ALL I’VE GOT TO DO
Whenever I want you around, yeah.
All I gotta do,
Is call you on the phone,
And you'll come running home,
Yeah, that's all I gotta do.
And when I, I wanna kiss you, yeah.
All I gotta do,
Is whisper in your ear
The words you long to hear,
And I'll be kissin' you.
And the same goes for me,
Whenever you want me at all.
BLACKBIRD
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
Black bird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
all your life
you were only waiting for this moment to be free
Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.
I’LL SET YOU FREE
I remember eyes that shine
As they looked so hard back into mine
Now it's just a memory
So I'll set you free
I hear you through the wire
The words all sound like noise
What happened to the fire in your voice
don't try to hide the distance
It's just too big to ignore
We work it out like business
It won't work anymore
I remember eyes that shine
As they looked so hard back into mine
Now it's just a memory
So I'll set you free
I'll set you free
Still sometimes late at night
Moonlight comes into my window
WITH OR WITHOUT YOU
SEE THE STONE SET IN YOUR EYES.
SEE THE THORN TWIST IN YOUR SIDE.
I WAIT FOR YOU.
SLEIGHT OF HAND AND TWIST OF FATE,
ON A BED OF NAILS SHE MAKES ME WAIT,
AND I WAIT WITHOUT YOU.
WITH OR WITHOUT YOU,
WITH OR WITHOUT YOU.
THROUGH THE STORM WE REACH THE SHORE.
YOU GIVE IT ALL BUT I WANT MORE.
AND I´M WAITING FOR YOU.
WITH OR WITHOUT YOU,
WITH OR WITHOUT YOU.
I CAN´T LIVE
WITH OR WITHOUT YOU.
AND YOU GIVE YOURSELF AWAY,
AND YOU GIVE YOURSELF AWAY,
AND YOU GIVE,

Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise,
You were only waiting for this moment to arise,
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
I make believe it's how it used to be
We made it look so easy
We never tried to resist
Somehow you stopped believing
Somehow we've come to this
I remember eyes that shined
As they looked so hard back into mine
Now it's just a memory
So I'll set you free
I remember words that fell
Like coins into a wishing well
It was never meant to be
So I'll set you free
I'll set you free
So now that I must go on
What more can I do
What good is being strong
When all I ever really want is you
AND YOU GIVE,
AND YOU GIVE YOURSELF AWAY.
MY HANDS ARE TIED.
MY BODY BRUISED, SHE´S GOT ME WITH
NOTHING TO WIN AND
NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE.
AND YOU GIVE YOURSELF AWAY,
AND YOU GIVE YOURSELF AWAY,
AND YOU GIVE,
AND YOU GIVE,
AND YOU GIVE YOURSELF AWAY.
WITH OR WITHOUT YOU,
WITH OR WITHOUT YOU.
I CAN´T LIVE
WITH OR WITHOUT YOU.
WITH OR WITHOUT YOU,
WITH OR WITHOUT YOU.
I CAN´T LIVE
WITH OR WITHOUT YOU,
WITH OR WITHOUT YOU.

