"High School Football Hero"

"High School Football Hero"



I wanna be a highschool football hero.
With an S.A.T. score less than zero. I wanna
try to drink my weight in beer-o. I wanna be a highschool football hero.
I wanna score a touchdown so I can score after the game.
I don't care about my future 'cause it is just another day.
I'll rush for forty yards and drink four forties later on. I'm done with
this brunette someone pass me another blonde.
Coach tells me to drink my milk and wash it down with 'roids.
I've gotta get my rest so I can
party with the boys.
My brain is upside-down, so I'm just a little slow.
I'll change my name to
Bubba so that everyone will know...

"I Am Trying Very Hard To Be Here"

"I Am Trying Very Hard To Be Here"



Before you came, what was your name?
Did you look like me?
No one's from here, no one, my dear
Not even the trees

So change your name
Just keep your face
We're temporary anyway
Before you came we played this game
In our masquerade

(Flash, flash, car crash)
We're no fixtures
(Quick now, quick)
Take our picture
(Flash, flash, car crash)
We're no fixtures
(Whoa-oh)
Whoa-oh-oh!

What was your past?
When was the last time that you recall
Someone you knew was someone who
Asked nothing of you

So lose your past
I'm sure you'll find
It's in the way
All the time
Before you're through you're someone who
Looks a lot like you

(Flash, flash, car crash)
We're no fixtures
(Quick now, quick)
Take our picture
(Flash, flash, car crash)
We're no fixtures
(Whoa-oh)
Whoa-oh-oh!

We can't, can't remember the seasons
We chant in the manmade snow
We can't, can't recall the feelings that
We cannot show
Oh!
(Whoa-oh)
(Flash, flash, car crash)
We're no fixtures
(Quick now, quick)
Take our picture
(Flash, flash, car crash)
We're no fixtures
(Whoa-oh)
Whoa-oh!

(Flash, flash, car crash)
We're no fixtures
Quick now, quick
Take our picture
(Flash, flash, car crash)
We're no fixtures
(Whoa-oh)
Whoa-oh-oh!
(Hey, hey)
Oh!

"I Hope You Suffer"

"I Hope You Suffer"



I got two letters from you
Last words of the runaway
Your love was written so true
And now I can't speak your name
I faced destruction and you just killed me and walked away
I gave my heart to the cruel
Now it will not beat again

I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
Just like I suffered

No one will ever know you
Deny the last one who cares
Intoxicate with the new
Pretend I'm no longer here
I opened my heart to you
You lied just to reach inside

Now with the faith you removed our hope for forgiveness dies

I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
Just like I suffered

I've seen my darkest days
You gave each one to me
I've seen my darkest days
You gave each one to me
You have been lost for days
May you find my darkness

I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
Just like I, I fucking suffered

Just like you
You made me suffer
I hope you, I hope you do

"I Wanna Get A Mohawk (But Mom Won't Let Me Get One)"

"I Wanna Get A Mohawk (But Mom Won't Let Me Get One)"



I may be ten years old but I still know what's up.
I wear my Cramps shirt almost
every single day. I want to sag my pants.
I want to pogo dance, but Mom won't let me so I might just run away.
I wanna ride my skate. I wanna stay out late.
I wanna mohawk but mom won't let me get one.
I wanna go to shows.
Don't wanna pierce my nose.
I wanna get a mohawk but mom won't let me get one.
I may be in fourth grade, but I know what's going on.
I listen to the Misfits almost every single day.
Don't want to take a nap, I want a TV tat,
but Mom won't let me so I might just disobey.

"It Was Mine"

"It Was Mine"



Don't move
Don't do anything
What we captured got away,
slipped from us

Don't speak, don't
don't say anything,
they've been recording all we say
for years now.

You won't see them right away
but you'll hear them singing.
Hold me closely now but don't,
don't say anything.
They've come to take me away
and won't leave until I'm gone

Don't feel
Don't love anything
Love attracts all those who taint, the cherished.

Don't try to
to change anything
Nothing pure can every stay

They'll say
relax, you'll be fine.

All we love goes away

They'll take
all you let them find..
it was mine.

"Jack The Ripper"

"Jack The Ripper"


[Originally by Morrissey]

Oh, you look so tired
Mouth slack and wide
Ill-housed and ill-advised
Your face is as mean
As your life has been, so

Crash into my arms
I want you
You don't agree
But you don't refuse
I know you

And I know a place
Where no one is likely to pass
You don't care if it's late
And, you don't care if you're lost

And oh, you look so tired
But tonight you presume too much
Too much, too much
And if it's the last thing I ever do
I’m gonna get you

Crash into my arms
I want you
You don't agree
But you don't refuse
I know you
[2x]

"Just Like Heaven"

"Just Like Heaven"


[Originally by The Cure]

Show me show me show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream she said
The one that makes me laugh she said
And threw her arms around my neck
Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I’ll run away with you
I’ll run away with you
Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
Why are you so far away? she said
Why won’t you ever know that I’m in love with you
That I’m in love with you

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You’re just like a dream

Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven

"Keeping Out Of Direct Sunlight (An Introduction)"

"Keeping Out Of Direct Sunlight (An Introduction)"



We are the ones with the radiating eyes.
We are the Ones who have a fire inside.
We are the ones only we can recognize.
We've been rejected (we've been rejected)-
Suffered the ignorance, suffered the selfishness,
been pushed so far down now comes our time to surface.
Turn from the light, that made them all go blind.
We've been protected (we've been protected)
ALL ARISE TO WHAT WE BRING,
OUTSTRETCHED HANDS, UNFOLDED WINGS.
We've hurt ourselves, and I feel the sting of
broken hearts and burning wings...

"Key Lime Pie"

"Key Lime Pie"



KEY LIME PIE, infatuation that shouldn't exist,
KEY LIME PIE, indulge and I am in your debt.
KEY LIME PIE, inspire me with foolish love,
KEY LIME PIE, your green filling makes me inept.

Flaky crust is what I lust,
your fresh lime scent is a must.
Take me with coffee, never with tea,
you're the pie that pleases me.
People gawk, "Is that pie green?"
Ask for a bite, "Fuck you, i'm mean."

KEY LIME PIE, cheapest hooker I've ever had,
KEY LIME PIE, last slice gleaming, if you're out I'm mad.
KEY LIME PIE, poke fun and laugh and jest,
KEY LIME PIE, don't bother me digest, KEY LIME PIE.

"Kill Caustic"

"Kill Caustic"



So I'm feeling much worse now
You're better, you're better
Your designer drug
Won't work, won't work for me.

Connect to a three volt
I hope your battery dies.
How could you run on such, on such voltage?

All the same
I remain
The one you blame and I'm

Demonized
Purified
Justified
As you let yourself show!

So now you'll love these screams
What's left of me. (Don't! Speak!)
Love these screams like I do (My! Name!)

As the infinite stops cold
Just nine and the six are gone
Guess I was the one to
Ride that dirty ride

That is turning so fast now
I cannot hold on
But at this pace
Who'd want, who'd want to

All the same
I remain
The one you blame and I'm

Demonized
Purified
Justified
As you let yourself show!

So now you'll love these screams
What's left of me. (Don't! Speak!)
Love these screams like I do (My! Name!)

Don't ever speak my name

Don't ever speak my name again
Don't ever speak it
Don't ever speak my name again
Don't speak
Don't speak

DON'T
SPEAK
MY
DON'T SPEAK MY NAME!

So now you'll love these screams
What's left of me. (Don't! Speak!)
Love these screams like I do (Why)
