I Just Wanna Have Something To Do
Bad Boyfriend
I’ve got a fever
Come check it and see
There’s something burning and rolling in me
We may not last but we’ll have fun till it ends
C’mon baby be my bad boyfriend
I wanna hear you call out my name
I wanna see you burn up in flames
Keep you on ice so I can show all my friends
C’mon baby be my bad boyfriend
So ripe so sweet come suck it and see
But watch out daddy I sting like a bee
I know some tricks I swear will give you the bends
C’mon baby be my bad boyfriend
My fever’s rising you ran into luck
Say what sugar?
You wanna get what?
I’m wanna give you one hundred and ten
C’mon baby be my bad boyfriend
It’s wild the way you tease me
It’s wild the way you free me
It’s wild the way you reach me
Wrapped me up in your wire from the start
You’ve got the women waiting in line
I’m not asking you to make up your mind
But I can make you happy at least now and then
I’ve got something special for my bad boyfriend
If you can’t love me honey go on just pretend
I’ve saved something special for the very end
If you can’t love me honey go on just pretend
C’mon baby be my bad boyfriend
Run Baby Run
Love can be so strange
Don’t it amaze you?
Every time you give yourself away
It comes back to haunt you
Love’s an elusive charm and it can be painful
To understand this crazy world
But you’re not gonna crack
No you’re never gonna crack
Run my baby run my baby run
Run from the noise of the street and the loaded gun
To late for solutions to solve in the setting sun
So run my baby run my baby run
Life can be so cruel
Don’t it astound you?
So when nothing seems too certain or safe
Let it burn through you
You can keep it pure on the inside
And you know what you believe to be right
So you’re not gonna crack
No you’re never gonna crack
Run my baby run my baby run
Run from the noise of the street and the loaded gun
To late for solutions to solve in the setting sun
So run my baby run my baby run
Find out who you are before you regret it
Cause life is so short there’s no time to waste it
So run my baby run my baby run
Run from the noise of the street and the loaded gun
To late for solutions to solve in the setting sun
So run my baby run my baby run
Right Between the Eyes
Don’t care what they have to say
Why you listening to them anyway?
Why do you have to give them what they want?
They love to watch you as you fall apart
Stick it to them like a phoenix rise
There’s nothing grander than the big surprise
They can’t hurt you with their sticks and stones
About time take them right between the eyes
Seek to destroy cause they’re scared of you
That’s why they try to make a fool of you
They’re so jealous of my pretty star
Cause you’ve got soul inside your shattered heart
Stick it to them like a phoenix rise
There’s nothing grander than the big surprise
They can’t hurt you with their sticks and stones
About time take them right between the eyes
And you’ve been waiting all your life
To fly high into somebody else
And it’s true it’s a cruel, cruel world
Life’s a bitch and then you die my love
Don’t care what they have to say
You shouldn’t listen to them anyway?
Stick it to them like a phoenix rise
There’s nothing grander than the big surprise
They can’t hurt you with their sticks and stones
About time take them right between the eyes
People kill to build you up
Then they’ll stab you in the back like that
You know it breaks my heart
Can’t see you going out like that
Stay alive my love
Stay alive my love
Stay alive my love
Stay alive my love
Why Do You Love Me
I'm no Barbie doll
I'm not your baby girl
So I've done ugly things and I have made mistakes
And I am not as pretty as those girls in magazines
I am rotten to my core if they're to be believed
So what if I'm no baby bird hanging upon your every word?
Nothing ever smells of roses that rises out of mud
Why do you love me
Why do you love me
Why do you love me it's driving me crazy
Why do you love me
Why do you love me
Why do you love me it's driving me crazy
You're not some little boy
Why you acting so surprised
You're sick of all the rules
Well I'm sick of all your lies
Now I've held back a wealth of shit I think I'm gonna choke
I'm standing in the shadows with the words stuck in my throat
Does it really come as a surprise when I tell you I don't feel good?
