To celebrate Adam Levine’s appearance on the Halloween 2017 edition of the Howard Stern Show, GWAR performed a cover of the Maroon 5 hit “Harder To Breathe” on the Wrap-Up Show.
Audio of the first verse and chorus would later be released on the official Howard Stern Show Soundcloud.
[Verse 1]
How dare you say that my behavior's unacceptable
So condescending, unnecessarily critical
Have the tendency of getting very physical
So watch your step cause if I do, you'll need a miracle
Drain me dry and make me wonder why I'm even here
The double vision I was seeing is finally clear
You want to stay but you know very well I want you gone
[Gibberish]
[Chorus]
When it gets cold outside and you've got nobody to love
Understand what I mean when I say
There's no way we're gonna give up
Like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
[Verse 2]
What you're doing is screwing things up inside my head
You should know better, never listened to a word I said
Clutching your pillow and writhing in a naked sweat
Hoping someday somebody will do you like I did
[Chorus]
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
There's no way we're gonna give up
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
I think that I've got irritable bowel syndrome
Ugh, I gotta pee!
[Bridge]
Does it kill, does it burn
Is it painful to learn
It's me that has the control
Does it thrill, does it sting
When you feel what I bring
And you wish that you had me to hold
[Chorus]
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
There's no way we're gonna give up
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams, that's me!
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to believe we're doing this fucking song
Harder To Breathe was written by Adam Levine & Jesse Carmichael.
GWAR released Harder To Breathe on Tue Oct 31 2017.
