Half Right Lyrics
Well you shouldn't talk to yourself
While I picture somebody else
Someone who looks like
What I look like
Would you say that
The one of your dreams
Got in you and ripped out the seams
That's what I'd say
He was a sucker for your double dose
Mother fucker
Turned white as a ghost
Don't you say hi
With your broken sink for a face
In a head that just takes up space
He's not half right
It's already half past
And it won't last
I was sticking up for my friend
When theres nothing much to defend
It's a lost fight
Cause when I talk to you on the phone
Well it's just like being alone
It's not half right
It's not half right
While I picture somebody else
Someone who looks like
What I look like
Would you say that
The one of your dreams
Got in you and ripped out the seams
That's what I'd say
He was a sucker for your double dose
Mother fucker
Turned white as a ghost
Don't you say hi
With your broken sink for a face
In a head that just takes up space
He's not half right
And it won't last
I was sticking up for my friend
When theres nothing much to defend
It's a lost fight
Cause when I talk to you on the phone
Well it's just like being alone
It's not half right
It's not half right

the original is by heatmiser - not half right. on their album futures, JEW made a reference to a heatmiser song with KILL 'like your favourite heatmiser song goes, it's just like being alone'. and what do you know, on their latest EP they did a cover of the heatmiser song they were referring to. I wouldn't say this is an awful heatmiser cover, coz if you listen to both songs carefully, they're pretty much the same, the only subtle difference is the vocals. But hey if you don't like JEW then fair enough, but i think they did a pretty good cover of that song.
"Like your favourite Heatmiser song goes, it's just like being alone"
Pretty clever.
Ive never heard the original by E. Smith... i might have a listen, but as for this version i always thought Jim sang "doctor" at the beginning but i could be wrong- this is an amazing song though by the band i think, its cool to hear Jim sing *ucker for once lol

I wanna download the orignal...but is it called half right, or diff title?
I'd rather hear this version that the Heatmiser one, cause that one is kinda boring. Great cover by JEW.
I love this version!! i like heatmiser's too but I really love JEW sooo maybe you have to love them to appreciate this
but what is it ABOUT - drugs? "double dose"?
knowing early elliott, this is most likely about his stepdad.
They're pretty much the same song, so I don't see what's wrong with this version. And vandyfan22, ikr (about Jim cussing)
