Listen up was written by Steph in July 1997. This is a song that we played live almost at every show until we disbanded in 2010. Nicko, the studio engineer, did the back up vocals on this one.
lyrics
It ain't my voice,
That you heard on the radio
Not gonna waste my time,
I'm gonna leave it up to you
And if i draw the line
You'll be there sittin' all alone
Pick it up now you just have to go,
Chasing the girls you hardly know?
What about the times you like to share what About that time?
It's my own choice,
If i'm not happy with your lies
You're begging me to change
We fight & argue all the time
Now it's your turn to listen up;
And you better listen up
So listen up and Shut your fuckin' mouth...
Never say a fuckin' word, listen to me
Shut the fuck for a minute, let me say a word
