Street Lights Songtext
von Mike Boyd

Blame it on the street lights
Blame it on the cold nights
Blame it on the radio, the radio, the radio
Blame it on the street lights, oh
Blame it on the radio, the radio, the radio

I blame it on the weed when I don′t wanna write

I'd rather go to sleep and just call it a night
I′ve been making up excuses for all of my life
Still making up excuses for all of my life
I blame it on depression cause when it sets in
I just put a couple pills on my tongue then digest them
Overwhelmed with emotions but can't express 'em
Girls always saying that I never show affection
I′m numb to it all so I turn to the liquor

Red Bull and vodka delivered to my liver
A different person when I′m drunk, think I like that guy more
Half robot, half man, living like a cyborg
Oh, oh, I am missing my ambition
Trying to find my niche but time is ticking


Spitting for a living ain't what I envisioned
I′m trying to do the math but it's so science-fiction

Blame it on the street lights
Blame it on the cold nights
Blame it on the radio, the radio, the radio
Blame it on the street lights, oh
Blame it on the radio, the radio, the radio
Yeah, I used to play my music high, let the days pass by
Still I

Blame the sun, and the moon, and the stars, in the sky
Blame the light, in the day, blame the dark, in the night

And I blame it on the haters who pick the time of day to
Write you up an email to say how much they hate ya
Bash and degrade ya, laugh in my face, ha
Tell me I should never be with class up on stage, nah
It′s just their nature to hit below the belt
I blame it on the fact they're insecure about their self


Can′t be concerned when those words come out your mouth
Cause that's all they are is words and nothing else
I blame it on no sleep and I'm too tired
There′s yard work to do and the car needs new tires
My son′s learning how to crawl so just in case he falls
Gotta baby-proof the household and hide all the loose wires
New sun, used diapers

These songs, you aspire

And belong, Foo Fighters
I can't deny that I

Blame it on the street lights
Blame it on the cold nights
Blame it on the radio, the radio, the radio
Blame it on the street lights, oh
Blame it on the radio, the radio, the radio
Yeah, I used to play my music high, let the days pass by
Still I

Blame the sun, and the moon, and the stars, in the sky
Blame the light, in the day, blame the dark, in the night

So many excuses and always some reason
To miss those opportunities and never ever seize them
Blame it on my luck or the cards that I was dealt
But if I never even try I′ll only blame it on myself
