~LYRICS~
In my little town…
In my little town…
And if you run somewhere, you could be somewhere
And you could die somewhere if you use sunwear

~LYRICS~
And I don't wanna go back to the start
No I don't wanna go back to the start
And I just can't live in any other time than now, oh-woah-oh
And I won't just sit here and explain
No I won't just sit here and explain
How the deck is stacked in so many ways, you (can't) see, mm-hm-mm
If you're any kind of other
Turns out things are just harder
Yes, we each sometimes cry:
"I don't wanna be dismembered!"
And I don't believe in the good old days
No I don't believe in those good old days
That fiction is vicious and essentially garbage, oh-wa-oh
And this talk of making things great again
No, this talk of making things white again
It's as easy to see through as your bland-ass culture, oh-ho-ho
If you're any kind of other
Turns out things are just harder
Yes, we each sometimes cry:
"I don't wanna be dismembered!"
If you're our kind of other
Trans siblings, sisters and brothers
Queer siblings, sisters and brothers
Disabled siblings, sisters and brothers
Our best days are yet to come
When these fascist motherfuckers’ll hardly be remembered

Come on over, in the hot wet Summer, I hear you’re in new in town
Come on over, oh yeah I play in a band, you probably ain’t heard of us
Oh, would you like to join our scene?
Oh, would you like to join our scene?
Oh, would you like to join our scene?
Josie, Josie
Josie, Josie
Come on over, see those drums and guitars, teach us a thing or two?
Come on over, how do you deal with those chumps? Archie seems such a fool
Oh, would you like to join our scene?
Oh, would you like to join our scene?
Oh, would you like to join our scene?
Melody, Melody
Melody, Melody
Oh, would you like to join our scene?
Oh, would you like to join our scene?
Oh, would you like to join our scene?
Valerie, Valerie
Valerie, Valerie
And did you know?
You were the best in Riverdale, You were the best in Riverdale
You were the best in Riverdale

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"

~LYRICS~
June couldn't come quick enough for the ones who play outside
But Kate and I, we were alright: uptight, every night, summer fun
Metallica shows, disdain for The Rolling Stones, hipster vinyl on CD [hipster vinyl on CD]
Tekken Tag, impressions of lads, did you see her see him see me?
[Did you see her see him see me?]
[Did you see her see him see me?]
And this is how our summer's made
Kate are you leaving?
And yeah, we both need to behave
Early in the evening!
The rumour-mill nights spent online, like a horror movie plot unfolds
These times would be dull, hey JT Krul: your Justice League sucks or so I'm told [Batman, Superman]
But Kate and I, we pass the time trying not to roll in the hay
Our schemes evolve, sidetrack our minds, so we behave like non-lovers should behave
[be!]
[Did you see her see him see me?]
And this is how our summer's made
Kate are you leaving?
And yeah, we both need to behave
Early in the evening!
...
Kate, are you leaving?
Early in the evening?
Kate, are you leaving?
Early in the evening

~LYRICS~
Headin' out across the town
Goin' down to the supermarket
All the things I want to buy are not on sale
Run into an old friend
She's browsing the cosmetics
And I know it's not my business, but I just can't help it
And all those times in the last six months
We passed without a goddamn word
Seem foolish now, we laugh anyhow..
We each have stories, need to be heard
And I ask, "Well, how are the kids?"
And she says, "Well, how is Liz?"
And we both go, "You don't want to know, you don't want to know"
Make plans for later on
Take the bus into Cooper's Town
Opt to hit the nearest bar, and find neither of us drinks
So it's a root beer for me, and a lemonade for her
It's all good
And the hours slip by as though we were [YOUNG]
And all those times in the last six months
We passed without a goddamn word
Seem foolish now, we laugh anyhow..
We each have stories, need to be heard
And I ask, "Well, how are the kids?"
And she says, "Well, how is Liz?"
And we both go, "You don't want to know, you don't want to know"
And movin' on
We catch a late night movie
Once the curtain comes down, we head back to town
[And at the end of the night]
I said "I wish I'd known just how you were"
"Well I'm only like this now", she says and adds
"So it's just perfect, if rather quite tragic"
[AND TEARS]
'Cause all the time of the last ten years
When we could have had so much more
It's stupid now, impossible anyhow..
And I shout, "Remember the kids!"
And she says, "Well, I hate Liz"
And yeah, she confirms "I always did, I always did"
How does it end?
How does our story end?
Let's just say nothing special
It was a quiet year

~LYRICS~
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

And do you wanna play baseball in the park?
And do you wanna play baseball after dark?
No more fried food, no more chicken and fries

~LYRICS~
And ever since I got back
From living abroad
Things have changed, I know
And ever since you came down
From that long, long trip
Your face is tired, I see
And that's alright, spending time with your other friends tonight
And I'll stay home if you don't mind
And that's okay, spending time at my mother's place tonight
Home-cooked meals
Look so nice
Look so nice
Look so nice, tonight
It might be a date (it might be a date)
Oh, I think it's a date
But it's not my business, and I'm late
And that's alright, spending time with your new boyfriend tonight
And I'll stay home, 'course I don't mind
It's alright, I'm taking care of my Playstation tonight

Garland - 2021 Remaster

------
~LYRICS~
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

~LYRICS~
When we set out at the start of the week
Not to fight, not to lie
Eleanor, can you keep me warm
In the light of this shitty college dorm?
And I investigate where you went
Year abroad, time well spent
And it unfolds like the daily news
All your friends, set to lose
Though not that close, it's still a fucking loss
Your new dyed hair should come down off that cross
And I investigate where you went
Year abroad, time well spent
Time well spent
And you were, like, a genius
And you were, like, a genius
And you were, like, a genius
And you were, like, a genius
