The Others: Dragonette- I get around


Originating in Toronto, Canada, Dragonette was formed when Lilith Fair-esque singer/songwriter Martina Sorbara met future husband Dan Kurtz, developing a relationship that served as the basis
for their song "Competition," about the tribulations of being the girl that a man fools around with on the side. They released a self-titled EP in late 2006, leading the blog Popjustice to name them as the
top act to watch in 2007. 2007 came... and went. Though Dragonette enjoyed massive amounts of critical, Internet, and underground acclaim, their gritty electrorock sound failed to ignite the public as
their first album, "Galore," peaked at #80 in Canada and failed to chart in the UK. "I Get Around" was their first single, a Top 60 'hit' in Canada, as well as breaking the UK top 100.




Lyrics:
9 AM in your bedroom
The radio alarm clock is set for soon
I know your friends and you know mine too
You don't tell on me, I won't tell on you
I get around

Seconds to your elevator from the station
How can I resist that kind of invitation
Second floor and I'm in trouble
Gotta get me back down to street level
I get around

Here I come when I better go
I say yes when I ought to say no
Here I come when I better go
I say yes when I ought to say no

Quietly slide away off the mattress
Find my clothing on the bed post
So I tiptoe out of this mess
As I slip back into last night's dress
I get around

Put a little lipstick back on my face
Blow a little kiss to you from the doorway
Walk the hall right past the staircase
Take the elevator back down out of this place
I get around

Here I come when I better go
I say yes when I ought to say no
Here I come when I better go
I say yes when I ought to say no
I say yes when I ought to say no
I say yes when I ought to say no
I say yes
I say yes
I say yes
I say yes
I say yes
Say yes
Say ya

Here I come when I better go
I say yes when I ought to say no
Here I come when I better go
I say yes when I ought to say no
Here I come when I better go
I say yes when I ought to say no
Here I come when I better go
I say yes when I ought to say no
Her I come whne I better go
I say yes when I ought to say no
