Everybody Else

Instead of fallin'in love like that You should be knockin''em on your back And you should never forget that the world where we met is a meat market so don't go fallin' in love with me You should be diggin' the scen--ery You should be readin' the sign overhead--says that this is a meat market And you'll never get away from me, so whatcha tryin' to do about it You could just give me your number now or make me have to live withyou it No, you'll never get away from me Don't even try so what's your number, little girl? There will be blood on the streets tonight 'cause in this gutter of a world I see light It's in the eyes of a girl who is so innocent of the meat market And you'll never get away from me, so whatcha tryin' to do about it You could just give me your number now or make me have to live withyou it No, you'll never get away from me Don't even try so what's your number, little girl? No you'll never get away from me, so whatcha gonna to do about it You could just give me your number now or make me try to live without it No, you'll never get away from me Don't even try so what's your number, little girl? 'cause it's a meat market it's a meat market this world so what's your number, little girl?

I'll write it in a letter but it won't upset her I'll tell her that i don't care that she's my saturday nightmare 'Though i'm no longer sleeping, still i'll keep on dreaming-- dreaming about the old days when I could make her cry just by the look in my eye I can't let her go I think I'm losing control My momma said I'd be a lady killer I can't make her cry My friends are wondering why They always thought I'd be a cold heartbreake--no, I'm just a faker I burnt her invitation 'though I need a vacation I told her that I'm busy but she still makes me dizzy Boredom is so boring Still I'll keep on snoring, dreaming about the old days when I could make her cry just by the look in my eye I can't let her go I think I'm losing control My momma said I'd be a lady killer I can't make her cry My friends are wondering why They always thought I'd be a cold heartbreake--no, I'm just a faker

I don't wanna go where the lovers go like we did when you were mine and this crying all the time-- it ain't no fun-- 'cause I gotta run so I don't wanna hear you on the other line saying "babe, I'll let you go" 'cause the one thing that I know is that I'm done and I gotta run 'cause he don't love you like I do-- no way-- and I can't chase you anymore today What can I say? I got a problem All I wanna do is just run to you I don't wanna get into a million fights like we did when we went out Only stupid people shout about something that is burning out so I don't wanna see you on the fire escape on the hottest August night 'cause these memoies, sharp and bright stick in my lungs when I gotta run 'And he don't love you like I do-- no way-- and I can't chase you anymore today What can I see? I got a problem All I wanna do is just run to you So I'll let the girls you hate get in my car, and I'll make 'em think that I'm a superstar, and I'll drive em to the place we used to sit by the sea--where we screamed-- you and me No he don't love you like i do-- no way-- and I can't chase you anymore today What can I see? I got a problem All I wanna do is just run to you

Took a sip from a bottle
of orange soda
Suddenly you were back
on my bike years ago
flashing the camera
You passed by so quickly
I remember you
so remember me
as I was back then
in my ripped blue jeans
Moments ago
it seems to me
that we were
just kids in a memory

I still see the blue
sunken barge
down by the shore and I
can taste the blackberry juice
on our fingers
But theres an echo of careless
callow footsteps
that run by so quickly
I remember you
so remember me
as I was back then
in my ripped blue jeans
Moments ago
it seems to me
that we were
just kids in a memory
in a memory

It feels good to forget
how wonderful it was
in the noise of a crowd
but sometimes cars in the night
sound like the ocean and
then I swear Im back there
seems so real then disappears
I remember you
so remember me
as I was back then
in my ripped blue jeans
Moments ago
it seems to me
that we were
just kids in a memory
Moments ago
it seems to me
that we were
just kids in a memory
Moments ago
it seems to me
that we were
just kids in a memory
in a memory
in a memory

I worked at the grocery store, had an apron on You walked in in cut-offs You were singing a song I lost my way in your eyes, vanilla ice-cream thighs Loving you--that's what I was born to do Must be real, 'cause that's how I was born to do feel Come back soon, 'cause that's what I was born to do, and you know it's true You stole some mascard and you knew I saw You walked out the door and bought a super ball I took my apron off I threw it at my boss Loving you--that's what I was born to do Must be real, 'cause that's how I was born to do feel Come back soon, 'cause that's what I was born to do, and you know it's true I lost my way again I lost my new girlfriend You said you might move away, but you never said today Loving you--that's what I was born to do Must be real, 'cause that's how I was born to do feel Come back soon, 'cause that's what I was born to do, and you know it's true

i been around the world, i can't decide
if i love or hate this thing called money
i seen those diamond waterfalls on all the corners
who say to me "hey honey"

i just know its gonna be okay
when all this paper blows away...
its just paper, anyway

you got the money that i want so bad
i like them rich girls
you got the loving that i never had
i like them poor girls
you got the money that i want so
you got the loving that i never had
ich poor girls girls

the rich girls see the curving of the earth
when flying over kansas city


but ice cream music floats along the hills
of where we're living
and those poor girls know the feeling of
the playground bench with darkness bleeding
like a palm tree, dreaming

i love you even though you got no dough

ich girls, poor girls
i just can't decide...
...i let them roll right by
((i like them rich girls))
...like them at the same time
((i like them poor girls))

cover it up in the bathroom
while you curse the mirror on the wall
you can change anything that you want to
but your hand is shaking when teacher calls

one desk away, i am begging (?) to say
"what are you so scared of?"
you′re putting on makeup
you don′t believe in love
what are you so scared of?

