Dan Regan

She calls out to the man on the street
sir, can you help me?
Its cold and Ive nowhere to sleep,
Is there somewhere you can tell me?

He walks on, doesn't look back
He pretends he can't hear her
Starts to whistle as he crosses the street
Seems embarrassed to be there

[Chorus]
Oh think twice, cause its another day for
You and me in paradise
Oh think twice, cause its another day for you,
You and me in paradise

Just think about it
Think about it
Just think about it

She calls out to the man on the street
He can see shes been crying
Shes got blisters on the soles of her feet
She can't walk but shes trying

[Chorus]

Oh lord, is there nothing more anybody else can do
Oh lord, there must be something you can say

You can tell from the lines on her face
You can see that she's been there
Probably been moved on from every place
Cause she didn't fit in there

[Chorus: x2]

Just think about it
Just think about it
Think about it
Just think about it

Got the telephone in my hand
Gonna call you up tonight
Planned every word I'll say
I'm gonna do it right.

Maybe I'll wait a little longer
Maybe I'm not ready yet
Where did I put that number?
How could I ever, ever forget?

I try but I hang up, every time
To call you girl and make you mine
If you pick it up I'll have it made
I'm gonna call you now,
I wont be afraid

Got the telephone in my hand
Cord around my neck.
But I'm not really ready to die, maybe I'll give it one more try
Or maybe I'll call tomorrow, she probably wont be home
Maybe I like sitting here
Maybe I like being all alone

Everything will be all right
I won't see you tonight
Everything will be all right
I know it's not the end of the world, it's just another, little girl

I try but I hang up every time
To call you girl and make you mine
Can't leave a message
Don't know what to say, I don't wanna talk to you anyway.

I've got the brains
You're the body
And you're in my sights
I've a got a new set of problems
How to get you alone tonight
My head keeps revolving
I work so hard just to get a bite

[Chorus]
Cannibal
Cannibal
Cannibal, Cannibal, Cannibal
Cannibal, oh, oh
Cannibal

Back to the game
To the subject
Sustenance is at stake
There's no accounting for taste
You've got yours, I'll get mine
I'll love you in my own way
And everything will be just fine

[Chorus]

You've got a new set of problems
It's not your fault this time
Don't take this personally

Cannibal, oh, oh
Cannibal, oh, oh

[Chorus]

Everybody's druuuunk
Everybody's drunk tonight
Everybody's druuuunk
Everybody's drunk tonight
Everybody's druuuunk
Everybody's drunk in here

Tonight's the night
We're gonna get plastered
Pissed off
Maybe even get laid, too
Booze on your breath
Always makes girls horny
So come on boys, let's
CHUG A FEW!

Everybody's druuuunk
Everybody's drunk tonight
Everybody's druuuunk
Everybody's drunk, oh yeah

People pouring
In the front door
Most of them
I've never seen in my life
I hear the sound of
Windows breaking
Who just lit the
Couch on fire?!

Everybody's druuuunk
Everybody's drunk tonight
Everybody's druuuunk
Everybody's drunk tonight!

And if you're coming here...
Don't forget to have
Yourself a beer!

There's two girls
Throwin' up in the bathroom
A good friend holds your head back
When you puke
Tonight's the night
So grab your whatever
Lift your something
Here's a toast to you!

WE'RE ALL GONNA GET DRUNK!
OH! WE'RE ALL GONNA GET DRUNK!
OH WAIT WE'RE ALREADY...
DRUUUUUNK!

Everybody's druuuunk
Everybody's drunk tonight
Everybody's druuuunk
Everybody's drunk, hoorah!

Fa la la la laaa la la!
(<i>[Scott:]</i> Uh, actually, I'm not drunk. At all. No. I've gotta drive all these people home. Have
a good time...assholes.)

(<i>[Dan:]</i> Hey! Lemme yell at your face! Cause I love ya! Lemme yell at your face!)

(<i>[Aaron:]</i> Say, I don't feel so good...)
(Get 'im a trash can!)
(<i>[Aaron:]</i> -urp- There is no trash can!)

