Aces Lyrics


I wish my life was like a John Hughes movie
Good times and easy on the dark side
I wish my life was like a John Hughes movie
Bright lights, always looking for a better lifeWe were looking for each other
In the bars on the west side
We were looking for the summer
When it's cold outsideThis is going to be goodLife is coming up aces
Everything is coming up aces
We found a way to make money out of
Broken boys and difficult girlsReality is wonderfulWe were... waiting
For the world to beginThings are so much better nowI have a good reason to
Want to get wasted againWe were slumming for a buzz
In a place that used to be the old school
We were happy for the pain of being
Lame enough to want to look coolI really think that this is going to be goodLife is coming up aces
Everything is coming up aces
We can make a good living out
Of broken lives and empty heartsAin't this entertaining watching people fall apartWe were wasting time waiting

For the world to beginThings are so much better nowI have a good reason to
Want to get wasted againBlack..., white trash
There isn't any limit to the shame
These people haveGood people do bad things
Have sex with an ex in the bathroom
On their wedding dayPretty faces with no soulEverybody needs a chance to
Win themselves a better lifeEverybody wins a better life
Everybody wins a better life
Everybody wins a better life
Everybody wins a better life

Everclear is a rock band formed in Portland, Oregon, USA, in 1992. For most of its existence, Everclear consisted of Art Alexakis (b. 12 April 1962, Los Angeles, California, USA; vocals, guitar), Craig Montoya (b. 14 September 1970; bass, vocals) and Greg Eklund (b. 18 April 1970; drums). Eklund replaced original drummer Scott Cuthbert in 1994. Montoya and Eklund departed the band in 2003, but Alexakis has continued performing as Everclear with a new lineup.

After a solo tour in the fall of 2003, Alexakis decided to continue with Everclear, organizing a new band that made its debut in March of 2004. The new lineup consisted of bass player Sam Hudson, guitarist Dave French, and drummer Eric Bretl. In the summer of 2004, the band added keyboard player Josh Crawley, and swapped Bretl for former Everclear drum tech Brett Snyder. The new lineup released its first recording, a cover of Woody Guthrie's This Land Is Your Land, that summer. A self-released EP of performances recorded for XM Satellite Radio called Closure was given out at shows in the fall of 2004.

Free of a major label, Alexakis spent the ensuing year and half slowly recording material for a new Everclear release. He admitted that the time after the breakup of the original lineup served as a "wake up call", during which he suffered his third divorce and a filing for bankruptcy. Alexakis announced the completion of the album in early 2006,titled Welcome To The Drama Club. The new band is now on Eleven Seven Music.

In August of 2008, drummer Brett Snyder left the band after four years. He was then replaced by Tommy Stewart, who previously played in bands Fuel and Godsmack.