three cigarettes and a razor
some old ticket stubs (with) on the grass
you′re looking for entertainment
but you′re so bored with yourself
never (_____)

then she ran outside
but you′re rolling your eyes

what are you so scared of?
you′re putting on makeup
you don′t believe in love
what are you so scared of?

you got a long walk home
but you′ve got headphones
your bangs in your eyes
you need a big shove

what are you so scared of?
you′re putting on makeup
you don′t believe in love
what are you so scared of?

I am climbing up a tree
Staring at your window
And the light is shining down on me

I'm feeling pretty ill
My mother says I will get better soon
I hope I do

'cause I feel better, so much much better, without you
I feel better, oh so much better, without you
Without you
Without you

hey, it's happening again
Your voice is in the hall
And all the faces look like you

come down here on the street
We'll kiss this sweet concrete
And we'll run on and on tonight until the road is over

I feel better if I left
And smashed that picture on your shelf
Pretending like you killed yourself

I'm at your window
I can't see through

Whatever you want from her man You better take it fast While here tears are falling She sees the world different from you And if she falls again You’ll hear your maker calling So what are you waiting for What are you waiting for So what are you waiting for Here’s your chance to Say goodbye Say goodbye I’m getting so sick of it all The way he locks you in And never lets you out It’s got to get better than this I got a motorbike in The driveway now So what are you waiting for What are you waiting for So what are you waiting for Here’s your chance to Say goodbye Say goodbye

Standing on the runway watching all the planes go by
Wonedring if i'm ever gonna see you on the other side

And I wanna tell you straight, sometimes you have to wait
But it's worth it even if it's a little late

I miss the rain, I miss the sun
When I'm at home, I miss being gone
I miss that subway rattling by
The longest hour of my life
What I miss the most is you

The cemetary gates are the only place I feel alive
I'm leaving you a note in a place that will be easy to find

And I gotta tell you straight, sometimes you have to wait
But it's worth it even if it comes too late

I miss the rain, I miss the sun
When I'm at home I miss being gone
I miss that subway rattling by
The longest hour of my life
What I miss the most is you

I'm gonna tell you straight
Sometimes you have to wait
But it's worth it even if it comes too late

I miss the rain, I miss the sun
When I'm at home I miss being gone
I miss that subway rattling by
The longest hour of my life
What I miss the most is you

The rain, I miss the sun
When I'm at home I miss being gone
I miss that subway rattling by
The longest hour of my life
What I miss the most is you

I miss you the most
I'm just a boy without you

i'm taking a chance cause that's all i got when i walk away you'll tell me to stop the back of my head too painful to see and i feel a shadow following me i can't get enough you really are torturess, my girl an audience that isn't impressed you are my button for punisment that i push until i'm satisfied my jacket is on can leave when i want both only a world i'll be nailed to the spot where your lashes started and your breath was warm like delicate breezes before the storm you could almost forget you really are a torturess, my dear a teacher looking over my test you are my buttn for punishment that i push until i'm satisfied but i''m not satisfied give me some punishment oh, i can take it give me more, oh, please baby, help me kill me i would lose my mind if i can't stay ... if i can't stay so don't you forget when walikng where the river leads wearing a ring that's form vending machine i am a glutton for punishment and i won't stop until i'm satisfied but i'm not satisfied give me some punishment on this rainy evening no use rainy evening no use hiding on the corner of Pitz & Mercy (?) you accidentally said you love me now , i bet you wish you could just take it back but now i know it's a fact and that's you punishment

Alone in the world
I′m alone in the world tonight
And nobody′s listening to me
But it feels alright

Scraping a stick ′long a fence
In the thinning twilight
Falling in love with a face
In the foyer that′s screaming by

′Cause I′m alone in the world tonight
Dancing with a traffic light
Looking for a dream but I
Come and get no reply
I′m alone in the world tonight

Well I hear the music
The sound of the distant drum beat
I ollie the curb and I skate along 17th street

′Cause somewhere a girl′s trying on yet another outfit
And somewhere a party is starting
But I can′t get into it

′Cause I′m alone in the world tonight
Dancing with a traffic light
Looking for a dream but I
Come and get no reply

And I′m screaming as loud as I can
′Cause I′m alone in the world tonight

When I hear the music
The sound of the distant drum beat
It′s just like the sound of my wheels
On the cracks in the sidewalk at my feet

′Cause I′m alone in the world tonight
Dancing with a traffic light
Looking for a dream but I
Come and get no reply

And I′m screaming as loud as I can
′Cause I′m alone in the world tonight
I′m alone in the world tonight
