Trash Day in Beverly Hills
All the sad little mama's with their happy little pills They flirt with the lawn boys as they clean out the pools While the Mexican nannies take the children to school So much to be and nothing to do How did it ever end up that way? Trash day in Nashville, Tennessee No one can smell this religion but me I see it in hairstyles of young Christian men, That drink, smoke, and fuck like the world's gonna end Someday will come and we'll all just pretend That it never really happened that way Happen that way Happen that way Happen that way I can tell a lot by the way that you walk And I can hear the confessions in the way you talk And it's all the actions that give yourself away So I still don't talk, don't breathe It'll all be over soon Trash day in Atlanta, GA I can hear the sanitary truck from 2 miles away I've said everything that this town has to say Won't you bring me your waste and let me throw them away Maybe I was wrong to call your heart a spade But I wish it didn't happen that way Happen that way Happen that way Happen that way |

I got my boarding pass, a tank of gas
Then I'm never coming back If I could only get out of the bed in this room You've got the little one who's a lot of fun But your old man, he's a drag So baby, kick him out, pick up the baby and let's go And baby, they don't know what we know So turn the lights down, maybe they'll go Onto another place Get your lips back on my face and let's go Look past the window fan, through the alley cans I can see you changing clothes It's my morning coffee movie everyday You stick your stomach out in the mirror You pat you that wish you had it back I can't find a section of flesh that I would change Baby, you don't know what I know So turn the lights down, maybe they'll go Onto another place I want your lips back on my face and let's go And with just a little luck and a couple bucks We can make a little home Just like the one that I promised to buy when we first met And if I ever lose where we came from I want you to hang me upside down Mama, that's just something we can never forget 'Cause baby, they don't know what we know So turn the lights out, I want to go Back to that starting place The first time your lipstick got on my face and let's go Baby, let's go Baby, let's go Baby, let's go |

I opened up a can of worms
I could see myself hanging onto. It's gonna sting, it's gonna burn I can't win either way. And over time I will just find a way to lose you after all Until then we'll carry on. I took a lot of shots for you Some made my hangovers worse somedays. The movies that you sat me through Were never quite my taste Don't get me wrong I miss the way I used to use you after all But for now, just carry on. We pass a bridge, we made it through You feel different or all things the same. The modulation never do The story is untold. And all I want is to get back to what I'm used to after all Until then I'll carry on |

You got lost, for a while
You've been trying to find a smile You got stood up, then you fell down When you needed, there was no one 'round You loved the previews and hate the movies You scream at the screen, "Something move me!" Before you start to fade away Give me all your fear, throw it all away And think about the good things, no matter what they say We'll take tomorrow, baby, yeah One day at a time You just stare in space You found love but it got erased You're on the road with all the stoplights And you're too afraid to turn the wrong from right You ate your soul and it made ya fat Starve yourself from everything else That makes you completely full So give me all your fear, throw it all away Think about the good things, no matter what they say We'll take tomorrow, baby, yeah One day at a time So you run, so you hide And you watched as they die They all fell, you could fall too Or you could sew your wings and try to fly right through So give me all your fear, throw it all away Think about the good things, no matter what they say We'll take tomorrow, baby, yeah One day at a time One day at a time |

