I Certainly Hope Not

Taken from "Sandbox" 1987

"The tension was pretty tight
leave you hangin without a fight
Give it all up cause theres no living in
the world of Artic
no giving, acquitting (are you quitting)

{chorus}
I certainly hope not ohhh noooo(*3)
ohhh ohhhh

There's so many things people say
just to help give it away (but get in the way)
I won't try to figure things out
it's complicated so when doubt (I did)
I start crying
stop lying (trying)

{chorus}

Attracted to the light
Everything will be alright (Where everything with you - all right)
Attracted to the light
Everything will be alright (Where everything will be)
Attracted to the light
Everything will be alright"

A pub stomp with a killer chorus, very traditional rock sounding song from the early GBV archives that could have been recorded anywhere between the 60s and late 80s. Good song though not typical GBV fare.
