Tiger Punch
Little girl chilling in the beams
Black and gold wet football dreams, uh-huh
Pretty kitty new to the scene
Will your little tongue make them clean
Shake it all out for the team now baby
Sweet long tiger from The Hammer
Flare skies till you see Niagara
Sweet long tiger from The Hammer
Flare skies till you see Niagara
They host The Dead at the ballet place
A miracle to steal your face, uh-huh
Living whiskey with a Steeler chase
Never leave another drop to waste
Trade a year for a one-night taste now baby
Sweet long tiger from The Hammer
Flare skies till you see Niagara
Sweet long tiger from The Hammer
Flare skies till you see Niagara
Take a harbour dip for your shot
Half the fun is you might be caught
You won't feel dirty as you thought now baby
Sweet long tiger from The Hammer
Flare skies till you see Niagara
Sweet long tiger from The Hammer
Flare skies till you see Niagara

Spark It Up
Oh, it's been known
Sometimes my head don't know where it's goin'
10pm, the sun kicks up the moon
And the smell of summer weed rises again
I catch your eye and for half an hour
I'm the subject of your wine soaked lines to your friends
Night moves on, i feel your whipser down my neck
And I admit my eyes were elsewhere a moment ago
You turn it up, but I could just let all of this slide
Forget how you looked swaying to the show
But you had to kiss me
You found my flashpoint
You had to touch me
Make we wanna spark it up, spark it up
1am, who invited them?
The vibe has changed with strangers out of range
They'll flag the heat, cut this gathering short
But the drummer rolled my paper with your name
Far too soon, you had to disappear
It happens in this trade of moonshine ways
Hope the sound of the blue steel 44
Didn't scare your friends too bad when you drove away
But you had to kiss me
You found my flashpoint
You had to touch me
Make we wanna spark it up, spark it up
You wanna try it again? Try it again? 4x
Far too soon, you had to disappear
It happens in this trade of moonshine ways
Hope the sound of the blue steel 44
Didn't scare your friends too bad when you drove away
But you had to kiss me
You found my flashpoint
You had to touch me
Make we wanna spark it up, spark it up

News to Me
(Douglas)
How do I get your face out of my video
How do I get your face out of my video
How do I get your face out of my video
Will it fade again, like the frontline men
Fighting for their faceless God again
How do I get your pulse out of my metronome
How do I get your pulse out of my metromone
How do I get your pulse out of my metromone
Do I betray your heart in the name of art
And let my words stick in you like a dart
It ain't news to me, your broken attitude
It ain't good for me, to make it work for you, no
How do I get your voice out of my audio
How do I get your voice out of my audio
How do I get your voice out of my audio
Cause I know that sound, will bring me down
Penetrate my buzz when you come 'round
How do I get to sink you with no submarine
How do I get to sink you with no submarine
How do I get to sink you with no submarine
Just cause this war is cold, and I feel my heart getting old
Like the difference in what you do or you're told
It ain't news to me, your broken attitude
It ain't good for me, to make it work for you, no
It ain't news to me, your broken attitude
It ain't good for me, to make it work for you, no

Needed to Miss You
(Douglas/Burns/Melanson)
Talking in tongues no one understands
Kissing the salt of your tear on my hand
No taking back the tracks I've made behind me
This is how you found me
Stumble as wine grabs a hold of my spine
You're lit up just like a jack'o'lantern's smile
Slip off the grid to find the high
And touch these city lights
I needed to miss you
I needed to miss you and the things that you go through
I needed to miss you
I couldn't let what we have just rust
Nothing worth growing survives in dust
We're not complete until we've cried
You're stuck here by my side
I needed to miss you
I needed to miss you and the things that you go through
I needed to miss you
I needed to miss you and the cracks that you fall through

