Pink - Try This Lyrics






Trouble

No attorneys to plead my case
No opiates to send me into outer space
And my fingers are bejeweled
With diamonds and gold
But that ain't gonna help me now

I'm trouble
Yeah, trouble now
I'm trouble y'all
I disturb my town
I'm trouble
Yeah, trouble now
I'm trouble y'all
I got trouble in my town

You think you're right
But you were wrong
You tried to take me
But I knew all along
You can take me
For a ride
I'm not a fool now
So you better run and hide

I'm trouble
Yeah, trouble now
I'm trouble y'all
I got trouble in my town
I'm trouble
Yeah, trouble now
I'm trouble y'all
I got trouble in my town

If you see me comin'
Down the street
Then you know it's time to
Go (and you know it's time to go 'cause here comes trouble)

No attorneys to plead my case
No opiates to send me into outer space
And my fingers are bejeweled
With diamonds and gold
But that ain't gonna help me now

You think you're right
But you were wrong
You tried to take me
But I knew all along
You can take me
For a ride
'Cause I'm a fool now
So you better run and hide

I'm trouble
Yeah, trouble now
I'm trouble y'all
I disturb my town
I'm trouble
Yeah, trouble now
I'm trouble y'all
I got trouble in my town

So if you see me comin'
Down the street
Then you know it's time to
Go (go-oh-oh, I got)

Trouble
Yeah, trouble now
I'm trouble y'all
I got trouble in my town
I'm trouble
Yeah, trouble now
I'm trouble y'all
I got trouble in my town

I'm trouble
Yeah, trouble now
I'm trouble y'all
I got trouble in my town
I'm trouble
Yeah, trouble now
I'm trouble y'all
I got trouble in my town
Yeah, yeah
I got trouble in my town
Yeah, yeah
I got trouble in my town
Yeah, yeah

God Is A DJ

I've been a girl with her skirt pulled high
Been the outcast never running with mascara eyes
I see the world
As a candy store
With a cigarette smile saying things you can't ignore
Like, mommy I love you
Daddy I hate you
Brother I need you
Love or hate, f*ck you, I can see everything
Here with my third eye
Like the blue in the sky

If God is a DJ, life is a dance floor
Love is the rhythm,you are the music
If God is a DJ, life is a dance floor
You get what you're given it's all how you use it

I've been a girl with her finger in the air
Unaffected by rumors the truth I don't care
So open your mouth, stick out your tongue
Might as well let go, you can't take back what you've done
Just find a new life style,reason to smile
Look for nirvana, under the strobe lights
Sequins and sex strings
You whisper to me
There's no reason to cry

If God is a DJ, life is a dance floor
Love is the rhythm,you are the music
If God is a DJ, life is a dance floor
You get what you're given it's all how you use it

Take what you get and get what you give
I said don't run from yourself,man, that's no way to live( no, no)
I've got a record in my bag,you should give it a spin
Put your hands in the air so that life can begin

(If God is a DJ, if God, say if God is a dj, if God
Then life is a dance floor)
Get your ass on the dance floor now!

If God is a DJ, life is a dance floor
Love is the rhythm,you are the music
If God is a DJ, life is a dance floor
You get what you're given it's all how you use it

If God is a DJ, life is a dance floor
Love is the rhythm,you are the music
If God is a DJ, life is a dance floor
You get what you're given it's all how you use it

If God is a DJ, life is a dance floor
Love is the rhythm,you are the music
If God is a DJ, life is a dance floor
You get what you're given it's all how you use it

Last To Know

[Chorus]
Why was I the last to know that you
Weren't coming to my show you could of
Called me up to say "good luck"
You could of called me back you stupid f*ck
Why was I the last to know?

First date, we ate sushi and
It went well, I was funny and
You said I was a cutie
That's the last thing I heard from you
I left tickets at the door for you
I had to tell my mom that there was
No more room
You didn't show, that was so uncool
You could of called me back

So I guess this means that we're
Not friends anymore, I heard
It's me you're askin' for, I thought
I'd see you at the show
You said you'd go

[Chorus]g

After the date, I wouldn't go
Home with you
I wouldn't put my heels in the
Air for you
You tried to get me to do things
I just won't do
Last I heard from you
Here is how I guess the story goes
You would of came if I was a ho
F*ck for parts that's just not how
I roll, move it on down the road

So I guess, we, shouldn't be
Friends anymore, sick of hearin'
That it's me you're asking for
Cause I thought I'd see you at the
Show, you said you'd go!