Hey, hey everybody! Look who's on TV, look who just got famous
don't you know it should have been me...
I'm not really bitter, I'm not really mad, I love to see other people
get everything I ever wanted to have,
I don't really care, how big they get... I hate you, fuck you
leave me alone! Why cant I be cool like them?
I used to have a girlfriend, I treated her so bad, she went out and
found another lead singer, maybe she just likes guys in bands.
I give up on everything, all my dreams are dead, maybe I'll get a
shotgun, and try to blow her right out of my head... everybody says,
"How come you ain't made it yet?" I hate you, fuck you, leave me
alone! Why can't I get my girl back?
I knew you wouldn't understand, just what I'm tryin' to do, cause you're
not me, and I'm so glad that I am not you...
I know it's my problem, there's nothing I can do, but I don't think
there is no reason, I don't think there's no excuse for you...
well I've learned my lesson, hope you've learned it to, and if
they're gonna go and do it to me well I guess I'm gonna have to
go and do it to you... I don't really care, how much you cry...
IhateyoufuckyouleavemealoneIhateyoufuckyouleavemealone!!!
why can't anything go my way?

Let me put my finger in your nose
Whoa, its not funny, no no no no
I can you you looking down her shirt
I can see you lifting up her skirt
Only gonna tell you once, only gonna tell you once

You better stay away from my girlfriend
You better stay away from her
I'm just giving warning so you get no broken bones
You better leave my girl alone

Well I bet you can understand what I say
Whoa, I'm really just playing
I can see you looking down her shirt
I can see you lifting up her skirt
Only gonna tell you twice, ask you really really nice

You better stay away from my girlfriend
You better stay away from her
I'm just giving warning so you get no broken bones
You better leave my girl alone

Let me break your neck and crush your skull
Whoa, you never listen, no no no no
I can see you looking down her shirt
I can see you lifting up her skirt
Ive seen too much of you
I cant take much more of this

You better stay away from my girlfriend
You better stay away from her
I'm just giving warning so you get no broken bones
You better leave my girl alone

You say, I do everything the wrong way
Why don't I do it your way
Then maybe someday
I'll be just like you

But I say, I'm gonna do it my way
The "I might fail but I'll try" way
Well that's been done but it's ok
I'll do what I wanna do

Cause' I don't want
To live your dream,
I don't want to live your dream

No way, I'll take my chances this time
I've gotta go and live life
And I won't let you try and take mine
I just won't let you

Cause' I don't want
To live your dream,
I don't want to live your dream
I won't change what I believe
I won't change what I believe

So try to hold me if you want
Try to control me if you want
But you won't keep me down
I'm not your clown
I've got to find my own way now
So try to hold me if you want

But I say, I'm gonna do it my way
The "I might fail but I'll try" way
Well that's been done but it's ok
I'll do what I wanna do

Cause' I don't want
To live your dream,
I don't want to live your dream
I won't change what I believe
I won't change what I believe

You say, I do everything the wrong way

I couldnt do it
So i asked for a helping hand
To get me through it
But i guess it wasnt in your plan
Oh maybe you were

Just too busy to make time for me
I always put you first
Expected me to figure out things
But they all kept getting worse
When i think about the way you let me down
I wonder if im supposed to count on you

How could you ignore me?!

My imaginary friend didnt come through in the end
So now i have to find a real one
Didnt answer when i called
Well i guess its just beacause
He was never man at all

I cant believe it
Now that im looking back
Why didnt i see it?!
Well i guess i didnt even ask

While you were never
Ever in the places i would go
You never showed yourself
All those heatr-felt conversations
Were with me and no one else
When i called your name
You never answered am i insane?
If you saw me suffering

How could you ignore me?!

My imaginary friend didnt come through in the end
So now i have to find a real one
Didnt answer when i called
Well i guess its just because
He was never there at all

Its not hard to let him go
I dont know why i ever loved him so

Maybe there is something wrong with me
I dont see what they see
Used to fold my hands and close my eyes
And think you were with me
Now theres something wrong
It doesnt seem to make much sense
I just feel stupid now

How could i beleive it?!

