I could slip, I could fall
In that mean and awful hall With the other jealous bitches And the bitter grumbling men I could sneer, I could glare say that life is so unfair And the one who made it, made it 'Cuz her breasts were really big Well I don't wanna get bitter I don't wanna get cruel I don't wanna get old before I have to I could bitch, I could moan Say I want to be left alone But that's not really true, Because I like my time with you Till you rant and you rave Wishing fat folks to their grave But I feel sorry for them You say they get what they deserve Well I don't wanna get bitter I don't wanna get cruel I don't wanna get old before I have to I don't wanna get jaded Petrified and weighted I don't wanna get bitter like you Like you, with the darts in your eyes Like you, with disdain for mankind I was charmed, now I wonder Well I don't wanna get bitter I don't wanna get cruel I don't wanna get old before I have to So I'll smile with the rest I'll wish everyone the best And know the one who made it, Made it cuz she was actually pretty good Well I don't wanna get bitter I don't wanna get cruel I don't wanna get old before I have to |

I wake up every morning to the sound of birds
It's really not birds it's my neighbor's TV She watches talk shows all day long I used to hate her but now we get along I used to sit under a gloomy cloud of gray And now the sun is shining and it won't go away I used to go up I used to go down Now I'm just even here in Happy Town Happy Town My boyfriend Bob he said I made him miserable But we stayed together 'cause the sex was really good And then he packed his bags with me to Happy Town We don't fuck anymore, but we can really snuggle down I used to sit under a gloomy cloud of gray And now the sun is out and my whole world is beige I used to go up I used to go down Now I'm just even here in Happy Town I don't get excited But nor do I frown The lawn is always neat in Happy Town Happy Town Happy Town To get to Happy Town you can call your doctor You can unscrew the child-proof bottle cap Pour yourself a glass of water I used to sit under a gloomy cloud of gray And now the sun is shining and it won't go away I used to go up I used to go down Now I'm just even here in Happy Town I don't get excited Nor do I frown The lawn is always neat in Happy Town Happy Town Happy Town I used to go up I used to go down Now I'm just even here in Happy Town I don't get excited But nor do I frown Life is just OK in Happy Town Happy Town Happy Tow |

Another barren egg, another month gone by
Just more time to do as I please No one watching over me I don't have to make my bed I can lay in it instead With no one there to bother me 'Cause I'm free it's just me Another friend got caught Another friend knocked up Another friend with nothing in common with me Another night with you Spending time with you I'm still alone 'cause you're the freest man I've ever known I'm free just me I'm free nobody but me I'm free save me Free as the snow as it melts away Free as the wind on a real calm day Free as the moth on my window pane Like you like me Another barren egg another year gone by Just more time to do as I please No one's tugging at my sleeve I can be as rude as I please No one's going to fire me Floating in this endless sea I'm free just me I'm free nobody but me I'm free save me |

One leg in one leg out
What do you get with a half a heart Part brave soul the rest is not What do you get with a half a heart? A half a mind, a half a spine A half a glass, a half alive One step in, one step out What do you get with a half a heart One breath in one breath out Coming and going with a half a heart One eye looks so lovingly The other looks right through me In search of something better or more beautiful To fill you up, to fill your cup To make you feel like you're the king of the hill One step in, one step out What do you get with a half a heart? The angels on my shoulder whisper in my ears Say "What've you got to lose" The gremlins on the other side Say "she doesn't really love you" We're half way there, we're half way back We've half a chance, we're so half assed You say hello, I say goodbye We turn in circles and we both change sides One step in, one step out, One breath in, one breath out, One leg in, one leg out What do you get with a half a heart? |

There's a dim light off the pier
And I've been watching it for years 'Thru the crashing waves there's a distant bell It won't stop ringing in my head All I do is stare and wait For her to come and take me far away When my ship comes in I'll be happenin' After all these years I'll be happy When my ship comes in You'll finally love me Then I can leave you when my ship comes in There's a bitter old man on the shore An albatross tied 'round his throat And he tells me to forget that boat He rambles on I just get bored I hear the laughter of the crew They know the ropes they'll see me through To truth and brighter days When my ship comes in I won't be lonely I'll have lots of friends and they'll all want me When my ship comes in you might be sorry And I'll be something when my ship comes in When my ship comes in I'll be standing at the rail Waving you goodbye You'll never be standing on the beach You'll be wondering why When my ship comes in I might take you You could swab the decks if you're nice today When my ship comes in we'll be something Won't that be something when my ship comes in When my ship comes in I'll be happenin' After all these years I'll be happy When my ship comes in you'll finally love me Then I can have you when my ship comes in Ship comes in |

I can be clever, I can be clever
I can charm your pants off, I can be clever I can be funny, I can make you laugh I can amuse you, I can make you laugh I can be tender or I can be dirty I can make you feel like you rule the world I could be patient I can be kind I know how to listen or look like I am I can be trusted, I can be kind As far as you can throw me, I can be trusted I can be blue I can get real depressed I can stay all day in my bed I can get anxious I can get anxious When I think of you I just get anxious I can get angry I can get angry I can smash your windshield I can get angry I can't wait to be in your arms again 'Cause I always think this could be the last time When you dig deep and you see more and you get bored I could be sorry I could be sorry About your windshield I could be sorry And I could be clever, I can be clever I can charm your pants off I can be clever |

