Soundcheckin'

from Lessons Learned - EP by Jelly Bread

lyrics

Soundcheckin' tryin' to make sure it's right
Soundcheckin' so we have some good nights
Soundcheckin' so we won't be surprised
Soundcheckin' tryin' to catch the vibe.

Well I been thinking on how it all began
And I swear I'll never do it that way again
Rushing in, not scopin' it out
Goin' straight to the stage without hearin' how it sounds

See I was blinded by the look and the smell
I fell for ya before I could tell
That you'd be crackin', squealin', hurtin' my ears
And off my life you know, you've taken some years

That's why you gotta check it all out
(Check it all out, check it all out)
Don't think for a minute that it's all worked out
(All worked out, all worked out)
Well you know you gotta
Sound soundcheckin' whoah sound, sound check it y'all

Soundcheckin' tryin' to make sure it's right
Soundcheckin' so we have some good nights
Soundcheckin' so we won't be surprised
Soundcheckin' tryin' to catch the vibe.

Now I'll admit I thought that we'd have a ball
Cuz you had all the latest gear, put together so well and all
But it goes to show no matter how much you spend
If it ain't right on the inside theres no way you can win
(Take it serious)
Take this serious cuz I'm talkin' to you
(Don't ever rush)
Don't ever rush in to nothing that you ain't got to
(Soundheckin')
See soundcheckin' is a metaphoric phrase
For you to check out your situation
Don't get played

That's why you gotta check it all out
(Check it all out, check it all out)
Don't think for a minute that it's all worked out
(All worked out, all worked out)
Well you know you gotta
Sound soundcheckin' whoah sound, sound check it come on

Soundcheckin' tryin' to make sure its right
Soundcheckin' so we have some good nights
Soundcheckin' so we won't be surprised
Soundcheckin' tryin' to catch the vibe.

That's why you gotta check it all out
(Check it all out, check it all out)
Don't think for a minute that it's all worked out
(All worked out, all worked out)
Well you know you gotta
Said you know you gotta
Well you know you gotta
That's why you gotta check it all out
(Check it all out, check it all out)
Don't think for a minute that it's all worked out
(All worked out, all worked out)
Well you know you gotta
Sound soundcheckin' whoah sound, sound check it now
