Breakin' Up

Breakin' Up


Now every once in a while
There's a crack in my smile
Dark voices are talking to me
Dark voices tell me the way
It's supposed to be
They said "breakin' up"
They said "it's hard to do"
But what they say
About breakin' up
Y'know it's just not true
Breakin' up, it's easy to do
Breakin' up, it's easy to do
Why if you know
Why did you have to go
And leave me on t he floor
About as sick as a dog
I'm feeding my face
Like a bleary-eyed hog
Why'd it have to stop
With so much good undone
Breakin' up, it's easy to do
Breakin' up, it's easy to do
Breakin' up, it's easy to do
Y'know i break up every time
I break up with you

I Wanna See You Again

I Wanna See You Again



wanna see you again.
I don't care where and I don't care when.
I wanna see you again,
cause this beginning will have no end.
Bring your whips, bring your chains.
We can exchange names.
I wanna see you again.
I wanna see you again.
I feel a feeling since I don't know when.
I wanna see you again,
so you can know you have a friend.
You're so passive.
I'm filled with wrath.
We could take a bath.
I wanna see you again.
Oh, their's talk of the lights on broadway
and hearts intwining high above,
and if frankly we'll see things my way,
we will climb the heights of love.
I wanna see you again.
It doesn't matter where or when.
I wanna see you again.
I'm just beginning to have no end.
Perfect love.
Cast out fear.
Let me, buy you a beer.
I wanna see you again,
and again,
and again.
I wanna see you again.
I wanna see you again
I wanna see you again
I wanna see you again

All I Want

All I Want



All I want is to talk to you
All I want is to talk to you
I'm achin' for your touch
I'm breakin' cause I miss you so much
Do you miss me, too?

All I want is to walk with you
All I want is to walk with you
I'm hopin' for your kiss
I'm dopin' cause I miss you so much
Do you miss me, too?

Little bit closer, little bit closer, someday
When I try to get closer, then you move away

And all I want to say is all I want is to be with you
All I want is to be with you
You're hurting deep inside
You're flirting cause you need to feel that you are still alive

Little bit closer, little bit closer, someway
When I try to get closer, then you move away

And all I want to say is all I want is to walk with you
All I want is to talk with you
I'm prayin' for one night
I'm layin' so low cause I love you so though I know it ain't right

Color Me Once

Color Me Once



Color me once color me twice
Everything gonna turn out nice
Everlasting arms
You gotta keep me from these false alarms
Alarm, alarm i see you sad
Maybe i see you i'm glad
Maybe maybe the fire of her desire
Patience patience said the man
Patience patience i can't understand
Patience like a man and a wife
I got patience on my neck like a cold cold knife
I say jack be nimble jack fall dead
Jack bend over and give jilly head
Oh you gotta help my body heal my soul


Dead men working a sinner a saint
Mixing up a pail of paint

Painted the house, black as night

When the sun came up the house was white
Gotta go on

Gotta go on
We gotta go on

You gotta go on
You gotta go on

Go on
Go on

Try and live life like i couldn't

Prove My Love

Prove My Love


Just last night
I was reminded of
Just how bad
It had gotten and
Just how sick
I had become
But it could change
With this relationship
De-de range
We've all been thru some shit
And if were a thing
I think this things begun
Tell me now
What do i have to do
To prove my love to you
Special favors come in 31 flavors
Were out of mints
Pass the life savers
I'm droppin hints
Candy for candy-coated tongue
You'd be so good
So very good for me
What do you think
Tell me honestly
I'm wait wait wait
W-wait wait
Waiting for you to come
Tell me now
What do i have to do
To prove my love to you
I'd do anything
I'd do it all
I'd do it all for you
I'd climb a mountain
I'd cross the ocean
I'd do it it all
To prove my love to you

Please Do Not Go

Please Do Not Go



Tell you man i'm stuck on this lovely girl
Of course to me u'know she mean all the world
But then she like another guy
I fall down dead she never see the tears i cry
Please please please do not go
How long can the days go on
When my love is so strong
And i know i cannot tell a lie
I wanna see him go bye
Bye bye bye bye bye bye bye
Now i wonder what she would say
If i told her that i felt this way
Y'know it might make her turn either way
So all i can do is patiently pray
Pray pray pray pray
Tell you man i'm stuck on this lovely girl
And y'know i could travel all over the whole world
Please please please do not go
You hurt me so
I got something to show you

