SIDEWAYS LYRICS:
My Bullet

If you don’t know by now
You may never smile again
You come back around with all your friends
You’ve got a lot of nerve
To look at me straight
Up and down my worth
Put a round in your face

Chorus:

Meet my bullet
Meet my bullet

If you don’t know by now
You may never smile again
You come back around with all your friends
You’ve got your mind all made
It’s this way ‘til the end
Behind my barricade
I want you to do it

Chorus:

Meet my bullet
Meet my bullet

If you don’t know by now
You may never smile again
You come back around with all your friends
You’ve got a lot of nerve
To look at me straight
Up and down my worth
Put a round in your face

Chorus:

Meet my bullet
Meet my bullet
Sideways

There’s what you want and what you need
And everything in between
You’ll get your more eventually
Now get in line and wait for me

Pre-chorus:
Hit the ground like you’re upside down
Sideways on a roundabout, you gotta
Get your more, is that a fact? No
But I’ve been told you’re grown to do without
But I’ve been told you’re grown to do without

Repeat Pre-chorus

Chorus:
Coming off the hinges
Little by little, creeping, slipping
‘Til it come tumbling down onto your head
You know it will, know it will
You see it.

It’s like any other day
Behaving in our peculiar way
You think we’re going forward instead
We go sideways, sideways
To be it

You’ll get your more eventually
Now get in line and wait for me

Repeat Pre-chorus
Repeat Chorus
Socialize Me

Got bought by silly laws
Kick ‘em to the curb just because
Now they pray to a person that there never was and
Bound to be some long term causes

Yeah if I can
Gonna grab more that I want, both hands
Stack it up we do it again now
Live it up in la la land now
Gonna get ‘em all lined up
Coming around the corner
Socialized and dried up
Come and get your disorder

Chorus:

Well give me ten more of something
Doesn’t really matter what it is
Turn the fountain on and keep it coming
Shower me with useless shit ‘til your done
You never seem done

Repeat First Verse
Repeat Chorus

We gotta back handed loving
Doing it all for the kids, tell ‘em what to want
A bunch of nothing
Now they see what it is to own this place
Free of cause and flow
Put ‘em all on track because we know
They see how far to go
To get what you want
To get what you want, you want, you want, you want……
Bad Situation

I don’t really mind you
And by that I mean
I don’t even notice you there
All the things that you do
How much in the middle or little you come
Bop Bapping your way
Through life’s little party
And call it cause
Burning up another day
But you won’t stop, ‘til you devour ours

Yeah, Yeah
It’s a bad situation
It’s alright, right, right, right, right

You got nothing to lose
Except a few pounds
And a life of pride
Don’t tell me what to do
So proud of yourself for doing now

Yeah, Yeah
It’s a bad situation, right now

Chorus:

I don’t know nothing about your bad situation
I know nothing about you
I know little but my love’s mostly imitation
Are you through, are you through?

I don’t know nothing about your bad situation
I know nothing about you
I know little but my love’s mostly imitation
Are you through, are you through?

I don’t really mind you
And by that I mean
I don’t even notice you there
All the things that you do
How much in the middle or little you come
Bop Bapping your way
Through life’s little party
Burning up another day
But you won’t stop, ‘til you devour ours

Chorus:

I don’t know nothing about your bad situation
I know nothing about you
I know little but my love’s mostly imitation
Are you through, are you through?
Care Less

You’ve got a mind of your own
You never worry, doubt leaves you alone
Unlucky as you are, it’ll come any day now
It’s going to be beautiful

Pre-chorus

What does it matter what gets said
Lifestyle we borrowed’s already dead
There’s no wonder left in our heads
And there’s no doubting it
Doesn’t feel right…..well

Chorus

They couldn’t care less, couldn’t care less
What you’re feeling about this

You’ve really let yourself go
Now all you wonder is what we’re hurrying for
Unhealthy as you are, it’s your lucky day now
They’re calling it beautiful

Repeat Pre-chorus
Repeat Chorus
Bag of Bones

I come back home couldn’t catch my breath
I sift through a bag of bones
Kept by the best of men left for dead
Dancing around the matter
Tired of you the latter
It’s about time you get on you indignant

But I can’t let go, it’s not like the rest
When you know what you want
It’ll be nothing like what you get
In the never ending chatter
Buried deep in the matter
It’s all running a bit long, isn’t it?

