Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba my life till now has been filled with doubt here I am because there's no other place I can go but I can see you're a lot like me so maybe you know somewhere people like us can go where we won't get kicked out cause we've got a lot to talk about after years of research I think I've figured it out: it's the little things that get you down it's the bigger things that you can't get around and it's way too flat on the middle ground but everything else is wide open so let's go ba ba ba ba ba together. Teacher please, don't be such a tease, give me some kind of sign not detention this time the things that we used to do have been turned into a zoo by people who say all the things we used to say and if we say them again then we're gonna sound just like them after years of remorse I've finally taken it in it's the little things that get you down it's the bigger things that you can't get around and it's way too flat on the middle ground but everything else is our oyster, everything else is a picnic, everything else is terrific so let's go ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba.

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...

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...

I keep losing everything and I think I'm losing myself in this empty space caused by all the things I've lost. I keep losing everything I get I lose track of time and I don't know where I'm at sometimes I forget the alphabet too but oo oo oo oo I'm hangin' on to you cause you're the only thing I got left to lose and I can't let you disappear so I'm not gonna screw this up here if it's the last thing I ever do, I'm hangin' on to you. When I look at your face I feel like I gotta place my hand on your knee surreptitiously on top of each kiss I'm stealing you know that I can't stop unpeeling you I feel so down when I'm not feeling you up so oo oo oo oo I'm hangin' on to you cause you're the only thing I got to hang on to I can't let you get away I can't think of a better way if it's the last thing I ever do I'm hangin' on to you oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo-ie oo oo oo oo oo oo I'm hangin' on to you cause you do everything I'm into time is of the essence I'd like to deal with this mess inside if it's the last thing I ever do I'm hangin' on to you.

I fell for you. I'm gonna throw a fit and if you fall for it you're gonna fall for me too. Fall for me. Can't you see it's the least you can do? I did it all for you. What have you ever done for 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.

Half my life is spent wondering what to do or wondering where it went or why I ever bothered to at least a hundred times I've wondered why you're not here with me or if there's something I could do to make you want to be I'd do anything for you but I can never thing of anything to do just tell me something you want done I'd be glad to take it on you could do that couldn't you? 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.

Boy meets girl, girl teases boy, boy looks for something to destroy he's into her, she's onto him and that's the way it's always been she'll be with you if you want her to unless she finds out that you do then somehow she won't want to be it turns around so suddenly and I'm like yeah, but she's all no and I'm all come on baby let's go and she's like I don't think so and I'm going... The search for love and happiness turns out to be a game of chess you can't move or you flip the board and you're lying in pieces on the floor I'm like um and she's all hey and I'm all come on baby let's play and she's like that's okay and I'm going... Every day I just want to say I love her madly but I do it so badly that when I do I can't get through if she even listens she's way off in the distance. Success in these relationships rests more or less on gamesmanship and these are ships that I can't board or keep in order or afford I'm like yeah, but she's all no and I'm all come on baby let's go and she's like I don't think so and I'm going I'm going I'm going.

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

I know you're upset with me
But let's just call a truce 'Cause I don't have the energy To make up an excuse Down all day and up all night That's the way I've been Though I've heard you say That I should try to take control of my life I would try to do what you said But sometimes it's a challenge just to get out of bed And that's as good as it is ever gonna get And nothing's happening yet And everybody knows that Please pass the Prozac Waiting for that Prozac moment to arrive I'll adore that magic moment, glad to be alive Time to find out if it's true I think I'm in love with you Now's the time, but all I do Is pace around the room So we do need to give it a go? 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 |

I've come to dread what lies ahead True, I'm going to miss you But let's not skirt the issue From now on, everyting is gonna suck The future ain't what it used to be All the same things are gonna happen to me But they're gonna turn out differently The future ain't what it used to be I'll still be bored by the same old stuff Still falling short of close enough I'm still gonna breathe air But you're not gonna be there Seems like a pointless exercise without you The future ain't what it used to be You altered the course of history Now you're not gonna be together with me The future ain't what it used to be I've seen this a lot with you Now we'll just have to wait and see If this new kid you've got with you Honours his big promises Where will you be if it's too good to be true? 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 |

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. |

And you can't resurrect the body And the closing's out of date And if you stumble upon an answer It will always be too late You better take that letter Put it in the boyfriend box Are you still staring at that picture Of someone who doesn't care? Just like you're looking through a window At a world that isn't there? If you're trying to reconstruct it It will only fall apart 'Cause there's really nothing in it But your late, great, heart You better take that picture Put it in the boyfriend box Ooh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la There's something dark and dead Buried in your head and underneath your bed You're still tempted to believe the world is true You even almost do Your little world is a little empty But the memories never stop Organizing themselves in layers The most recent at the top If you need to go any deeper You can dig them out again Just in case you need to be reminded Of what a fool you've been You're gonna take those memories Put them in the boyfriend box Ooh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la Take those letters Put them in the boyfriend box The boyfriend box The boyfriend box |