My imaginary friend didnt come through in the end
So now i have to find a real one
Didnt answer when i called
Wel i guess its just because
He was never there at all
My imaginary friend wooh yeah (now i have to find a real one)
Didnt come through in the end wooh no (cos he was never there at all)
He was never there at all

Mama,

Baby Sis.

Cousins
All about this.

Coming to you now,
From the Money Cow,
Living large in space.

Take your wallet out,
All the Dingos Shout,
"We'll eat your baby Mate!"

I'm upsetting you,
But I'm getting through,
I'm just sick of the same old something.
And you want me to stay but I am out the door.

Baking a cake!

We just came to party down!
Killing every scene around!
We just came to party hardy hardy hardy hardy!

Who ho ho!
Oh oh oh!

She fell down the stairs,
Snakes eat Baby Bears,
Sharks are coming now.

Tearing off my flesh,
Are you getting fresh?
Slap me in the plough.

We like popsicles,
We have lost control,
I can't run 'cause i'm in slow motion.
The mechanical bulls are melting in the snow.

Flipper hurray!

We just came to party down,
Whee-ha!
Killing every scene around!
We just came to party hardy hardy hardy hardy.

We won't let you down,
We won't let you down.

We Just Need To Party Down!

Baking a cake!

We just came to party down,
Ah yeah, party down.
Killing every scene around.
We just came to party hardy hardy hardy hardy hardy!

Please don't tell her I have a girlfriend
Please don't tell her I have a girlfriend
Cause it's so hard
Can't even pretend
That I only want to be her friend

Well I don't deserve it
You know that it's true
But she said that she would
And you know I would to
Oh-oh
What am I gonna' do?

Please don't tell her I have a girlfriend
Please don't tell her I have a girlfriend
Cause it's so hard
Can't even pretend
That I only want to be her friend

Well I know that actions speak louder than words
And thinking is bad
But doing's much worse
Oh-oh
But I'm so perverse

Please don't tell her I have a girlfriend
Please don't tell her I have a girlfriend
Cause it's so hard
Can't even pretend
I only want to be her friend

Well I know I can keep a secret
I know I can keep a secret
Can you keep my secret?

Oh please don't tell her
That I have a girlfriend
Cause it's so hard
I can't even pretend

Please don't tell her I have a girlfriend
Please don't tell her I have a girlfriend
Cause it's so hard
Can't even pretend
That I only want to be her friend

Slow down,
You got to slow down and
Take it easy

Slow down,
You got to slow down and
Take it easy Oh Yeah

Well you've been racing around and your bloods flowing fast and your heart starts to pound
Yeah you've been shaking the trees but no answers fall out just birds nests and leaves
You told that son of a bitch to get out of this place or you'd punch in his face
You threw the telephone down when the bad news came and then it stuck around

You've got to make it stop
Find a way to make that blood pressure drop, so

Slow down,
You got to slow down and
Take it easy, Oh Yeah

There will be times in your life when the roof falls in and the bed bugs bite
Those sweet dreams you heard about well you slept right through them what's that about
Cause of that snake in the grass well you never had such a pain in the ass
Yeah you tried speaking your mind but they got you convinced that its empty inside

You've got to make it stop
Find a way to make that blood pressure drop, so

Slow down,
You got to slow down and
Take it easy

Slow down,
You got to slow down and
Take it easy, Oh Yeah

You've got to make it stop
Find a way to make that blood pressure drop, so

Slow down,
You got to slow down and
Take it easy

Slow down,
You got to slow down and
Take it easy, Slow

Slow down,
You got to slow down and
Take it easy, Oh Yeah

Take it easy oh yeah!

