon.
With the prettiest girl
To enter this dump,
She drank all of the whiskey but she left me the rum
And tonight I'll take what I can get
Tonight I'll take what I can get
I've got my sights on brand new beginnings
Brand new starts make saints of sinners
But I'm doomed to live in my past
Live nude girls says the sign out front,
But old dead dreams are dancing in front,
Of old dead dreamers with washed up luck,
Buyin' love for cash
Well tonight I'll take what I can get.
This old story gets stale and dry,
No matter how I try and try
To spin this fable
Fresh and new
You strung me along
Like a tease on prom night
Getting me loose but
Leaving me uptight
Please tell me that
Some of that love was true.
Tonight I'll take what I can get -a

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Dashboard Confessional is an American musical group formed in 1998 in Gainesville, Florida. The project originated as a side project by Chris Carrabba, who was already the frontman of the band Further Seems Forever. The first album, *Swiss Army Romance* (2000), was primarily a solo effort, but with the success of the record, Carrabba formed a full band for the following album, *The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most* (2001). The group achieved international recognition with the 2002 MTV Unplugged album, which was certified platinum. Subsequently, Dashboard Confessional released other successful albums such as *A Mark, a Mission, a Brand, a Scar* (2003) and *Dusk and Summer* (2006), both reaching number two on the US Billboard charts. In 2007, the group returned to acoustic sounds with the album *The Shade of Poison Trees*. Some of Dashboard Confessional's most representative songs include: "Hands Down", "Screaming Infidelities", "The Sharp Hint of New Tears", "Don't Wait" and "Stolen".