On a good night, come down slow in the grave
Hit the floor like, that bed the damned made
I do you a favor don’t watch it play out
You can thank me later
Good chance I’ll do it again

Gotta bag of bones, bound to get burned out
Stagger out the door, gently blur your eyes I’ll
Do you a favor, don’t watch it play out
You can thank me later
Good chance I’ll do it again now

Repeat all
Better Now

I can be so better now than what you knew
Easy to say, harder to do
Shine a light I’m coming through again
She said …….

It can be far better now than yesterday
We got more to give and more to gain
Shine a light I’m coming through again
Oooh yeah …..

Chorus
I feel like a heavy weight
Just let me out
Nothing standing in our way
We’re far better now, better now

Repeat verse
Repeat chorus
Bitch and Blame

All we do is bitch and blame
All we do is bitch and blame
What have I done to become cold as this
I said one thing is all it takes
We’re losing it

All we do is bitch and blame
All we do is bitch and blame
Now what have we done
What have I done

What am I doing in the middle of this shit?
On a losing streak, just another swing ‘n’ miss
All we do is bitch and blame

Chorus
But what about love?
What about love?
Oh that cold contradiction
That they’re selling us to buy love
You can’t buy love
How could we know what it is we want to fill up
It’ll never be enough
Chewing on your bone
Giving up on love

What about love? What about?
What about giving up on love
What about love? What about? What about?
What about giving up on love
All we do is bitch and blame

We’ve got delusions of goodness
Illusions at best
You said that we come civilized
Which meant ……

All we do is bitch and blame
All we do is bitch and blame
Now what have we done
What have we done

What am I doing in the middle of this shit?
Such a long time now only showing bitterness
All we do is bitch and blame
All we do is bitch and blame

Repeat Chorus
Slack Bastard/Problematic

Go get it if you want it
The goal is to get some
Decide that you own it
Then flaunt it, you did

Look at the glass it’s you looking back
There’s no-one better
The confident façade was unfounded
It didn’t matter, matter

Well have you ever shot one this big
Strong enough to hit all the kids, it kicks
Two in the back, one in the mind, didn’t know it
Now every little inch a slack bastard you think it’s showing

Slack Bastard, yeah
Slack Bastard, slack, slack. Slack

Doesn’t matter if you’ve got some, you’re probably alone
Direct hit and then it starts to flow, you know
It ain’t too bad, don’t mind me oh yeah, you didn’t
I can stand in the crowd and disappear there’s nothing to it

What we gonna do, do, do now?
Didn’t think about it too well
Got little left to prove now
And even less care
Yeah, Yeah couldn’t give it away
Not today, oh no its problematic

Well what you gonna do, do, do about it?
Looking like we’re doing nothing
Same song and dance around it
With no soul and no swing

Yeah, Yeah couldn’t give it away
Not today, oh no its not problematic
If you don’t think about it, about it, about it -No

TOUGH LOVE LYRICS:
THE RUNNER

What I own was in the bag shoes on the floor
Throw it over my shoulder run out the door
We can look back if we wanted to
We don’t

Running on through dark and day ‘til we can’t breathe
The sign says this is all but we don’t believe
I guess you’re gonna do what you got to
Then no sorries

She said:
What you see is what you get
The point of this life’s to live
We always knew we’d get away
But running didn’t change a thing

Go around the long way home ‘cause we can’t sleep
Then run through the vein of the city street
It’s either you do or you don’t do
There’s no in between

She said:
What you see is what you get
The point of this life’s to live
We always knew we’d get away
But running didn’t change a thing
It’s about that time again
Gonna pick up the lot and split
We always knew we’d get away
But running didn’t change a thing

What I own was in the bag shoes on the floor
Throw it over my shoulder run out the door
We can look back if we wanted to
We don’t

She said:
Repeat chorus
BIG HEAD

Sunrise is getting close
All the good people know nothing but the get up and go
Not you, you’re sitting out you don’t want to see it
He’s in the corner in the blind
Spot in the room where he’ll go unnoticed all night
Locked down with class and the clowns
Everyone knows it or they know it now

It’s what you do and you do it well
Fuck off with your big head

Heart’s beating like doing ‘caine
She’s bored and hoping to find something different from the same
Knocked down she sat in the crowd to think about it
Smiling at masses, did his best
To spend his days unseen and look like the rest
By now everyone knows
It’s hard to conceal it well here it goes

