*** All Alone ***
I'm all alone but my heart is full
I'm a sunken stone, I'm thinking you're the pool
I'm lost in space, but I'm on the ground
you can find my heart in the lost and found
because you are not like all the rest
a girl who puts me to the test
so why must you be oh so rude
giving me that attitude
please don't take that tone with me
I understand the way you see
you think you're different just like me
I'm center stage as you rant and rave
it's the final scene of our tragic play
the curtains close and I take a bow
I play this role until my youth runs out
I'm all alone but my heart is full
I'm a sunken stone, I'm thinking you're the pool
I wan't a girl who's just like you
giving me that attitude
please don't take that tone with me
I'm not just another one you see,
I'm the one for you and you're my destiny
*** Asleep At The Wheel ***
It's two in the morning, I'm tired as hell.
What am I doing behind the wheel?
The lights have all blurred into a row.
How long I'll be up, I just don't know.
I'm falling asleep, asleep at the wheel,
this feels like a dream but this is real.
I've got a lot on my mind, I've been driving all night.
You can bet I'll be driving when out comes the light.
I've been on the road so long that I'm gonna crack,
I've been "On the road" longer than Jack Kerouac.
(Chorus)
*** Better Watch Your Back ***
the things you claim, I can't except the blame
better watch your back I'm gonna win this game
you try to phase me, you can't phase me
I got you thinking that I feel no pain
but I feel it...
are you insane, enjoy inflicting pain
better watch your back I'm gonna ruin your name
try to control me, but I'm too strong you see
I got you thinking that I feel no pain
but I feel it...
you try to bring me down
you can't bring me down
but I can bring you down
*** Celebrate ***
You think that you could walk out on me.
You think that I'll be there when you're in need.
I celebrate my days of hate 'cause now I see that you're nothing to me.
So go out and get with any guy you find.
Don't come crawling back when you're in need.
(Chorus)
*** Diane ***
I've been in this bind for a while, I can't find a girl who's quite my
style,
ever since you walked out on me. You were the one for me, we'd sit and
watch our
MTV, why'd you have to walk out on me? I'm reaching insanity. Diane, come
back
to me. I can be anything that he can be! Please tell me what wasn't right.
"Two
star crossed lovers" in the night, why'd you have to walk our on
me? (Chorus)
*** Don't Worry ***
So you know that everybody's going to the ska show when it used to be
just you.
You feel betrayed, alone, left out. All your favorite bands have all sold
out.
And now you see them on MTV. No way they're gonna remember little old
me, what's
become of the ska scene? All the bands want money. All the bands are mean.
So
please come out to the show tonight. I promise everything is gonna be
all right.
The boys are gonna start a pit. But all you wanna do is dance, you're
sick of
this punk bit
*** Far Behind ***
All I need is a walking cane
to guide me on my way
a hat to push away the rain
that would be okay
starting over to begin
I'm standing here too strong
I never thought I'd ever see at all
I stand to tall, but I shrink away
I never thought I could feel as good
as the way I feel today
so I run away...
cause things aren't quite going my way
run away from yesterday
tomorrow will be free
I slipped today, but that's okay
I need a new routine
those who live and those who die
shining like the sun
all trying to peak over the wall
I stand to tall, but I shrink away
I never thought I could feel as good
as the way I feel today
so I run away...
cause things aren't quite going my way
and when I turned on mtv
I saw just what I wanted to be
but that was yesterday
and things aren't quite going my way...
*** Forget The World ***
I pick you up, we stay out late. My life is good, my life is great. Nothing
matters any more!
My grades have dropped I'm such a schmuck, but I don't care I don't give
a ----
Nothing matters any more! Ever since I heard that ring, I put down everything.