Oh well remember the guy who was a football star
He had it made with the ladies, but he never got far Five years past, now he's gotten kind of fat Working eight days a week at a Laundromat With his momma and his daddy breathing down his neck About everything he does so much it makes him sick So he sits home alone, with the game on TV, As the crowd goes wild he says, "That coulda been me!" Just another day in suburbia It's a beautiful day in suburbia! Best not let it get the best of you Is it everything you thought it would be? Remember playing games at the rich kid's home? His dad owned a bank, while his mom was alone Everyday with the mailman, the trash man, lawn guy Kid didn't look a damn thing like his dad (I knew why) He grew up got a job making eighty grand a year Had a wife and kid all the guys called a queer But his dad never knew, he was too blind to see He said "Guess it kinda ran in the family!" Just another day in suburbia It's a beautiful day in suburbia Best not let it get the best of you Is it everything you thought it would be? Remember the girl, down the street, with the kids That used to come outside, but she never did Cause she was trying to hide the bruises where her old man beat her Cause he hit her in the face with an old space heater (Ow!) Then he'd come home drunk and tried to force sex on her But he didn't see the fourty-four stuffed in the covers So she waited 'till he came, he lie there naked, Before she blew his head off, she told him she'd been faking All along - so long - for everything you done wrong Here's a bullet, go to hell, 'cause its where you belong! Just another day in suburbia It's a beautiful day in suburbia Best not let it get the best of you Is it everything you thought it would be Just another day in suburbia Yeah this is how we're living in suburbia Best not let it get the best of you Is it everything you want it to be No one understands it, no one comprehends it I Guess you had to be there, from the outside looking in So I put my Outkast record on, turn up the volume cause I'm all alone! And scream away (yeaaaah!!) Remember the cutest couple in the world You know he was the punk and she was daddy's little girl And graduation came and she wanted him to stay But he had bigger better dreams waiting out in LA She cried and he cried as the plane flew away She never ever wanted it to end this way Two years later she reads in the news He'd gone on to be a big star but nobody knew Cause he changed up his name but his heart stayed the same Cause every song he wrote was about her he claimed But he never got to tell her cause he died that year From all of the coke, and the pills, and the beer And the whole world cried, but just or one day... Cause sooner or later..the pain goes away! Just another day in suburbia It's a beautiful day in suburbia Best not let it get the best of you Is it everything you thought it would be? Just another day in suburbia Yeah this is how we're living in suburbia Best not let it get the best of you Is it everything you want it to be.. |

I wrote this down to make it sing just like a song
A little part of me is hating where I've gone The living room disheveled, dishes piled up high Your naked silhouette contrasting in the light It's you... It's you... Pull off with guilt from a confusing kiss goodnight I drive with a cell phone burning as you cry yourself to sleep all night This parking lot is my best friend as it holds me while I stare I can see my breath, I can taste your shoulder, it's something in the air It's you... It's you... This song is just a stripped down version give or take a verse Wanna spare us all the details if it only makes things worse Oh... Oh... Oh... Ah... |

Can you please remind me how you feel.
This emptiness is real. And I can't bear the thought of it Can you please remind me how to smile? I lost track after awhile. Is happiness so hard to get Is it me or is this over? As I got sober I watched you fade away. Is it me or is this ending? As I was pretending I watched you fade away. I didn't know that time could move so slow. When you've got nowhere to go. The silence is so deafening. Wakin' up, on the wrong side of your mind. How could I have been so blind? To see I'm losing everything. Is it me or is this over? As I got sober I watched you fade away. Is it me or is this ending? As I was pretending. I watched you fade away. Sooner or later we gotta stop this elevator. You go your way and I'll go mine. I'm sure that I'll be fine. Is it me or is this over? As I got sober I watched you fade away. Is it me or is this ending? As I was pretending I watched you fade away... Sober...cause I got sober Cause I got sober.... I watched you fade. |

Do you remember when we met?
Liquor drinks and cigarettes All the boys were taking bets Credit cards, so in debt Bought drinks from you at the bar Poured them out behind my car So I could come back where you are And order from you again And again I'll be your open tap You'll be my favorite sin You're such a pretty melody I'm just a tattooed tragedy Oh baby we don't have to be Like the rest of them What time can we get out of here? I got some words you need to hear I really wanna make it clear I don't do this everywhere How do I make this not sound cheap? I wanna show you where I sleep Keep you there a couple weeks Make you come again And again I'll be your waste of time You'll be my happy end You're such a pretty melody I'm just another tattooed tragedy Oh baby we don't have to be Like the rest of them It's anything but hard to see I want all of you all over me There's not a single part of me That won't ever let you... You're such a pretty melody I'm just another tattooed tragedy Oh baby we don't have to be Like the rest of them It's anything but hard to see I want all of you all over me There's not a single part of me That won't ever let you go. |

This much is true, so here's a finger let me say it There's the right way, then there's my way There's a highway, if you don't like it you can take it So just talk away, I don't hear a word you say I'll be my way, if you don't like it you can take it You got the ultimate song, but you're fuckin' up the words And you're fallin' from the bridge that goes straight into the verse.