Any two other poeple just like me and you
never seem to go through half the trouble that we do It's the end, over and over again when did you first begin to be so disappointed in everything? Could you have always been this way? Dead to the world, as some would say, and in such perfect disarray? Hey, Emily there came a time to speak your mind you said: "goodbye" Emily, you say goodbye but you're still here with me No one knows what we're wanding toward and I suppose ignorance is its own reward but such a lot gets ignored you've no idea of what I'd do, bullets that I would take for you, and what I'd let you put me through Hey, Emily you see the questions that arise you close your eyes Emily, you close your eyes but you're still here with me, and I always wonder, where do you pretend to be? Hey, Emily if you get called to testify you'll say "goodbye" Emily, you say goodbye but you're still here with me. |

Everything you think I want you to be But I can't deny, my heart keeps asking me If she'll still feel the way she did before So I feel for you And when I'm through I feel for you once more You feel like You feel like You felt it too Hey, you're as young as you feel And you feel pretty young to me Baby, when I lay beside you In the still of the night I can hear you sigh And I'm hoping that you feel all right I wonder how you're feeling now (I think I thought about it once or twice) So I feel for you And when I do You feel really nice When the night is gone I still feel you coming on And I gotta tell you How it feels to me, appeals to me I gotta try it every now and then So I feel for you And when I'm through I feel for you again |

Let me tell you something you don't seem to understand
I don't really care about your crappy local band. Don't you tell me I can't tell you what to do I can, on the whole, 'cause I work for a magazine and I wrote a book about rock and roll I wrote a book about rock and roll I wrote a book about rock and roll I think rock and roll is wonderful and I wrote a book about rock and roll I know words like "sobriquet," "malaise" and "plutocrat." And I compare the Shaggs to Wittgenstein-- how cool is that? Oh, you don't? I didn't think you would. Aren't my references out of control? Sometimes I even stump myself, but it's all in my book about rock and roll. I wrote a book about rock and roll I wrote a book about rock and roll rock and roll is in my soul so I wrote a book about rock and roll hey yeah yeah, rock and roll if you start doubting me there's something you should see take a look at these thousands of CDs no one has more than me and I got all of them for free Hey, thanks for the free CD, I can sell it at the store down the block And don't be surprised if I say "kiss my ass" that's how rock and rollers talk (like me) but you better treat me right 'cause I'm mean and powerful but you'll never be a reference in my next book about rock and roll I wrote a book about rock and roll I wrote a book about rock and roll rock and roll is wonderful so I wrote a book about rock and roll |

Oh wow, she looks good in tears that you can't allow but now you haven't looked this young in years You look sweet walking down the street but no one's even slowing down they can't decide, should they offer you a ride or the head of Helen Gurley Brown Naomi, it's just a matter of time. |

Day 1 started out badly
Day 2 left me perplexed I would have stopped at Day 3 gladly but Day 4 came next and as the days turn into weeks and as the weeks turn into months you start to turn into yourself you only get to do it once you close your eyes you realize-- our days are numbered our nights are, too there were so many I could have spent with you we got no credit for the full amount our days were numbered but they didn't count Day 5 felt like it took ages it seemed that Day 6 would never arrive but when I looked up from turning the pages it was Day 365 How did I miss another year? and what will happen to the rest as my days all disappear? no one will process my request to add a few to spend with you Our days are numbered they've always been events have played out they can't be pulled back in some linger with you, some barely come to view our days are numbered and out of order, too la la la somehow it just occurred to me I never thought of it before you know I never thought I'd see Day 12,034 sounds like a lot but it's not no it's not |

Maybe the world has finally gone so wrong
it's taken all the pleasure out of being right even ordinary things seem so far out of reach that they are almost out of sight so why propose worst case scenarios? they seem to find ways to come true we live in an imperfect world that we must concede and some things are impossible take that as agreed but getting some of what you want and most of what you need? perhaps, perhaps Now that the endless march of bitterness has worn us out it could be time to call a halt sometimes even victims of injustice must admit that something might have been their fault all the same assigning all the blame could take all the time in the world and I don't have that kind of time, forever is a curse and I don't want to be the ruler of the universe but staying in a little world that won't get too much worse? perhaps, perhaps. "A world of our own" sounds so trite but that's almost all right the way I thought that it would be has vanished in the air and most of it's impossible, and I don't really care but reaching out for somebody who's actually there? perhaps, perhaps. |

It got you through your darkest days And anybody looking at the record Would say you had a case You never imagined That you'd ever really make it through And now that you have, you don't know what to do The future has arrived, but where are you? Ooh wah ooh, I see you crying Ooh wah ooh, I hear you trying Though you've got it down to a science Self-pity won't help you now Look at yourself Do you really believe That the world needs to see Another aging enfant terrible? Alienation makes the world go round And as a fashion statement It's absolutely sound But you're not really an alien, as such Self-confidence makes you seem so out of touch But self-pity seems like it's a bit too much Ooh wah ooh, looks like you blew it Ooh wah ooh, looks like you knew it Though you taught the world how to do it Self-pity won't help you now |