When did you quit pulling all of the stops for me
And when did your one hundred and ten per-cent
Become under fifty
There you are phoning it in
Going through the motions with an artificial grin
You say that you're getting better
You say that you're getting better

You say you're becoming a better person
One that isn't so lame
You say you're becoming a better person
But I still feel the same

It's the new, it's the new, new version of you
It's the new, it's the new, new version of you
It's the new, it's the new, new version of you
If there's one thing I'd like to do
It's kill the new version of you

When did you start wearing all of those clothes to be cool
And when did you start using all that slang?
I can't understand you
I bet you'd forget to say "I love you"
If the teleprompter hadn't told you
You say that you're getting better
You say that you're getting better

You say you're becoming a better person
One that isn't so lame
You say you're becoming a better person
But I still feel the same

It's the new, it's the new, new version of you
It's the new, it's the new, new version of you
It's the new, it's the new, new version of you
If there's one thing I'd like to do
It's kill the new version of you

Who are you?
I don't know now
You got me wondering I wonder
How you got to be so different now

You say you're becoming a better person
One that isn't so lame
You say you're becoming a better person
But I still feel the same
I still feel the same

It's the new, it's the new, new version of you
It's the new, it's the new, new version of you
It's the new, it's the new, new version of you
If there's one thing I'd like to do
It's kill the new version of you

Sky is falling
It's alright, it's alright
I'll be fine
Now I'm falling
It's alright, it's alright
Gonna look like I'm flying

We'll they're screaming at my windows
They've got axes in their hands
They're chopping down the back door
Of my wonderin' promise land
They're begging me to save the world
They're dealing at my feet
And I'll tell em' that the anti-Christ
Lives just across the street

Sky is falling
It's alright, it's alright
I'll be fine
Now I'm falling
It's alright, it's alright
Gonna look like I'm flying

Oh my heart it is an open sword
It never seemed to dry
And a thousand words
Just got me bloody fingers
And I wish that I could cry
And she only stopped that laughing
Long enough to dry a tear
I wish that I was some place else
But I found I'm always here

Sky is falling
It's alright, it's alright
I'll be fine
Now I'm falling
It's alright, it's alright
Gonna look like I'm flying

Sky is falling
It's alright, it's alright
I'll be fine
Now I'm falling
It's alright, it's alright
Gonna look like I'm flying

Well I've got no time to argue
And I got no time to spare
The world is burning down at night
And she don't really care
I would give her everything
But I tell you it's a shame
Cause' she is all I think about
And I just forgot her name

Going back to the way
Going back to the way
That it used to be
When things were much better
Going back to the way
Going back to the way
That it used to be
When we were together

It's been so hard for me
To take all the things that come my way
It's been so hard but know I say
We are

Going back to the way
Going back to the way
That it used to be
When things were much better
Going back to the way
Going back to the way
That it used to be
When we were together

I've been alone too long
There's no one else
I'd rather see
Nothing's more right
Than you and me
So we're

Going back to the way
Going back to the way
That it used to be
When things were much better
Going back to the way
Going back to the way
That it used to be
When we were together

Going back to the way
Going back to the way
That it used to be
When things were much better
Going back to the way
Going back to the way
That it used to be
When we were together

There's a little girl
on my mind
all the time
there's always one,
look what she's done

She makes me look at her thighs
you know
I sure hate to lie
but what can I tell her you know it's so
beautiful
man how come all girls think there fat?

[Chorus]
Hey hey hey she's so pretty,
Hey hey hey my friend,
hey hey hey I feel stupid
again.

She said "It's all right,
come over tonight,
my moms not home,
I'm all alone!"
She took me back to her house,
she pushed me down
on the couch,
she said "now its all right,
were gonna be good friends
cause that kissin' only leads to the end."

[Chorus: x2]

Hey hey hey she's so pretty,
Hey hey hey my friend.
Hey hey hey I feel stupid

Will the revolution come?
Well, that's what they all say
Will the revolution come?
Well then that will be the day
Will the revolution come?
Then put your fist in the air
Will the revolution come?
You better get out of your chair

Cause we won't wise up so how can we rise up
Tired of being enslaved
Will the revolution come?
Will anything change?

