All This Could Be Yours Lyrics


I've been silent partner, I've been your shrink
I have heard you say: "look misfortuous speech"
But I'll have sympathy when you get off your seat
Before "there's been a mess" becomes a diseaseI have cracked the code on this old machine
Ten thousands hours to be released
But I've been wondering, why can't you see?
If the door opens up we go where it leadsI have been waiting
For you to find
That all of this could be yours
Be yours tonightCould be yours!
Could be yours!
Could be yours!
Could be yours!
Could be yours!
Could be yours!
Could be yours!You were packing up but I gave you a bed
You would rather crash then go straight ahead
I wrote this years ago but it's finished today

With the help of a friend who is finished the sameAnd I have been waiting
But you need a sign
That all of this could be yours
Be yours tonightI have been patient
But you've got to try
Then all of this could be yours
Be yours tonightCould be yours!
Could be yours!
Could be yours!
Could be yours!
Could be yours!
Could be yours!
Could be yours!
Could be yours!
Could be yours!
Could be yours!
Could be yours!
Could be yours!All this could be yours
And all this could be yours
And all this could be yours
And all this could be yours, could be yours
All this could be yours

Cold War Kids are an indie rock band from Fullerton, California, USA. The band members are Nathan Willett (lead vocals, piano, guitar), Jonnie Russell (guitar, vocals, percussion), Matt Maust (bass guitar) and Matt Aveiro (drums). According to Songfacts, Matt Maust came up with the band's name. He was inspired by a trip to Eastern Europe where he came across a big park where they'd dumped statues that had been removed after Communism fell. Within the park he found a playground and being in that environment the phrase 'Cold War Kids' popped into his head.

The band started in historic downtown Fullerton in Jonnie's apartment above the restaurant Mulberry St. (their first EP title) in 2004. They are avid supporters of unsigned talent such as the band Electric Furs. They have toured in support of Two Gallants, Tapes 'n Tapes, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Sound Team, Muse and The White Stripes. Their music is heavily inspired by artists such as Jeff Buckley, Bob Dylan, Velvet Underground and Johnny Segment. Recently they starred in an MTV2 special titled "Cold War Kids Takeover!" They appeared on Soccer AM and were announced as Norwich City F.C. Fans. They were going to tour with The White Stripes for their Icky Thump tour, but The White Stripes had to cancel.

In 2007, they contributed to OKX, a tribute to the 10-year-old Radiohead album OK Computer, recording their version of the track "Electioneering." Nathan Willett identified Radiohead and the album as a strong influence, saying, "It's the only album that I feel compelled to say way too grandiose things about, that rock journalists have already said plenty: Like that OK Computer is the single most important album to be released during my youth and that it was a rite of passage. But that really is the truth and I have never had an emotional connection with an album quite like I have with this one."

He also explained why the band chose to cover "Electioneering" from the album: "I'm not saying 'Electioneering' is the best song on the album, but (still, a big claim!) it's certainly the most badass. It's lyrically everything we want to do - bursts of concrete imagery."