Two times as many things get left half undone We're twice as half-asleep when the new day has begun And maybe twice as on the run 'Cause some of them will still be making fun of us They'll say, "The two of you will never be one of us" But even if that's true They'll have twice as much to do When there are two of us And one of them is you They'll find the two of us much harder to restrain Outsmarted by our impressive double brain If one of us runs dry, still another will remain And it's twice as hard to pull the chain Of two of us, against a ton of them But two of us outnumber every single one of them Two lives are semi-rough With half the rent and twice the stuff There are two of us, and that should be enough Look at everybody Everybody's always falling apart or breaking up But the two of us never will be one of those And I should know - I have had a run of those Our love's not guaranteed But it's growing like a weed There are two of us I think that's all we need |

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. |

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.

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. |

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. |

I've got this drive to be eaten alive that's the only reason I can see, cause we've made a fine art out of falling apart and that's always how it's gonna be. I've thought of leaving you, but where would that leave me? I keep coming back to you.
I'm just dumb enough. I'm just numb enough. I'm just standing in front of your lawnmower of love. You're not too sure just what you're looking for but you know you need a new referral, and you live your own life and you're nobody's wife just like any other Cosmo girl. 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. |

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. |

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. |

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? |

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? |

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.

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'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. |

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.

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. |

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'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.

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.

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 |

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.

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'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.

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.

disconnection in her brain she was okay, now she's no we're disconnected and I'm cut off she talks and I can't follow disconnection in your head, in your head disconnection and it makes me feel so bad disconnection in your head why didn't you tell me I might have understood you always make it sound so good now there's nothing that's what I've got we're disconnected and I'm cut off and that's something I can't swallow I wonder if she's alright I think about it every night such a waste of time |

I heard you I heard you
I hope you hear me I want to believe you but I can't agree I won't believe what I can't see you can't fool me One big lie I talked to you all night you told me your views you made me an offer I couldn't refuse but that doesn't mean a fucking thing just a smokescreen so don't try to tell us you've thought it all through because we know the lie and we're smarter than you I won't believe a fucking thing you can't fool me |

The local rock group down the street
Is trying hard to learn their song Seranade the weekend squire, who just came out to mow his lawn Another Pleasant Valley Sunday Charcoal burning everywhere Rows of houses that are all the same And no one seems to care See Mrs. Gray she's proud today because her roses are in bloom Mr. Green he's so serene, He's got a t.v. in every room Another Pleasant Valley Sunday Here in status symbol land Mothers complain about how hard life is And the kids just don't understand Creature comfort goals They only numb my soul and make it hard for me to see My thoughts all seem to stray, to places far away I need a change of scenery Ta Ta Ta... Another Pleasant Valley Sunday Charcoal burning everywhere Another Pleasant Valley Sunday Here in status symbol land Another Pleasant Valley Sunday... |

Won't let me alone
Your constant monotone I'm trash, I know it's true But what does that make you? I want to know what the reason is Scientific You thought you knew all along You thought you knew but you were wrong You thought that you knew me But you don't know anything |

I've got all of the symptoms
and I don't know wrong from right I resist the itemized list but it seems so hard tonight I don't want to be a sheep just because I'm told I don't want to be a sheep in complete control you get into my headache you regulate the pain but I can't second guess you you go directly to my brain I can't believe they're on my side I've been wrong too many times I do anything you say I don't know left from right I think there's something in the water because it doesn't taste quite right |

I want to be real cool
I don't want to follow the schedule I want to eat my TV set I want to smell like aqua net I want to know the human race I want to rub it all over my face Life is such a fucking joke I want to laugh until I choke Thought I saw you when I closed my eyes But it was just an order of fries Thought I loved you yesterday But it was just a TV tray I want to meet the Aspirin lady I want to talk to Peter Brady I want to be on my own I want to be fully grown I want to be a celebrity I want to be like Mr. T Won't let people fuck with me Every night on TV |

It'll take a zillion years
that's a long time we'll all be dead, past our prime it'll cost a zillion dollars to pay the debt and a zillion other details that haven't been thought of yet. A zillion years. I won't be waiting A zillion years, that's a long long time A zillion years. What are you waiting for? A zillion years, that's a lot of lies. It'll take a zillion years that's over-kill nothing ever changes, nothing ever will a zillion cups of coffee in a zillion shaking hands a zillion alcoholics, a zillion hardcore bands You can take your quaaludes you can drink your beers you won't feel better in a zillion years a zillion cups of coffee a zillion bags of drugs a zillion tubes of toothpaste still won't be enough |
