An ugly sound it's all around sound is pain won't go away a lot of noise a sonic scare makes you feel like you're somewhere we know we're nowhere we like to think we're somewhere supersonic idiotic brain-infected disconnected you're high got the evil eye and you're not preaching what I believe in you're always talking I'd rather be deaf and dumb I can't stop that ring I can't hear a thing I can't hear myself think supersonic casualty you think you're cool you make the rules cause you got action and you're in fashion you got ideas you got a theory but I don't hear it I've lost my hearing you're so pretentious I'd rather be daf and dumb it's more fun it won't start an earthquake maybe just give you a headache but we're pretty good at that ultra sonic sound attack.

I really wanted to go out with you, so when you smiled I laid my heart on the line You read me my rights and then you said; "Let's go" and nothing more I thought of my nights and how they were They were filled with I know you wouldn't go You'd watch my heart burst then, you'd step in I had to know so I asked, you just had to laugh We sat in the night with my hands cuffed at my side I look at your life and your style I wanted nothing more I know you wouldn't go You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in I had to know so I asked you just had to laugh Walking the line you were a marksman Told me that love like wine is ageless Public defender You had, to admit you wanted, the love of a sex offender I know you wouldn't go You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in I had to know so I asked, you just had to laugh My vision in blue I call you from inside my cell And in the trial you were there with, your badge and rubber boots I think all the time how I'm going to perpatrate love with you And when I get out there's no doubt I'll be sex offensive to you |

She's so hot and I love her a lot.
She's got everything I haven't got, like savoir faire, and joie de vivre, and je ne sais quoi like you wouldn't believe. She's got a monopoly on how to do it properly, so even though she's mad at me, she's who I want to see. Why is she how she is? Her eyes are saying yes but her nos are saying no. Here she comes, here she comes, there she goes. I know I'm no alpha male-- she's out of my league and off my scale. She's twice as high as I can climb. That's why I only get to see her half the time. But my happiness is infinite when my life has this nymph in it so even though her hand is cold, that's what I want to hold. Why is she how she is? Her eyes are saying yes. Nonetheless, it's just a guess. Here she comes, here she comes, there she goes. The odds are even that tonight everything might be all right. Why is she how she is? Her ayes are saying no, but her nays are saying go. Here she comes, here she comes, there she goes. |

Love is dead. Love is dead, but I still can't get her out of my head, so she'll be gone from now on and I'll regret everything I've ever done. She wasn't coming close to what she was supposed to do. It really doesn't matter, still there's not a sadder lie than I love you.
Singing la la la la love is dead that's why I'm sighing and crying and shaking my head-- love is dead. Love is sad. Life is bad when you can't get what you could have had. Days are blue, nights are black. I'd do anything if I could have her back, but I'm just a sap and it's not gonna happen now. It's cold dark and stormy and there's nothing for me out there anyhow. Singing la la la la love is dead that's why I'm crying and lying awake in my bed-- love is dead. Emotional vertigo was never supposed to happen this time, but if she ever were to go back to me there's nowhere I wouldn't climb. Still out on this limb there's only me, a damaged dim and lonely me, stepping on my own toes while I rattle my chain of woes. |

In the rate-your-mate questionnaire, my score makes your hair curl, but you keep coming back to me. Your're just bored enough. You're just out of your gourd enough. You're just standing in front of my lawnmower of love. We're just dim enough. We're just out on a limb enough. We're just gonna get cut up by the lawnmower of love. So welcome to the Love Capades where everything bleeds before it fades, and sometimes we get caught up in the blades. But it used to be okay. It used to be that all we had to spend was what attention we could pay. But now you're the queen of the horrible scene and we're both at our ropes' ends. We're cranky and glum and we know we've become an embarrassment to all our friends. They say we're on the rocks but it all depends. We keep coming back for more. We're just lame enough. We're just the same enough. We're just standing in front of the lawnmower of love. We're just sad enough. We just haven't had enough. We're just gonna get cut up by the lawnmower of love. |

