(On the live performance I have from an Los Angeles show, Butch says "This is my song about Ashton Kutcher" xd )
Artist: Butch Walker
Song: Lights Out
Album: Letters
There was a blackout in my heart in the summer of '03
I was walking over bridges
Tryin' to find my way to me
When the power was restored
I can't describe the damage done
This would be the first time
And no it wasn't fun
All these aging hipsters with another axe to grind
So put me on the battle field
Where hardcore goes to die
Can I get a hell yeah
(If you're as lost as I am)
Yeah dawg
(If you hate that expression)
Doggin' on others is now my profession
Since you blew the lights out in my heart
I'm feeling kinda bored so let's go charge up that electrical car
We'll all put on those stupid trucker hats
And head out to a bar
We'll end up in the standard in the bathroom
Doing coke - this is very Hollywood
And yeah I get the joke
Everything tastes better
When the novacaine sets in
So have a second helping of the ones you call your friends
Can I get a hell yeah
(If you're as lost as I am)
Yeah dawg
(If you hate that expression)
Doggin' on others is now my profession
Since you blew the lights out in my heart
**
Oh, I'm gonna get drunk,
Vodka rhymes with lotsa
Bourbon rhymes with hurtin'
These are things I'm gonna feel
This much I know is certain
Can I get a hell yeah
(If you're as lost as I am)
Yeah dawg
(If you hate that expression)
Doggin' on others is now my profession
Since you blew the lights out in my heart
** On the live recording I have... spoken here, talking with the audience:
"See, I was just thinking that I shouldn't pull that song out because I didn't want Los Angeles to get mad at me. Cuz, it's not like I dis on you, there's posers in every city. We all got those "velvet rope" ********... we got 'em in the White House too. (laughs) I mean, what kinda guy thinks it's cool to go over and bomb a country just because they don't like him? That's kinda weird. That's like me walking into Amoeba and, like, punching a girl in the face for havin' a ******** Hilary Duff CD and not mine. I'm not gonna hit her..... hard."
