ANTHEM PART 2
Everything has fallen to pieces
Earth is dying, help my Jesus
We need guidance, we've been misled
Young and hostile but not stupid

Corporate leaders, politicians
Kids can't vote, adults elect them
Laws that rule the school and workplace
Signs that caution sixteen's unsafe

We really need to see this through
We never wanted to be abused
We'll never give up, it's no use
If we're fucked up, you're to blame

Let this train wreck burn more slowly
Kids are victims in this story
Drown the youth with useless warnings
Teenage rules, they're fucked and boring

We really need to see this through
We never wanted to be abused
We'll never give up, it's no use
If we're fucked up, you're to blame

Everything has fallen to pieces
Everything has fallen to pieces
Everything has fallen to pieces
Everything has fallen to...

We really need to see this through
We never wanted to be abused
We'll never give up, it's no use
If we're fucked up, you're to blame

ONLINE SONGS
Josie
You're my source of most frustration
Forget when
I don't meet expectations

Everything you wished came true
In the end we all blamed you
Even though, as they all know
You weren't the only one, two, three, four

Why do you still keep it around?
When you know it brings me down,
I'm hating everything
And I know that you dated other guys
But I got to wonder why
You'd leave it out for me

Why am I still hanging around?
When I know it brings me down
I'm hating everything
And you are getting rides home in his car
You're making out in his front yard
I'm hating everything

Please don't remind me
Put your past behind me
It shines so bright it blinds me
I wish that this would end
And I am not fine
Last night I saw you online
Your screen name used to be mine
Why can't we just pretend?

And if we can have another day
I've got so much left to say
I'd tell you everything
And I'll laugh when I think about the past
When I see you after class
You're hating everything

Please don't remind me
Put your past behind me
It shines so bright it blinds me
I wish that this would end
And I am not fine
Last night I saw you online
Your screen name used to be mine
Why can't we just pretend?

Please don't remind me
Put your past behind me
It shines so bright it blinds me
I wish that this would end
And I am not fine
Last night I saw you online
Your screen name used to be mine
Why can't we just pretend?

And she said "nanananananananananananana I just forgot you were there, nanananananananananananana I just forgot you were, nanananananananananananana I just for got you were there,nanananananananananananana..."

Please don't remind me
Put your past behind me
It shines so bright it blinds me
I wish that this would end
And I am not fine
Last night I saw you online
Your screen name used to be mine
Why can't we just pretend?

Please don't remind me
Put your past behind me
It shines so bright it blinds me
I wish that this would end
And I am not fine
Last night I saw you online
Your screen name used to be mine
Why can't we just pretend?

And she said "nanananana..."

FIRST DATE

In the car I just can't wait
To pick you up on our very first date
Is it cool if I hold your hand?
Is it wrong if I think it's lame to dance?
Do you like my stupid hair?
Would you guess that I didn't know what to wear?
I'm just scared of what you think
You make me nervous so I really can't eat

Let's go
Don't wait
This nights almost over
Honest, let's make this night last forever.
Forver and ever
Let's make this last forever
Forever and ever. Let's make this last forever

When you smile, I melt inside
I'm not worthy for a minute of your time
I really wish it was only me and you
I'm jealous of everybody in the room
Please don't look at me with those eyes
Please don't hint that you're capable of lies
I dread the thought of our very first kiss
A target that I'm probably gonna miss

Let's go
Don't wait
This nights almost over
Honest, let's make this night last forever.
Forver and ever
Let's make this last forever
Forever and ever. Let's make this last forever

Let's go
Don't wait
This nights almost over
Honest, let's make this night last forever.
Forver and ever
Let's make this last forever
Forever and ever. Let's make this last forever
Forever and ever. Let's make this last forever
Forever and ever. Let's make this last forever

HAPPY HOLIDAYS, YOU BASTARD
It's Chrismas Eve and I've only wrapped
two fucking presents
It's Chrismas Eve and I've only wrapped
two fucking presents
And I hate, hate, hate your guts
I hate, hate, hate your guts
And I'll never talk to you again

Unless your Dad will suck me off
I'll never talk to you again
Unless your Mom will touch my cock
I'll never talk to you again
Ejaculate into a sock
I'll never talk to you again
I'll never talk to you again

It's Labour Day and my Grandpa just ate
seven fucking hotdogs
It's Labour Day and my Grandpa just ate
seven fucking hotdogs
And he shit, shit, shit his pants
He's always fuckin shittin his pants
And I'll never talk to you again

Unless your Dad will suck me off
I'll never talk to you again
Unless your Mom will touch my cock
I'll never talk to you again
Ejaculate into a sock
I'll never talk to you again
I'll never talk to you again

STORY OF A LONELY GUY

Push it out
Fake a smile
Avert disaster just in time
I need a drink
'Cause in a while, worthless answers from
friends of mine
It's dumb to ask, cool to ignore
Girls possess me but they're never mine
I made my entrance
Avoided hazards
Checked my engine I fell behind

Dada dada dada dadada I fell behind
Dada dada dada dadada I fell behind

She makes me feel like it's raining outside
And when the storms gone I'm all
torn up inside
I'm always nervous on days like this
like the prom
I get too scared to move 'cause
I'm a fucking boy