So far, there's no doubt, things are working out
Between us we can cover every base You're cute; I'm not I'm sharp; you've got a certain way of spilling all over the place But you just keep me warm and I'll fill out that form And when they kick me out again, tell them to let me back in Look nice and they won't think twice about it, baby Because there's no stopping us With my brains, your looks, your bait, my hooks We could catch a thousand gravy trains But it would be bad if all we had was my looks and your brains So hold my hand just like we planned So you won't get lost and I won't get thrown out If they get wise, just flash those eyes And I will give them something to get wise about You just make your splash and I'll supply the cash when some comes in It's looking kind of thin and glum but some will come along You'll be glad we stayed, 'cause we'll have it made With your looks, my brains, your tracks, my trains We're re-writing all the record books Just study the floor-plan, and be glad We've got more than your brains and my looks I wonder if under pressure we could make it on our own Could we stand it, empty handed and stranded and all alone? But let's not find out what that would be about I'll stick with you You let yourself be stuck too You and me have a legacy that we can pass on to our kids They could get lucky With my brains, your looks, your nights, my rooks They could really win a lot of games But just think, what if they end up With my looks and your brains? |

You are out of sight, but you're not out of mind
I am out of everything, this much I have divined You're not all that far away Still and all you are away I've got a lot to say There's nothing not to say anymore Listen my dear, this says it all The weather is here, wish you were beautiful Here's one more invitation that I must extend To one more disengagement party that you won't attend Though you may spend some time coming back again sometime 'Cause every time you miss the boat You try to kiss the boat one more time You're cold and unclear, that's true to form The weather is here, wish you were warm You'll soon have other hearts to leave a stain on More parades to rain on It's hopeless. I guess I'm hopeless now, too Things to express, but no way how to To whom this may concern: I'm a message you won't return You're a lesson that I may never learn But never fear, let this suffice The weather is here, wish you were nice The weather is here, wish you were beautiful |

I'll sit through your replies, but I've seen the answers in your eyes. I've still got room for more lies, but now you're walking away.
We had a lovely day. You had to cast a spell on it. I had to try not to dwell on it with nothing to say. I'm already far away, trying to forget another yesterday. Don't snatch your hand away. I promise not to bite you or kiss you just to spite you-- you'll get your way. And I'm only on the way to trying to forget another yesterday. And we've got a ways to go. What I said to you won't get to you, but if we had a place to go I'd stll want to be there too. And I'm always on the way to trying to forget another yesterday. |

She's the slickest chick I've ever known
I take her with me wherever I go to rope in all my fears And open all my beers and to never ever leave me alone She's tiny, shiny and bright, almost too sharp but not quite She does it all somehow She's in my pocket now but I'm gonna take her out tonight She's my Swiss army girlfriend She's holding up her end, and she's all mine So I got a Valentine to send Do I have to draw a diagram? When I'm out of luck or in a jam She can get me hot and out of tight spots And she's ready whenever I am She slices, dices and more She can handle any household chore And I love the feel of her stainless steel When we're rolling all around on the floor She's my Swiss army girlfriend She's in my dresser drawer And I'm all hers And we've got a universe to explore And I love her so, though she may never know Just how low I would go To keep her by my side And open wide for when our worlds collide She's the only game in town She's a thriller that you can't put down So enjoy this song because before too long We're gonna run each other into the ground She's my Swiss army girlfriend We've barely started yet But we're all set And we've got a bassinet to get |

Let me tell you honey how it's gonna be.
You're gonna sit around all night and watch tv: "American Ninja II" ...and I will be with you. And if somebody tries to call up on the phone, you'll let it ring and just pretend that no one's home. You'll know what to do ...and I will be with you. Going all the way, kid. No need to fake it. Half-drunk. Half-naked. Half-awake'll make it all right. The world's so dumb it hurts. Let's overcome it, escape from it, be it or become it all night. All right. You'll pass out on the couch, then wake up with a jerk, and stumble to the phone and call in sick to work. I'll call in sick too, so I can be with you. If we can keep it up like this, you know it won't be long until those golden years start rolling along. You'll be rolling too ..and I will be with you. |