COCONUT SKINS
You can hold her hand
And show her how you cry
Explain to her your weakness
So she understands
And then roll over and die
You can brave decisions
Before you crumble up inside
Spend your time asking everyone else's permission
Then run away and hide
Or you can sit on chimneys
Put some fire up your ass
No need to know what you're doing or waiting for
But if anyone should ask
Tell them I've been licking coconut skins
And we've been hanging out
Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins
I’M LOOKING THROUGH YOU
I'm looking through you, where did you go
I thought I knew you, what did I know
You don't look different, but you have changed
I'm looking through you, you're not the same
Your lips are moving, I cannot hear
Your voice is soothing, but the words aren't clear
You don't sound different, I've learned the game.
I'm looking through you, you're not the same
Why, tell me why, did you not treat me right?
Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight
You're thinking of me, the same old way
You were above me, but not today
FOUR LETTER WORD
Oooooh, oooooh, ooh, ooh, oooooooh
Put my best foot forward
Trying to ignore the events of the day
Pacing back and forth
Slowly going nowhere
Running in place
And it looks like it’s gonna rain again
Ohhh another four letter word
Never gonna be the same again
Ohhh another four letter word
Oooooh
Oooooh, oooooh, ooh, ooh, oooooooh
Oooooh, oooooh, ooh, ooh, oooooooh
Staring out my window
Look down at the street below
Children at play
Round and round and round it goes
Where it stops no one knows
Their faces seem to say
That it looks like it’s gonna rain again
Ohhh another four letter word
Never gonna fall in love again
Ohhh another four letter word
FOR REASONS UNKNOWN
I pack my case. I check my face.
I look a little bit older.
I look a little bit colder.
With one deep breath, and one big step, I move a
little bit closer.
I move a little bit closer.
And relieve us our doubt
La la la la la la la...
Oh you can hold her eggs
But your basket has a hole
You can lie between her legs and go looking for
Tell her you're searching for her soul
You can wait for ages
Watch your compost turn to coal
Time is contagious
Everybody's getting old
So you can sit on chimneys
Put some fire up your ass
No need to know what you're doing or looking for
But if anyone should ask
Tell them I've been cooking coconut skins
And we've been hanging out
Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins
And relieve us our doubt
La la la la la la la...
The only difference is you're down there
I'm looking through you, and you're nowhere
Why, tell me why, did you not treat me right?
Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight
I'm looking through you, where did you go
I thought I knew you, what did I know
You don't look different, but you have changed
I'm looking through you, you're not the same
Yeah! Oh baby you changed!
Aah! I'm looking through you!
Yeah! I'm looking through you!
You've changed, you've changed, you've changed, you've
changed, yes you've changed!
Love is a four letter word
That should never be heard
Love is a four letter word
A four letter word
Yeah
L is for leaving
O is for on time
V is for the voices warning me I’ll lose my mind
E is for the ending
The unhappy ending of the four letter word
And it looks like it’s gonna rain again
Ohhh another four letter word
I never want to see your face again
Ohhh another four letter word
Oooooh
Oooooh, oooooh, ooh, ooh, oooooooh
Oooooh, oooooh, ooh, ooh, oooooooh
Yeah
Never gonna fall in love again
Never wanna to see your face again
Never gonna fall in love again
I never wanna see your face again
For reasons unknown.
I caught my stride.
I flew and flied.
I know if destiny's kind, I've got the rest of my mind.
But my heart, it don't beat, it don't beat the way it
used to.
 And my eyes, they don't see you no more.
And my lips, they don't kiss, they don't kiss the way
they used to, and my eyes don't recognise you no
more.
For reasons unknown; for reasons unknown.
There was an open chair.
We sat down in the open chair.
I said if destiny kind, Ive got the rest of my mind.
But my heart, it don't beat, it don't beat the way it
used to.
And my eyes, they don't see you no more.
And my lips, they don't kiss, they don't kiss the way
they used to, and my eyes don't recognize you at all.
For reasons unknown; for reasons unknown.
I said my heart, it don't beat, it don't beat the way it
used to and my eyes don't recognize you no more.
And my lips, they don't kiss, they don't kiss the way
they used to, and my eyes don't recognize you no
more.

MY FAVOURITE MISTAKE Did you know when you go it's the perfect ending
I woke up and called this morning To the bad day I'd gotten used to spending
The tone of your voice was a warning When you go all I know is you're my favorite mistake
That you don't care for me anymore You're my favorite mistake
I made up the bed we sleep in Well maybe nothing lasts forever
I looked at the clock when you creep in Even when you stay together
It's six AM and I'm alone I don't need forever after, but it's your laughter won't let
Did you know when you go it's the perfect ending me go
To the bad day I was just beginning So I'm holding on this way
When you go all I know is you're my favorite mistake Did you know could you tell you were the only one
Your friends act sorry for me That I ever loved?
They watch you pretend to adore me Now everything's so wrong
But I'm no fool to this game Did you see me walking by, did it ever make you cry?
Now here comes your secret lover Now you're my favorite mistake
She'll be unlike any other Yeah you're my favorite mistake
Until your guilt goes up in flames. You're my favorite mistake

THE JOKER Lovey dovey, lovey dovey, lovey dovey all the time

LOSING MY RELIGION Of every waking hour

Life is bigger I'm choosing my confessions
It's bigger than you Trying to keep an eye on you
And you are not me Like a hurt lost and blinded fool
The lengths that I will go to Oh no, I've said too much
The distance in your eyes I set it up
Oh no, I've said too much Consider this
I set it up The hint of the century
That's me in the corner Consider this
That's me in the spotlight The slip that brought me
Losing my religion To my knees failed
Trying to keep up with you What if all these fantasies
And I don't know if I can do it Come flailing around
Oh no I've said too much Now I've said too much
I haven't said enough I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you laughing I thought that I heard you sing
I thought that I heard you sing I think I thought I saw you try
I think I thought I saw you try But that was just a dream
Every whisper That was just a dream
That's me in the corner I thought that I heard you laughing
That's me in the spotlight I thought that I heard you sing
Losing my religion I think I thought I saw you try
Trying to keep up with you But that was just a dream, try, cry, why, try
And I don't know if I can do it That was just a dream, just a dream, just a dream
Oh no I've said too much Dream
I haven't said enough

