Do you recall that night, when I took you out to eat? You returned everything, you complained about everything And I pay your train fare, but I didn't expect anything So when you asked me upstairs, I just almost forgot how to speak And now I'm out of songs And now I'm out of lines And your company is just fine, so why...is this all I can muster today? So this is how I felt, but it was my only chance That one shot at normality, so I'm trying not to screw this up Well now I wouldn't say inspired, but there's something deep down in there Your face, your place, your name, they're all rattling through my hands And now I'm out of songs And now I'm out of lines And your company is just fine, so why...is this all I can muster? And so all the drinks, all the lies, all the schemes just to get here And can I pay you off, and we'll never ever ever speak of this again? And now I'm out of songs And now I'm out lines And your company is just fine, so why...is this all I can muster? [And maybe I should run away, because I don't have a say] [Because as far as I'm concerned in this, we're always doing it your way]

Don't tell me that you like me/Even if you do It'll only make it weird/Even if I do too, like you Because you're sad and I'm sad/And it's fun And this way we're in competition Sing sing sing/Sing sing sing/sing sing sing Point your ray gun over there/It's time to steal Jemina's hair Gimme gimme, I want that do/It's time to stick it up, so stick it up, up you Don't tell me that you like me/Even if you do It'll only make it weird/Even if I do too, and I like you Because you're sad and I'm sad/And it's fun And this way we're in competition Sing sing sing/Sing sing sing/Sing sing sing Point your ray gun over there/It's time to steal Jemina's hair Gimme gimme, I want that do/It's time to stick it up, so stick it up, up you Point your ray gun over there/It's time to steal Jemina's hair Gimme gimme, I want that do/It's time to stick it up, so stick it up, up you

This girl was out of a dream/She looked and sounded like me So I slapped her hand/Said, "I want you in my band"

Would it be too improper if I just stayed in tonight? I'm not trying to atone, but I guess just waiting 'til it's right And you can meet my friends someday I hear you're optimistic, and my lantern's partly blue But they yellow memory lingers, and my green means I will win you When I'm done at my desk, we'll go and play Let's go outside and play What's your favorite? What's your favorite? I know you like to dance, I know you like to dance, I know you like... And you like movies So let's write one The things I read are strange and I like that you don't mind I'm just trying to be Sinestro, but I'm falling for Indigo And there's a pirate in your dreams Going through it all again my review is pretty clear You're almost always right and there are reasons that you're here And finally, I'm standing up Gonna do my best, go get outside and try to be up to scratch What's your favorite? What's your favorite? I know you like to dance, I know you like to dance, I know you like oh-oh-oh-oh And you like movies So let's write one I miss Favorite I miss Favorite And now I'm in Raynes Park, I wait for Archie to park, and it's just nostalgia And you'll come visit To eat Fillet of Fire, Double Ringer Yes, Boss

Hit the light on/I've gotta get up Children to feed/It's all I need Lunchtime spent listening to Cub Streets are mean/And I don't want my babies out there Sights to see/Corruptive feeds We don't approve of dyed hair Beach on weekends/All our covered little faces No sex/Morality protects And we're welcomed into God's graces Our city is sick/Consumed by sin Our children stuck inside And did Reverend Jones lie? Our city is sick/Chewed up by sin Our Children stuck inside So whom then do we contact? Whom then do we contact for the next of kin? We cry at night/Together all us goodies All so tired/Where's the fire? For this shit we were not born ready Pressure's building up/Chemotherapy bullshit Blood on my shoe/Dinner table, too Such a mess I can only spit, I can only spit, I just can't Our city is sick/Consumed by sin Our children stuck inside And did Reverend Jones lie? Our city is sick/Chewed up by sin Our children just fucked up inside So whom then do we contact? Whom then do we contact for the next of kin?

Garland 02:12
And now I drag out my tattered little notebook that keeps my scattered thoughts together I'm sitting, dancing without motion, dreaming without sleep I'm dragging on the floor, desperate without sound, screaming without voice I'm laying angry, with no frown, a king with no crown Loss, I know I have a loss - but I couldn't care less Loss, I know I have a loss - but I couldn't care less I've lost something, a deep thing, shows on my face like a bruise on infant skin A wound I am left with, burning searing, hurting ever so softly So softly I don't notice, but it's there, it exists Now I contemplate, or am annoyed with the outcome I don't want anything/I don't need anything I don't want change/Or for things to stay the same I just want nothing/And it pains more than desire/It bothers more than gain Should I wait?/Or let go?/ A mind so restless/A wish so strong Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing I can see it/I can see it I can't have it Loss, I know I have a loss - but I couldn't care less Loss, I know I have a loss - but I couldn't care less Loss, I know I have a loss - but I couldn't care less Loss, I know I have a loss - but I couldn't care less

What Is Left 02:44
I'm falling asleep, in the bunker that is life I'm falling asleep, in the time now I'm falling asleep, in the bunker that is life I'm falling asleep, in the time now What can I do? What can I say? What is left to lose? What is left to unturn? I'm falling asleep, in the bunker that is life I'm falling asleep, in the time now I'm falling asleep, in the bunker that is life I'm falling asleep, in the time now What can I do? What can I say? What is left to lose? What is left to unturn Tell the time, without telling a lie Tell the time, without telling a lie Tell the time, without telling a lie Tell the time, without telling a lie What can I do? What can I say? There is nothing left to lose Nothing left to unturn

Kelsey Says 02:21
Kelsey says it was just a Summer's day I wanna spend it passing time There is no rhyme, but you like songs, so go and write one down Kelsey says as she looks into the rearview mirror, she's gonna crash But not on my watch She says thanks He had to come on the motorway just to get here I think they call it the freeway, or the highway or something, but I don't really care Once here there was so few things to do, but no complaint was heard And none of us is Mrs. Powell anymore Kelsey says as she looks into the rearview mirror, she's gonna run a red! But not on my watch, she says okay This is the song because she wants to be Sally, now she's the one riding Take off your gloves, Rogue, I'm never gonna be in vogue And I'll never be fun, I'll never be fun I guess I'll never be fun I guess I'll never be fun I guess I'll never be fun