That nothing ever came from nothing man
Oh man ain't that the truth
Why do you love me
Why do you love me
Why do you love me it's driving me crazy
Why do you love me
Why do you love me
Why do you love me it's driving me crazy
I get back up and I do it again
I get back up and I do it again
I get back up and I do it again
I get back up ........ and I do it again
I think you're sleeping with a friend of mine
I have no proof but I think that I'm right
And you've still got the most beautiful face
It just makes me sad most of the time
Bleed Like Me
Avalanche is sullen and too thin
She starves herself to rid herself of sin
And the kick is so divine when she sees bones beneath her skin
And she says:
Hey baby can you bleed like me?
C’mon baby can you bleed like me
Chrissie’s all dressed up and acting coy
Painted like a brand new christmas toy
He’s trying to figure out if he’s a girl or he’s a boy
He says:
Hey baby can you bleed like me?
C’mon baby can you bleed like me
Doodle takes dad’s scissors to her skin
And when she does relief comes setting in
While she hides the scars she’s making underneath her pretty clothes
She sings:
Hey baby can you bleed like me?
C’mon baby can you bleed like me
Therapy is speedie’s brand new drug
Dancing with the devil’s past has never been too fun
It’s better off than trying to take a bullet from a gun
And she cries:
Hey baby can you bleed like me?
C’mon baby can you bleed like me
It’s gets all fucked up in some karaoke bar
After two drinks he’s a loser after three drinks he’s a star
Getting all nostalgic as he sings “I will survive”
Hey baby can you bleed like me?
C’mon baby can you bleed like me
You should see my scars
You should see my scars
You should see my scars
You should see my scars
And try to comprehend that which you’ll never comprehend
Metal Heart
I wish I had a metal heart
I could cross the line
I wish that I was half as good
As you think I am
But now that we know for sure they’re telling lies when they say
No one gets hurt and therefore nobody dies
You know it’s hard to believe anything that you hear
They say the world is round
Wish I was as big as you
You’d have to tell the truth
I’d be nothing you could hurt
Nothing you could use
But now that we know for sure they’re telling lies when they say
No one gets hurt and therefore nobody dies
You know it’s hard to believe anything that you hear
They say the world is round
The world is round?
I want to be dependable, I want to be courageous and good
I want to be faithful so that I can be heroic and true
I want to be a friend you can rely on you can lean on and trust
I want to understand so I can forgive and be willing to love
I wish I wasn’t flesh and blood
I would not be scared
Of bullets built with me in mind
For then I could be saved
My sweet lord take care of me for I think I’m done
Kiss my mother on her cheek and lay my burden down
But now that we know for sure they’re telling lies when they say
No one gets hurt and therefore nobody dies
You know it’s hard to believe anything that you hear
They say the world is round
The world is round?
The world is round?!
Sex Is Not the Enemy
No evolution
Sometimes it depresses me
The same old same
Oh we keep repeating history
The institution curses curiosity
It’s our conviction
Sex is not the enemy
A revolution is the solution
I won’t feel guilty
No matter what they’re telling me
I won’t feel dirty and buy into their misery
I won’t be shamed cause I believe that love is free
It fuels the heart and sex is not my enemy
A revolution is the solution
True love is like gold
There’s not enough to go around
But then there’s God and doesn’t God love everyone?
Give me a choice
Give me a chance to turn the key and find my voice
Sex is not the enemy
A revolution is the solution
Sex is not the enemy
It's All Over but the Crying
Everything you think you know baby
Is wrong
And everything you think you had baby
Is gone
Certain things turn ugly when you think too hard
And nagging little thoughts change into things you can’t turn off
Everything you think you know baby
Is wrong
It’s all over but the crying
Fade to black I’m sick of trying
Took too much and now I’m done
It’s all over but the crying
Do you really think I’m made of stone baby?
C’mon!
That we only love the things we own?
Baby you’re wrong
Certain things just happen when you make no plans
And love can really tear you up and it can break you down
Everything you think you know baby
Is wrong
It’s all over but the crying
Fade to black I’m sick of trying
Took too much and now I’m done
It’s all over but the crying
Baby we’re done
If I could I would
I’d change everything
Cause I can’t forget you though you don’t believe me
Now I can’t walk back
I can’t leave behind
Where does it go all the light that we had?