Remember when I was in
The grocery store
Now's my time
Lost the words, lost the nerve,
lost the girl, left the line
I would wish upon a star
but that star, it doesn't shine
So read my book, with a boring ending
A short story of a lonely guy

Dada Dada Dada Dadada Who feel behind
Dada Dada Dada Dadada

She makes me feel like it's raining outside
And when the storms gone I'm all
torn up inside
I'm always nervous on days like this
like the prom
I get too scared to move 'cause
I'm a fucking boy

Dada Dada Dada Dadada
Dada Dada Dada Dadada

She makes me feel like it's raining outside
And when the storms gone I'm all
torn up inside
I'm always nervous on days like this
like the prom
I get too scared to move 'cause
I'm still just a stupid, worthless boy

THE ROCK SHOW
Hanging out behind the club
on the weekend
Acting stupid, getting drunk with
my best friends
I couldn't wait for the summer and
the Warped Tour
I remember it's the first time that I saw
her...there

She's getting kicked out of school
because she's failing
I'm kind of nervous 'cause I think all her
friends hate me.
She's the one, she'll always be there
She took my hand and that made it
I swear.

I fell in love with the girl
at the rock show.
She said "what?" and I told her that I
didn't know
She's so cool, I'm gonna sneak in
through her window.
Everything's better when she's around,
I can't wait till her parents go
out of town.
I fell in love with the girl at the
rock show.

When we said we were gonna
move to Vagas
I remember the look her mother gave us
Seventeen without a purpose or direction
We don't owe anyone a fucking
explanation.

I fell in love with the girl
at the rock show.
She said "what?" and I told her that I
didn't know
She's so cool, I'm gonna sneak in
through her window.
Everything's better when she's around,
I can't wait till her parents go
out of town.
I fell in love with the girl at the
rock show.

Black and white picture of her on my wall
I waited for her call
She always kept me waiting
And if I ever got another chance
I'd still ask her to dance
Because she kept me waiting

I fell in love with the girl
at the rock show.
She said "what?" and I told her that I
didn't know
She's so cool, I'm gonna sneak in
through her window.
Everything's better when she's around,
I can't wait till her parents go
out of town.
I fell in love with the girl at the
rock show.

With the girl at the rock show
With the girl at the rock show
I'll never forget tonight.
With the girl at the rock show X6

STAY TOGETHER FOR THE KIDS

It's hard to wake up
When the shades have been pulled shut
this house is haunted
it's so pathetic
it makes no sense at all
I'm ripe with things to say
The words rot and fall away
What stupid poem, could fix this home
I'd read it every day

So here's you holiday
Hope you, enjoy it this time
You gave it all away
It was mine
So when your dead and gone
Will you remember this night
Twenty years now lost
It's not right

Their anger hurts me ears
Been running strong for seven years
Rather than fix the problems
They never slove them
It makes no sense at all
I see them everyday
We get along so why can't they?
If this is what he wants
and it's what she wants
Then why's there so much pain?

So here's you holiday
Hope you, enjoy it this time
You gave it all away
It was mine
So when your dead and gone
Will you remember this night
Twenty years now lost
It's not right

So here's you holiday
Hope you, enjoy it this time
You gave it all away
It was mine
So when your dead and gone
Will you remember this night
Twenty years now lost
It's not right

It's not right
It's not right
It's not right...

ROLLER COASTER
Breathing deeply
Walking backwards
Finding strength to call and ask her
Roller coaster, favourite ride
let me kiss you one last time

Leave me standing here
Act like I'm not around
The coast will probably never clear
Can I please go home now?

I had that dream about you again
Where I wait outside
Until you let me in
And there I stayed

Lay beside me
And listen at the wall
We'll keep on lying
Until the summer comes

I had the dream about you again
Where you drive my car
Right off a fucking cliff

And now I'm breathing deeply
Walking backwards
Finding strength to call and ask her
Roller coaster, favourite ride
let me kiss you one last time

Make me promise
That I will never tell
All I remember is
The way her bedroom smelled

I had that dream about you again
Where I wait outside
Until you let me in

And now I'm breathing deeply
Walking backwards
Finding strength to call and ask her
Roller coaster, favourite ride
let me kiss you one last time
Goodnight, goodnight.

RECKLESS ABANDON
On and on reckless abandon
Something's wrong
This is gonna shock them
Nothing to hold on to
We'll use this song
to lead you on

I learned a lot today
Not sure if I'll get laid and
Not sure if I'll fail or pass
Kissed every girl in class

Everybody would waste it all
To have a summer that they could call
A memory that's full of fun
Fucked up when it's all done

On and on reckless abandon
Something's wrong
This is gonna shock them
Nothing to hold on to
We'll use this song
to lead you on
And break the truth with more bad news
We left a scar size extra large

Sip a drink of the alcohol
End up kneeling in bathroom stalls
Eyes are red and my movements slow
Too high, got vertigo

He took a shit in the bathroom tub
And fed the dog the brownie drugs
Tried to hard to not get caught
He fucked a chick in a parking lot

On and on reckless abandon
Something's wrong
This is gonna shock them
Nothing to hold on to
We'll use this song
to lead you on
And break the truth with more bad news
We left a scar size extra large

Break a window and bust a wall
Making fun of your friend's mom
Turn the music up way to loud
Charge the pizza to the house

Everybody would waste it all
To have a summer that they could call
Memory that's full of fun
Fucked up when it's all done

On and on reckless abandon
Something's wrong
This is gonna shock them
Nothing to hold on to
We'll use this song
to lead you on
And break the truth with more bad news
We left a scar size extra large.

