Hello Kelly Lyrics!

These are the lyrics to my favourite Hello Kelly lyrics! Look them up, listen to them, they are fabulous!



Paperbag Princess
by Hello Kelly


Hey Elizabeth, don't raise the drawbridge darling.
I've been waiting a long time for someone like you.
For someone like you.
You hide behind your insecurities.
The paper bag around your waist
And the mud upon your face puts them above you.
But I still love you.

Cause I'm standing in my tin foil armour,
My dollar store broad sword is by your side.
And did Ronald break your heart when he called you ugly?
And can I hold you arm?


Hey Elizabeth I'm just a peasant school boy.
But I've been waiting a long time to hold your hand,
Or something like that.
I'm not a soldier and I'm not a king,
But I can play a mean guitar
And you can talk to me about almost anything,
Without worrying.

Cause I'm standing in my tin foil armour,
My dollar store broad sword is by your side.
And did Roland break your heart when he called you ugly?
And can I hold you arm?


Hey Elizabeth don't think that I am ok
Cause I've got problems just like you, but I am fine.
Cause you are mine.
If we put our faith into God above,
Then He will protect us both, and He'll keep us strong
As long as we have love.
And we've got love.

Favourite Arcade
by Hello Kelly

could you look into my eyes
and tell me that you enjoyed
everytime we played your game
you always brought me down the same old way
when i come up to this place
its your favourite arcade
i'm drowning in your skin
but i just want out of it oh (2x)

i never bargained for this pain im feeling now
this fever pierces every part of me somehow
my tongue is twisted
and i can't look down no matter how hard i try
well i walked away
from my favourite charade
i thought i loved you
yesterday you were just in my head
i guess you thought that i would cave
hey girl, i guess your still the same
how do you like me now
now that i'm on my way
it's always the same game you play oh
i never bargained for this pain im feeling now
this fever pierces every part of me somehow
my tongue is twisted
and i can't look down no matter how hard i try
i know that it don't matter
how hard i try
i know that it don't matter
how hard i try
how can i hate you when you buy me flowers?
how can i trust you when they always die?
i never bargained for this pain im feeling now
this fever pierces every part of me somehow
my tongue is twisted
and i can't look down no matter how hard i try
i know that it don't matter
how hard i try
i know that it don't matter
how hard i try

Eulogy
Hello Kelly

The problem with your smile
Is that its gone
And all your laughter
Will have to wait till after
And the problem with your clothes
Is that their off
They're folded nicely
And packed up tightly
Cuz your gone

Time is burning
I am learning
Just cuz your gone
Doesn't mean your gone
Cuz your name was written down
I never thought that I'd see you bleed
But your skin is soo cold now
I wish that you'd
Stop pretending to sleep
And our tree house
And our Saturdays are gone
Now that this is over
I guess its my turn to be strong
Well I want this I need this I'm helpless
Without this
And time is burning
I am learning
Just cuz your gone
Doesn't mean your gone
Cuz your name was written down
And though I walk these halls alone
Just cuz your gone
Doesn't mean your gone
Cuz your name was written down
(As I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
And if I die before I wake
I pray the lord my soul to take)
And the problem with your eyes
Is that they still shine
Time is burning
I am learning
Just cuz your gone
Doesn't mean your gone
Cuz your name was written down
And though I walk these halls alone
Its just when your gone
I feel your gone
Cuz your name was written down

New Favourite Band

Hello Kelly is the rock you've always longed for.It's the rock that takes other music and adds what you always thought it needed.

It's the grittiest alternative and the hardest rock and the catchiest pop - with melodies that drill into your mind and synth that drills into your throat. It's the kind of honest story-telling that makes your friends wonder what you're smiling about. It's the kind of show that makes you rock out like nobody's business and has enough class to make your grandmother join the mosh pit.

Hello Kelly is five young men who, after doing time in their own musical endeavours, decided to unite and give birth to something truly original and innovative. Frontman/songwriter Francois Goudreault Jr. says this about their goal: "I remember when rock and roll was something that people talked about. I remember my parents filling my ears with Van Halen, The Scorpions, and Triumph - when conversations around the barbeque were about an artist's latest guitar effect, not an artist's latest clothing line. I want people to remember Hello Kelly like that."

So why Kelly? Kelly is the poster girl for every typical teenage anthem. Front-row at a punk show, or hard-rocking in the hallway walking, Kelly is listening to rock and roll and appreciating every moment of it. She has got her tastes and her opinions, but she has also got her insecurities. The world pushes Kelly around; putting words in her mouth and thoughts in her head. There is a band who wants Kelly to wake up and make her own decisions, build her own dreams and define her own beliefs. Wake up and face the world Kelly, give rock and roll a new name.

Coming onto the scene as a brand-spanking new band isn't always easy, but this is a challenge that Hello Kelly meets with clenched fists.

In Spring of 2004, Francois worked with jamie k... (Thousand Foot Krutch) to produce Hello Kelly's debut EP: Modern Day Nostalgia. "I think everybody has moments when they wish they could be in their backyard playing with army men and skipping ropes - because those moments were never fake or constructed, like so much of life is today. Everybody's always going to have good memories from their childhood, and that's what we're trying to trigger with this project."

Hello Kelly is rock for the good times and the bad times. "There's a strong spiritual element to our music because we try to let our own beliefs infiltrate the art; that's the best way to make it unique and personal. It's not about promoting a religion or telling people what to believe - it's about putting our experiences out there and letting the art speak for itself. Hopefully that makes people move: at the rock show and in their perceptions."

THE BAND:
Francois Goudreault, Jr: Vocals, Guitar
James Watts: Bass
Will Arkell: Synth, Acoustic, Back-up Vocals
Kane Bender: Drums
Mike Donais- Guitar and vocals
