Guggenheim
The Ting Tings

There was this boy who came to town.
Was cooler than the boys in all my crazy dreams.
All the problems I thought I had all but disappeared.
And he would always
Always think of me first.
And we were writing the history books and we were so in love.
And there was this girl she used to hang out
I never saw anything anyone no one so beautiful
And she would sit around
And wait for the day to end.
And she would offer herself as if she had nowhere else to go.
And I didnt think nothing of it
And thats when my life went cold.
And then she was not sleeping in your bed
And she was all over you.
And there she was sleeping in my bed.
And then there were all these issues
And then there were all these issues.
This time Im gonna get it right
Im gonna play my bass at the Guggenheim.
This time Im gonna get it right
Im gonna play my bass at the Guggenheim.
This time Im gonna get it right
This time Im gonna get it right.
This time Im gonna get it right
Im gonna play my bass at the Guggenheim.

And all the things we used to say and used to do together
And I cant believe
That there were such good things between us
And we threw them all away.
Just because this girl
She thought that she had something to say.
And all the things Im now left with are scarred upon my mind
And I cant believe allthese times I used to wait
And I never used to go out and show myself
Cos I got everything I need.
And you need to stop that now
You used to stop me doing what I wanted
And now I cant do it anymore
Cos I discovered theres something about me
That everybody wants some more
That everybody wants some more.
This time Im gonna get it right
Im gonna play my bass at the Guggenheim.
This time Im gonna get it right
Im gonna play my bass at the Guggenheim
This time Im gonna get it right
This time Im gonna get it right.
This time Im gonna get it right
Im gonna play my bass at the Guggenheim.

And after all thats said and done
I had to
Pick myself up and find myself at number one.
Cos this isnt about you anymore
This is all about me.
It wasnt your fault that I was living up in a tree.
I was waiting for things
I was waiting for things to come to me.
We were never in love
And we were never meant to be.
All the things that you said
I dont hold you responsible.
I needed to get myself together
And thats whatve I gone and done
And thats what Ive gone and done
And thats what Ive gone and done.
And now Im here right now
And my life has just begun.
My life has just begun!
This time Im gonna get it right
Im gonna play my bass at the Guggenheim.
This time Im gonna get it right
Im gonna play my bass at the Guggenheim
This time Im gonna get it right
This time Im gonna get it right.
This time Im gonna get it right
Im gonna play my bass at the Guggenheim.