I've got nothing left to believe in or suspend my disbelief in even
I lost my last one when I lost you I've got nothing left that I care for Now there's no one there to be there for I lost all that stuff when I lost you When I lost you, my world was smashed up When I lost you, my life was slashed up When I lost you I lost much more than you will ever know I'm calling to a heart that there's no room in And now I'm feeling barely human I lost everything when I lost you And now everything is so much to lose and not enough to hang on to And what I do and what I think of you is never what I want to And now the advice squad is saying that it's all for the best How there'll be better ones to fall for, how I'm so lucky now to be free But every word of wisdom is dumb Freedom, freedom: you're just gonna be dumb Because it doesn't matter to me When I lost you, I started drifting When I lost you, was only fifteen days ago But still you know that I've been trying for so long To make it through this fog that I've been lost in That we had our love holocaust in I lost everything when I lost you |

There was a time when I thought I would die everytime I thought of you. I'd cry and think myself into a state and drink myself to sleep too late. But what was pulling us and me apart was only breaking in my broken heart: now it's controlled again, on hold again, and more broken in than it's ever been.
So I don't need you now. I can't believe how I ever wondered how I'd ever make it without you-- thinking about you, but I don't need you now. There was a time when I thought I should try to make myself hate you to get by. It wasn't hard to do, to think of you and all the things you put me through. But now I've had some time to contemplate, and I've discovered other things to hate. There's still bitterness I can't resist, but you're moving to the bottom of a pretty long list. So I don't hate you now, and I don't even want to checkmate you now. I still don't like how much you don't want me to touch you, but I don't hate you now. And if I'm crying, well what did you expect? I've been trying, but I still don't know how not to be a wreck. And though I'm still aware you're still out there, still busy breaking someone's heart somewhere, and though to you it's nothing new, for once I've got no explaining to do. Cause I don't know you now, and I don't have anything to show you now, except for all of these apologies that I don't owe you now. |

How long will our love last? I'm very glad you asked, cause if the world don't end, and the sun don't blot out from the sky, and we don't get drive-by shot, and if we kiss each other a lot, our love will last forever and ever.
Love is strong enough, of course, to withstand almost any force, so if the world don't end, and we're not destroyed, and if the earth's not hit by an asteroid (that's something to avoid) our love will last forever and ever. Oh, here we go. Isn't it nice to know our love will last forever and ever? I think you and me are valid: we're two caterpillars in the salad, and that's the way it's supposed to be. We're old and weather-beaten. We haven't yet been eaten, but that's no guarantee. You saw me off at the knee. You got your teeth in me, so if we're not vaporized in world war three, and if there's nothing good tonight on tv and if you don't meet somebody with more money that me, our love will last forever and ever. So let's hope the world won't end, and let's promise once again that if the world don't end and the sky don't fall, and if there's nothing happening at the mall, and if we have any luck at all, our love will last forever and ever. Oh, don't get lost. Just keep your fingers crossed, and our love will last forever and ever. |

It's funny how I'm running into you again
And how you're asking me how I've been I keep running out of girlfriends 'cause they keep running out on me It wasn't so long ago when you were one of them, I know And I still miss you even though you ran away from me Now you're something that I'm not allowed That I had to learn to live without But every so often I still think about you, you, you 'Cause some part of me expects to see more agony than ecstasy And I still can't stop thinking of me and you, you, you I had a speech written for this day You're within reach, but I can't think of anything to say Running into you today meant running out of cards to play And running out of things to say Though they're running through my head Like why I still don't understand why we're not still together And how I'd like to hold your hand one more time Imagine if we were to make that spectacularly bad mistake How many times is my heart gonna break over you, you, you? |

She looks pretty good in blue
She's worn it out a lot You look good on paper too When actually you're not She's not looking anymore For someone to feel sorry for So don'cha 'round no more She's got pretty fake eyelashes Slanted plastic glasses Everyone who passes Says she looks beautiful But don't even think about Asking her to dance 'Cause in your sackcloth and ashes You're never gonna have a chance Sackcloth and ashes... She smeared you with her fingerprints Just because she could She's not sorry for her sins As long as she looks good How can she have so much fun Knowing all the things she's done? She's bad She's strong Or maybe she's stupid But she's got pretty party dresses Manic-panic tresses She believes that less is more Where you're concerned But you can only dream about The places that she's been 'Cause in your sackcloth and ashes They're never gonna let you in One day, maybe, you'll be way beyond This silly habit you've put on Tough and strong enough And wrong, and wrong enough For long enough To belong there But 'til that day comes along You'll be sullen and regretful Querulous and fretful Carrying a head full Of evil thoughts And there'll be lots of girls and people Who want to know where you stand But in your sackcloth and ashes You'll never make them understand Sackcloth and ashes Sackcloth and ashes Sackcloth and ashes They're never gonna understand |

