Goo Goo Dollsis an alternative rock band formed in 1985 in Buffalo, New York by guitarist/vocalist John Rzeznik and bassist/vocalist Robby Takac. They are perhaps most famous for the hit "Iris", featured on the soundtrack to the 1998 film City of Angels. Currently, the band consists of John Rzeznik (guitar, vocals), Robby Takac (vocals, bass) and Mike Malinin (drums). Early in their career, the Goo Goo Dolls were frequently dismissed by critics as mere imitators of the Replacements; however, the band refined and mainstreamed their sound enough to become one of the most popular adult alternative rock bands of the latter half of the '90s, selling millions of records to audiences largely unfamiliar with their inspirations. That's no knock on the band, either -- their music simply improved in craft and accessibility as the years progressed, and radio happened to be receptive to what a decade earlier would have been considered collegiate power pop.

Bullet Proof Lyrics
Goo Goo Dolls
Do you listen to yourself
Ever live for someone else
Do you like the way you feel
Nothing hurts when no ones real
She wants to shake this scene
Yeah she wants to shake with me
Shes not looking for the holes in all the lies
I wanna bullet proof your soul
Would you like to lose control
I wont let you fall until you tell me so
What are we?
(watcha wanna be)
Everything!
That you wanna be
All I need
(right in front of me)
Ive known before
Chorus:
Would you come my way
Or did you burn out on the way
Would you come my way
Should have listened when you called my name
Yeah she wants to tear you down
And she leaves without a sound
Its like fallin backwards
Into no ones arms
Youre a bullet through my soul
But Ill never let you know
I wont let you fall until you let it go
What are we?
(watcha wanna be)
Everything!
That you wanna be
All I need
(right in front of me)
Ive known before
Would you come my way
Did you burn out on the way
Would you come my way
Should have listened
When you called my name
