Who Would've Thought Lyrics
Who would've thought that dreams come true
Who would've thought i'd end up with you
Who would've thought what they said was true
But it was and you are light and darkness coming through
Sihlouettes of palm trees backing up against the sky
Echo park sunset, an ambulance drives by Someone went down,
and I wonder who
Someones fall coudda.... been anybody I know
So I drank like a fish till i crawl like a rat
In the city of shit i ended up on my back.
But I can't believe you're with me after dark
So let it come together in echo park
Who would've thought that dreams come true
Who would've thought i'd end up with you
Who would've thought what they said was true
But it was and you are light and darkness coming through
A red flag and your body wins Or a snake bite, gotta start again
So i'm fucked up and watching TV all day
I don't wanna see what ricky lake's gotta say
And it hits me when i'm alone, i'm an angry man
I start singing to myself i got dealt a shitty hand
With all these feelings my heart could explode
So is it not fear, no not at all So I said
Who would've thought that dreams come true
Who would've thought i'd end up with you
Who would've thought what they said was true
But it was and you are light and darkness coming through
Na na na......
Who would've thought that dreams come true
Who would've thought i'd end up with you
Who would've thought what they said was true
But it was and you are light and darkness coming through
Who would've thought i'd end up with you
Who would've thought what they said was true
But it was and you are light and darkness coming through
Echo park sunset, an ambulance drives by Someone went down,
and I wonder who
Someones fall coudda.... been anybody I know
So I drank like a fish till i crawl like a rat
In the city of shit i ended up on my back.
But I can't believe you're with me after dark
So let it come together in echo park
Who would've thought i'd end up with you
Who would've thought what they said was true
But it was and you are light and darkness coming through
So i'm fucked up and watching TV all day
I don't wanna see what ricky lake's gotta say
And it hits me when i'm alone, i'm an angry man
I start singing to myself i got dealt a shitty hand
With all these feelings my heart could explode
So is it not fear, no not at all So I said
Who would've thought i'd end up with you
Who would've thought what they said was true
But it was and you are light and darkness coming through
Who would've thought i'd end up with you
Who would've thought what they said was true
But it was and you are light and darkness coming through

i'm gonna learn the bass part then sing it to my girlfriend
You guys are all wrong. He's singing about stuff that happened when Op Ivy broke up...ten years before the album. It's about God. Most of the entire "Life Won't Wait" album was about God. Hence the "light in darkness coming through". Tim hates organized religion, but he talks about God like they're best friends...The Queers made fun of him for it in their song "Rancid Motherfucker", also released in 1998. Other songs on the album that support this theme include "The Wolf", "Bloodclot", and "Turntable". Never mind that the intro track would be just full of crap if all they were going to sing about was shitty love songs and the same old stuff we hate pop music for being. If this song's about a girl, then it doesn't make any sense!
This shows the sweet side of rancid, even hardcore punks have sappy little feelings like this. ANd yet again they say fuck
chris, who would have thought i would have spent 8 months with you. the best ever. and who would have thought it would end, and i cant let go. i miss you.
sk8tachica, thats touching, i'm lost though
i get yah sk8achica.. my boyfriend dedicated this song to me.. we have a confusind relationship.. and it is so about us.. i love this song
This song was dedicated to my ex, and that's the joke, it's my ex. idk, I like the song, it reminds me of myself and the way I used to go and get pissed after every fight!!! lol anyways, Good song!
I will say......again! Rancid is the greatest band.... I like thier lyrics so much because I can totally relate. I feel ya -sk8achica- anyways....peace
This was written about Brody, Tims wife.
"Who would've thought that dreams come true Who would've thought i'd end up with you Who would've thought what they said was true But it was and you are light and darkness coming through "
Word was going around a girl(she was 17 when they got married BTW)wanted to Meet Tim and somehow at a show she got backstage and They ended up staying together(She was a hardcore druggie at this time, in 1997) But, its all changed now, they both have killer bands that rock.
Rancid/Distillers tour 2003 be on the lookout.
i doubt that rancid/distillers tour will happen now, brody divorced tim. that sucks hard.
check out how tim feels about the whole thing by picking up "indestructible" on july 8th or whenever it's slated to come out.
