Written by Andy Meyers in 1980

lyrics

I Can’t Be Careful Andy Meyers

Hey Honey, you look gorgeous
In your new sundress
I’ll bet she smiles a lot
flashes everything she’s got
I’m sure she cares in lots of ways
glue that adds up lots of days
I’m sure she makes me sing
adding up to everything
why not
Don’t care to differ
Happier when I’m with her

Hey Honey, you’re a peach
strung up just inside my reach
soft shoulders are easily bruised
I know you’re already lost.
Not worrying about the price
this kind of deal don’t pass by twice
giving it all I’ve got
giving it all we’ve got
why not
It makes no difference
whole world smells of her fragrance

I know I’m easily led and I
want my memories right now
but a still diamond is secret
you’re news all over town

and that’s funny well i do funny things sometimes
there’s a funny girl i’m trying to love
well i do funny things sometime
well there’s a funny girl i’m trying and

Hey honey, life’s sweet
made incomplete
you take part of me
I’ll take back what you don’t need and
If we get in each other’s way
our problems will fade
and evaporate
at an astounding rate

that’s funny well i do funny things sometimes
there’s a funny girl i’m trying to love
well i do funny things sometime
well there’s a funny girl I’m hoping loves me
I’m hoping loves me
and that’s funny
real funny
real funny

about

Dream Tower Records image

Dream Tower Records Toronto, Ontario

Vintage/current music by Toronto protopunk legends The Scenics & related projects.

“It wasn't so much that The Scenics were ahead of their time in 1977, it's more that almost everybody else didn't even know what time it was.
New York had Talking Heads, and England was blessed with XTC, but here was their equal in Toronto...”
Bob Mersereau, author "the Top 100 Canadian Albums" ... more
