  • Grenade

    Easy come, easy go
    That's just how you live
    Take take take it all, but you never give Should have known you was trouble from the first kiss Had you eyes wide open, why were they open Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash, tossed it in the trash you did To give me all your love is all I ever asked 'cause What you don't understand is

    Chorus
    I'd catch a grenade for you (yeah, yeah, yeah) Throw my hand on a blade for you (yeah, yeah, yeah) I'd jump in front of a train for you (yeah, yeah, yeah) You know I'd do anything for you (yeah, yeah, yeah) I would go through all this pain, take a bullet straight through my brain Yes I would die for you baby, but you won't do the same....no, no, no, no

    Verse 2
    Black, black, black and blue
    Beat me 'til I'm numb
    Tell the devil I said hey when you get back to where you're from Mad woman, bad woman That's just what you are Yeah you'll smile in my face, then rip the brakes out my car

    Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash, tossed it in the trash (yes you did) To give me all your love is all I ever asked 'cause What you don't understand is

    Chorus
    I'd catch a grenade for you (yeah, yeah, yeah) Throw my hand on a blade for you (yeah, yeah, yeah) I'd jump in front of a train for you (yeah, yeah, yeah) You know I'd do anything for you (yeah, yeah, yeah) I would go through all this pain, take a bullet straight through my brain Yes I would die for you baby, but you won't do the same

    Bridge
    If my body was on fire
    Ohh you'd watch me burn down in flames
    You said you loved me you're a liar
    Cause you never, ever, ever did baby
    But darlin I'd still catch a grenade for you

    Chorus
    Throw my hand on a blade for you (yeah, yeah, yeah) I'd jump in front of a train for you (yeah, yeah, yeah) You know I'd do anything for you (yeah, yeah, yeah) I would go through all this pain, take a bullet straight through my brain Yes I would die for you baby, but you won't do the same

  • Just the Way You Are

    Intro
    Ahh, Ahh, Ahh, Ahh

    Verse 1
    Oh, her eyes, her eyes make the stars look like they're not shining Her hair, her hair, falls perfectly without her trying She's so beautiful, and I tell her everyday Yea, I know, I know, when I compliment her she won't believe me And it's so, it's so sad to think that she don't see what I see But every time she asks me, do I look okay, I say

    Chorus
    When I see your face, there is not a thing that I would change Cause you're amazing, just the way you are And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for awhile Cause girl you're amazing, just the way you are, hey

    Verse 2
    Her lips, her lips I could kiss them all day if she'd let me Her laugh, her laugh she hates but I think it's so sexy She's so beautiful, and I tell her everyday Oh, you know, you know, you know I'd never ask you to change If perfect's what you're searching for then just stay the same So don't even bother asking if you look okay, you know I'll say

    Chorus
    When I see your face, there is not a thing that I would change Cause you're amazing, just the way you are And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for awhile Cause girl you're amazing, just the way you are

    Breakdown
    The way you are, the way you are
    Girl you're amazing, just the way you are When I see your face there's not a thing I would change Cause you're amazing just the way you are And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for awhile Cause girl you're amazing, just the way you are, yea

  • Talking to the Moon

    I know your somewhere out there, somewhere far awa
    I want you back
    My neighbors think I’m crazy, but they don’t understand
    You’re all I have

    At night when the stars light up my room
    I sit by myself

    Chorus
    Talking to the moon
    Trying to get to you
    And hopes you’re on the other side
    Talking to me too
    Oh am I a fool who sits alone talking to the moon

    I’m feeling like I’m famous, the talk of the town
    They say I’ve gone mad, I’ve gone mad
    But they don’t know what I know, cause when the sun goes down
    Someone’s talking back, yeah their talking back

    At night when the stars light up my room
    I sit by myself

    Chorus
    Talking to the moon
    Trying to get to you
    And hopes you’re on the other side
    Talking to me too
    Oh am I a fool who sits alone talking to the moon

    Ahh do you ever hear me calling

    Chorus
    Talking to the moon
    Trying to get to you
    And hopes you’re on the other side
    Talking to me too
    Oh am I a fool who sits alone talking to the moon

    I know you’re somewhere out there, somewhere far away

  • Liquor Store Blues (ft. Damian Marley)

    Standing at this liquor store
    Whiskey coming through my pores
    Feeling like I run this whole block

    Lotto tickets, cheap beer, that's why you can catch me here Tryna scratch my way to the top Cause my job's got me going nowhere So I ain't got a thing to lose Take me to a place where I don't care This is me and my liquor store blues

    Chorus
    I take one shot for my pain
    One drag for my sorrow
    Get messed up today
    I'll be okay tomorrow
    (Repeat)

    Verse:
    Me and my guitar tonight
    Singing to the city lights
    Tryna live on more than what I got
    Cuz 68 cents just ain't gonna pay the rent So I'll be out until they call the cops Cuz my job's got me goin nowhere So I ain't got a thing to lose Take me to a place where I don't care This is me and my liquor store blues

    Chorus
    I take one shot for my pain
    One drag for my sorrow
    Get messed up today
    I'll be okay tomorrow
    (Repeat)

    Damian Marley
    Here comes Junior Gong
    I'm flying high like superman
    And thinking that I run the whole block
    I don't if it's just because
    Pinapple kush between my jaws
    Has got me feeling like I'm on top
    Feeling like I woulda stand up to the cops And stand up to da bigger heads because de whole a dem a saps All de talk dem a talk and dem (fly make no drop) Nuff ghetto youth cannot escape the trap

    (instrumental break)

    Chorus
    Give me this one shot for my pain
    One drag for my sorrow
    Get messed up today
    I'll be okay tomorrow
    (Repeat)

My 10 month old daughter, Stella, will stop playing with her toys in the a.m, while watching vh1, whenever she hears 'Just the way you are'. She smiles and watches it from beginning to end, she is mesmerized, and does the same if it's not on t.v but being sung to her. Thanks for being her first favorite artist, she loves you Bruno Mars!

Bruno...there is White pudding" the black without the blood...deliciously spicy if cooked right :-) I hope I did not bring up any bad memories of London's breakfast... you need to eat it Guyanese style...anyway, words cannot explain how I feel about your talent...so I decided to ramble about something else...Bruno, please don't get cuaght up in the "life" too much. Stay close to your family to stay grounded...don't break my heart again (your recent allegations...). I would still "catch a Grenade for ya" :-)

Every time i hear Just the way you are it remind me of what has been. And good memiores.

Frogluver's picture

When I first heard "Just the Way you Are" it struck a chord in my heart and I had to sing along. It always makes me think of that special someone we all love. But I figured this was it usually each artist has about one really famous and good song and that's it. But I was immensely surprised and happy when I heard some of the other songs in doo-wops and hooligans, he has done it again and I greatly recommend all of Bruno Mars' songs to any lover of the music, for he is now my favorite artist.

i LOVE how you literally write how you feel, you don't cover it up with metaphors and cheesy lines. a good example of that is the lazy song:) its so carefree and fun and it always puts me in a good mood!

Count On Me and Runaway Baby are the best songs in my opinion :D All your songs are amazing though, my brother listens to Just The Way You Are on a loop! Me and my best guy friend think you're awesome and by far THE best singer :D