[Chorus]

You thought you know me
I guess you don't
You thought you had me
I think you didn't
You thought you knew me
But you didn't

Tonights The Night

[Chorus]
Well tonight's the night I'm gonna get right
Gonna hit the scene with my friends
Tonight's the night I'ma feel alright, feel alright again
Tonight's the night I'ma do what I gotta do to get out of here
Tonight's the night I'ma feel alright, feel alright again

Bought myself a quick, cheap ticket, looking for a brand new scene
Gotta get the hell outta Hollwyood cause everything is halloween
Hit the town brass knuckles, make all the good people stare
I hope I don't end up in jail, but then again I don't really care

[Chorus]

Think it's time to have some fun, but what am I gonna wear
And where are we gonna go, and who's gonna do my hair
Got these hot ass boots, but ain't got nothing to do
Somebody better give me some gas money, we're sitting here like fools

[Chorus]

I'm leaving today, I'm going far, far, far away
Got no reason to stay cause I don't wanna play
So can you hang, it's gonna be all night

[Chorus]

Bought myself a quick, cheap ticket, looking for a brand new scene
Gotta get the hell outta Hollywood cause every day is Halloween
Hit the town with brass knuckles, all the good people stare
I hope I don't end up in jail, but then again I don't really care

Oh My God

Put me on the table
Make me say your name
If I can't remember
Then give me all your pain
I can sit and listen
Or I can make you scream
Kiss it and make it better
Just put your trust in me

[Chorus]
Oh my God, go a little slower
Oh my God, what was that again
La da da, let me feel you baby
Let me in, 'cause I understand
Let me feel you baby
'Cause I understand

[Rap]
I understand all
Now climb my sugar walls
Problem solved it's dissolved
with the solvent known as spit
Lickity lick not so quick it's a
Slick ride make my mink slide
'Cause were all pink inside

This can be really easy
It doesn't have to be hard
Here baby let me show you
I'll have ya, climbing up the walls
You got all the problems
I think that I can solve
Why don't you come in here baby
Why don't we sit and talk

[Chorus x2]

[Rap]
You like the top and the bottom
You make a drop and then caught 'em
And when you rock then you've got 'em
Oh my God 'em oh my God 'em

Catch Me While Im Sleeping

[Verse 1]
How many times have you sat across from me?
And how many times have you told me you were leavin'?
I'm no tryin' to listen, 'cause it's all the same
And why, why are you constantly believing
That I, I could ever give you what you're needing?
Baby, baby, please don't put your faith in me
I don't know what to say
'Cause it's all a dream to me anyway

[Chorus]
You can catch me while
I'm sleepin', darlin'
While I'm dreamin', too
It's a lonely, lonely, lonely place
for me baby
It must get lonely for you, too

[Verse 2]
People always fallin'
In and out of love and
It can be pretty painful, too
And maybe, Oh maybe I'm just not strong enough
Sad but true
So tell me what's the use?

Oh, Oh You can catch me while
I'm sleepin', darlin'
Maybe While I'm dreamin', too
'Cause It's a lonely, lonely, lonely place
for me baby
It must get lonely for you, too

[Chorus (Out)]

Waiting For Love

She looks to the sun
Help her to carry on
Breaking down all the years
Wondering how she got here

She drifts through the sky
Counting the reasons why
How my life turns so fast
Remembering all of the past

All the changes and all the mistakes
Foolishly laughing at things that
Words that she said
She looks to the stars
Breaking time to follow the heart
Her world is falling apart

And the turning of every new page
A book on a shelf that is there to remain
Breaking the walls as she's tearing them down
As she is starting to drown

[Chorus]
She's waiting for love
She's waiting, waiting for love
She's waiting, waiting for love
She's waiting, waiting too long

She prays to the gods
Telling how she needs someone
Help me find where I am today
Life is looking very gray

All the changes and all the mistakes
Foolishly laughing at things that
Everything that she says

[Chorus]

I'm waiting for a new day to rise
Conversations to make sense to me in my mind
I need someone to lift me right up from my feet
And I want it, and I need it
And I ?