As I go insane. The sun shines all around me, on the world, and everybody with somebody, while I'm in the rain. 'Cause it's you that can break me and keep me on my back. 'Cause it's you that can save me from falling into the black. The streetlights flash in tempo with my heart that's poundin' although I, haven't had a heart for days. If I could just be honest, get my feelings off my chest, and on your mind I could find the way. 'Cause it's you that can break me and keep me on my back. 'Cause it's you that can save me from falling into the black. Hold me and tell me that everything's gonna be all right. And I'll tell you that everything's gonna be alright. 'Cause it's you that can break me and keep me on my back. 'Cause it's you that can save me from falling into the black. you that can break me and keep me on my back.

Into your eyes of blue, yeah I could barely take my mind off you So you set it, then you let it, slowly take the life from you Getting so high from the fumes, of a burned out so-called you And I feel so far away from close to you and maybe... We could try to find a way to walk right through The plastic wall between my heart and you You were faking, I'd mistaken, you for someone I once knew Into the ring I flew, like a wrestler falls on cue Can you show me? Please show me. why it all went down in flames Was it 'cause I made it through, and you were just too fucked up to? And I feel so far away from close to you, and maybe... We could finally find a way to walk right through, the plastic wall between my heart and you. Head is stinging, phone is ringing Words just burnin' right on my tongue Please put up the magazine I'm burning up like gasoline I'm all alone on the phone So baby won't you please pick up? (Won't you please pick up?) I was set up, from the get-up Won't you please pick up the phone? I feel so far away from close to you, and baby All I wanted was to see you walk right through and I feel so far away from close to you and baby we can finally find a way to walk right through, the plastic wall between my heart and.. between my heart and you. |

Her hair is like a crow's nest, she's got glitter in her eye
Her smile is like a jack-o'-lantern trying not to cry She's been living, been living pretty hard Since her old man up and died a year ago And I see her every morning while she's walking to the check She holds her head like she's got something heavy hanging 'round her neck Puts some money in her purse And hides somewhere he won't expect before she goes Don't you think someone should take you home? Don't you think someone should take you home? Well, she stole more than a little from her folks in Cartersville With that wrong foot in that right boot left a lot of room to fill With one foot on the platform and a lot of time to kill They shoulda' known Don't you think someone should take you home? Don't you think someone should take you home? Well, I haven't seen her lately, guess I just assumed the worst But I think I kinda miss her standing there with her lips pursed First thing in the morning eaning up against the church Like it's your own Don't you think someone should take you home? Don't you think someone should take you home? Don't you think someone should take you home? |

Little Jewish princess, never recognized
Replaced the Star of David for the ones in your eyes So you popped a vicodine and ran away from everyone And everything you thought you knew Hangin' by the pool with the leisure dudes Who never have a job, but they got the attitudes The clothes, and the shoes, and a disease or two, And every head turns on cue When she flies like a ballerina babe strung up so high. Everybody have you seen her? The side no one knows, she shows on video She's a San Fernando sex star and she's fine Telephone screaming on the bathroom floor Momma tryin' to call ya since July 4 Erase the message along with the life Of everything ya knew before. Life is pretty good with your wood grain walls Lime green carpet, and your meth lab stall Mattress full of money and five locks on the door As she falls to the floor From tryin' to fly, like a ballerina babe Strung up so high, everybody have you seen her? The side no one knows, she screams on video She's a San Fernando sex star and she's fine East coast transplant now in California Can ya feel the side effects of finally leaving Georgia? Nothing you can do about it, Daddy tried to warn ya Allowance cut off, blue jean cutoffs Feelin' like a cut out paper whore When she flies like a ballerina babe Strung out so high, everybody have you seen her? The side no one knows, she screams on video She's San Fernando sex star Where are you? Now, Where are you? Now, Where are you? San Fernando sex star Now, Where are you? San Fernando sex star |

