Bravo
The Internet Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This karma thing, don't pick and choose
So every time that you perform
I learn just a little more
What a waste, babe, what a shame
You were playing games
Words come out your mouth
Watching from the crowd, it's astounding
You're on your way
Thought that you had changed
I found out it's just a role you play
Well bravo, baby
Bravo, baby oh
My love let's get this straight
This ain't your show, this ain't your stage
So no more standing ovations brought
Well played, baby
Save it for the main stage, baby
Go back to where you came from, came from
Words come out your mouth
Look around, what a mess you made
Watching from the crowd, it's astounding
You're on your way
Thought that you had changed
I found out it's just a role you play
Well bravo, baby
Bravo, baby yeah
Yeah
Yeah, yeah
Look
Ooh yeah
Ooh yeah
I'm saying
Ooh yeah
Ooh yeah
Yeah
Ooh yeah
Ooh yeah
Damn
Ooh yeah
My, my, my, my, my
Ooh yeah
My, my, my, my, my
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I've never seen a group use the guitar as an accent to the bass. But let me tell you, Steve CARESSES that bass line with those smooth skills of his
Dante Summers
Or The Red Hot Chili Peppers. 😉
Joe Mama
Then you haven't heard of Primus or Les Claypool lol
