Cool Blue Reason Lyrics


Cool blue reason
Empties on the page
Your colleagues are in prison
And your enemies enragedCool blue reason
Comes into your world
There's two more dead in Texas
And it's probably your girlsCool blue reason
Wraps around your throat
The minutes change like seasons
Only eight more hours to go
Only eight more hours to go
Only eight more hours, left to goCool blue reason
Comes into your life
There's one more dead in Kansas
And it's probably your wifeCool blue reason
I'm just talking to myself
Cool blue reason
I'm just re-arranging hell

I'm just talking to myself
I'm just talking
To myself
Ohh no
Are we?
Oh, oohCool blue reason
Wraps around your throat
The minutes change like seasons
Only eight more hours to go
Only eight more hours to go
Only eight more hours
Left to go
Ohh noHey, hey
Ohh,
Alright
Ohh no
Hey
Hey
Hey

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
CAKE is an alternative rock band which formed in 1991 in Sacramento, California, United States. The band consists of John McCrea (vocals, guitar), Xan McCurdy (guitar), Gabe Nelson (bass), Vincent DiFiore (trumpet, keyboards, vocals) and Paulo Baldi (drums). The band has released six albums: Motorcade of Generosity (1994), Fashion Nugget (1996), Prolonging the Magic (1998), Comfort Eagle (2001), Pressure Chief (2004) and Showroom of Compassion (2011). The band has been very successful on American alternative radio, with nine of their singles appearing on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart between 1993 and 2011.

B-Sides and Rarities was released October 2, 2007. It features a live cover of Black Sabbath's "War Pigs" and their cover "Mahna Mahna", which also appears on the charity CD "For the Kids" whose proceeds benefit the "VH1 SAVE THE MUSIC" organization.

CAKE's latest album, Showroom of Compassion, was released January 11, 2011. It was recorded at the Upbeat Studio in Sacramento, California with the help of recording engineer Pat Olguin.

Although CAKE's music is often classified as alternative or indie rock, it combines multiple musical genres, such as funk, pop, jazz, rap, and country. CAKE's music features droll lyrics rife with word play and syncopation (laconically voiced in a rap-like style by lead vocalist/guitarist John McCrea), catchy distorted guitar riffs (courtesy of guitarist Greg Brown until 1998, and bass player to Victor Damiani until 1997), and a solo trumpet (played by Vince DiFiore). CAKE's musical style has been compared to They Might Be Giants, Talking Heads, The Cars, and Camper Van Beethoven.

Damiani left the band in 1997, replaced by Gabe Nelson. Greg Brown left in 1998, replaced by Xan McCurdy. Brown and Damiani continued to work together when they formed the band Deathray. Todd Roper left the band to focus on parenthood after recording Comfort Eagle.

CAKE's biggest hits have included "The Distance", "Never There", "Sheep Go To Heaven" "Rock 'n' Roll Lifestyle", "No Phone", "Short Skirt/Long Jacket", and an alternative remake of Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive". An instrumental version of CAKE's "Italian Leather Sofa" is featured as the theme song to the cartoon Mission Hill. The song "Shadow Stabbing" from Comfort Eagle appears in the opening credits of the movies Orange County and Wordplay. The songs "Daria", "Rock 'n' Roll Lifestyle", and "Friend Is a Four-Letter Word" are featured as closing credit themes for episodes of Daria. The song "Frank Sinatra" was also featured at the close of The Sopranos episode "The Legend of Tennessee Moltisanti". The movie, "Me, Myself, and Irene" also featured CAKE's "Hem Of Your Garment". In the Tv-Series "Chuck", "Short Skirt/Long Jacket" is used in the intro of each episode.

Additionally, CAKE headlined the Unlimited Sunshine Tour festival in the summer of 2002 among an eclectic ensemble of bands including Modest Mouse, The Flaming Lips, De La Soul, Latin techno fusion band Kinky and bluegrass group The Hackensaw Boys.