EVERYTIME I LOOK FOR YOU
I never found out why left him
But this answer begs that question
Too blind to see tomorrow
Too broke to beg or borrow
Young and stupid
Left wide open
Hearts are wasted
Lives are broken

One more point of contention
I need some intervention
Approached with vague intentions
Betray my short attention
Span the distance
Bridge the border
Beg forgiveness
Round the corner

Everytime I look for you the sun
goes down
And I stumble when this whole thing
runs aground
I left another message you are
never around
But everytime I look for you the sun goes
down once more
Will the last one out please shut the door?

More time apart will give you
A few more months to argue
Is this too much to live through?
It always seems to far to
Drive the point home
Send more letters
Pray Tomorrow
Ends up better

Everytime I look for you the sun
goes down
And I stumble when this whole thing
runs aground
I left another message you are
never around
But everytime I look for you the sun goes
down once more
Will the last one out please shut the door?

I never did do anything that she asked
I never let what happened stay in the past
I never did quite understand what she meant
In spite of everything
In spite of everything

Everytime I look for you the sun
goes down
And I stumble when this whole thing
runs aground
I left another message you are
never around
But everytime I look for you the sun goes
down
And I stumble when this whole thing
runs aground
I left another message you are
never around
But everytime I look for you the sun goes
down

GIVE ME ONE GOOD REASON
Mom and Dad they quite don't understand it
All the kids they laugh as if they planned it
Why do girls want to pierce their nose?
And walk around in torn panty hose, oh yeah

I like the ones who say they listen to the punk rock
I like the kids who fight against how they were brought up
They hate the trends and think it's fucked to care
Its cool when they piss people off with what they wear, Oh yeah.

So give me one good reason
Why we need to be like them
Kids will have fun and offend
They don't want to and don't fit it

Hate the jocks, the preps and the hippie-fucking scumbags
Heavy -metalers with their awful, pussy hair bags
Counting seconds until we can get away
Ditchin school almost every single day, oh yeah.

So give me one good reason
Why we need to be like them
Kids will have fun and offend
They don't want to and don't fit it

So give me one good reason
Why we need to be like them
Kids will have fun and offend
They don't want to and don't fit it

SHUT UP
Shut the fuck up she said
I'm going fucking deaf
You're always too loud
Everything's too loud

Not that all my friends left
This place is fucking dead
I wanna move out
When can we move out
This shit has got to stop
I'll run away

Get the fuck up she said
You're life is meaningless
It's going nowhere
You're going nowhere
You're just a fuckup she said
I'm live alone instead
She said you don't care
I know I don't care

I'll never ask permission from you
Fuck off I'm not listening to you
I'm not coming home
I'm never going to come back home

I got too fucked up again
And passed out on the plane
Tried to forget you
I can't forget you

No sleep on this flight
I'll think about the nights
We had to get through
How did we get through?

I'll never ask permission from you
Fuck off I'm not listening to you
I'm not coming home
I'm never going to come back home
I'll run away

I think it's time that I should leave
I think it's time that I should leave
I think it's time that I should leave
I think it's time that I should leave

I'll never ask permission from you
Fuck off I'm not listening to you
I'm not coming home
I'm never going to come back home
I'll run away

I think it's time for me to leave
I'll run away
I think it's time for me to leave
I'll run away
I think it's time for me to leave
I'll run away
I think it's time for me to leave

PLEASE TAKE ME HOME
Oh no, it happened again
She's cool, she's hot, she's my friend
I'd drive for hours, it's so
You leave me nowhere to go

She's unstoppable
Unpredictable
I'm so jaded, calculated
Wrong

Please take me home
Too late it's gone
I bet you're sad
This is the best time we ever had

Buy hope, hope it lasts
Give in, forget the past
Be strong when things fall apart
Honest, this breaks my heart

She's unstoppable
Unpredictable
I'm so jaded, calculated
Wrong

Please take me home
Too late it's gone
I bet you're sad
This is the best time we ever had

Please take me home
Too late it's gone
I bet you're sad
This is the best time we ever had
Why did we have to go date?
It's too easy to complicate
Be strong when things fall apart
Honest, this breaks my heart

Please take me home
Too late it's gone
I bet you're sad
This is the best time we ever had

Please take me home
Too late it's gone
I bet you're sad
This is the best time we ever had

BLOWJOB

MAN OVERBOARD
so sorry it's over x2
There's so much more that I wanted and
there's so much more that I needed and
time keeps moving on and on and on
Soon we'll all be gone

Let's spend some time to talk this over
your out of line and rarely sober
we can't depend on your excuses
'cause in the end it's frickin useless

You can only lean on me for so long
bring the ship about to watch a friend drown
settle on the ledge
that you don't come down
You can only lean on me for so long