Will the revolution come?
Well I heard that before
Will the revolution come?
Well I'll try not to act too bored

Cause each generation's mess is bigger
Than the one before it has made
Will the revolution come?
Can we be saved?

Ooo ooo

Cause we won't wise up so how can we rise up
Tired of being enslaved
Will the revolution come?
Will anything change?

Will the revolution come?
You better not run and hide
Will the revolution come?
You gotta stand outside

Because the only place that is in our minds
The only change to our apathy
Will the revolution come?
Just wait and see

She called me late last night to say she loved me so
It didn't matter anymore but I say she never cared
And that she never will I'd do it all again
I guess I'll have to wait until then
If I get drunk well I'll pass out
On the floor now baby
You won't bother me no more
If you're drinkin' well you know
That you're my friend and I say
I think I'll have myself a beer.

She called me late last night to say she loved me,
So..? but I guess he changed her mind.
Well I should have known it wouldn't be
All right, but I can't live without her
So I won't even try

Maybe some day, I'll think of what to say.
Maybe next time I'll remember what to do,
She looks like heaven, maybe this is hell,
Said she'd do it all again, she'd promise not to tell!

If I get drunk well, I'll pass out
On the floor now baby
You won't bother me no more
(and she said)

It's OK boy cause you know
We'll be good friends
And I say, I think I'll have myself a beer.

You say you’re down,
You can’t loose that frown,
Life sucks!
What else is new?
That’s tough!
There’s not much you can do,
You’re not the only one,
Not havin’ any fun,

I’ve got a funny feelin’,
We’re all born to lose,
And I’ve got a funny feeling,
That this life ain’t worth livin’...through,

I’ve been depressed,
And I get so stressed,
Life sucks!
I don’t wonder why,
That’s tough!
I just keep on tryin’,
So I won’t be the one
Not havin’ any fun,

I’ve got a funny feelin’,
We’re all born to lose,
And I’ve got a funny feeling,
That this life ain’t worth livin’...through,

I’m not givin’ up yet,
That’s not the end of me,
But it’s not goin’ to be all right,
You’ll see, you’ll see!
...

I’ve got a funny feelin’,
We’re all born to lose,
And I’ve got a funny feeling,
That this life ain’t worth livin’,
I’ve got a funny feelin’,
We’re all born to lose,
And I've got a funny feeling
That this life ain’t worth livin’,
I’ve got a funny feelin',
[I’ve got a funny feelin’]
I’ve got a funny feelin’,
[I’ve got a funny feelin’]
I’ve got a funny feelin’,
[I’ve got a funny feelin’]
I’ve got a funny feelin’,
Cheer up.

Don't start a band
No body wants to hear no body wants to hear
Nobody understands
Don't start a band
You'll be so disappointed that it was nothing like you planned
Don't start a band
Oh yea yea yea

I hate to ruin the magic
I hate to kill the dream
But once you've been behind the scenes then you'll know just what I mean
You might think that's its cool to get up on stage
And play rock and roll from your heart and soul
But no one shows up and your songs all suck
And there's no applause and no flying bras
No girls will scream for you and no ones gonna sing along with you

Don't start a band
No body wants to hear nobody understands
Don't start a band
You will be so damn terrible they'll all think your shitty
Don't start a band
Oh yea yea yea
'cause you wont get paid
And you won't get laid

And even if you make it
All the way to MTV
I don't think you could take it
All the bullshit and the greed
Everyone is so fake when they shake you hand
And they kiss your ass 'cause then they get cash
And the business end will turn every friend
To an enemy oh you will see

They'll turn their their backs and they'll be gone
Faster than can say 'what did I do wrong'

Don't start a band
No body really cares nobody understands
Don't Start a Band
You will sign your lives away and then you'll be working for the man
Don't start a band oh yea yea yea

Your message will get lost
You'll get double crossed

And if you that the joy of playing
Will keep you going through the years
Wait till you poor and frustrated
And the fun just disappears
Nobody cares what you have to say
And noes gonna listen anyways

