Waster Lyrics


I love my life on Mars
It has a side of perfect slumber
Just like a lucky charm
Keeps the nights from mornings afterAnd though I find it hard
I might say with a gay abandon
Girl, we got it all
A room with a view of the rings of Saturn
Girl, we got it all
Come spend your life on MarsIf you taste it, la la la, don't waste it, la la la
If you have the thing, you've always desired
Don't break it, la la laIf you crave her, la la la, don't waster her, la la la
If you have the one, you've always desired
Don't break her, la la la
I said you waste her, you wasterMy mind may go astray
But that don't mean that you should follow
This road to Mandalay
Where you might drown when the water's shallowAnd though you'll find it hard
You might add with a gay abandon

Now, girl, we got it all
On Santa Monica Boulevard
Girl, we got it all
Come hang on the BoulevardIf you taste it, la la la, don't waste it, la la la
If you have the one, you've always desired
Don't break it, la la laIf you crave her, la la la, enslave her, la la la
If you have the one, you've always desired
Don't break her, la la la
I said you waste her, you wasterIf you taste it, la la la, don't waste it, la la la
If you find the thing, you've always admired
Don't break it, la la laIf you crave her, la la la, enslave her, la la la
If you find the one, you've always desired
Don't break her, la la laI said you waste her, you waster
(La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la)
You waster, you waster
(La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la)

There are two bands under the same name:
1) A British indie rock band
2) An American emo band active in the early 90's

1) Gomez are an English indie rock band. Their first album, Bring It On, won the Mercury Music Prize in 1998. The genesis of Gomez was the meeting of four friends from Southport. Guitarist and vocalist Ian Ball and drummer Olly Peacock had previously played together in a local heavy metal band called Severed. They joined with guitarist / vocalist / keyboardist Tom Gray and bassist Paul Blackburn. Ian Ball met vocalist / guitarist Ben Ottewell (from Matlock Bath in Derbyshire) at Sheffield University, where they were both studying.

The band played their first gig together in late 1996 in Leeds without a formal name. The band left a sign out for a friend of theirs whose surname was Gomez to indicate that it was the site of their first gig. People saw the sign and assumed that the band's name was Gomez - the name stuck.

The band started recording four-track demos in a garage in Southport soon after. A bidding war erupted when they sent the demos to recording labels, with the band finally signing with Virgin Records' subsidiary, Hut, in 1997.

Gomez's career trajectory has led to the band's name taking on a new meaning. Also known as "Mercury Poisoning", To "do a Gomez" now means to release a debut album so successful and to such unanimous praise that expectations are raised to the point where it is impossible to follow it. This is in reference to the fact that whilst Bring It On is still regarded as one of the best British albums of the late nineties, its follow-ups have met a mixed critical reception and disappointing sales. Despite this their second album was quite popular and allowed them to go on a world tour. They sold out a number of venues though never became a stadium band like Oasis. They still produce music and have a loyal following amongst fans of the best of late 90's rock.