I remember shots
without a chaser
and some maighty thoughts
but your a stranger
cover up the scars
put on your game face
left you in a bar
to try and save face

So sorry it's over x2
there's so much more that I wanted and
there's so much more that I needed and
time keeps moving on and on and on
soon we'll all be gone

Man on a mission

insider or information
hand in your resignation
loss of a good friend
best of intentions I found
tight lips procrastination
yeah later
see you around

Enema of the State

enema2.gif

DON'T LEAVE ME

Don't leave me all alone
just drop me off at home
I'll be fine, it's not the first
just like last time, but a little worse
(Chorus)
She said that I'm not the one she thinks about and
She said it stopped being fun, I just bring her down
I said, "Don't let your future be destroyed by my past."
She said, "Don't let my door hit you in the ass."

One more chance, I'll try this time
I'll give you yours and won't take mine
I'll listen up pretend to care
Go on ahead I'll meet you there
(Chorus)
Let's try this one more time with feeling x5
(chorus)
Don't leave me all alone
just drop me off at home and I'll be fine

ADAM'S SONG
I never thought, I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest who'd have known
I traced the cord, back to the wall
no wonder it was never plugged in at all
I took my time, I hurried up
the choice was mine, I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed to go on
but you'll be sorry when I'm gone

I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
days when I still felt alive
we couldn't wait to get outside
the world was wide, to late to try
the tour was over, we survived
I couldn't wait, till I got home
to pass the time in my room alone

I never thought, I'd die alone
another six months I'll be unknown
give all my things, to all my friends
you'll never step foot in my room again
you'll close it off, board it up
remember the time that I spilled the cup
of apple juice in the hall
please tell mom this is not her fault

I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
days when I still felt alive
we couldn't wait to get outside
the world was wide, to late to try
the tour was over we survived
I couldn't wait till I got home
to pass the time in my room alone

I never conquered, rarely came
but tommorow holds such better days
days when I can still feel alive
When I can't wait to get outside
the world is wide, the time goes by
the tour is over, I've survived
I can't wait till I get home
to pass the time in my room alone

DUMPWEED
It's understood, I said in many ways
too scared to run, I'm too scared to stay
I said I'd leave, I could never leave her
And if I did, you know I'd never cheat her

but this I ask, it's what I want to know
how would you feel, if I should choose to go
another guy, you think it'd be unlikely
another guy, you think he'd want to fight me

She's a dove, she's a fucking nightmare
Unpredictable, it was my mistake to stay here
On the go, it's way to late to play
I need a girl that I can train

I heard it once, I'm sure I heard it twice
My dad used to give me all of his advice
he would say, "you've got to turn your back and run now
come on son, you haven't got a chance now."

She's a dove, she's a fucking nightmare
Unpredictable, it was my mistake to stay here
On the go, it's way to late to play
I need a girl that I can train

She's a dove, she's a fucking nightmare
Unpredictable, it was my mistake to stay here
On the go, it's way to late to play
I need a girl that I can train

Need a girl I can train
Need a girl I can train
turn your back and run now
you haven't got a chance now

Need a girl I can train
Need a girl I can train
turn your back and run now
you haven't got a chance now

ALIENS EXIST
hey mom there's something in the backroom
hope it's not the creatures from above
you used to read me stories, as if my dreams were boring
we all know conspiracies are dumb

what if people knew that these were real (real)
I leave my closet door open all night
I know the CIA would say, "what you hear is all hearsay."
Wish someone would tell me what was right

Out all night long and
there's something very wrong
and I know it must be late
been gone since yesterday
I'm not like you guys
I'm not like you

I am still the skeptic, yes, you know me (know me)
been best friends and will be till we die (die)
I got an injection of fear from the abduction
my best friend thinks I'm just telling lies, alright

Out all night long and
there's something very wrong
and I know it must be late
been gone since yesterday
I'm not like you guys
I'm not like you

dark and scary, ordinary
explination, information
nice to know ya, paranoia
where's my mother, biofather

Out all night long and
there's something very wrong
and I know it must be late
been gone since yesterday
I'm not like you guys
twelve majestic lies

GOING AWAY TO COLLEGE
Please take me by the hand
it's so cold out tonight
I'll put blankets on the bed
but I won't turn out the light

Just don't forget to
think about me
and I won't forget you
"I'll write you once a week." she said

why does it feel the same
to fall in love or break it off
and if young love is just a game
I must have missed the kickoff

Don't depend on me
to ever follow through on
Anthing, but
I'd go throught hell for you and

I haven't been this scared in a long time
and I'm so unprepared, so here's your valentine
bouquet of clumsey words, a simple melody
this world's and ugly place, but you're so beautiful to me

I'll think about the times
you kissed me after class and
you put up with my friends
I acted like an ass

I ditched my lecture
to watch the girls play soccer
is my picture
still hanging in her locker?

