Ada Shymore and The Boogie Men - What Ya Gonna Do When It Happens?

Ada Shymore and The Boogie Men continue to surprise. This is their second collaboration with members of The Noir Players and their arranger Stewart Bitsher, and it continues to be a great combination. Ada and her band are getting better and better at contributing more of their ideas into the songs they perform. They do have some decent lyricists in the group, and with the help from The Noir Players and the leader, the music is getting more diversified and interesting. Scuttlebutt has it that they're all working together on yet other projects, and it'll be interesting to hear where they go next! Ada continues to grow as a soloist. The growth from her first song to the current one is very noticeable and encouraging. We at Big And Tall Records are fortunate and proud to have found so many talented artists!  

What ya gonna do when it happens? 

What are you gonna do then? 

When yer all alone, and I don't phone 

What the hell are you gonna do then? 

 

Took a long time, but it happened 

My mind and my heart got in sync 

You treat me like garbage, then you laugh 

Told you I was done, you didn't blink 

 

What ya gonna do when it happens? 

What are you gonna do then? 

When yer all alone, and I don't phone 

What the hell are you gonna do then? 

 

 I know you didn't cheat. Why would you? 

Nobody else would tolerate it! 

You found someone just like you wanted 

Tired of living in an armpit! 

 

What ya gonna do when it happens? 

What are you gonna do then? 

When yer all alone, and I don't phone 

What the hell are you gonna do then? 

 

Stayed because I thought there was no one 

Who would want me , and then because 

You would be better than loneliness 

I can't explain how wrong I was! 

 

What ya gonna do when it happens? 

What are you gonna do then? 

When yer all alone, and I don't phone 

What the hell are you gonna do then? 

 

You talked to me so high and mighty 

Like you were so much better than I 

I'm over that, what's more over you! 

I'm leaving you, this filthy pig sty 

 

What ya gonna do when it happens? 

What are you gonna do then? 

When yer all alone, and I don't phone 

What the hell are you gonna do then? 

 

I'm scared, I'm frightened nearly to death

 But it's better than being with you 

How will I make my way, I don't know 

But I'm glad that it's finally through! 

 

 What ya gonna do cuz it's happened! 

What are you gonna do now!? 

When yer all alone, and I won't phone 

Your heart's like stone, I'm better off alone! 

What the hell are you gonna do now!
