lyrics

Hey coach, give me some playing time

What good am I? Training

Just for standing in line

Don't you know I can put 'em away?

Don't you know I can sit 'em down?

She's in the stands tonight

And I gotta make her proud


She's got a face like silence

A gaze that transcends

What it means to be a man, these day

You waste a good ol' time

Wondering if these walls have seen something better

Waiting for Time to throw you back to the pitcher

Oh, but ain't it a bitch?

When you see the final score

And the cheerleaders don't ask for more

They leave as soon as the last call comes, they leave as soon as the last call comes

And the players follow them

With tumors in their eyes


And I can feel the current

When I stand upon the mound

And though she's never on the field

She's always on the highlight reel

Never just a face in the crowd


Hey coach, let me paint the black

So what if I, always hate keeping track of

What I've said or done

You hang around till it's no more fun, you hang around till it's no more fun

Whether you've lost or won

You're headed home, you're headed home

Whether you've lost or won


And I can feel the current

When I stand upon the mound

And though she's never on the field

She's always on the highlight reel

Never just a face in the crowd


You waste a good ol' time

Wondering if these walls have seen something better

Waiting for Time to throw you back to the pitcher

Oh, but ain't it a bitch?

When you see the final score

And the cheerleaders don't ask for more

They leave as soon as the last call comes, they leave as soon as the last call comes

And the players follow them

With tumors in their eyes

I never thought I'd be one of them

I never thought I'd be one of them

I never thought I'd be one of them

Oh, I never thought

I'd be one of them


Hey coach, let me throw the heat!

'Cos it's the, only thing

That makes me feel complete

So say my name over the PA

Because I know you need me out there today

And I promise you that I'll throw ok

Throw ok

Throw ok

Popular Tongues image

Popular Tongues Chicago, Illinois

Sitting on a couch at their drug dealers house, 5 young men with the world in their hands decided to start a rock n' roll band. "You play bass, you play keys, you play drums and Dylan he sings." Songs that are fun with beats that make you dance. Songs that are emotional drawing the world at a glance. That is the band, Popular Tongues, whose songs still play even after the show is done. ... more