It’s what you do and you do it well
Fuck off with your big head

Well it was one more than he could hold
So he let go and then
She watched it fall down, hit the ground
Well sucker do as you’re told
Won’t waste her breath now
Sorting it out. when it’s all history
Or ask them not to fumble about
There gonna do it anyway
And it all remains the same

Sunset is getting close
Now all the good people coming home from the get up and go
But not you you’re stepping out
You didn’t want to see it then don’t want to see it now

It’s what you do and you do it well
Fuck off with your big head
BREATHE YOU IN

Letting go, it’s harder than the hold
And the days crawl by slow
You wanna be with it, but you’re without
And then it comes, inspires another one
Animates until it’s done
Just to be with you, I come around
I breathe you in, breathe you out now

So let it play, all through the masquerade
It soothes you anyway
Gonna do what you can to get it out
Then let it go, on to another one
You take it if it comes
Who’s to say what you’re with or you’re without
I breathe you in, breathe you out

When it’s gone, it’s never too long to wait for it
What can you lose when it’s all that’s in your head

Repeat 1st Verse

When it’s gone, it’s never too long to wait for it
What can you lose when it’s all that’s in your head
Now you know you’ve got me right where you wanted
I breathe you in, breathe you out
CONFETTI

Taking the long road home, you get back
Find your lover’s gone, but that’s where the 9’s at
Take assistance when you want
Beating the bad child down now, where you belong
Feeling, has got you feeling bad
Can you hold onto your head?

And then you break, you fold, you’re free, you’re beautiful
You said, it don’t matter much now to me
You’re a beautiful baby

We’re tripping our balls down the hall, to feel right
Looking for what you wanted, baby just not tonight
One sniff and you’re gone, you’re on the floor
Did you realize it ain’t happening no more?
But you need it, like your lord needs sin
You gotta hold on baby, that’s how you win

And then you break, you fold, you’re free, you’re beautiful
She said, don’t matter much now to me
You’re a beautiful baby

Repeat 1st Verse

Repeat Chorus
CONVERSATION

Will you have a conversation with me
I’m just three and I’d like to tell you things
Things I’ve seen you must’ve forgotten
I have this dream where everybody dies in

But you maybe later tell me
You might see now my mind is full of things
Things I’ve seen you could say I’m lost in
You’re a beautiful girl, not soon forgotten

Will you spend the whole day with me
I just think I’d like to play and things
Wonderful Ami, might say I brought here
That’s a great idea if I wasn’t so distracted

But you maybe later ask me
You might see now my mind is full of things
Things I’ve seen you could say I’m lost in
You’re a beautiful girl, not soon forgotten

BREAD & CIRCUSES LYRICS:
NEVER

Look at me now I'm flying facing the wind
The blues all around me
Don't worry I'm fine and I'll never give in
Then again you're not asking

Slap to the face so hard skips a beat in your heart
Now confusion has found you
You fight like a dog 'til the end right from the start
What can you do when it's all around you

So let's go down another road
We wanna move move move
But it's going so slow
So let's go

Lift up your head from the ground from down it's hard to tell
If you're close to what you are after
We're too far gone out of town to turn around now
Even though you feel like you have to

Look at me now I'm flying facing the wind
The same way that you found you me
Don't worry I'll fight and I'll never give in
To this great misunderstanding
Bread & Circuses

You see a truth get a bit uneasy
Like you're peeking through
Just belong do what they say
Look in from the cold
When you're only in the way

With the Republic dead they don't listen
But dictate instead
And they'll keep on doing 'cause the truth
Is that we don't seem to mind
Hang on are we coming to

It was easy to take away
When consumed by the flavor of the day
In the end what we find is
We're nothing but fools for your bread and circuses

I can't go through this on my own
They've got us labeled and boxed up alone
Couldn't find your mind never mind the coup
Now we're breaking through

One step more come out of the shadow
And take back control
'Cause we got nothing to gain
Without responsibility
Now we're coming to
Let Me Down

We rage for a warmer kind of day
She got a little bit more
It's hard to feel like you are
You could breath it in if it you wanted to

You fall when you give like you get
Never wanting to let go
You cling so tight to it
You could let it go if you want to

You let me down again

It's gone gone won't you step back son
It's all fumbling around
The gloss and the paint's peeling off
You hold on like you got to

