Lyrics:
Take away the sensation inside
Bitter sweet migraine in my head
Its like a throbbing toothache of the mind
I can't take this feeling anymore
 
Drain the pressure from the swelling,
This sensation's overwhelming,
Give me a long kiss goodnight
and everything will be alright
Tell me that I won't feel a thing
So give me Novacaine
 
Out of body and out of mind
Kiss the demons out of my dreams
I get the funny feeling, that’s alright
Jimmy says its better than air,
I’ll tell you what

Drain the pressure from the swelling,
This sensation's overwhelming,
Give me a long kiss goodnight
and everything will be alright
Tell me that I won't feel a thing,
So give me Novacaine
 
Oh novacaine!
 
Drain the pressure from the swelling,
This sensation's overwhelming
Give me a long kiss goodnight
and everything will be alright
Tell me Jimmy I won't feel a thing,
So give me Novacaine

Lyrics:

Do you have the time
To listen to me whine
About nothing and everything
All at once
I am one of those
Melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone
No doubt about it
 
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Am I just stoned?
 
I went to a shrink
To analyze my dreams
She says it's lack of sex
That's bringing me down
I went to a whore
He said my life's a bore
So quit my whining cause
It's bringing her down
 
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Uh, yuh, yuh, ya
Grasping to control
So I better hold on
 
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Am I just stoned?

Lyrics:
Slip inside the eye of your mind 
Don't you know you might find 
A better place to play 
You said that you'd never been 
But all the things that you've seen 
Will slowly fade away
 
So I start a revolution from my bed 
'Cause you said the brains I had went to my head 
Step outside, summertime's in bloom 
Stand up beside the fireplace 
Take that look from off your face 
'cause You ain't ever gonna burn my heart out 

And so Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as we're walking on by 
Her soul slides away, but don't look back in anger 
I heard you say 

Take me to the place where you go 
Where nobody knows, if it's night or day.
Please don't put your life in the hands 
Of a Rock 'n Roll band 
and throw it all away 

Gonna start the revolution from your bed 
'Cause you said the brains I had went to your head 
Step outside the summertime's in bloom 
Stand up beside the fireplace 
Take that look from off your face 
You ain't ever gonna burn my heart out 

And So Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as we're walking on by. 
her soul slides away, but don't look back in anger 
I heard you say 

And So Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as we're walking on by
Her soul slides away, but don't look back in anger 
I heard you say
 
So Sally can wait, she knows it's too late and we're walking on by
Her soul slides away, but don't look back in anger, don't look back in anger 
I heard you say
 
It's not today.

Lyrics:
We both lie silently still 
In the dead of the night 
Although we both lie close together 
We feel miles apart inside 

Was it something I said or something I did 
Did my words not come out right 
Though I tried not to hurt you 
Though I tried 
But I guess that's why they say 

Every rose has it's thorn 
Just like every night has it's dawn 
Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song 
Every rose has it's thorn 

Yeah it does 

I listen to our favorite song 
Playing on the radio 
Hear the DJ say love's a game of easy come and 
Easy go 
But I wonder does he know 
Has he ever felt like this 
And I know that you'd be here right now 
If I could have let you know somehow 
I guess 

Every rose has it's thorn 
Just like every night has it's dawn 
Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song 
Every rose has it's thorn 

Though it's been a while now 
I can still feel so much pain 
Like a knife that cuts you the wound heals 
But the scar, that scar remains 

I know I could have saved a love that night 
If I'd known what to say 
Instead of makin' love 
We both made our separate ways 

But now I hear you found somebody new 
And that I never meant that much to you 
To hear that tears me up inside 
And to see you cuts me like a knife 
I guess 

Every rose has it's thorn 
Just like every night has it's dawn 
Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song 
Every rose has it's thorn

If I Fell (The Beatles) - Contraband [Acoustic]

We are 4 Singaporeans who love music and love to play music. We hope you enjoy our music! :D

4 boys from different backgrounds got together one day to do a show for our teachers. And we're here from there! We were once Hans and The Chewbaccas but that was lame. So we are now ContraBand. We got our names from contraband ciggs. And of course, we like to lepak.

We like to jam and record music! Live performances are not a problem. We aspire to write our own songs! We live by the word 'lepak'. :D
