Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sipping coffee at a quarter to two
I wake up and I'm dallin' and my minds running to you
No wonder I'm a one woman man
She keeps me hot in a jar on the nightstand
I should tell her that she couldn't be more
Opposite then a foot in a door,
There's no one else I would rather go out with, thats hell when I see them standing there
Me and my mouth we don't mean to be rushing
We talk about deep freely cause we crushing
I want to shake both sides of the brush ya
Theatrically I say we rock it

And when the coyotes, they sing in the park
It's when the city lights start fallin' for the sea
While them roads are windin' down
And the flying men'll hit the ground
Every motion is close to the touch
And the coyotes sing when they call on your lovin'

Coming back for more,
You know I'm coming for you
You know we should be should be together
While we rock, we won't put a stop
Not today not tomorrow.
You better lock your doors
You know why, cause we want you
'Cause when I kill a liar

I wish the world was a live like you.
I wish the world would help me through
Another repetuity to approach you
Another telepathic rendezvous
I wish you would walk when your jogging
You got a duty to sell in Mexico
I got to try to keep you acting shady
I don't like liking you when you walk because
I gotta figure out the snooze alarm
I want'a lay in a place till dawn
I want'a play in the park come on
Now let me see ya alarm in the lesh hello

And when the coyotes escape to New York
Then the city lights has crumbles to the sea
And the girls turned it into lost and found
The flying metal hit the ground
Every motion is closer to touching the coyotes singing
I'm a coyote and I got a taste for your loving

You know I will come for you
You know we should be, we should be together,
Because once we work we want to stop
Not today or tomorrow

Because once we work we want to stop
Not today or tomorrow

You know I will come for you
You know we should be, we should be together,




Because once we work we want to stop
Not today or tomorrow

Faith is the belief in something without evidence. That's the literal definition.

Which also means faith in matters such as this is really embracing stupidity.

The last thing hockey fans need in Arizona is faith. They need concrete action that's responsible, organized, and transparent. That's what gets things done the right way.

None of those terms apply to the Coyotes organization which is why they failed in the first place.

No new NHL team will ever be rewarded to the Phoenix area UNTIL an arena has been designed and fully (privately) funded, with a logical location already acquired in advance of being granted a franchise.

The area is not remotely close to offering any of that to the NHL right now.



@moonytheloony6516

Save the franchise?

From what?

Doan isn't Mario Lemieux and the Coyotes were not beloved enough to draw legions of local fans.

Did you see the ticket prices for the Mullett Arena? Outrageously priced. You'd think they were the Boston Bruins or the Chicago Blackhawks, in other words a team that has a legacy of HOF players AND Stanley Cups of which the Coyotes can't claim.

If you examine their entire history in AZ, they signed their death certificate when they agreed to move to Glendale, thereby distancing themselves from their core East Valley fan base, because Glendale is not a Tuesday night destination if one lives in the East Valley.

This is why their attendance was always among the NHL's worst. They continued to lose money year after year after year. It got so bad that Glendale quickly grew to dislike the Coyotes and made the decision to no-longer offer a lease in a stadium that was built for them in the first place.

The tag team of jesus christ & Elvis Presley managed by Thomas Edison couldn't save the Coyotes from the themselves.

They've been a clinically dead franchise for years, it's just that now, the life support has finally been disconnected and they're now declared deceased.



@moonytheloony6516

You're putting too much blame on the current owner as if he's always been in AZ, and though he bares some responsibility, the Coyotes were DOA when he bought em....The culpable parties go way back before Meruelo.

This is a story of many many many many chapters that were written before Meruelo.

The moment that the Coyotes moved to Glendale was the moment that their eventual departure from Arizona was promised.

They were bleeding money way before Meruelo came along. To be frank, I'm actually surprised he bought the Coyotes in the first place.

I wouldn't have done it.

They were always a financial mess.

Technically he went about a stadium the normal/usual way that owners typically do...he solicited the support of a local government in Tempe and they were on very much on board, which is something previous ownership groups failed to get done including the NHL who acted as owners for a few seasons.

That Tempe vote in '23 was expected to go in his favor...even I thought it would go through.

It didn't and it wasn't even close. Had it gone through then that arena is now under construction and Muruelo would be credited for at the very least preserving the franchise by returning the team back to its original East Valley fanbase.

But Muruelo, along with that Tempe City Council grossly underestimated the public opinion of their voters, who collectively told them to stick their arena straight up their candy asses, and that's when I and probably a lot of critically thinking people knew that they were officially done in Arizona.

I agree that Coyotes fans....all 25-30 of them, deserve a better owner but they also deserved a better team. Their team was unremarkable for the majority of their time in the Valley with zero Stanley Cups complicated by years of poor attendance which continued their loss of revenue.

It was always a bad product.

Ironically, the Coyotes did a LOT to promote the growth of hockey in the Phoenix area, but they failed to grow with it, which proved to be fatal.



@moonytheloony6516

Really?

Who's paying for that arena?
And where will they build it?

The state has grown VERY anti-stadium/arena in recent years politically. The population will have nothing and I do mean nothing to do with any public financing OR any tax breaks given to billionaire sports owners.

They've had it.
The line has been drawn.
Anything subject to a public vote will be choke-slammed through a table without hesitation.

There is zero indication that the Valley is even interested in investing in a new hockey arena right now or the foreseeable future. That Tempe vote in '23, which wasn't even close, should tell you something about the public sentiment.

4 different towns in 25 years years rejected the Coyotes. They had zero friends in high places in AZ.
Zero.

So any sentiment of "for sure it will happen" is nothing more than an emotional response to a loss.

And Winnipeg is already talking about how their team isn't meeting financial expectations, thus suggesting that their future in Winnipeg may be in jeopardy, so here we go again with the Jets and a familiar problem from the past creeping into 2024 and the issue is, big surprise, their current arena and the lack of attendance.

Sound familiar?

Coyotes ownership has been threatening fans for years, and they've been sick of being bullied. It was only a matter of time.

@user-rz1tl5ye1h

Trash owner, they should’ve never left Westgate until they had a new arena.

@Notvassyvr

he wasnt the owner when they didnt pay rent

@lordec911

Should have never moved to Glendale. That was the beginning of the end.

@Zach3ry

They were losing money in Glendale. It wasn’t sustainable. You can blame Scottsdales mayor and the Suns owner.

@dnasty312

The National Hockey League?

@js4190

Should have never left Winnipeg

Never supporting a Meruelo team in the future if he tries to come back. He lied to us till the end

@thestormofwar

To everyone. If you're being forced to pay hotel bills with certified cheques up front because you aren't paying them, it's time to move the kitty. The fact the NHL was forced to intercede on the hoterliers behalf was probably what did it in the end.

@dnasty312

It's the National Hockey League that didn't want to spend a few more years at ASU