And all the changes I've made
And I remember the words that you never say

[Chorus]

She looks to the sun

Save My Life

She's back on drugs again
Even though she knows it ain't right
She can't even call up her friends
And say "help me save my life"
She's so ashamed of herself that she's
Come full circle
Nobody understands what it's like to
Be this girl
So she disappeared, and she
Wasn't clear, and she
Didn't say where she was going

[Chorus]
Save my life, won't you help me
Save my life, won't you help me
Save my life, can you hear me
Save my life, won't you help me

She had the man of her dreams
And some success
And she was so happy, and looking well
It was this one dark night, that she
Slipped
And then the next morning that she
Felt like a piece of shit
So she's hanging out, and she's
With the crowd, and she's
Travelin' where the wind is blowing

[Chorus]

And he's a real good guy and he
Wants to save her 'cause he's
More than been there all before
And she's so confused and his heart
Is breaking and he
Dreams she's knocking on his door

Try Too Hard

123...
You follow every line, you wear your perfect patch and style
But you're like a satellite and you're driftin' through the sky
You can't make up your mind about this or that, or anything at all
So you go with the flow and hope to God that no one knows it

[Pre-Chorus]
Everything you are, everything you say
Everything you do is not for you
Everything you feel, everything you know
You found it on your favorite TV show

[Chorus]
And it's people like you that make me sick
I'm surrounded by you everywhere i look

[Verse 2]
You're telling everyone how different that you really are
But it's been said before, so maybe you're not special after all
If you put the same amount of effort into letting go
Just act yourself and you might like it, you never know

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause everything you want, everything you do
You try so hard to be everyone but you
Everywhere you turn, you just gotta learn
It's easier if you don't try so hard

[Chorus (2x)]

And it's people like you that make me sick
I'm surrounded by you everywhere I look
Is there somewhere I can go to get away
Where there's truth and people mean just what they say

[Bridge]
You try too hard
You just try too hard
You try too hard

[Chorus]
And it's people like us that make me sick
Im surrounded by it everywhere I look
Is there somewhere we can go to get away
Where there's truth and people mean just what they say

[Bridge]
You try too hard
You just try too hard

Humble Neighborhoods

We don't want to go home
We're bad people and we do bad things [x2]

Here we go, don't ya know
We're the ones that keep it wicked
Rock n' Roll, all good, mix it up
That's my ticket
Cruisin' in my Cadillac Escalade trickin'
Sometimes like it easy, sometimes
Like it rugged
Keep control, don't ya know
Hit the floor, run for cover
Flew around the world about fifty times over
From New York to LA to the white cliffs of
Dover, the road can be my enemy
The road can be my lover

(watch how we do this here
Yeah, watch how we do this here)

[Chorus]
From the humble neighborhoods
We're takin' over the dance floor
From the humble neighborhoods
We're gettin' out of control

Here we go, don't ya know
We're the ones that make it crazy
This ain't time to get lazy
Meetin' at 11 in the hotel lobby
Same faces, different places
Never knowin' where we going now
Someday I'm gonna die but it
Won't be from boredom
If you've got the skills then I suggest
That you throw down
Meet us at the spot 'cause it's
Gonna be a showdown
Naw, you can't ride the bus
Man you better cool down

Walk Away

I gave you three years of my life
You always said I'd be your wife
What happened to the days when
Life was simple (So Simple)
Everyone knows my name
I haven't changed, I'm the same girl
I was from the start
Everything's rearranged, you came
And changed it and gave me a broken heart
You don't want to work it out, no
You want to take the easy route

[Chorus]
You throw your hands up and you walk away
When times get hard you always walk away
You get mad and say you're leavin'
Why is it so hard for you to talk to me?
When it's so easy for you to walk away

So here I am, driving down the street
Lookin' for a sign, when will I meet
The man of my dreams?
When will he come to me?
When will he come to me?
I'm sick of trying, I'm goin' home back
To PA where I come from
And you can stay here and spend your
Whole life running, But baby I'm
Gonna move on
You don't want to work it out, no
You want to take the easy route

[Chorus]


So there I go, I'm leavin' you alone
What will you do, now all your fears
Came true
You had my heart, you had my soul
You had it all- didn't you
Cause I'm sick of tryin' I'm goin' home
Back to Philly where I come from
And you can stay here and spend your
Whole life running, but baby it's
Time to move on
You didn't want to work it out, no
You just wanted the easy route

[Chorus]

I'm gonna do the same
I'm gonna walk away
I'm gonna walk away
How does it feel baby?
I'm gonna walk away

