Rubberband Lyrics


(Keith, Hannon, Wheat)
You should never take more than you can lend
Unless you wanna break you're gonna have to bend
Keep your mind at ease, your heart close at hand
The more you realize and the more you seem to understand
Ooh, will there be love to be made
Ooh, isn't it left anyway
I thought you was dyin' to love me, not to love on a shelf
Before you hurt somebody else you've got to help yourself
Ooh, are you ready today, you'd better be, 'cos there's hell to pay
[Chorus:]All the lightning and thunder - out of hand
Ready or not, now tell me what's your plan
It gets to be all you can stand - rubberband
You got the [feels like] like a rubberband
I thought what was easy, well it turned into hell
Before I please somebody else I've got to please myself
I said ooh, is this a game that you play, it might as well be anyway

[Chorus][Solo]All the lightning and thunder - out of hand
Ready or not, now tell me what's your plan
It gets to be all you can stand - rubberband
Just lay back just like a rubberband
Ready or not - what's your plan
Tell me what is your interest, show me where you stand
You're my release, your heart close at hand - rubberband
Bounce back just like a rubberband man
Rubberband, rubberband, rubberband, rubberband, rubberband
You got to bounce back, snap back, to the mouth if you can
Like a rubberband man

The White Ravens claim they were born on long ago, on a radioactive panda far, far away, when bassist and vocalist Amy Bennett, asked her keyboard playing brother, Will, if he wanted to start a rock band in 2004. They describes themselves as purveyors of music that takes you on a journey to places to places that only exist in your imagination.

They combine strange but melodic keyboard compositions with witty lyrics and distinctive vocals. Their lyrics are influenced by the exploits of comic book superheroes, marine biology, and video games. Many of their musical inspirations start with the letter "B": Beatles, Bob Dylan, Bach, and Bertold Brecht. Non-B influences include: Monty Python, Gilbert and Sullivan, They Might Be Giants, honky tonk, gypsy, and all kinds of alternative music.

Now ages 21 and 20, they have recently recorded in late 2012 their well-reviewed CD, Saddle Up The Whales, featuring drumming by Billy Joel's drummer of 30 years, Liberty DeVitto. This CD was recorded at Ghetto Recorders in Detroit by Jim Diamond and at Big Sky Recording in Ann Arbor by Geoff Michaels.

The White Ravens were awarded Best International/USA/Out of Province Band for the 2010 Toronto Independent Music Awards. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