SOMEBODY’S WATCHING ME (Who's watching)

Who's watching Well, is the mailman watching me
Tell me, who's watching (Tell me, who's watching)
Who's watching me And I don't feel safe anymore
I'm just an average man Oh, what a mess
With an average life I wonder who's watching me now
I work from nine to five (Who)
Hey, hell, I pay the price The IRS
All I want is to be left alone (I always feel like)
In my average home (Somebody's watching me)
But why do I always feel And I have no privacy
Like I'm in the twilight zone Whooooa, oh-oh

Tell me, is it just a dream Whooooa, oh-oh
When I come home at night (I always feel like)
I bolt the door real tight (Somebody's watching me)
People call me on the phone Who's playin' tricks on me
I'm trying to avoid (Who's watching me)
But can the people on TV see me (I always feel like)
Or am I just paranoid (Somebody's watching me)
When I'm in the shower Oooooooh
I'm afraid to wash my hair Whooooa-oh-oh
'Cause I might open my eyes (I always feel like)
And find someone standing there (Somebody's watching me)
People say I'm crazy So ? who can it be
Just a little touched (Who's watching me)
But maybe showers remind me (I always feel like)
Of Psycho too much (Somebody's watching me)
That's why Whooooa-oh-oh
(I always feel like) (I always feel like)
(Somebody's watching me) (Somebody's watching me)
And I have no privacy Who's playing tricks on me
Whooooa, oh-oh (Who's watching me)
(I always feel like) (I always feel like)
(Somebody's watching me) (Somebody's watching me)
Who's playin' tricks on me Can I have my privacy
[Instrumental Interlude] Whooooa-oh-oh
(Who's watching me) (I always feel like)
I don't know anymore (Somebody's watching me)
Are the neighbors watching me Who's playing tricks on me

Who's always true and never plays with your emotion

ADVENTURE SEEKER

Yea lay down your arms, and love me peacefully.
Use your arms for squeezing and please

LAST KISS
Oh, where oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world.
We were out on a date in my daddy's car
We hadn't driven very far
There in the road, up straight ahead
A car was stalled, the engine was dead
I couldn't stop, so I swerved to the right
I'll never forget the sound that night
The screamin' tires, the bustin' glass
The painful scream that I heard last.
Oh, where oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good
Nobody
Who's always true and never plays with your emotion
Nobody

But someday you’re going to retreat.
Cause my love baby

A soldier of love that’s hard to beat.
Lay down your arms, and surrender to me.
Lay down your arms, and love me peacefully.
Use your arms to hold me tight. Baby
I don’t wanna fight no more. (x2)
Oh baby, lay down your arms. (x7)
Please baby lay down your arms.
So I can see my baby when I leave this world.
When I woke up, the rain was pourin' down
There were people standing all around
Something warm runnin' in my eyes
But somehow I found my baby that night
I lifted her head, she looked at me and said
"Hold me darling just a little while."
I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss
I found the love that I knew I would miss
But now she's gone, even though I hold her tight
I lost my love, my life that night.
Oh, where oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world.
Oh, oh

WONDERWALL There are many things that I

Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do, about you now
Back beat, the word was on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now
And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
Would like to say to you but I don't know how
Because maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all, you're my wonderwall
Today was gonna be the day
But they'll never throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you're not to do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do, about you now
And all the roads that lead you there are winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I
Would like to say to you but I don't know how
[Repeat x2]
I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all, you're my wonderwall

TRY
All I know Then I see you standing there
Is everything is not as it's sold Wanting more from me
But the more I grow the less I know And all I can do is try
And I have lived so many lives Then I see you standing there
Though I'm not old I'm all I'll ever be
And the more I see, the less I grow But all I can do is try
The fewer the seeds the more I sow Oh, try, try
Then I see you standing there All of the moments that already passed
Wanting more from me We'll try to go back and make them last
And all I can do is try All of the things we want each other to be
Then I see you standing there We never will be, we never will be
Wanting more from me And that's wonderful, and that's life
And all I can do is try, try And that's you, baby
I wish I hadn't seen all of the realness This is me, baby
And all the real people are really not real at all And we are, we are, we are, we are
The more I learn the more I learn We are, we are
The more I cry the more I cry Free
As I say goodbye to the way of life In our love
I thought I had designed for me We are free in our love

BILLIE JEAN (oh, no!)