Everything you think you know baby
Is wrong
And everything you think you had baby
Is gone
Baby we’re done
Boys Wanna Fight
The boys wanna fight
But the girls are happy to dance all night
They know best how they can mess with us
Nursing an opinion’s getting dangerous
And in a world where good’s not good enough
Let’s get loaded and kick up a fuss
The boys wanna fight
But the girls are happy to dance all night
The boys wanna fight
But the girls are happy to dance all night
Is there anybody else?
What a mess we’ve made
It’s ridiculous
The whole wide world’s a stage of complete chaos
It’s gets so funny that we get confused
We don’t know where to turn cause we’ve all been used
The boys wanna fight
But the girls are happy to dance all night
The boys wanna fight
But the girls are happy to dance all night
Is there anybody else?
Let’s get loaded (oh let’s be selfish)
Let’s get wasted (and lose our senses)
Let’s get shit faced (so we can fake it)
Let’s get stupid (just entertain us)
Let’s get wicked (desensitize us)
Let’s get toasted (don’t educate us)
Let’s get hammered (yeah paralyze us)
Let’s forget it (don’t count on all )
The boys wanna fight
But the girls are happy to dance all night
The boys wanna fight
But the girls are happy to dance all night
Is there anybody else?
I’m sick sick sick of saying nothing
Sick sick sick sick of doing nothing
I’m sick sick sick of saying nothing
But let’s get loaded
Why Don't You Come Over
It’s been a crazy time for us
Of pushing all our limits
Snapping necks and breaking balls
Now you’d have done the same
But you were baking biscuits
While I went bent the law
Sacrificing something
As you counted all my flaws
So why don’t you come over
Oh why don’t you come over
Why don’t you come over and walk in my shoes
You wanna live freely
Don’t wanna die
You want it?
You got it
You chase the high
You wanna be out there
You wanna race
You wanna take over
Just gotta play
So why don’t you come over
Oh why don’t you come over
Why don’t you come over and walk in my shoes
I’m a good person
Don’t wanna fight with no-one
But you piss me off
You keep pushing, pushing
You’d best step off the gas girl
All bets are off
Fuck you
You taste like toxic poison
I wash my hands of you
Happy Home
In my happy home I barely breathe
In my lovers arms I find relief
And there’s a sky that‘s changing and a bird that sings
I never once in my wayward life was heading to run out
In my lovers arms I wait for morning
I beg my god to speak and tear me apart
I’d lay down my body I’d lay down my arms
I never once in my sweet short life meant anybody harm
In my happy home I read the signs
In my lovers arms I move in time
There’s no more crying and there’s no more lies
I never once in my sweet short life was waiting for desire
And there’s no more crying
And there’s no more pain
I never thought for one second I’d have nothing left but shame
In my happy home I barely breathe
I never once in my wayward life was heading to run out
I Just Wanna Have Something To Do
Hanging out on second avenue,
Eating chicken vindaloo,
I just wanna be with you,
I just wanna have something to do.
Tonight, tonight, tonight,
Tonight, tonight, tonight,
Well alright!
Tonight, tonight, tonight,
Tonight, tonight, tonight.
Wait! now!
Wait! now!
Hanging out all by myself,
I don't want to be with anybody else,
I just wanna be with you,
I just wanna have something to do.
Tonight, tonight, tonight,
Tonight, tonight,
Well alright!
Tonight, tonight, tonight,
Tonight, tonight, tonight.
Wait! now!
Wait! now!
Tonight, tonight, tonight,
Tonight, tonight, tonight.
Hanging out all by myself,
I don't want to be with anybody else,
I just wanna be with you,
I just wanna have something to do.
Tonight, tonight, tonight,
Tonight, tonight,
Well alright!
Tonight, tonight, (wait!),
Tonight, tonight, well alright, (wait!),
Tonight, tonight, tonight, (wait now!),
Tonight, tonight, tonight, (wait now!).