I haven't been this scared in a long time
and I'm so unprepared, so here's your valentine
bouquet of clumsey words, a simple melody
this world's and ugly place, but you're so beautiful to me

I haven't been this scared in a long time
and I'm so unprepared, so here's your valentine
bouquet of clumsey words, a simple melody
this world's and ugly place, but you're so beautiful to me

WHAT'S MY AGE AGAIN
I took her out, it was a Friday night
I wore cologne to get the feeling right
We started makin' out and she took off my pants
But then, I turned on the TV

And that's about the time she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And are still more amused by TV shows
What the hell is ADD, my friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

Then later on, on the drive home
I called her mom from a pay phone
I said I was the cops and your husband's in jail
This state looks down on sodomy

And that's about the time that bitch hung up on me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And are still more amused by prank phone calls
What the hell is call ID, my friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

And that's about the time she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And you still act like you're in freshman year
What the hell is wrong with me, my friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?

That's about the time that she broke up with me (what's my age again?)
No one should take themselves so seriously
With many years ahead to fall in line
Why would you wish that on me, I'll never wanna act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

What's my age again...

DYSENTARY GARY
Got a lotta heart ache
He's a fuckin' weasel
His issues make my mind ache
Wanna make a deal

'Cause I love your little motions
You do with your pigtails
What a nice creation
Worth another night in jail

He's a player, diarrhea giver
Tried to grow his hair out, friends were listening to Slayer
I'd like to find him Friday night
Hanging out with mom, trying on his father's tights

Life just sucks, I lost the one
I'm giving up, she found someone
There's plenty more
Girls are such a drag

So all you little ladies
Be sure to choose the right guys
You'll come back to me maybe
I'll shower you with lies

Got a lotta heart ache
He's a fuckin' weasel
Decisions make my mind ache
Wanna make a deal

Ease away the problems and the pain
The girl chose the guy that makes you wanna kick and scream
All along, you wish that she would stay
Fuck the guy that took and ran away, yeah

He's a player, diarrhea giver
Tried to grow his hair out, friends were listening to Slayer
I'd like to find him Friday night
Hanging out with mom and trying on his father's tights

Life just sucks, I lost the one
I'm giving up, she found someone
There's plenty more
Girls are such a drag

Fuck this place, I lost the war
I hate you all, your mom's a whore
Where's my dog?
'Cause girls are such a drag

All the Small Things
All the small things
True care, truth brings
I'll take one lift
Your ride, best trip

Always, I know
You'll be at my show
Watching, waiting
Commiserating

Say it ain't so, I will not go
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na

Late night, come home
Work sucks, I know
She left me roses by the stairs
Surprises let me know she cares

Say it ain't so, I will not go
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na

Say it ain't so, I will not go
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Keep your head still, I'll be your thrill
The night will go on, my little windmill

Say it ain't so, I will not go (na na na na na na na na na na)
Turn the lights off, carry me home (na na na na na na na na na na)
Keep your head still, I'll be your thrill (na na na na na na na na na na)
The night will go on, the night will go on (na na na na na na na na na na)
My little windmill

THE PARTY SONG
Do you wanna come to a party
My friends picked me up in their truck at 11:30
This thing's at a frat house, but people are cool there
Reluctant, I followed, but I never dreamed

There would be someone there who would catch my attention
I wasn't out looking for love or affection
So I paid my 3 and the girls got in free
Shined the beer for tequila and we headed into the party

And then, in the backyard, some terrible ska band
Someone in the background was doing a keg stand
This place is so lame, all these girls look the same
All these guys have no game, I wish I would have stayed

In my bed, back at home, watching TV alone
Where I'd put on some porn or have sex on the phone
Far from people I hate, down from anywhere state
Trying to intoxicate girls to give them head after the party

And then, I saw her standing there
With green eyes and long blond hair
She wasn't wearing underwear, at least I prayed that
She might be the one
Maybe we'd have some fun
Maybe we'd watch the sun rise

But that night, I learned some girls try too hard
Na na na, na na na, na na na
Some girls try too hard
Na na na, na na na, na na na
Some girls try too hard to impress with the way that they dress
With those things on their chests and the things they suggest to me

I couldn't believe what this lady was saying
The names she was dropping and the games she was playing
She dated this guy who now rides for Black Flys
How she's down with the wise well-constructed disguise

Now, I'd rather go dateless than stay here and hate this
Her volume of makeup, her fake tits were tasteless
So I said I'd call her, but never would bother
Until I got turned down by another girl at a party

So when you see her standing there
With green eyes and long blond hair
She won't be wearing underwear and you'll discover
This girl's not the one and she'll never be fun
You should just turn and run
Because you'll find out that some girls try too hard

Na na na, na na na, na na na
Some girls try too hard
Na na na, na na na, na na na
And some girls try too hard to impress with the way that they dress
With those things on their chest and the things they suggest to me

Na na na, na na na, na na na
Some girls try too hard
Na na na, na na na, na na na
Some girls try too hard


MUTT
He pauses shaving and he tells himself that he is the bomb
She has her curlers set, her credit cards are paying the funds
He's not that old, I've been told, a strong sexual goal
He goes out everyday, she goes every way, oh yeah
They don't even care at all

She's open, waiting for more
And I know he's only looking to score
And it is way too unhealthy, often they've typically
Been starved for attention before

She smokes a dozen and he doesn't seem to notice the smell
He took the seat off his own bike, because the way that it felt
He wants to bone this, I know she is ready to blow
They go out every night, his pants are super tight, oh yeah
They don't even care at all