She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene 'Cause we danced on the floor in the round, baby
I said don't mind, but what do you mean I am the one People always told me be careful of what you do
Who will dance on the floor in the round And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
She said I am the one will dance on the floor in the round She came and stood right by me
She told me her name was Billie Jean, as she caused a scene Then the smell of sweet perfume
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being This happened much too soon
the one She called me to her room
Who will dance on the floor in the round Billie Jean is not my lover
People always told me be careful of what you do She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts But the kid is not my son
And mother always told me be careful of who you love Billie Jean is not my lover
And be careful of what you do 'cause the lie becomes the She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
truth But the kid is not my son
Billie Jean is not my lover She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son
But the kid is not my son Billie Jean is not my lover
She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
For forty days and forty nights But the kid is not my son
The law was on her side She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son
But who can stand when she's in demand She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son
Her schemes and plans She says I am the one
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round (Billie Jean is not my lover)
So take my strong advice, just remember to always think Billie Jean is
twice Not my lover
(Do think twice) Billie Jean is not my lover (she is just a girl)
She told my baby we'd danced till three, then she looked at Billie Jean is
me Billie Jean is
Then showed a photo my baby cried his eyes were like mine Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is Billie Jean is
Billie Jean is Billie Jean is
Billie Jean is not my lover

BOOKS FROM BOXES
Night falls and towns become circuit boards
We can beat the sun as long as we keep moving
From the air, stadium lights stand out like flares
And all I know is that you're sat here right next to me
You spent the evening unpacking books from boxes
You passed me up so as not to break a promise
Scattered polaroids and sprinkled words around your collar
in the long run
Said you knew that this would happen

We rarely see warning signs in the air we breathe
Right now I feel each and every fragment
This paper trail leads right back to you
You say you need me to step outside
You spent the evening unpacking books from boxes
You passed me up so as not to break a promise
Scattered polaroids and sprinkled words around your collar
in the long run
Said you knew that this would happen
Well this is something new but it turns out it was borrowed
too
Why does every let down have to be so thin?
Rain explodes at the moment that the cab door closed
I feel the weight upon your kiss ambiguous
You have to leave, I appreciate that
But I hate when conversation slips out of our grasp
Two bodies in motion
This is a matter of fact
It wasn't built to last
Two bodies in motion
This is a matter of fact
It wasn't built to last
You spent the evening unpacking books from boxes
You passed me up so as not to break a promise
Scattered polaroids and sprinkled words around your collar
in the long run
Said you knew that this would happen
The pounding rain continued it's bleak fall
And we decided just to write after all, after all
The pounding rain continued it's bleak fall
And we decided just to write after all

SITTING ON THE DOCK OF THE BAY Ooo, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Sittin' in the mornin' sun Wastin' time
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come Look like nothing's gonna change
Watching the ships roll in Everything still remains the same
And then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah I can't do what ten people tell me to do
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay So I guess I'll remain the same, yes
Watching the tide roll away Sittin' here resting my bones
Ooo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay And this loneliness won't leave me alone
Wastin' time It's two thousand miles I roamed
I left my home in Georgia Just to make this dock my home
Headed for the 'Frisco bay Now, I'm just gonna sit at the dock of the bay
'Cause I've had nothing to live for Watching the tide roll away
And look like nothin's gonna come my way Oooo-wee, sittin' on the dock of the bay
So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay Wastin' time
Watching the tide roll away

