Not sure when the bad times began, try to remember and forget again Am I losing my mind or did I just leave it behind Taking all my troubles in stride one thing is true and that's that I won't hide and you can take it to the bank reputation in the tank once again Well you can keep trying to dig my grave I gotta head start already so please save your accusations, allegations and more I always even the score I gotta hole where my heart used to be and a whole lot of woman talking shit about me I gotta shake, gotta move, gotta get back into my groove Taking on the haters and trolls sometimes you just can't let things go or let 'em slide right on by or hide - its up for you to decide Well you can keep your head buried in the sand Or try taking a bite of the hand that feeds you once again- no more- I always even the Score Well you can keep trying to dig my grave I gotta head start already so please save your accusations, allegations and more I always even the score

They say there's gonna be trouble if I don't get outta town They say there's gonna be trouble if they see me around It's been a long time coming its been a long time for sure I made a pass at a woman the Sheriff had spoken for You best beat feet while the getting's good You better be on your way When the sun goes down you gotta get outta town We wanna see your taillights fade I may not be the smartest but honest as I can I'll tell you one thing she never told me you was her man

Your always looking for answers to questions nobody asked You always question the standards but can't solve simple math Your always looking for trouble baby stick your nose where it don't belong Always try and solve others problems when it's your own troubles that you can solve You say there all playing checkers you've graduated to chess you think that you got the answers and you don't need to guess Your always looking for trouble baby stick your nose where it don't belong Always try and solve others problems when it's your own troubles that you can solve How can you try and help others when you can't help yourself You like to stick to your guns and never reach out for help

Local Show 02:43
It's a Local Show which means nobody will go but we'll try to have a good time if we can The guest list spots are taken but please don't be mistaken cuz 3 are for the girlfriends and last one didn't show The lights will still go on even if no one else is there The show must go on even if the ones that do don't care For a band of your stature I'm sure it's local shows you're not after but I'd love to go sometime if it's not too late There's no drink tickets tonight but if you would like we offer free coffee, Coke, water, tea or Sprite. Load in time is 6 o clock the doors open at 8 please be a professional and please don't turn up late The sound guy is a junkie but what did you expect? We pay him with free beer all night still treat him with respect Hey man when's your next local gig? Need to see you now before you make it big my wife heard you guys on that local radio Sorry we didn't make it out- how was the gig - did you "rock the house" heard you on the Satellite, when's the next gig on a Friday night? We'll try and get a sitter and have a night out on the town! It's a local show which means nobody will go but we'll try to have a good time if we can.

Ive been running with the same old crew getting wild and getting screwed up on all the usual things time for a break chance of scenery What do you Know? It's just not my thing What do you know? It happens to bring What do you know? A feeling that there's something more What once was fun is now really a bore The same old has-beens running around, thinking their something in this town. I'll tell ya they don't do a thing for me, I'm quite content with my couch and T.V. What do you know? Think that their having a ball what do you know? But I got news for you all What do they say? Hey well it's no ones fault Sometimes life gets away from us all Ive been running with the same old crew getting wild and getting screwed up on all the usual things time for a break chance of scenery What do you know? Hey well it's not the same What do you know?Maybe its you who's changed What do you know?Well I gave it my best Don't wanna turn out like all the rest What do you know?it's just not my thing What do you know?it happens to bring What do you know?a feeling that there's something more What once was fun is now really a bore

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:

"Whether I'm in the mood for something poppy, punky, or straight-up rocking, this album always hits the spot. If you're looking for a modern-day example of what rock and roll is all about, it doesn't get much better than this." LORD RUTLEDGE- FASTER & LOUDER

"Overall, there is not a false note here, every track rocks! This album is a contender for my top ten in 2021 for sure. Highly Recommended." POWERPOPAHOLIC

"It’s simple, really. Do you like Ramones? The Flamin’ Groovies? ‘Exile On Main Street’? If you answered “yes” to all the above, then Brad Marino has the album for you." Martin Chamarette RPM ONLINE UK

"Another wildly entertaining effort for Marino. Also happens to be his best yet." NEW NOISE MAGAZINE

"Marino loves good-old-fashinoed Chuck berry rock 'n' roll and manages to mine a seemingly infinite vein of catchy pop rock from it" JIM TESTA

"If you’re a power pop fan, you can’t go wrong with Brad Marino." Paul Silver Jersey Beat Fanzine

"It's fresh, light, smart, energizing, fun and SO EXCITING!" Voix De Garage Grenoble

"From the moment the album opens, the pop-laden rock riffs fly around and do not stop until the final notes fade out of my ears" WoNo Magazine

"Raw, Melodic ditties with touches of glam and Americana for extra flavor." Michael Toland -The Big Takeover Magazine

"Looking for Trouble rivals the best of his former band. In total, this is Brad Marino's best to date and one of my favorite albums of 2021 so far" Richare Rossis Power Pop News

"Marino continues his run of infectious, upbeat rock and roll that straddles the line between roadhouse and rockabilly-with punk energy and superb song craft, Marino maintains a high standard" BLOODY RED BARON PopGeekHeaven.com
