We're back with another track! This time, it's "Are We Gonna Do This Tonight?" a fun rocker with a ton of slide guitar and a message about the importance of consent. Hope you dig it!
lyrics
I’m just an average guy
Maybe a little shy
And you’re a girl who’s crazy in the head
You came to me one night
Hoping to excite
Glitter in your hair and whiskey on your breath
The music from the stage
Desires of youthful age
It filled you up like water in the springs
You tugged me on my shirt
I saw right up your skirt
Made me want to do unnatural things
Laser lights shinin’ on
Sneak away to the bathroom, it won’t take long
Are we gonna do this tonight?
Are we gonna do this tonight?
At the risk of getting blue balls, I don’t think the time is right
Are we gonna do this tonight?
Now, I’m not a stupid guy
I knew you wanted to try
To play a game of baseball in my pants
And the band starts playing ‘long
Some cheesy ’80s song
“Holding Out for a Hero,” you’re holding out for romance
But I knew you were plenty drunk
It wouldn’t be too fun
So, I kept my cool and said, “No, thanks”
The nightmare carried on
Next thing, you were gone
Man, doing the right thing sometimes really stinks
It’s a crisis of conscience, and my conscience won
Maybe I dodged a bullet, or I jumped the gun
Are we gonna do this tonight?
Are we gonna do this tonight?
At the risk of getting blue balls, I don’t think the time is right
Are we gonna do this tonight?
It’s a crisis of conscience, and my conscience won
Maybe I dodged a bullet, or I jumped the gun
And the laser lights still shinin’ on
Sneak away to the bathroom, it won’t take long
Are we gonna do this tonight?
Are we gonna do this tonight?
At the risk of getting blue balls, I don’t think the time is right
Are we gonna do this tonight?
Are we gonna do this tonight?
Are we gonna do this tonight?
At the risk of getting blue balls, I don’t think the time is right
Are we gonna do this?
