Staplegunned Lyrics
It was in the lobby when I set my sights on you
Shoulda kissed you in the elevator,
but I was too scared to
It was in the morning when I made up my mind
I want you staple-gunned right to my side
all of the time, woah
Do I have to spell it our to you
or scream it in your face?
Oh, the chemistry between us could destroy this place
Do I have to spell it out for you
or whisper in your ear?
Oh, just stop right there
I think that we've got something here
We were all alone when I finally made a pass at you
It didn't work, and no it never does,
but you know how I do
We were on the phone when I made up my mind
I want you staple-gunned right to my side
all of the time, woah
Do I have to spell it our to you
or scream it in your face?
Oh, the chemistry between us could destroy this place
Do I have to spell it out for you
or whisper in your ear?
Oh, just stop right there
I think that we've got something here
Do I have to spell it our to you
or scream it in your face?
Oh, the chemistry between us could destroy this place
Do I have to spell it out for you
or whisper in your ear?
Oh, just stop right there
I think that we've got something here
Shoulda kissed you in the elevator,
but I was too scared to
It was in the morning when I made up my mind
I want you staple-gunned right to my side
all of the time, woah
or scream it in your face?
Oh, the chemistry between us could destroy this place
Do I have to spell it out for you
or whisper in your ear?
Oh, just stop right there
I think that we've got something here
It didn't work, and no it never does,
but you know how I do
We were on the phone when I made up my mind
I want you staple-gunned right to my side
all of the time, woah
or scream it in your face?
Oh, the chemistry between us could destroy this place
Do I have to spell it out for you
or whisper in your ear?
Oh, just stop right there
I think that we've got something here
or scream it in your face?
Oh, the chemistry between us could destroy this place
Do I have to spell it out for you
or whisper in your ear?
Oh, just stop right there
I think that we've got something here

This is the only band in the entire planet, galaxy, world, universe, etc that I have or will ever get a tattoo for. I've heard it a million times, why get a band tattooed on you? what if they break up? Hahaha dillgaf? they saved me a thousand times and then some.
Anyway, this song wasn't intended to be an intense love song. Originally, they wanted to show people that sometimes chemistry isn't always so..safe. People didn't understand the meaning and began to turn into what it's not but then again songs are interpreted as different things to different people. But I just want to let anyone who's listening know what it really means.
Being stappleguned to someone's side ALL of the time, hurts, it suffocates you. Attraction can be explosive in the worst of ways. He's just saying that sometimes it burns so much that it can damage people. "The chemistry between us could DESTROY this place" he doesn't mean destroy with little butterflies and ladybugs, no, no he means destroy as in, a bomb, something that is simply negative. The music video they made is the meaning of this song. They show us abusive relationships, screaming, fighting, tears, ocd, depression, real life situations.
Sometimes wanting a person so badly can turn into something destructive. Maybe they're talking from experience, which I would believe because most if not all their songs are pure experience.
And that's what makes Nick's words so strong, the emotion behind it. He's a masterpiece<3
Do I have to spell it out? C'mon peoples. He wants her...to be his, obviously.
jesus...never seen a quadruple post b4
hahah same.. must be new. this song is clearly easy to comprihend and well no words say how absolutly amazing the spill canvas is.
lol @ quadruples post but anyway this song is awesome, the spill canvas is an awesome band.
This is my favorite song on the new cd so far.
TSC = The Greatest Ever. Period.
When I first heard it, I noticed imideatly how different in tempo it was than any other TSC songs I ever heard. To be honest, I wasn't so sure if I was gonna like the change.
But I love it. They way he writes hasn't change at all with the new album. Its still so, I don't even know. He's so good with words. I'ts one of my favorites on One Fell Swoop
"Do I have to spell it our to you or scream it in your face? Oh, the chemistry between us could destroy this place" bloody brilliant.
i cant believe not more people have commented on this song. Other than self-conclusion this is by far the best song on their new cd.
the chemistry between us could destroy this place
thats the shit right there, dang.