This is what I vow: She shall have my heart to keep; sweetly will we stir and sleep. All the years, as now. Swift the measured sands may run; love like this is never done; she and I are welded one: This is what I vow. This is what I pray: Keep her by me tenderly; keep her sweet in pride of me. Ever and a day. Keep me from the old distress; let me, for our happiness; be the one to love the less: This is what I pray. This is what I know: Lovers' oaths are thin as rain; love's a harbinger of pain. Would it were not so. Ever is my heart a-thirst; ever is my love accurst; She is neither last nor first: This is what I vow

Let me introduce you to our dumb little band you might find it hard to understand-- we've got a show even though we know no one's gonna go we'll crank our second-hand Marshall Stacks' dumb little knobs we're paying for them with our dumb little jobs the guy at the bar says he thinks we're okay we kind of remind him of Green Day but it's a dumb little band and there's not much to say maybe we'll see you when we play in some big empty room one day we do a record every year that nobody's gonna hear or understand -- a dumb little band. Every year we self destruct a bit we break up when the drummer quits we talk him into doing one more show and them the bass-player quits and we break up again we don't know how to be regular guys or what to do with our dumb little lives we don't have anything to prove we'll be in trouble if we ever do cause it's a dumb little band but we travel through the land we unpack all our stuff from our dumb little van we play some songs and then we pack it up again hand in hand -- a dumb little band not exactly in demand. Our friends are all busy with their own affairs becoming punk rock millionaires they're taping their live album at the Hollywood Bowl we're taping our flyers to the telephone pole it's a dumb little band and nobody knows why we keep having shows even though nobody goes we keep rolling along playing our dumb little songs hand in hand -- a dumb little band...

Start all over with a brand new groupie? It'll be a while before I'll know where I'll be But when I'm there, then I'm there Try to find me, I'll get one more wish in But there's a strong suspicion Everything will seem a little weak Now that the future ain't what it used to be The future ain't what it used to be If you're not gonna be together with me |

Well, you snatched me from the jaws of death, that's true, and you rescued me with your last breath, that too, but what have you done for me lately? I fell for you when I saw you there, and it's only fair that you fall for me too. For love is this serious game where once you lost your shirt, and even more, kind of a mysterious game where once you get hurt you start believin' more, even more. I was created to fall for you. Now I've paraded it all for you, so start falling when I give the signal. Ready? Go. I fell for you. Don't want to sound too stern but now it's your turn you've got to fall for me too.

So this is goodbye more or less and things have changed a lot I guess, in such a mess, and so out of hand, though I think it went pretty much as you planned-- it was so hazy till my eyes had cleared now I can see better but it still looks weird. Is that still you lying there? Why cant I find you anywhere? I still don't understand this episode or why you led us down that road but I think you knew where it would lead and how something would come over me I still don't know just what it was I guess nobody ever really does know why they do the things they do why did I have to follow you-- Deep deep down, where it isn't safe to be, I beat you there, and now they're coming after me... You always were an angel in my eyes now more than ever the term applies the eyes still see what the soul believes and you look so pretty underneath the leaves and though we part forever now I feel you'll be with me somehow I believe in God you know you're still my angel and I love you so-- Deep deep down, pretty as the scenery you're lying under it but I feel you watching over me... Now I've got to tear myself away because they'll just find me if I stay they wouldn't understand what we'd been through or how I did it all for you all to show you how I cared it was the last thing we ever shared together and I'll cherish the memory and carry a peice of you with me--- Deep deep down, where I'm not supposed to be cause I buried you there, and now they're coming after me...