Rock and roll will bring you down
And it will kick you while your on the ground

Don't start a band
Don't even try you will regret it yea
Don't start a band
You'll be so disappointed that it was nothing like you planned
Don't start a band
Oh yea yea yea

So just give up now
I'll show you how

Don't start a Band <i>[x4]</i>

Fourteen minutes and fifty-nine seconds into our fifteen minutes of fame
When the luck runs out, I won't wonder who's to blame
Because nobody said they had a guaranteed way
to win the hearts of the public who are easily swayed
And just this time last year, I thought we had it made

We were One Hit Wonderful
Livin' the life, playin' the role
We were One Hit Wonderful
Well, it can't last long
They don't love you
They just love that one song

Well, things don't last long in life; that's how it goes
They'll smile and applaud, then turn up their nose
Things will shrink as quickly as they've grown
But it's perfectly normal for us to ask why
The company wasn't untrue, they just didn't try
And a new career is born. It will eventually die

We were One Hit Wonderful
Livin' the life, playin' the role
We were One Hit Wonderful
Well, it can't last long
They don't love you
They just love that one song
That one song...
That one song

So many lovely melodies
So many messages to convey
But they don't care about any of these
"Play that one damn song!" is what they say

We were One Hit Wonderful
Livin' the life, playin' the role
We were One Hit Wonderful
Well, it can't last long
They don't love you
Oh, no!
We were One Hit Wonderful
Livin' the life, playin' the role
We were One Hit Wonderful
Well, it can't last long
They don't love you
They just love that one song

Well I know you can't work in fast food all your life
But don't sign that paper tonight
She said but it's too late.

I don't remember what I read
Don't remember what they said
Guess it doesn't matter
Guess it doesn't matter anymore

You're gonna go to the record store
You're gonna give'em all your money

I'm singin' too high tonight, I'm gonna lose my voice
I heard her on the radio don't want to sing along, but I've got no choice

She used to be my girl but now she's famous (she's famous now)
She used to be my girl but now she is famous (she's famous now)
She was just so sweet and now they're fallin' at her feet
She used to be my girl but now she's-

I eat the muscle and she eats the leaves
High cholesterol and heart disease yea
You'll never touch the way that I feel
Just for the record she got the deal
I don't want to hear it
I'm saying goodbye tonight, I just can't stand the noise

She's signin' autographs, don't want to say I know her but I've got no choice
She used to be my girl but now she's famous (she's famous now)

You called me up last night in tears and said you missed me after all these years
But I’ve been waiting here so long, I’ve gotten over it since you've been gone
You called me up last night again and said you're finished with your new boyfriend
Asked if you could come back home- so sorry that you left me all alone

You say you love me, you love me again but if you love me- where have you been?
You say you need me more than anyone else well go to hell, where have you been?
You showed up at my door today and said my friend why do you push me away
Life with him was just so dull and what we had was something wonderful

You say you love me, you love me again but if you love me- where have you been?
You say you need me more than anyone else well go to hell- where have you been?
I said you wish! I don't need this! What makes you think I’d ever want you again?
Yeah right! As if! What makes you think I'd ever want you again?

I wrote this song about you
I wrote this song about you
Just to let you know that I hate your guts
And I think you suck
I wrote this song about you
I wrote this song about you
Just to let you know that I hate your guts
And I think you suck

I hate the way you look
(You make me sick)
I hate the way you talk
(I wanna punch you in the face)
I can't stand you at all
(You drive me insane)
Why won't you go away?

I wrote this song about you
I wrote this song about you
Just to let you know that I hate your guts
And I think you suck

This is your song
Congratulations
You're the inspiration
I hate you so much
That I wrote this song
Congratulations
You're immortalized
I hate so much
I hope you fuckin' die

She called me late last night to say she loved me so
It didn't matter anymore but I say she never cared
And that she never will I'd do it all again
I guess I'll have to wait until then
If I get drunk well I'll pass out
On the floor now baby
You won't bother me no more
If you're drinkin' well you know
That you're my friend and I say
I think I'll have myself a beer.