Life Is An Adventure

Life Is An Adventure



Life is an adventure,
Made for an adventurer.
Made just for the boy who can,
Grow up strong and become a man.
Nothing will bother you,
You will do what you want to.
Laughes and loves and hopes and dreams,
Action will supply the means.
Living for something.
Foregiving nothing,
And you're forgiving, nothing,
Cause you're living for something.
Fast is fast, the sacred cow.
Life is in the here and now.
Got to dream and got to hope.
Broaden your horizon scope.
I told you once and i told you twice,
Japanese eat lots of rice.
You can be my assistant.
It could be to you detriment.
Ah we're believing something.
Conceiving a great wealth.
Conceiving nothing
Believing in myself
Believing in myself
Life is an adventure,
Made for an adventurer.
Made just for the boy who can,
Grow up strong and become a man.
La, la, la, ...

I'm Nothing

I'm Nothing



I-m-n-o-t-h-i-n
I-m-n-o-t-h-i-n
I'm nothing'
I'm nothin'
Are you a republican or a democrat
A liberal fascist full of crap
I'm nothin'
I'm nothin'
Somebody somewhere might be something
But everybody everywhere
Knows that i'm nothin
Politics and dirty tricks
I got no time for stones and sticks
Politics and dirty tricks
I got no time i'm chasing chicks
I'm nothin'
I'm nothin'
Somebody somewhere might be something
But everybody everywhere
Knows that i'm nothing
I'm nothing but i'm not proud
'cause being nothing it's not allowed
Are you a gay or are you straight
Do you believe in love
Or do you believe in hate
I'm nothin'
I'm nothin'
Somebody somewhere said he was something
But to everybody everywhere
I'm saying i'm nothing
I'm nothing. i'm like a cloud
I'm free to be alone in a crowd
What's your reality. it's not real to me
What's your anomaly. it is my destiny
I-m-n-o-t-h-i-n
I-m-n-o-t-h-i-n
I'm nothin'
Nothin'
Nothin'
I'm nothing now and i'll be nothing when
This nothing world has it's nothing end

Confessions



People worry

Seems like there's a good reason
To worry worry worry
I'd sit around listening to you story
If i wasn't in such a
Hurry hurry hurry
And i'm so lonely
I just don't think i can take it anymore
And i'm so lonely
I just don't know what to do
And i'm so lonely
Feel like i'm gonna crawl away and die
And i'm so lonely
Feel like i'm gonna
Hack hack hack hack it apart
Seems like theres a good reason to be
Lonely lonely lonely
I gotta get someone or something
To make me feel less
Lonely lonely lonely
I know i could do it
I know if i wasn't so
Lonely lonely lonely

We'll teach you how to act like to act like a man
Have we got an army

Pay pay pay pay it tonight

People worry

Na you see i've learned my lessons
And i don't even want to here about your confessions

He Likes Me


He likes me
He likes me
Ooh... isn't that nice
He likes me
He likes me
Ooh... isn't that nice
That your brand new friend
He likes your old true friend
And isn't that the way
That it ought to be
That your brand new friend
He has good will to send
And you're so free
You're so free
You're so free
And i am history
He likes you
He says that he loves you
Ooh that's good to know
You like him
I hope you don't love him
And ooh you should know
That your old true friend
He doesn't like your brand new friend
Person to person it's not on purpose
But i take it personally
And soon your brand new friend
I hope i'll have a bon voyage to send
And you're so free
You're so free
You're so free
And i am history
You say you won't pick
And you won't make a choice
But i'm so mad i could spit
And i hear it in your voice
You said he likes me
He likes me
Ooh isn't that swell
He likes me
You said he likes me
Ohhh tell him hell...
O from me
A great big hello from me
Jesus always taught me
That i should love my enemy
Darling my heart's in pain
That's why my song's insane
And you're so free
And i am history
He likes me
But i don't like him
