  • And some man live his life for profits alone
    That very same man he lives his life all alone
    On any road to life, yes, it goes up and down
    Doesn't really matter, as long as the music goes on

    Well, Mr. Collie Man, why don't you come 'round no more?
    Well, Mr. Collie Collie Man, don't you hear me troubled call?
    Well, Mr. Collie Man, hope you didn't come to disturb
    You best not be come 'round here unless you've got me sensi herb

    I never needed any reason for me to say
    Through all those troubled times, yes, me love you anyway
    On any roughest path, you know the rocky, rocky road
    You know that life and love is a heavy, heavy load

    Well, Mr. Collie Man, why don't you come 'round no more?
    Well, Mr. Collie Collie Man, don't you hear me troubled call?
    Well, Mr. Collie Man, hope you didn't come to disturb
    You best not be come 'round here unless you've got me sensi herb
    You best not be come 'round here unless you've got me sensi herb Writer/s: Kyle Alexander McDonald, Miles Doughty

  • Garrett from Pittsburgh, PaI found this song too by accident, never haerd of these guys before but I loved their sound.
  • Jessica from Cherry Hill, NjI think the song that Meaghan is referring to is Closer to the Sun great tune
  • Emily from Oklahoma City, OkSlightly Stoopid is the equivalent of KMK except no rap and it's ten times better.
  • Meaghan from Breckenridge, CoSlightly Stoopid's a sweet band. Just wondering if anyone might know . . . what song does Slightly Stoopid sample on their song "everything you need"? I remember hearing the melody on a sweet surf video (i swear it wasn't them) that didn't belong to me so i didn't get a chance to find out.