She called me late last night to say she loved me,
So..? but I guess he changed her mind.
Well I should have known it wouldn't be
All right, but I can't live without her
So I won't even try

Maybe some day, I'll think of what to say.
Maybe next time I'll remember what to do,
She looks like heaven, maybe this is hell,
Said she'd do it all again, she'd promise not to tell!

If I get drunk well, I'll pass out
On the floor now baby
You won't bother me no more
(and she said)

It's OK boy cause you know
We'll be good friends
And I say, I think I'll have myself a beer.

Don't start a band
No body wants to hear no body wants to hear
Nobody understands
Don't start a band
You'll be so disappointed that it was nothing like you planned
Don't start a band
Oh yea yea yea

I hate to ruin the magic
I hate to kill the dream
But once you've been behind the scenes then you'll know just what I mean
You might think that's its cool to get up on stage
And play rock and roll from your heart and soul
But no one shows up and your songs all suck
And there's no applause and no flying bras
No girls will scream for you and no ones gonna sing along with you

Don't start a band
No body wants to hear nobody understands
Don't start a band
You will be so damn terrible they'll all think your shitty
Don't start a band
Oh yea yea yea
'cause you wont get paid
And you won't get laid

And even if you make it
All the way to MTV
I don't think you could take it
All the bullshit and the greed
Everyone is so fake when they shake you hand
And they kiss your ass 'cause then they get cash
And the business end will turn every friend
To an enemy oh you will see

They'll turn their their backs and they'll be gone
Faster than can say 'what did I do wrong'

Don't start a band
No body really cares nobody understands
Don't Start a Band
You will sign your lives away and then you'll be working for the man
Don't start a band oh yea yea yea

Your message will get lost
You'll get double crossed

And if you that the joy of playing
Will keep you going through the years
Wait till you poor and frustrated
And the fun just disappears
Nobody cares what you have to say
And noes gonna listen anyways

Rock and roll will bring you down
And it will kick you while your on the ground

Don't start a band
Don't even try you will regret it yea
Don't start a band
You'll be so disappointed that it was nothing like you planned
Don't start a band
Oh yea yea yea

So just give up now
I'll show you how

Don't start a Band <i>[x4]</i>

she told me
that I was lame
with her middle finger in my face
wont waste her time with such a loser
so now I wallow in regret
wanna do something right but I haven't yet
why do my endeavors end up in failure

I think I'll go out drinkin'
drinkin' all night long
cuz if I go out drinkin'
then I can stop thinkin'
bout how the world done me wrong

I guess I shouldn't feel so bad
ain't got much reason to feel so sad
'cept that I'm poor untalented and ugly
I know its like they always say
good times and bad will come our way
but theres only one thing that'll make this easier

I think I'll go out drinkin'
drinkin' all night long
cuz if I go out drinkin'
then I can stop thinkin'
bout how the world done me wrong

so wrong
I sing this song and nobody sings along
I've got a friend
he's in my hand
he understands
he said to me everything wont be so bad!

I think I'll go out drinkin'
drinkin' all night long
cuz if I go out drinkin'
then I can stop thinkin'
bout how the world done me wrong

I think I'll go out drinkin' (think I'll go out drinkin')
drinkin' all night long (drinkin' all night long)
cuz if I go out drinkin'
then I can stop thinkin'
about how the worlds done me
how the worlds done me wrong (so wrong)

now I feel ok I hope it can stay- this way
You know we've got a good thing goin' and I don't wanna see it end
You know we've got a good thing goin' and I don't wanna see it end
Are these the good days that I've heard so much about-
there goes the heartbreak that I can live without
I've been so frustrated, bitter, mean, and jaded
I've taken for granted all the things I've got
But now that you are here this anger disappears
and I feel happy too this is sappy but it's true
You know we've got a good thing goin' and I don't wanna see it end
You know we've got a good thing goin' and I don't wanna see it end
Are these the good days that I've heard so much about there goes the heartbreak
that I can live without

Hey!
Hey!