Move Your Skin
(Douglas)
Ooo-hooo, Hooo ooo-hoo, Hooo ooo-hoo, Hooo hoo hoo hoo (x2)
It's a weekend song for the hella-wrong
N'matter what you're on, it's a flash-fire run
For the brush and mud, for the booze and bud
For the sex and blood on a fresh, ripe gun
Leave behind your safety rope this leap ain't got no ground
Stretching forward to control the moonlit murder sound
Ooo-hooo, Hooo ooo-hoo, Hooo ooo-hoo, Hooo hoo hoo hoo (x1)
Gonna rip the tire, gonna swig desire
And inhale the fire with a switchblade tongue
And you're good to look, who you're gonna cook
With a passion hook, we're stacked, cut, hung
Move your skin to match your soul, the inside heat rings loud
Gel the sick love to the bone of alien radio sound
(solos)
Ooo-hooo, Hooo ooo-hoo, Hooo ooo-hoo, Hooo hoo hoo hoo (x2)
If they ask, you do, all you say is true
Every part of you like a white hot sun
And the fit is tight, every move is right
They'll be yours tonight, it's a grab, toss, won
Leave behind your safety rope this leap ain't got no ground
Stretching forward to control the moonlit murder sound
Move your skin to match your soul, the inside heat rings loud
Gel the sick love to the bone of alien radio sound
Ooo-hooo, Hooo ooo-hoo, Hooo ooo-hoo, Hooo hoo hoo hoo (x3)

Spin the Globe
(Douglas)
It was an overdue night on the town in my black skull sweater
She's looking so about of my league in your ebony stilletto
The city lights burning the dark, sniffing for a place to park
All just to take her home so we can spin the globe
Chirping at the lobby crowd lights to dim to feel
Can't smoke to hide our breath anymore,
Can tell her glasses ain't real
I buy the concession all out, the show smack'em dead no doubt
All just to take her home so we can spin the globe
Then a coked-up mess of a skank calls my woman a liar
The cat fight lands in the lot of the Canadian Tire
No one but this skank to thank, waking, shaking, aching in the tank
All just to take her home so we can spin the globe
All just to take her home so we can spin the globe
All just to take her home so we can spin the globe
All just to take her home so we can spin the globe
All just to take her home so we can spin the globe

Indoor Sunshine
(Douglas)
Open up your window inside
Make me wanna have one around
Been bankrupt of my luck for some time
I need somewhere clean to throw my bones down
Don't need to make you love me, just shine down
Don't wanna make you trust me, just shine down
Never have to say sorry, just shine down
And let these cold times melt to the ground
And let these cold times melt to the ground
You're not too young to swallow some pain
I know this from the lines on your hands
You're a detour and a lost memory
My reason to forget perfect plans
Don't need to make you love me, just shine down
Don't wanna make you trust me, just shine down
Never have to say sorry, just shine down
And let these cold times melt to the ground
And let these cold times melt to the ground
(solo bridge)
If you didn't want my heart that's alright
Been lost in the mail for some time
Through the coldest season I've ever had
You still make like you're some indoor sunshine
Don't need to make you love me, just shine down
Don't wanna make you trust me, just shine down
Never have to say sorry, just shine down
And let these cold times melt to the ground
And let these cold times melt to the ground
And let these cold times melt to the ground
And let these cold times melt to the ground

Afterglow
(Douglas)
The firelight shining on your skin
Evokes a hundred visions at a time
A posture like an siren with no tanline
Shape carved in my mind
Glistened by a moonlit touch
A face to perfect ever to be wrong
And I'm owned by the way you say my name
You pull me in, i feel your neck heat rising
Lips slip through your song
Sugar sweet seduction, sliver for the show
Petal-skin eruption, soak you to the core
The kind of snap shot in your life you save
For ever-lasting afterglow
Glow, glow, shine on me, sing the night away
And keep me warm
I try to grab a hold of something
Reach to bring your sceneted halo down
You're like the hit I need when clouds roll in
And all my luck of flight is bound
Heaven's never been defined
Knowing that you walk the ground with me
And only you could ever snare my heart
With soul-sharp eyes, crimson lips of yours
Control my energy
Sugar sweet seduction, sliver for the show
Petal-skin eruption, soak you to the core
The kind of snap shot in your life you save
For ever-lasting afterglow
Glow, glow, shine on me, sing the night away
And keep me warm
