Lyrics

'Green Light' - words and music by Mark S. Ludes (MSL) ©

V.1
Well, I'm getting mixed signals coming my way,
You're saying things that you never say.
I don't know just what to believe,
It's like you got something up your sleeve.
V.2
You tell me this and then you tell me that,
But then you go and do things just to make me mad.
You're playin' me for some kind of fool,
I'm feeling like I'm back in school.

Chorus:
You give me a green light,
You got me thinking I can go, go, go!
Then you hit me with a red light,
And all I hear from you is no, no, no!

You need to give me just a straight line,
One I can follow and know where to go.
All I ask is that you make up your mind,
Say what you mean so that I know... know... know!

V.3
No I don't like it. I know you don't care,
But everything about it seems so unfair.
You're having your fun at my expense,
What you're doing to me, it makes no sense.
V.4
Just keep it up and I won't last long.
You gotta know that it's just plain wrong.
If it doesn't really matter and you just don't care,
When you take a look around, I won't be there.

Chorus:
You're giving me a green light,
You got me thinking I can go, go, go!
Then you hit me with a red light,
And all I hear from you is no, no, no!

You need to give me just a straight line,
One I can follow and know where to go.
All I ask is that you make up your mind,
Say what you mean so that I know... know... know!

Good movement to this retro rock sound, it has cool potential but I'd like to hear it remixed, and maybe with another more "hip" younger vocal, but the guts of this is quite cool. I like it!

When I first heard the music before the vocals, it reminded me of Van Halen. When the vocals kicked in and I got the feel of the song, it reminded me of the Ramones. This is a good catchy rock song with nice hooks. Well produced and performed throughout.