She's open, waiting for more (she's open, waiting for more)
And I know he's only looking to score (he's only looking to score)
And it is way too unhealthy, often they've typically
Been starved for attention before

She's open, waiting for more
And I know he's only looking to score
And it is way too unhealthy, often they've typically
Been starved for attention before

Wendy Clear
Let's take the boat out on the bay
Forget your job for just one day
I wish it didn't have to be so bad
It might be inappropriate because
Either way our band gets dropped, oh yeah
I wish it didn't have to be so bad

But I'd play with fire to break the ice
And I'd play with a nuclear device
Is it something I'll regret, why do I want what I can't get?
I wish it didn't have to be so bad

The three-date theory is getting old
Everyone's getting left out in the cold
I wish it didn't have to be so bad
So I'll see you with another guy
Who pretends not to hear you when you cry, oh yeah
I wish it didn't have to be so bad

But I'd play with fire to break the ice
And I'd play with a nuclear device
Is it something I'll regret, why do I want what I can't get?
I wish it didn't have to be so bad

I'll be movin' on
Movin' on
Movin' on, on, on
Movin' on
Movin' on
Movin' on, on, on

But I'd play with fire to break the ice
And I'd play with a nuclear device
Is it something I'll regret, why do I want what I can't get?
I wish it didn't have to be so bad

I wish it didn't have to be so bad
I wish it didn't have to be so bad
I wish it didn't have to be so bad

PATHETIC
I know I'm pathetic I knew when she said it
A loser a bum's what she called me when I drove her home
There's no more waiting and sure no more wasting
I've done all I can
But she still wants to be left alone

You got, you got, you got to help me out
And I'll try not to argue
No one, no one, no one likes a drop-out
Mistakes are hard to undo

Don't pull me down this is where I belong
I think I'm different
But I'm the same and I'm wrong
Don't pull me down this is where I belong
I think I'm different
This is where I belong

I think it's disgusting believing and trusting
If I gave a fuck
There would be nothing for me to prove
Although it's amusing, it's slightly confusing
I've done all I can
But her ego is still hard to move

You got, you got, you got to help me out
And I'll try not to argue
No one, no one, no one likes a drop-out
Mistakes are hard to undo

Don't pull me down this is where I belong
I think I'm different
But I'm the same and I'm wrong
Don't pull me down this is where I belong
I think I'm different
This is where I belong

Don't pull me down this is where I belong
I think I'm different
This is where I belong

VOYEUR
And when the day ends I'm sure she feels sorrow
The lonely guy I am I wait for her to change
I've been here two days, I'll sure be here tomorrow
I'd eat her all if she were on my dinner plate

And I wish, I wish she'd be more kind now
I'm out of luck cause the shades are pulled down
I've seen everything there is to be shown
I followed her all the way home

I can't be too cool in a tree with my pants down
The air is cold and I've got splinters in my feet
She caught me once but I don't think that she cares now
Unlike before her view is now blocked by a leaf

And I wish, I wish she'd be more kind now
I'm out of luck cause the shades are pulled down
I've seen everything there is to be shown
I followed her all the way home

I bet this last times the one time too many
The rush of waiting is burning through my head
Right after supper, her brother showers twice a week
He kicks my ass so much that filthy white inbred

I've made mistakes by looking in the wrong window
Her dad is big and I have never seen his face
I've been here two days I'll sure be here tomorrow
My lady's so sweet she likes to entertain

And I wish, I wish she'd be more kind now
I'm out of luck cause the shades are pulled down
I've seen everything there is to be shown
I followed her all the way home

I bet this last times the one time too many
The rush of waiting is burning through my head
Right after supper, her brother showers twice a week
He kicks my ass so much that filthy white inbred

DAMMIT
It's alright to tell me what you think about me
I won't try to argue or hold it against you
I know that you're leaving, you must have your reasons
The season is calling your pictures are falling down

The steps that I retraced the sad look on your face
The timing and structure, did you hear, he fucked her
A day late a buck short I'm writing the report
On losing and failing when I move I'm flailing now

And it's happened once again, I'll turn to a friend
Someone that understands, sees through the master plan
But everybody's gone and I've been here for too long
To face this on my own, well I guess this is growing up

And maybe I'll see you at a movie, sneak preview
You show up and walk by on the arm of that guy
And I'll smile and you'll wave
We'll pretend it's okay
The charade, it won't last
When he's gone, I won't come back

And it'll happen once again, you'll turn to a friend
Someone that understands, sees through the master plan
But everybody's gone, and you've been there for too long,
To face this on your own, well I guess this is growing up

Well, I guess this is growing up

BORING
You don't need nothing
And I know that you won't even try
Don't wait for me to help you
Too late for any of my advice

No trust
All I got is lies
Boring
Alright

Misplaced your values
Forgot being the importance of being right
Don't sit there and act humble
I've heard your story a thousand times

No trust
All I got is lies
Boring
Alright

DICK LIPS
Please mom
You ground me all the time
I know that I was right all along