I
picked the phone up off the floor, and nothing matters any more! Forget
the
world! So time has passed but nothing's changed, my life's still bad it's
all
rearranged. Nothing matters any more! My grades have dropped I'm such
a schmuck,
but I don't care I don't give a ..... Nothing matters any more! (Chorus)
*** He Said ***
when I was just a young boy
I loved to play with my toys
and sit around and watch tv
sometimes we'd go to the beach
I loved to go to the beach
until an old man came to me
I said hey mister, why do you look so blue
he said it's nothing you just
look like someone I once new
I said oh really as I looked into his eyes
right then and there I knew this man would tell no lies
he said
I am a man of glory, I've got a million stories
if you would just listen to me
I've sailed across this ocean, given so much devotion
but just one thing has stayed with me, come here and see
we'd find a park with flowers
we'd sit and talk for hours
he taught me ancient history
he said
I used to be a great man
I traveled across this great land
until an old man came to me
and said
I am a man of glory, I've got a million stories
if you would just listen to me
I've been around the world
been with all kinds of girls
but just one thing has stayed with me, come here and see
but now I am much older
my life has grown much colder
I only care about one thing
how can I make more money
life's empty without money
and then a voice spoke out to me
and said
I am a man of glory, I've got a million stories
if you would just listen to me
I used to be a rich man
money can ruin a good man
just look what it has done to me
no I'm, I'm not the same as I used to be...
*** Lost It ***
can you see what I am seeing
now that I am on my own
I can't explain the way I'm feeling
I question everything I know
I can't believe what she said
it went straight to my head
I'm lacking inspiration
where's my inspiration
I had it, and I lost it,
now you've got to help me get it back again
I can't believe a word she says to me
it brings me closer to insanity
why can't she just understand
the things she says could kill a man
I can't believe what she said
it went straight to my head
I'm lacking inspiration
where's my inspiration
I had it, and I lost it,
now you've got to help me get it back again
I can't take it
I'll never make it
the things she says are bringing me down
*** Paulina ***
you think I'm square
don't like the clothes I wear
the way I comb my hair
the way I sit and stare at you
it's just a game to take the spot-
light off of me
I'm just afraid of what you might think
sing another stupid song
about everything that's wrong
girls and other surface things
do mean a lot to me but I
I could not let you in
let you in too deep
I'm just afraid of what you might think
paulina, you know this isn't me
I've been dishonest now it's time to come clean
I said paulina, I'm the one for you you'll see
just as soon as you see me
don't walk away from me listen to what I say
all right I'm sorry I never wanted it this way I took it
I took it too far with my insecurities
I'm just afraid of what you might think..
*** Please ***
Why must you pick on me?
Have you no sympathy?
I'm just trying to get to school.
I lack popularity, no friends to ride with me.
So I'm alone in the car pool (lane).
When I saw those flashing lights,
when I heard you read my rights,
I knew this wasn't gonna be my day...
So, Officer please don't ticket me, my violation doesn't deserve a citation.
Please, I won't bother you so don't bother me.
"Sorry son but that's what I've got to do."
I'm tired of these stupid rules.
I've got to waste my day at traffic school, and on top of that I've got
to pay a fine.
The CHP likes to pick on me.
They've got no sympathy.
They're nothing but fat red neck swine.
(Chorus)
*** Pollution ***
why do you treat me oh so badly oh so cruel
I'm just a good boy needs a good girl someone cool
now I can't live with out you
I want to live
I need a solution
too much pollution
is in my head
think about you night and day
I've got to get away
you're always in my head
why don't you call me, you're too busy, I'm too plain
why can't you see the things you do they cause me pain
now I can't live with out you
I want to live without you
I need a solution
too much pollution
is in my head?)`?5Pou night and?"@
I've got to get away
you're always in my head
I tried to end it but I know I can't be happy with you not around
you're not around
I tried to end it but I couldn't find an easy way to let you down
to let you down...