I'm so happy, when you're here
And I'm not a happy girl So like a miracle occurs I'm happy when you're near And all my angels appear And the demons leave my ear And I want to clean the kitchen We're two peas from the same pod Bowing down to the same God We're not sure exists We both walk with heavy souls With bullet holes And a backpack full of bad affairs and fears I'm happy when you're here, kinda I'm so happy when you're here We both laugh at the same cruel jokes We both still drink and smoke Well I'm happy when you're here, kinda I'm so happy when you're here We're two peas from the same pod Bowing down to the same God we hope exists We both walk with heavy souls With bullet holes And a backpack full of bad affairs and fears I'm happy when you're here Happy, somewhat happy more or less |

Little guy, little guy, such a little guy
Such a little guy, in such a big body Little mind, little mind, you were once mine Such a small mind in such a big body Maybe I'm not so fair to little guys He stood tall up when he was by my side Little heart, little heart such a little biddy heart Such an unbrave heart in such a big body Such a big body Maybe I'm not so fair to little guy He loomed large when he loved me Little guy, little guy, little guy such a little guy Such a little guy such a big body |

She's an underachiever
She's only passed Spanish and gym She's not bad at essays She can bullshit her way through them She wears the walkman under her hood She hides the magazine in her book She looks like she's elsewhere The girls in the school can be so mean The boys never pay attention She's in love with her history teacher She can't wait till she gets older Underachiever The halls in school look daunting They get longer and slower each day She moves past the smiles and whispers And the rumors that won't go away The girls in the school can be so mean And the boys just don't seem to matter She looks at the clock every minute or two She can't wait till class is over Underachiever She wakes up in the morning With a lump in her throat She thinks of excuses to stay in bed All day all day long She tells me a big secret She writes to me almost twice a day It's a lot for me to deal with I wish I could give her more time 'Cause the girls in the school They were so mean And the boys never paid me attention I was in love with my English teacher I couldn't wait to get older The girls in the school The boys in the school The halls in the school The girls in the school Underachiever Only passed Spanish and gym Underachiever She's an underachiever |

Love is never equal
I learned that early at home Someone always loves more than the other And ends will always come So you might as well have beginnings Love is never equal after all Love is never equal The love between two people Someone always gets the shorter straw Love can be so tender But you always must remember Love is never equal after all Last year I had someone Who worshipped at my feet He gave me everything I wanted But he did not interest me And now I'm standing naked Like one of those bad dreams Where everyone has clothes on 'Cept for me Love is never equal The love between two people Someone always gets kicked to the curb Love can be so tender But you always must remember Love is never equal after all Love is never equal The love between two people Someone always gets kicked to the curb Someone's always left out freezing Battered down and bleeding Love is never equal after all Someone's always cheated Hoodwinked and mistreated Love is never equal after all |

Our lord loves the family, our lord loves the saved
Our lord love the unborn babies and the NRA Our lord~hates the liberals, the faggots and their friends We're soldiers of Christ and we're here to defend The way it used to be The way it ought to be The way it's going to be again In the days of Cain and Abel In the days of crusades In the days of inquisitions They made the damned behave Before emancipation Before Roe Vs. Wade Before they taught little children That they evolved from apes The way it used to be The way it ought to be The way it's going to be again And when we're in heaven you'll be sorry then Our lord loves the sinner as long as he don't sin He knows the thoughts you're thinking He knows with whom you've been And out lord loves this country, he's with you at the polls He knows the lever that you pull He's keeping track of souls The way it used to be The way it ought to be The way it's going to be again And when we're in heaven you'll be sorry When we're in heaven you'll be sorry When we're in heaven you'll be sorry then! |

Would you have hidden me in your attic
That's the question I'd like to know Would you have climbed up to serve my dinner Well I hope so When the jack-booted men Wore those great uniforms Would you have wanted the blackest Would you have hidden me in your attic If let's say in some caf' We saw the tanks roll by Would you take my hand and lead me Cross the border line Would you have hidden me in your attic If the neighbors accused me of casting spells And bowing down to the gods in hell You would leave me there alone Or would you cast the very first stone You'd be there to ease my pain Or pack me on that awful train Would you have hidden me in your attic That's the question I'll never know Would you have climbed up to serve me dinner Well I hope so |

I feel like an outline
Where the middle part is missing And the moonlight is kissing The details away I feel like a cliffnote To a novel no one can read And I feel like such a phony Like I got 'em all deceived And I feel like a punch line Nobody gets I bet that you're laughing And shaking your head I sold my soul And nothing happened Yeah nothing happened When I sold my soul I feel like an outline To a picture you started to paint Now the sunlight is fading The colors away How's it feel to have insides Something to hold I wish I could touch you How could I know When I sold my soul And Nothing Happened Yeah Nothing Happened When I sold my soul Just a big black hole And Nothing Happened And I bet you're laughin' 'Cause I sold my soul |

"Take me back, Take me home, to world that never was.
Cones and Roman Candles in the sky, 4th of July, The dog's crouched in the basement, Dad was still alive, The fading grain of Super 8 Makes everything seem really great, And I look happy as a clam. Take me back, Take me home to the world that never, The world that never, The world that never was. Another birthday party with the braces on my legs, The rented clown made cotton candy and animal balloons, It looks like I had lot's friends, They laugh with me into the lens, And, hey, there's Carol Fango, Before she sliced her wrists. Take me back, Take me home, To the world that never, The world that never, To the world that never.... |