And I'm hoping
Remember I'm a kid
I know not what I did
Just having fun

You couldn't wait for something new
And yesterday I thought of you
It left me to think as if I couldn't walk away
It's too late, I fell through

Nothing to lose
A boy who went out
When he finished all his chores
Nothing to do
They can't trust me
Because I blew it once before

Shit dad
Please don't kick my ass
I know I've seen you trashed
At least one time

Can I blame it
On one of my dumb friends
It's been awhile
Since I have used that line

You couldn't wait for something new
And yesterday I thought of you
It left me to think as if I couldn't walk away
It's too late, I fell through

Nothing to lose
A boy who went out
When he finished all his chores
Nothing to do
They can't trust me
Because I blew it once before

Nothing to lose
A boy who went out
When he finished all his chores
Nothing to do
They can't trust me
Because I blew it once before

WAGGY
Watching your house shrink away
In my rearview mirror
As I drive away
Wishing that I could take back all those words
That meant nothing that I didn't say

I'm trying to be what you want me to be
But it's so damn hard to keep playing the part
Of the fool, week after week

I think you need some time alone
You say you want someone to call your own
Open your eyes, you can suck in your pride
You can live your life all on your own

Is this all going to be just another time
That we play this game?
I've tried to convince you that things could be different
But somehow they end up the same

But what did you expect from me?
What am I supposed to do?
You say that you're starting to feel
Like you're getting lost
Well, I do too

I don't wanna live this lie again
I know I'll get it right but I don't know when
I'll open my eyes, I've got something inside
I'll just jack off in my room until then

It's never over 'til it's done
And I don't think that you're the one
It's never over 'til it's done
And I don't think that you're the one

ENTHUSED
Am I
Strung out
Crazy
Or not allowed
To be the one who gets stupid over you

Lazy
Laid back
Maybe you're just on crack
Why am I the one who gets fucked up and confused?

She doesn't care at all
She doesn't care at all
She doesn't care about those times we never shared at all

If I were the last
Of the few who always ask
Would you still be the same person that I knew
And if it's for me
Another boring story
I swear I'll act enthused

UNTITLED
I think of a while ago
We might of have had it all
I was so stupid then
You needed time to grow
But now just as things change
As well my feelings do
In time things rearrange
I am so sick of chasing you

But what do I get 'cause I just seem to lose
You make me regret those times I spent with you
And playing those games as I wait for your call
And now I give up, so goodbye and so long

It's not a change of pace
This time I'll get it right
It's not a change of taste
I was the one there last night

You have your other friends
They were there when you cried
Didn't mean to hurt you then
Best friends just won't leave your side

But what do I get 'cause I just seem to lose
You make me regret those times I spent with you
And playing those games as I wait for your call
And now I give up, so goodbye and so long

It's not a change of pace
This time I'll get it right
It's not a change of taste
I was the one there last night

When I needed you most
When I needed a friend
You let me down now
Like I let you down then
So sorry, it's over

APPLE SHAMPOO
She didn't mean to deceive you, believe me
But sometimes the hardest part is conceiving
The good intentions that you had
Now only came to this
And although she saw the mark
The arrow missed

It isn't exciting reciting the stories
Of kind words turned hurting when routine get boring

Both getting tired of punk rock clubs
And both playing in punk rock bands
The start was something good
But some good things must end

And she said, "It could never survive
With such differing lives
One home, one out on tour again
We may never come back
The strike of a match
The candle's burning at both ends"

And now she knows too much
And I'm too fucked up
It's awkward trying to make my move

I'll pretend that I'm fine
Show up right on time
But I know I'll never be that cool
I never wanted to hold you back
I just wanted to hold on
But my chance is gone

I know
Just where
I stand
A boy
Trapped in the body of a man and

I'll take what you're willing to give
And I'll teach myself to live
With a walk-on part of a background shot
From a movie I'm not in

She's so important
And I'm so retarded

And now I realize
I should have kissed you in LA
But I drove home all alone
As if I had a choice, anyway

Where are you coming from?
What are you running from?
Is it so hard to see?

And if you're feeling scared
Remember the time we shared
You know it meant everything
You know that it meant everything to me

You know that it meant everything to me

EMO
One more time you will laugh about it
And he'll never try to give you more
And I don't care, he is such a dick
Treats you like you are a stupid whore
And it seems like things will never change
You go on, every cloud is in your way
And I know you feel empty all the time
You'll never listen to anything that I say

She's better off sleeping on the floor
'Cause she fell right off when all
Is said, you know
It's okay to just want more

Why leave when you claim it is love?
But why stay when you're not the only one?
She's proved she's strong
Be brave, be strong

She's better off sleeping on the floor
'Cause she fell right off when all
Is said, you know
It's okay to just want more

She's better off sleeping on the floor
She's better off sleeping on the floor
Because she fell right off her bed

JOSIE
Yeah
My girlfriend
Takes me home when I'm too drunk to drive
And she doesn't get all jealous when I hang out with the guys
She laughs at my dumb jokes when no one does
She brings me mexican food from Sombrero just because
Yeah, just because

And my girlfriend
Likes UL and DHC
And she's so smart and independent, I don't think she needs me
Quite half as much as I know I need her
I wonder why there's not another guy that she'd prefer