Yeah!

I just made an enemy of someone
I don't know, and they are upset about somethin'
That I must have done, it really doesn't make much sense
That I've got no
Statement in my defense- What!

[Chorus]
I know,
No matter what
No matter who
No matter what I do
Somebody hates me
(Somebody hates me)
Somebody hates me, somebody hates me
(Somebody hates me)
Somebody hates me, somebody hates me
And I hate somebody too

Did you misunderstand something that I did
Or was it one of my jokes that you didn't get
Or do you think you've got the way I think all figured out
What did I say to make you feel not cool now- Well!

[Chorus]

I know it's wrong
I do it too (I do it too)
And I guess I should say
Don't let it get to you

[Chorus]

Somebody hates me [Repeat: x5]
And I hate somebody too [Repeat: x5]
Someone like you

Slowly learning that life is o.k.

Things that you say

Don't you know they're talkin' about a revolution, it sounds like a whisper
Don't you know they're talkin' about a revolution, it sounds like a whisper

While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion

Don't you know they're talkin' about a revolution, it sounds like a whisper

Poor people gonna rise up and get their share
Poor people gonna rise up and take what's theirs
Don't you know you better run run run run run run run run run run run run
I said you better run run run run run run run run run run run run

'Cause finally the tables are starting to turn, talkin' 'bout a revolution
Yes, finally the tables are starting to turn, talkin' 'bout a revolution
Oh no, talkin' 'bout a revolution

Oh, I been standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion

Don't you know they're talkin' about a revolution, it sounds like a whisper
And finally the tables are starting to turn, talkin' 'bout a revolution
Yes, finally the tables are starting to turn, talkin' 'bout a revolution

Don't you know they're talkin' about a revolution, it sounds like a whisper
Don't you know they're talkin' about a revolution, it sounds like a whisper

While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion

Don't you know they're talkin' about a revolution, it sounds like a whisper

Poor people gonna rise up and get their share
Poor people gonna rise up and take what's theirs

This is not a song about the one that got away
This is not a song about the girl who didn't love me
Once again I have made somebody cry
Once again, once again I am the bad guy
I am the bad guy

It's mean but I'm not sorry I let you down
It's mean but I'm not sorry I let you down
It's mean but I'm not sorry I let you down
Don't you wish I never came around

I didn't care that she'd do anything for me
I didn't care that she would sell her soul to serve me
And as the tears fall from the corners of her eyes
I walked away, I walked away cause I'm the bad guy
I am the bad guy

It's mean but I'm not sorry I let you down
It's mean but I'm not sorry I let you down
It's mean but I'm not sorry I let you down
Don't you wish I never came around

It's not funny
It's not funny at all, no no
But your misery, your pain
I'm gonna laugh about it all
Cause I'm the bad guy
I am the bad guy
I am the bad guy

It's mean but I'm not sorry I let you down
It's mean, oh yeah
It's mean but I'm not sorry I let you down
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

It's mean but I'm not sorry I let you down
It's mean but I'm not sorry I let you down
It's mean but I'm not sorry I let you down
Don't you wish I never came around
Don't you wish I never came around
Don't you wish I never came around

I'm gonna say it like I mean it,
We've let this go on to long.
You know I'm starting to believe it
That all together we could be strong
I won't name who's to blame for the misery and pain
it's a shame all the same that we
lay down and play their game.

You've got it wrong,
it's not alright
We've got the fire, but does it mean anything
We've got the fire tonight.
We wanna fight but will that change anything?
Will it make it alright?

I know it's vague but I'll say it
There's something wrong everywhere
And you're ashamed to admit it
But if it's not then you don't care
Well they will put you away
for the things that you say
And you're not buying in,
but their still gonna make you pay

You've got it wrong,
it's not alright
We've got the fire, but does it mean anything
We've got the fire tonight
We wanna fight but will it change anything?
Will that make it alright?