There's nothing I wouldn't do for you if I could think of anything to do I'm trying to think of more things within my means like maybe I could bore my way into your dreams elaborate gestures that impressed you so you'd want to be mine if I knew what they were I'd do them all the time I'd do anything I could but I can never think of anything that good and I think it's pretty clear that we'll just wind up sitting here so try to be a realist sit down and write me a list of some and I'll make sure that everything gets done we've got some things to finish that some pre-planning won't diminish, much and you know I love it when you take me to the top and then you say don't stop so let's continue order anything on the menu did I mention that the power lies within you? I'd do anything for you but I can never think of anything to do it may sound like empty words to you but if nothing occers to you at least take off your wedding ring I really would do anything for you if I could think of anything to do anything, anything, anything.

I've already wasted half a lifetime or so If I change my mind, how would I know? I need a Dr. Frank-ectomy though And hope it never grows back Please pass the Prozac Now they're closing in Everybody's yelling at me They could take a pill or two themselves There they go again Staring at me, swearing at me Take the whole bottle too as well Time to find out if it's true I think I'm all over you Now's the time But all I do is pace around the room So I'm just waiting for that Prozac moment That Prozac moment to arrive That Prozac moment That Prozac moment to arrive And save my life |

You're probably wondering why I've called you here I think the time has come to make it clear my heart can't make our love bloom and grow while you're kicking it to and fro accusing it of things it never said or stepping on it like a cigarette how can I be the answer to your prayers if I'm always making minor repairs? I've been doing most of those things I'm supposed to, you've been tearing me apart and I can't compete with you you keep doing what you do and I'll keep tapin' up my heart. What we have is difficult to explain it's equal parts of boredom joy and pain it's delicate like an angel's wings based on trust and a couple of other things my heart is young and black and proud and bold you better eat it before it gets cold one more thing I can't overemphasize: it's not to be used as a flotation device. I've been doing some of those things you make fun of you've been laughing way too hard I'll salute your lofty goals while you poke me full of holes but I'll keep tapin' up my heart. I'm not what I used to be mostly cause I refuse to be. I'm the new kid on the the chopping block so take a little bit off the top there's really nothing you can throw my way that I can't ignore and hope it goes away. I know I've done a few of those bad things in lieu of those good things that I should start but we need something to do and it might as well be you so I'll keep tapin' up my heart.

I've been doing nothing in particular I've been figuring out what I was gonna do now somehow the time has gone by and I didn't do the things that I wanted to looking back it seems like I should have known walking down and up and down the avenue wasn't such a smart way to go but it's all I knew how to do and you're gonna say isn't it okay cause you kept on trying and I'm gonna lie and explain how I've been a value giant or I don't care like Pierre waiting for the lion to eat me up while I think about my stupid life. I've been told I spend too much time alone and asked why I never take this jacket off I'm either caught in the headlights or running around like a chicken with its head cut off I recall I once heard a story it might be apocryphal but anyway there's this guy who got so bored that he chopped off his own head well I won't do that but it seems like at some point something should happen there's got to be some sort of redemption or at least some French in Action but there's nothing yet and I can't get no disaffection not even that so let me tell you about my stupid life. Whoa. My stupid life.

I can see that you're discouraged like you think that it's never ever gonna change and maybe I'm to blame there's not a whole lot I can do now, though I should have seen it coming when I saw you go but I want you to know there's nothing wrong with you you just need to follow through on the things you set out to do long ago it sounds odd to come from me and I can fake sincerity as well as anybody can but that's not what I'm doing this time and I don't really know the best way to convey it I'm just gonna say it I believe in you. I think about it so often the little things that I could have done differently if I'd known what they'd be I don't know why it surprised me I should have seen where it was going when you came apart but there's nothing wrong with you you just never made it through all the things that were done to you long ago I hope you realize how you figure in my eyes, and how much worse the world would be if there wasn't anything like you in it and how you're someone well worth knowing I hope you keep on going I believe in you. I know you're lonely and you don't really understand why things haven't workded out as you planned long ago but you will find your way and I'll run into you one day and you'll tell me that you're okay and all about the tremendous things you've done and how you've won the day and where you plan to take it I think you're gonna make it I believe in you.