And when I feel like giving up
Like my world is falling down
I show up at 3am
She's still up watching Vacation
And I see her pretty face
It takes me away to a better place and

(I know that everything) Everything's gonna be fine
(I know that everything) Everything's gonna be fine

Yeah, my girlfriend
Takes collect calls from the road
And it doesn't seem to matter that I'm lacking in the bulge
She laughs at my dumb jokes when no one does
She brings me Mexican food from Sombrero just because

And when I feel like giving up
Like my world is falling down
I show up at 3am
She's still up watching Vacation
And I see her pretty face
It takes me away to a better place and

(I know that everything) Everything's gonna be fine
(I know that everything) Everything's gonna be fine

A NEW HOPE
I've got her in my head
At night when I go to bed
And I know it sounds lame, but
She's the girl of my dreams

And of course I'd do anything for her
I'd search the moons of Endor
I'd even walk naked through
The deserts of Tatooine

Princess Leia, where are you tonight?
And who's laying there by your side?
Every night I fall asleep with you
And I wake up alone

And even though I'm not as cool as Han
I still want to be your man
You're exactly the kind of
Alderranian that I need

But when you were available, I was
Drinking Colt 45's with Lando
I was hanging out in the cantina
On Mos Eisley

Princess Leia, where are you tonight?
And who's laying there by your side?
Every night I fall asleep with you
And I wake up alone

Princess Leia
Princess Leia

Princess Leia, where are you tonight?
And who's laying there by your side?
Every night I fall asleep with you
And I wake up alone

DEGENERATE
Crossed the street, naked at night
Bent over to show some moonlight
Pulled out some beer and I gulped it down
Nude in a gutter is how I was found

Thrown in the policecar and the door slammed
No noise, just silence, as I screamed, my Dick was
Jammed, now in prison for one month, no one to see
All I got is a guy Ben Dover

Don't like hesh, don't like rap
Kicked ol' Sally 'cause she's fat
I'm a jerk, I'm a punk
Took a shower 'cause I stunk
Smoked a bong, killed a cat
Had my nuts attacked by rats
Dad got nude, I wore a thong
For a hobby I make bombs

Went to a farm to tip some cows
Forgot that I left my pants down
Bent over to pick them up
Felt a twelve gauge up my hum-diddy-dum

The farmer took me to his house
Showed me the closet from the inside out
The police came, they took me away
Saw Ben Dover again and he's still gay

Don't like hesh, don't like rap
Kicked ol' Sally 'cause she's fat
I'm a jerk, I'm a punk
Took a shower 'cause I stunk
Smoked a bong, killed a cat
Had my nuts attacked by rats
Dad got nude, I wore a thong
For a hobby I make bombs

Don't like hesh, don't like rap
Kicked ol' Sally 'cause she's fat
I'm a jerk, I'm a punk
Took a shower 'cause I stunk
Smoked a bong, killed a cat
Had my nuts attacked by rats
Dad got nude, I wore a thong
For a hobby I make bombs

LEMMINGS
A freight train to the right, feeling that sting of pride
It's fucking with me, it's fucking with you
All's fair in love and war until you say it isn't but you're wrong

Words on the back of flyers, my clothes are in the dryer
It means nothing, nothing is changing
La familia is dead and gone, the children grew up and moved on

Is it too much to ask for the things to work out this time?
I'm only asking for what is mine
I wanted everything, I got it and now I'm gonna
Throw it away, I'll throw it away yeah

Prime select and a box of glazed, pulling flybys on days
When we were young and innocent
Elbow-drop Sundays when Mark Eaton got beat to shit

Laughing at the bands we hate, all the spots we used to skate
They're still there, but we've gone our own ways
I know it's for the best but sometimes I wonder
Will I ever have friends like you again?

Is it too much to ask for the things to work out this time?
I'm only asking for what is mine
I wanted everything, I got it and now I'm gonna
Throw it away, I'll throw it away yeah

Is it too much to ask for the things to work out this time?
I'm only asking for what is mine
I wanted everything, I got it and now I'm gonna
Throw it away, I'll throw it away yeah

You're gonna drown in the mess you make
Your self-inflicted hate
You turn your back on the friends you lose
When they don't follow all your rules

But people are what they wanna be
They're not lemmings to the sea
Maybe it's time you looked at yourself
And stop blaming life on someone else

I'M SORRY
Don't bide your time
'Cause it is almost over
I know you're down
And I'll see you around

And I know it hurts
You're just getting older
And I know you'll win
You'll do it once again

Just yesterday
It always seemed like such a dream
We're unstoppable, indestructible
Nothing happens to our machine
And there's no harm
At least nothing we can see
As for you, not so true
You couldn't choose where this road would lead

What a loss
You just lost all your sleep
And we've always thought
That this could never happen, you see

That it's so hard
You gotta get up on your feet
'Cause the only way, I gotta say
Is to move on through the week

Don't bide your time
'Cause it is almost over
I know you're down
And I'll see you around

And I know it hurts
But you're just getting older
I know you'll win
You'll do it once again

Don't bide your time
'Cause it is almost over
I know you're down
And I'll see you around

And I know it hurts
But you're just getting older
And I know you'll win
You'll do it once again
