Brand New 'Okay I Believe You, But My Tommy Gun Don't'

Brand New "Okay I Believe You, But My Tommy Gun Don't" off of the album, "Deja Entendu"

[DreamZzZ]

2025. This song brings back so many memories of my youth. No cares in the world just living life day by day. Driving around in my 4x4 out in the dunes with the best group of friends I would ever have. I'm glad I've grown up since then, but I'd never take back a single moment. Live life while you can because you never know when it will have passed you by.

I think no one will ever understand how healthy it is for me to come back to this album every once in a while. It heals me... brings me back to the good ol days.

I got this cd when it came out and I was in high school. I'm 31 and this is still one of my favorite albums

[robhanlan]

I pick this album up, listen to it all the way through, cry my eyes out then completely reset and have the happiest time of my life.
Deja Entendu is by far my favourite place to come

[Tytyshortfry]

the kinda song that makes people glad to be where they are, with whoever they're there with

[dustinhemmele]

I keep coming back to this album. After so many years it still makes me feel like I'm there again.

I'm heaven sent, don't you dare forget
I am all you've ever wanted
What all the other boys all promised
Sorry I told, I just needed you to know
I think in decimals and dollars
I am the cause to all your problems
Shelter from cold, we're never alone
Coordinate brain and mouth
Then ask me what its like to have myself so figured out
I wish I knew
I hope this song starts a craze
The kind of song that ignites the airways
The kind of song that makes people glad to be where they are
With whoever they're there with
This is war
Every line is about who I don't want to write about anymore
Hope you come down with something they can't diagnose
Don't have the cure for
Holding on to your grudge
Oh it's so hard to have someone to love
And keeping quiet is hard
'Cause you can't keep a secret if it was never was a secret to start
At least pretend you didn't want to get caught
We're concentrating on falling apart
We were contenders, now we're throwing the fight
I just want to believe
I just want to believe
I just want to believe (in us)
Oh, we're so c-c-c-c-controversial
We are entirely smooth
We admit to the truth, we are the best at what we do
And these are the words you wish you wrote down
This is the way you wish your voice sounds
Handsome and smart
Oh my tongue's the only muscle on my body that works harder than my heart
And it's all from watching TV
And from speeding up my breathing
I wouldn't stop if I could, oh it hurts to be this good
Holding on to your grudge
Oh it hurts to always have to be honest with the one that you love
Oh so let it go
We're concentrating on falling apart
We were contenders, now we're throwing the fight
I just want to believe
I just want to believe
I just want to believe
We're concentrating on falling apart
We were contenders, now we're throwing the fight
I just want to believe
I just want to believe
I just want to believe (in us)
(This is intolerable)
This is the grace only we can bestow
This is the price you pay for loss of control
This is the break in the bend
This is the closest of calls
This is the reason you're alone
This is the rise and the fall
We're concentrating on falling apart
We were contenders, now we're throwing the fight
I just want to believe
I just want to believe
I just want to believe
We're concentrating on falling apart
We were contenders, now we're throwing the fight
I just want to believe
I just want to believe
I just want to believe (in us)

This album haunts me emotionally. So connected to this day. I have 3 copies of the CD..dont ask. Gave my son the vinyl version for xmas a few years ago..he gave me the exact same gift!

[ronmacklin]

Sitting here working on my umpthinth vodka soda, remembering how this album got me through the hardest point in my life. This album still brings tears to my eyes. But ghad damn, if after all these years, it doesn’t feel like triumph, then I don’t know what does.

[masterman]

long drives, whiskey breath, and thinking about the one that got away. that will forever be what this song is to me

[meanmrmustard]

One of the best bass lines ever. Engrained in my mind.

I will forever have this album cover tattooed on my forearm. It’s well done, always reminds me how these guys shaped me and my taste in music.

Why aren't there people listening in 2019? This song, this album and this band are still awesome.