*** So Lonely ***
Well someone told me yesterday
That when you throw your love away
You act as if you don't care
You look as if you're going somewhere
But I just can't convince myself I couldn't live with no one else
And I can only play that part And sit and nurse my broken heart
So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely
So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely
Now no one's knocked upon my door
For a thousand years or more
All made up and nowhere to go
Welcome to this one man show
Just take a seat they're always free
No surprise no mystery
In this theatre that I call my soul I always play the starring role
So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely
So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely
So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely
So lonely
*** Something ***
I hate to say it but your life is not right
you sleep all day and watch tv all night
you have your dreams, I know you have your dreams
but it's about time you forgot all your dreams
but I'm something, yeah I'm something
you think you know me but you don't know nothing
I've done it all, yeah I've done it all
I'm just waiting for the right phone call
can't you see? that you and me
we share one or two similarities
I had my dreams, you know I had my dreams
sometimes I regret I forgot all my dreams
but I'm something, yeah I'm something
you think you know me but you don't know nothing
I've done it all, yeah I've done it all
I'm just waiting for the right phone call
and I can't believe it
the things that they say
no I can't believe it
will I ever make it they say no way
always something there to remind me -
oh how can I forget you girl,
when there is always something there to remind me...
*** Struggling ***
you think you know who I am
but you don't know who I am
you think that you're so smart
you're just as dumb as I am
so don't try to hide what's behind those eyes
behind that smile and those big blue eyes
I can see right through your lies
I see you at the beach
you're lying in the sand
you seem so hard to reach
you're trying as hard as you can
so don't try to hide what's behind those eyes
behind that smile and those big blue eyes
I can see right through your lies
you're struggling...
*** The Sand ***
you say neglect is all I understand
I know I haven't done the best I can
if I don't change my selfish ways today
you say you'll go away to my dismay
grab your thongs we're going for a ride
singing songs in my car feeling happy
because we're going to the sand
I'll show you who I am
we'll walk along the water holding hands
by the sand
we're heading west on highway on highway number one
we'll drive until the hills block half the sun
we'll have some fun
to hurt you wasn't ever my intention
the truth is that I never lost affection
I'm sorry if I didn't pay attention
you were always on my mind
grab your thongs we're going for a ride
singing songs in my car feeling happy
because we're going to the sand
I'll show you who I am
we'll walk along the water holding hands
because we're going to the sand
where I'll make you understand
we'll walk along the water holding hands
by the sand
I know sometimes I make mistakes
I think I need to make mistakes
sometimes stupid things are said
and I'm sorry
I know sometimes I make mistakes
I know sometimes that its too late
sometimes stupid things are said
but we're going to the sand
I'll show you who I am
we'll walk along the water holding hands
because we're going to the sand
where I'll make you understand
we'll walk along the water holding hands
yeah were going to the sand
where I'll do the best I can
we'll walk along the water holding hands
by the sand...
*** Thinking ***
I can't stop thinking
while I'm on the can
your eyes pop into my mind again and again
oh annie
why can't you understand
every night I dream about being your man
but every time I come up to you
my throat turns dry I'm tripping on my shoes
I don't know what I'm gonna do
cause I think I have fallen in love with you
it's true
wishing that
you'd come up to me
you're always on my mind you're driving me crazy
I'm missing
your personality
you're always on my mind you're making me lazy
but every time I come up to you
my throat turns dry I'm tripping on my shoes
I don't know what I'm gonna do
cause I think I have fallen in love with you
so please oh please won't you tell me that you love me too
*** Wasting My Life ***
something in the way she never looks my way I'm in love
something in the way she doesn't hear a word I say I'm in love
but people say we're not the same
she's out of my league I'm insane
am I wasting my life waiting for you, is it true
am I wasting my life on you
so tell me it's not true
something in the way she looked at me today I'm in love
something in the way she says for me to get away I'm in love
but people say we're not the same
she's out of my league I'm insane
am I wasting my life waiting for you, is it true
am I wasting my life on you
so tell me it's not true
*** When Will I Learn ***
I bought everything that you asked for, everything but you wanted more,
I guess
I wasn't quite enough. I did everything that you asked me to, everything
that I
could do, I guess I wasn't quite enough. I should have acted like a hopeless
pessimist, 'cause I know that you're a sucker for that type, and if I
told you I
was gonna kill myself, maybe then you'd comfort me and hold me tight.
I took you
every place that you wanted to go, every single place that I know, I guess
I
wasn't quite enough. I told you everything that you wanted to hear, I
said I
love you in your ear, I guess I wasn't quite enough. (Chorus)
