Verse: There’s a wily lady That you need to know You’ll get by like a bird and flower Or a bird and a stone Ooh babe, she makes the sunshine crawl Little Sherry Cuoco She’s the wakin’ hour In the darkest of nights Ooh ooh she’s a tilted tower That lets you dream new heights Ooh babe, you can lean on her till you fall Little Sherry Cuoco Chorus: Wooo! Alright now, come on She’s s-stutterin, she’s a dream She’s s-stutterin, she’s a queen She’s s-stutterin, she’s a dream N-n-no, no, n-n-no, no, no Verse: You can never call her baby Cuz you ain’t her man She’ll leave you all alone and crazy (but) She won’t release your hand Ooh babe, there’s a crack in you when she’s gone Little Sherry Cuoco Chorus: Wooo! Alright now, come on She’s s-stutterin, she’s a dream She’s s-stutterin, she’s a queen She’s s-stutterin, she’s a dream N-n-no, no, n-n-no, no, no Bridge: And when she calls Boy you get up and go Chorus: Wooo! Alright now, come on She’s s-stutterin, she’s a dream She’s s-stutterin, she’s a queen She’s s-stutterin, she’s a dream N-n-no, no, n-n-no, no, no

Verse: Ooh baby does he got what you want When your head gets nasty, does he give you it all Your pressure is growin like a trigger to squeeze He aint got time, but you still got needs Pre-chorus: You see his competition and you thinkin “walk on by” But you got reservations, go’n and drop those eyes Chorus: Woah oh oh woah ooh Woah oh oh woah ooh Tell me radio, where do I go? Verse: You see that guy on the stage, a parade He’s playing bass or doubling down on the kick-drum right now He’s got a face the devil would embrace, for now He’s got you in his gaze, watch out babe Pre-chorus: He’s got a twisted halo up above his eyes And a tongue that’s redder than a satellite Chorus: Woah oh oh woah ooh Woah oh oh woah ooh Tell me radio, where do I go? Right here Break: You’ve got them eyes I like Those things could light up the sky But two more times won’t bite A shock of morning light Chorus: Woah oh oh woah ooh Woah oh oh woah ooh Woah oh oh woah ooh Woah oh oh woah ooh Now now radio, don’t let her know

Verse: I’m falling on my own Holding on by two feet planted In this crowded room Pre-chorus: I’m pushing down, I’m pushing limits and I’m pushing down, pushing my limits and I’m pulling now, take me away with you I’m pushing down… Verse: I’m lookin through the waves When you held my wounded hand And leaned me to restraint Pre-chorus: I’m pushing down, you’re pushing daisies and I’m pushing down, pushing on daisies and I’m pulling now, take me away with you I’m pushing down little daisies oh… Chorus: What must I do if being away from you Causes me to lose this field of view Baby I got too much, knew a taste wouldn’t be enough And I don’t wanna lose you Verse: The moonlight in your eyes Dancing like a waterfall Ruined your disguise I crack with the divide A white light shines on my room But the darkness eats it alive Pre-chorus: I’m pushing down, you’re pushing daisies and I’m pushing down, pushing on daisies and I’m pulling now, take me away with you I’m pushing down little daisies oh… Chorus: What must I do if being away from you Causes me to lose this field of view Baby I got too much, knew a taste wouldn’t be enough And I don’t wanna lose you Pre-chorus: I’m pushing down, you’re pushing daisies and I’m pushing down, pushing on daisies and I’m pulling now, take me away with you I’m pushing down little daisies oh… Chorus: What must I do if being away from you Causes me to lose this field of view Baby I got too much, knew a taste wouldn’t be enough And I don’t wanna lose you

about

THE ELEVEN’s goal for STRIDES was simple: to create an album with tightly written songs and an energetic, immediate sound. by recording each song in single takes, the group delivers a record with bristling energy and a palpable live feel.

STRIDES is the product of a year’s worth of writing, re-writing, rehearsing, and performing. the re
sult is a tightly honed five-song collection with zero filler.