The sabotage goes on and on
Wonder what it'd be like without it
You swear you'll fight but you go along
I couldn't see why you'd want to
In A Corner

You blink then it's gone
You can't lose something if you've got none
You've been on a solid run
Since your feet hit the ground

You don't want none
They make you plead and beg and then some
And I swear that they're having fun
Don't think I'll come back around

Yeah they can't wait
To wipe the smile right off your face
No one in your corner
You don't want to sit alone

We're off like the wind
Enough of the end let it begin
If this is what it is
I'm gonna come back around
Lovin' Hold

We did it
Take a good look around
Revel in it
This my friend is the smell of winning
Inside the fold together
We got one less thing to worry about

Gotta lovin' hold
Please me baby
I thought you were down with love

It's stinking
Wrought with disease
Shattered and beaten
But the participants wouldn't see it
From the daily bread imparted
Now they got one less thing to worry about

We're getting played
I know you know babe
We've crossed that fine line
From being stupid to plain crazy
I know you feel it
You got lovin' right?
They got a hold first thing in the morning
I see no lovin
Casino love

So you forget it
It's much too heavy a weight
If you didn't
So now we're learning to die call it living
If we close our eyes together
Then we got one less thing to worry about
Do It Wrong

I'm out to get me a little bit more
God this life is so easy
Then Columbus the rapist stepped on shore
They were there for their pleasing
We're still doing it now

Did I bust up this party
speaking so plain?
We're building up another empire
So we can tumble down again
And this is doing it right

Well I wanna do it wrong
If this is right I wanna do it wrong

Self serving purchaser
Rolls off bloated to bed
Giving little thought to the billions
That go hungry in their stead
If this is doing it right

Now what the world's poor
And indigenous have found
That they're no more than a corporate
Pawn and waste dumping ground
And we're sold this is right
Get It Together

Hey I bet you guys think you're really clever
This whole man made fairytale
Is gonna go on and on for ever
Just like selling Santa Claus

Then you lose yourself
Take two more if it helps
You and me gotta get it together

So we're throwing stones at cars as they fly by
Going around and around
They've been circling our heads for days now
And I wish they'd cut it out

Get it together, Get it together etc.

Don't think I believe the words 'cause you said so
They're bleeding us into the ground
Think we'll slip through the cracks like the water
But it's you who needs to settle down
What It Takes

It's about 2 go slow we pick the lock
And then here we go...

Watch your step sister outside the fold
Could be a slippery slope but you probably know
She gotta mad momma born in a cage
Barking on about freedom
But that's what it takes
Still god she goes on

We slide through the door fly down the hall
Man when you're making a run for it
You give it your all
Won't quit if we shiver, crawl till we can't
There's no way we're going back to where we began
So of course we go on

Mama said: don't let it go to your head

On the loose we're all that we have
We're gonna run 'til we don't know no one else
Cross the end of the line that they've drawn
Throw our hands up high dance around
Smiling like a clown
But don't let it go to your head

Mad mama said she wants back in the cage
We turn and we watch as she walks away
Then one step then another until we can't
There's no time for no rest remember what they say
If you sit still it might be a bullet in your head
CooKoo Song

Soft, but cool like the dawn facing the wind
I may never be here again
Stay please don't you fall I'm begging
Feeling like you never win
Cookoo cookoo song
So step outside the door get the feeling
This kind of life will do you in

Musically influenced by Arctic Monkeys, Shovels & Rope, Kings of Leon and Band of Horses, Furious Jones has been likened to acts as diverse as Ryan Adams, Weezer and The White Stripes. Their full-length release ‘Bread & Circuses’ (2013) and debut EP ‘Bully’ (2011), received nationwide airplay on college radio, the latter charting in the top 5. Furious Jones has signed sync license agreements with Discovery Network, Viacom & NASCAR Media Group. They are producing a new EP, “Tough Love”, available in January 2017 and currently recording new songs for release in Spring 2017.

Reviews

‘… the guitar and vocal work are entirely unique with obvious rock, country and pop influences. Smith's custom electric, classical style guitar is what sets the sound apart from other bands in the alternative genre.’
- Modern Rock Review (June 2014)

‘There is not a weak song in this entire catalogue period! The musicianship is 1st rate, the songs are short and sweet musical experiences and Smith is a master at satirical humor through music.’
- Cyrus Rhodes “Indie Music Digest” (July 2014)