Unwind

I hide my pain like the rest of them
That's why I'm always laughing
I'm troubled, I'm brilliant and miserable too
That's why I am so funny
I swallow down all my fears
With a bottle made of silver
I've only been here for 27 years
But already my life is over

[Chorus]
And I need to unwind, yes, and I
I need to unwind, yes, and I
Want all the time
To be loved, to unwind

My life is like a fairytale
That nobody believes in
I can't remember anything
Not the people, not that places I've been
Just one more day you can make it, babe
That's what I tell myself
And everything that I love in life
It is killing me, 'cause it's bad for my health

[Chorus]

Somebody comfort me
S, southern comfort me
Somebody comfort me
S, southern comfort me

Love Song

I've never written a love song
That didn't end in tears
Maybe you'll rewrite my love song
If you can replace my fears
I need your patience and guidance
And all your lovin' and more
When thunder rolls through my life
Will you be able to weather the storm?
There's so much I would give ya, baby
If I'd only le myself
There's this well of emotions
I feel I must protect
But what's the point of this armor
If it keeps the love away, too?
I'd rather bleed with cuts of love
Than live without any scars
Baby, can I trust this?
Or do all things end?
I need to hear that you'd die for me
Again and again and again
So tell me when you look in my eyes
Can you share all the pain and happy times
'Cause I will love you for the rest of my life
This is my very first love song
That didn't end in tears
I think you re-wrote my love song
For the rest of my years
I wil love you for the rest of my Life

Hooker

[Chorus 2x]
And you ain't nothin' but a hooker
Sellin' your f*ckin' soul

Back up! They want you, I swear
You got no worries, you got no cares
All you got is motherf*ckers who will jock you
Yeah, you got money in your pocket
And you shoot up the ground like a rocket
You move so fast, lord you can't stop it
There you are in the club swingin'
And I'm just standin' there, standin' there laughin'
All the things people have you believin'
I feel sorry for your ass is out of season
Maybe you should think of cuttin' down drinkin'
Cause you look like a fat rat sinkin'
I coulda helped you, but you had to act out
You don't have a f*ckin' clue what I'm about

[Chorus 2x]
And you ain't nothin' but a hooker
Sellin' your f*ckin' soul

I saw it comin' through the line like a full back
You're a crack slack, a f*ckin' rap back (yeah)
Don't react, you're not fact
Don't give a f*ck, yes, like that
What you gonna do now that you ain't got nothin'
Look around honey, you been frontin'
Everybody knows that you're a fraud! (And I'm making records!)
My salutations, no hesitations
No reservation, just cancellation
And if I blow it then I blow it
Cause I'm a poet and I know it

[Chorus 2x]
And you ain't nothin' but a hooker
Sellin' your f*ckin' soul

[Repeat until fade]
You wanna try me
Don't you know--

Back to: Pink


Try This is the third studio album by American singer Pink, released on November 11, 2003, by Arista Records. Wanting to expand more on the rock sound, which she explored on her previous record, Missundaztood, for Try This Pink collaborated with punk band Rancid's singer and guitarist Tim Armstrong, and reunited with Linda Perry, who produced most of the Missundaztood album. As a result of this collaboration, Try This is a rock and roll and pop record, with lyrics exploring such themes as love and estrangement.

Try This received generally favorable reviews from music critics. However, retrospectively Pink herself expressed dissatisfaction with the record. She said that she was unhappy with the way the label wanted her to make an album after the success of M!ssundaztood. Commercially, the album was moderately successful, reaching the top ten in 13 countries, including the US, where it peaked at number nine on the Billboard 200. Internationally, the album also fared quite well, peaking at number three in the UK, and number eight in Canada. It was certified Platinum in the US by the RIAA for shipments of over one million copies.

Three singles were released from the album. The lead single, "Trouble", reached the top ten in Australia, Canada, the UK, and many European countries. Trouble earned Pink her second Grammy Award, for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance at the 2004 Grammy Awards. "God Is a DJ" and "Last to Know", the second and third singles from the album respectively, were modestly successful in European charts.

However, all of the singles from Try This failed to garner much success in the US. Some of the album pressings also included the single "Feel Good Time" from the soundtrack for the movie Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle. Pink supported the album with her Try This Tour in 2004, which performed across Europe and Australia. The live recording of the Manchester show was released in 2006, titled Pink: Live in Europe.
