about
JAYA is releasing her third single entitled “Not Gonna Happen” off of her forthcoming album Everybody’s Getting Married. Departing from the guitar driven arrangements of her previous releases, JAYA explores entirely new territory in this song with off-beat acoustic piano samples and electronic layering.
This quirky instrumentation possesses “Not Gonna Happen” with an uneasiness and sparsity, perfectly reflecting the theme of the song
lyrics
NOT GONNA HAPPEN LYRICS
You can’t keep waiting,
You can’t keep waiting for lighting to strike
You only see that sort thing on the news
You can’t keep wishing,
You can’t keep wishing on shooting stars
They’re too few and far between babe
Chorus:
It’s not gonna happen,
It’s not gonna happen anytime soon
It’s not gonna happen,
It’s not gonna happen anytime soon
I learn the hard way
I learn the hard way babe
I know a thing or two about the hustle
Life’s a bitch
Time’s a bit too slow
Too really do anything of importance
Chorus:
Let’s build a house for two
Let’s build a house for two
Let’s build a house for two
And call it a day