I guess I should say thanks for having me and now that I've been had what have we got? Something that survives casts a shadow on our lives turns our promises to lies and second thoughts we've had a lot of time to think it over to readjust our expectations even lower I suppose we'll think it over till we think it's over I still think about you all the time. I guess I'll straighten out as everything progresses I guess one day I'll know what I'm supposed to do from now on I have to go on guesses cause I've used up all my promises on you. I wonder why I'm still waiting here trying to turn everything around and piece together how things that seem so silly now once were everything I ever thought about you'd go crazy if you tried to take it all in how far we've come as opposed to how far we've fallen I wonder how long it'll be till we start to call them things we used to think long ago? Whether they are failures or successes one day I'll figure out what I'm supposed to do but till then I'll have to go on guesses cause I've used up all my promises on you.

Once upon a time, life was sweet and everything was fine. Each day was like a triumph of the will, and every night was even better still. Now, suddenly you don't wanna do it anymore. Nothing I could say would change your mind. I watch you walk away, and scream and whine. It was worth a try, though I can't deny, it's a weak reply. But there's never gonna be another way to say goodbye. Once I had a dog. A little puppy dog who was my friend. I almost lost him when he went away, kind of like what's happening today. Let's face it kid, you never were that kind of friend at all. You were never there to catch me when I faltered, or needed to be mind depressed and altered. But still it seems to me, we should wait and see, but you don't agree. And if that's the way you want it well now that's the way it's gonna be. And now there's only one thing left to say, though it's been said before, you won't have Nixon, to kick around anymore.

She's no beauty queen but she doesn't mind being seen with me I may not be the best but I'm the only guy that she can get and with a love like that you know it's got to last and we're gonna stay together as the years go rocketing past we share everything his and hers like all the things that get on our nerves so she's with me and there's nobody waiting in the wings cause we hate all the same things. Now I'm anticipating we'll spend another lovely evening of complaining about life cause we've discovered it's one damn thing after another so don't try to call us we won't answer the phone we hate to go out in public even more than we hate staying at home we'd just hate anything anywhere and anybody who may be there so I'll be here and she'll be near there's nowhere else to be cause we hate all the same things. When the dog bites when the bee stings when you're feeling some of these things: ennui, misanthropy, wetschmerz, and anomie, just think of all the things you hate and things start looking pretty great if there's someone who hates them too and she's with you the whole night through. If you've had a few lucky breaks and you've made all the right mistakes you can be like she and me in a world that swings if you hate all the same things like we hate all the same things.

There was something in the way you said never to call me again and now I know I should have read between the lines back then and there were secrets that you almost kept that were quite sufficient to show but it finally hit me when you left my name off your suicide note I shifted gears I faced my fears I cried some tears I did a lot of heroin it took so long but now I'm moving on now that you are gone. A half-full or half-empty shell I was in a nebulous state a shadow of my former self which wasn't all that great but I've been seeing you around it seems like you're doing all right and I only cry about you now every other night I went astray I lost my way I did some macrime I walked around aimlessly it took so long but now I'm moving on now that you are gone. I know we'll meet again one day it'll be strange and outre and I won't know what to say except for na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na now that you are gone. After all is said and done there's not much to say or to do except for keep on keeping on and start again anew at least the future's in my hands and life is a thing to live for cause now I have another chance to screw it up once more I shifted gears I faced my fears I cried some tears I did a lot of heroin it took so long but now I'm moving on now that you are gone.

I picked her up at the specified time.
I was dressed to the nines, and she looked so blind, in a pink sequin dress, just a bit too tight, and I was thinking this could be the night. At the restaurant things were in full bloom. She said she had to visit the ladies room. It may have been just a visit, but I guess along the way, she decided that she'd extend her stay. Did she ever come back? No she never came back. and the waiter was laughing as I paid the check. We were going to go to the discotech. (Actually at that point, that whole discotech idea, was pretty much off). On my way out, though, I chanced to see, a girl at the bar making eyes at me. So I said to myself, so this could be good. We'll exchange smiles, phone numbers, and maybe even fluids. So I bought her a drink, and I bought her two more, and I asked her for her number as she walked out her door. She said, "555-5555 and I live at number 55 drive." Was it really her number? No, it really was not, and a ... is all I got, when I tried to call it later on. How'd the date end? Badly. How'd the date end? Sadly. It was not a love connection, nosiree. How'd the date end? Terrible. How'd the date end? Unbearable. But that's not all, Chuck, as you will see. I stumbled around 'til I found another bar, which was good because I couldn't find my car. I ordered a scotch and I drank it down, and I did this several times 'til I lost count. They picked me up where I'd fallen down. I was read my rights and brought downtown. I can't remember very much, but I think it's safe to say that this date sucked. How'd the date end? Terrible. How'd the date end? Unbearable. It was the worst thing that you ever saw. How'd the date end? Horrible. How'd the date end? Deplorable. And now I've got a headache the size of Arkansas. So Chuck, I don't care who the audience picked, I'd rather be killed with a big sharp stick. I'll stay on my own, it's my natural state, whether or not I have a date. |

