With a few notable exceptions, we’re not really Top 40 types.
Of course when you’ve had the misfortune of having “circle to the left … the old brass wagon” (don’t ask) in your head for 24 hours straight, sometimes you have to take desperate measures to get it out.
That’s when a good Top 40 hit – like OneRepublic’s “All The Right Moves” – can come in pretty handy.
Enjoy …
OneREPUBLIC: ALL THE RIGHT MOVES
All the right friends in all the right places
So yeah, we’re going down
They’ve got
All the right moves in all the right faces
So yeah, we’re going down
Let’s paint the picture
Of the perfect place
They’ve got it better then when anyone’s told ya
They’ll be the King of Hearts, and your the Queen of Spades
Then we’ll fight for you like we were your soldiers
I know we’ve got it good
But they’ve got it made
And their grass is getting greener each day
I know things are looking up, but soon they’ll take us down
Before anybody’s knowing our name
They’ve got…
All the right friends in all the right places
So yeah, we’re going down
They’ve got
All the right moves in all the right faces
So yeah, we’re going down
They say
Everybody knows, everybody knows where we’re going
Yeah, we’re going down
They say
Everybody knows, everybody knows where we’re going
Yeah, we’re going down
Do you think I’m special?
Do you think I’m nice?
Am I bright enough to shine in your spaces?
Between the noise you hear, and the sounds you like
Are we just sinking the ocean of faces?
It can’t be possible… the rain can fall
Only when it’s over our heads.
The sun is shining everyday, but it’s far away.
Over the world that’s dead.
They’ve got, they’ve got…
All the right friends in all the right places
So yeah, we’re going down
They’ve got
All the right moves in all the right faces
So yeah, we’re going down
[Repeat]
They say
Everybody knows, everybody knows where we’re going
Yeah, we’re going down
They say
Everybody knows, everybody knows where we’re going
Yeah, we’re going down
It don’t matter what you see
I know I could never be
Someone that’ll look like you.
It don’t matter what you say
I know I could never fake
Someone that could sound like you.
All the right friends in all the right places
So yeah, we’re going down
They’ve got
All the right moves in all the right faces
So yeah, we’re going down
[Repeat]
They say
Everybody knows, everybody knows where we’re going
Yeah, we’re going down
They say
Everybody knows, everybody knows where we’re going
Yeah, we’re going down
Yeah, we’re going down [repeat x2]
All the right moves… heeey
Yeah we’re going down
They say
All the right moves… heeey
Yeah we’re going down