I took a shot of morphine just to smell the fear in my heart
and I felt the rush of hesitence, scared to commit from the start So I kissed a man in reno just to watch him puke Now I got more issues than just trying to forget about you I spent half of that whole day sober And the other half dazed and confused And what little bit left just trying to forget about you I saw you at the galley, he was working his way up your skirt He was buying all the rounds, baby, but you're gonna pay for dessert So I pissed in his gas tank while you were at his place Then I siphoned it back out and went upstairs to spit it back in his face I spent the half of that first week healthy And the other rid with the flu And what little bit left just trying to forget about you Six drinks, two deep at a party for a friend of a friend My mouth was moving like a muscle but my heart dead set on sin So I stumbled to the bathroom with who anyone who'd come The only girl that did was married to the sherriff's son Now I'm handcuffed to the toilet half naked with my mouth on his gun I spent the half of that year in prison The other half black and blue And what little bit left trying to forget about you We spent half of my life together Spent the other half coming unglued And what little time I got left trying to forget about you |

Sunshine, you heal as much as you hurt
With regret in my veins and blood on my shirt Sure must have had myself a personal best It takes filling my lungs up with smoke To get things off my chest Now, I'm crossing the border Wasted again With a number From a Canadian ten Oh Mother, oh Mother why must you complain I grew up alright so don't be ashamed My mouth has been cleaner And I may have lost all my faith Til I believe in myself I can't give my conscience away And you're home with the dishes And I'm out with my friends Placing bets With a Canadian ten And North of the border A sin is a sin When you pay With a Canadian ten I've searched for a reason to not search for you I feel like there's no place I haven't been through I told myself 'don't fall in love if you don't know their name' But my eyes are straight wired to my heart And bypass my brain Sometimes I'm forgetful So I'll start at the end And call the number On this Canadian ten And call the number On this Canadian ten |

Always know the road you're riding on
Always know the words to your baby's song Try to make the most of Friday nights when they come Maybe turn a stranger to a friend Never break a heart that's on the mend Never let the romance ever end like I've done Never judge a color of a skin Never judge a person by their kin Never follow leaders that begin behind some wall Always help your mom across the street Always wash your hands when you wanna eat Always keep em dirty enough to see where you came from And its OK to cry If you feel it comin on It'll let you know you're human in the end All these things will mean more when I'm gone Just be good until then Try to see the best inside the bad No matter how many drinks you had Never make a promise you'll regret come sunrise Try to rarely ever oversleep Always keep your ego at your feet Maybe try to practice what you preach once in a while It's OK to cry If you feel it comin on It'll let you know you're human in the end All these things will mean more when I'm gone Just be good until then Everybody loves a hero Not so much when they fall short so Try to keep your cape on underneath You don't have to try so hard To be the best. Just know you are And that's all that'll matter to me And its OK to cry If you feel it comin on It'll let you know you're human in the end All these things will mean more when I'm gone Just be good until then |

She drives a black Iroc with hot pink leather
Got a good butt but can't remember whether She's a good girl or she's bad Or count the sex she's had she Comes home late with grocery sacks and Brothers in his hat doin' Michael Jackson Doesn't know her dad, since he dropped her on her head And if there's one think I can say Is she takes all my breath away She doesn't know my name She doesn't know her name Every time that I call, she can't remember at all That's the last I fall for Alicia Amnesia She got a summer job at the mall in town Sellin' shiny clothes to the bands in town Who are trying to be so cool And they always make her drool Takes all I have to say hey When she's cleaning out the manic panic hair dye trays And I can always bet, She'll ask me if we've met If there's one thing I can say Every time she walks away She doesn't know my name She doesn't know her name Every time that I call, she can't remember at all That's the last I fall for Alicia Amnesia |