There's a brand new sound that's sweeping the nation, every mall, every radio station, kids go crazy to the driving beat, cars go driving to the crazy street, the girls look tough and the boys look sweet dancing to the crazy beat. The name of this sound: alternative. And that's the way I want to live. Alternative, if you'll turn it on, we'll alternate all night long. Let's dance to an alternative song and alternate all night long. Alternative is here to stay! It will never go away. That's another reason why alternative will never die. Alternative will never go, everybody loves it so, and I think it's safe to say alternative is here to stay! Some people like to rock, some people like to roll, and that was cool in days of old, but all the kids where the action is got to have alternative. I'm in love with an alternative girl, she's not like the other alternative girls: she's pierced and dyed and scarified, she hates Tom Cruise, she loves Anne Rice, we're gonna be an alternative sight when I take her out on Saturday night. Alternative is something more than number 1, 2, 3 and 4. It's 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9-- Alternative is doing fine. Alternative is how we live. We believe in alternative, and I think it's safe to say alternative is here to stay!

I'm bored today, and everything's there to be ignored today, scattered everywhere out on the floor today, and I don't care about you. I lost my job today, which used to be the way I could afford to live to hate another day and now I can't afford to even be bored anymore. It's kind of good to feel bad again, mad again, sad again. I'll be doing that again. I don't have to tell you I do it really well. You said goodbye today, and I'm just here still asking why today, and not another year, I'm gonna cry today, but I don't care about you. Maybe it wasn't bad to do, and you did what you had to do. Maybe I'll believe it too, if I keep saying I don't care about you, today I don't know what I'm gonna do today and there's a lot to get through today, but I don't care about you, today.

Got home from camping last spring,
saw people, places, and things. We barely had arrived, friends asked us to describe the people, places, and every last thing. So we unpacked our adjectives. I unpacked frustrating first, reached in and found the word worst. Then I picked soggy, next I picked foggy, and then I was ready to tell them my tale. 'Cause I'd unpacked my adjectives. Adjectives are words you use to really describe things, handy words to carry around. Days are sunny, or they're rainy. Boys are dumb, or else they're brainy. Adjectives can show you which way. Adjectives are often used to help us compare things, say how thin, how fat, how short, how tall. Girls who are tall get taller, boys who are small get smaller, 'til one is the tallest and one is the smallest of all. We hiked around without care, then we ran into a bear. He was a hairy bear, he was a scary bear, we made a hasty retreat from his lair. And described him with adjectives. Woah boy, that was one big ugly bear. Next time you go on a trip, remember this little tip, The minute you get back, they'll ask you this and that, you can describe people, places and things, simply unpack your adjectives. You can do it with adjectives. Tell about it with adjectives. You can shout it with adjectives. Oh oh oh adjectives. Oh oh oh adjectives. Darn, that's the end. |

She looks pretty good in blue
She's worn it out a lot You look good on paper too When actually you're not She's not looking anymore For someone to feel sorry for So don'cha 'round no more She's got pretty fake eyelashes Slanted plastic glasses Everyone who passes Says she looks beautiful But don't even think about Asking her to dance 'Cause in your sackcloth and ashes You're never gonna have a chance Sackcloth and ashes... She smeared you with her fingerprints Just because she could She's not sorry for her sins As long as she looks good How can she have so much fun Knowing all the things she's done? She's bad She's strong Or maybe she's stupid But she's got pretty party dresses Manic-panic tresses She believes that less is more Where you're concerned But you can only dream about The places that she's been 'Cause in your sackcloth and ashes They're never gonna let you in One day, maybe, you'll be way beyond This silly habit you've put on Tough and strong enough And wrong, and wrong enough For long enough To belong there But 'til that day comes along You'll be sullen and regretful Querulous and fretful Carrying a head full Of evil thoughts And there'll be lots of girls and people Who want to know where you stand But in your sackcloth and ashes You'll never make them understand Sackcloth and ashes Sackcloth and ashes Sackcloth and ashes They're never gonna understand |

it's required by your clothes consistency is everything as everybody knows it's so cold, baby you're losing your hold, baby and you're gonna fold, baby before too long but don't tell me your secret lies in London I already know I can see your secret lies in London everywhere I go There is a sun somewhere extremely far away your tired eyes, reflecting the sky, a drizzly steel grey there's no light in there and there's no sight in there I get right in there, and it's all dark but don't deny your secret lies in London it's not worth your while you can lie back and think of England and miss it by a mile ya na na na na you can't conceal your secret lies in London obvi ous ly not I can feel your secret lies in London deeper than you thought ya na na na na |

Elizabeth,
don't look to me you can be yourself or find some other way to be but time won't wait and even if it does it's unlikely to go back to how it was so my advice is to not think twice: Elizabethorfight stick to your guns it won't be long before surrendering won't be an option anymore so in the end I recommend: Elizabethorfight peace whenever justice will allow peace forever Elizabeth for now if that means eternally fighting for Elizabeth and Liberty or the reverse you could do much worse: Elizabethorfight. |

Everybody says you shouldn't cry
everybody's standing by and everybody's gonna roll their eyes if you ever do everybody says it's not too late and you can still participate you take everybody's bait and everybody laughs at you they'll leave you crying all alone they'll say they wouldn't have if they had only known but you see the reality behind their indulgent stares-- everybody knows you're crying no one ever really cares everybody thinks you're a little slow everyone wants you to know they went through the same thing long ago and it wasn't that hard to do everybody says they sympathize you stand by while they describe someone you don't even recognize that's supposed to look like you but they never can explain how to live with such spectacular pain and when you're at your weakest they advise you to be strong everybody says they've been there everybody must be wrong ooh ooh ooh ooh everybody knows you're crying they send their love and love is loud they feel it's greatly to their credit and they're proud of their compassion, and it's true but it doesn't have a lot to do with you and you can't escape the conclusion though you don't like what it was: everybody says they love you, no one ever really does. ooh ooh ooh ooh everybody knows you're crying everybody knows you're crying everybody knows you're crying |

I was here when the call came through, Jill
and I screened it like I always do, Jill and they hung up on the machine just like you, Jill well, that sounds like one of your stunts, Jill and I'm only gonna say this once, Jill you haven't left a message for me in a couple of months, Jill I'm not blaming you, Jill this is hard to do, Jill but I still don't know why I always feel like crying, crying, crying I'm still having some trouble tying up your loose ends, Jill and I still see life through the same distorted lens, Jill and I think I may have said some things about you in front of some of your friends, Jill well, I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings, Jill but these are not normally people with whom I have dealings, Jill I still spend most of my time in silence alone staring at ceilings, Jill but you know all that, Jill what I'm getting at, Jill is I can't stop not knowing why I never don't feel like crying, crying, crying |

She, shining like a star, like a sun, like a moon
and all that other stuff you know I wanted everything, she gave me everything but everything is never enough what I mean is, she, my kind of fluff. Like a star or a sun or a moon like the surface of a still lagoon like a stainless steel spoon she's shining reach out to turn her on she fills the room and hijinks ensue in dark nights of the soul I don't mind saying that I think I've had one or two tried to tell her, she already knew like an incandescent wish like a silverplate chaffing dish like a Siamese fighting fish she's shining like a blinding brilliant thing like a turned on electric ring like a novel by Stephen King she's shining ooh ah, ooh ooh ooh ah glowing in her jar just like a little piece of star ooh ooh ooh ooh ah like a blue electric shock like a radioactive rock like the hands of a digital clock she's shining like the Thames or the Rhine or the Nile like a luminescent radio dial like a brand new ceramic tile she's shining ooh she's shining, ooh she's shining in this endless night she's my little misguiding light |