HARDER TO BREATHE And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in
How dare you say that my behavior is unacceptable her dreams
So condescending unnecessarily critical Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and
I have the tendency of getting very physical harder to breathe
So watch your step cause if I do you'll need a miracle Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and
You drain me dry and make me wonder why I'm even here harder to breathe
This Double Vision I was seeing is finally clear Does it kill
You want to stay but you know very well I want you gone Does it burn
Not fit to fuckin' [CD cover says: "funkin'"] tread the ground Is it painful to learn
that I'm walking on That it's me that has all the control
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love Does it thrill
You'll understand what I mean when I say Does it sting
There's no way we're gonna give up When you feel what I bring
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in And you wish that you had me to hold
her dreams When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and You'll understand what I mean when I say
harder to breathe There's no way we're gonna give up
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in
harder to breathe her dreams
What you are doing is screwing things up inside my head Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and
You should know better you never listened to a word I said harder to breathe
Clutching your pillow and writhing in a naked sweat Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and
Hoping somebody someday will do you like I did harder to breathe
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love is there anyone out there cuz its gettin harder and harder to
You'll understand what I mean when I say breathe
There's no way we're gonna give up
DREAM A LITTLE DREAM OF ME
Stars shining bright above you;
Night breezes seem to whisper æ…– love you?
Birds singing in the sycamore tree.
Dream a little dream of me.
Say nighty-night and kiss me;
Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me.
While I'm alone, blue as can be,
Dream a little dream of me.
Stars fading but I linger on, dear---
Still craving your kiss.
I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear,
Just saying this...
MOONLIGHT SHADOW
The last that ever she saw him
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
He passed on worried and warning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
Lost in a river last saturday night
Far away on the other side.
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
And she couldn't find how to push through
The trees that whisper in the evening
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun
Far away on the other side.
He was shot six times by a man on the run
And she couldn't find how to push through
I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away
I stay
I pray
NOTHING REALLY MATTERS
When I was very young
Nothing really mattered to me
But making myself happy
I was the only one
Now that I am grown
Everything's changed
I'll never be the same
Because of you
[Chorus:]
Nothing really matters
Love is all we need
Everything I give you
All comes back to me
Looking at my life
GABRIEL
I can fly
But I want his wings
I can shine even in the darkness
But I crave the light that he brings
Revel in the songs that he sings
My angel Gabriel
I can love
But I need his heart
I am strong even on my own
But from him I never want to part
He's been there since the very start
My angel Gabriel
MAGIC
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you---
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you.
But in your dreams, whatever they be,
Dream a little dream of me.
Stars fading but I linger on, dear---
Still craving your kiss.
I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear,
Just saying this...
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you---
Sweet dreams that leave all worries far behind you.
But in your dreams, whatever they be,
Dream a little dream of me.
I see you in heaven far away
Four am in the morning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
I watched your vision forming
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Star was light in a silvery night
Far away on the other side
Will you come to talk to me this night
But she couldn't find how to push through
I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away
I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away
Far away on the other side.
Caught in the middle of a hundred and five
The night was heavy but the air was alive
But she couldn't find how to push through
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Far away on the other side.
It's very clear to me
I lived so selfishly
I was the only one
I realize
That nobody wins
Something is ending
And something begins
[chorus, repeat]
Nothing takes the past away
Like the future
Nothing makes the darkness go
Like the light
You're shelter from the storm
Give me comfort in your arms
My angel Gabriel
Bless the day he came to be
Angel's wings carried him to me
Heavenly
I can fly
But I want his wings
I can shine even in the darkness
But I crave the light that he brings
Revel in the songs that he sings
My angel Gabriel
My angel Gabriel
My angel Gabriel
You came to my show
And I saw you in the crowd
I didn't know your name 'Cause you're taking me for granted baby
I didn't know your name I made a stone with you but it's not fair
I asked all my friends who you were 'Cause you're over me and land it baby
And your story One journey for you but it's worth it
They told me the same One life and with me and it's magic
They told me the same One journey for you but it's worth it
I left my heart to you but it's not fair One life and with me and it's magic
'Cause you're taking me for granted baby 'Cause you're over me and land it baby
I made a stone with you but it's not fair 'Cause you're taking me for granted baby
'Cause you're over me and land it baby 'Cause you're over me and land it baby
One journey for you but it's worth it
One life and with me and it's magic One journey for you but it's worth it
One journey for you but it's worth it One life and with me and it's magic
One life and with me and it's magic One journey for you but it's worth it
You stayed at my head One life and with me and it's magic
While I saw you all the time One journey for you but it's worth it
I didn't think you care One life and with me and it's magic
I didn't think you care One journey for you but it's worth it
I fought you all day One life and with me and it's magic
With a mouth full of attitude One journey for you but it's worth it
You stole my away One life and with me and it's magic
You stole my away One journey for you but it's worth it
I left my heart to you but it's not fair One life and with me and it's magic

I KISSED A GIRL I kissed a girl and I liked it (I liked it).

This was never the way I planned, not my intention. No, I don't even know your name, it doesn't matter.
I got so brave, drink in hand, lost my discretion You're my experimental game, just human nature.
It's not what I'm used to, just wanna try you on. It's not what good girls do, not how they should behave.
I'm curious for you, caught my attention. My head gets so confused, hard to obey.
[Chorus:] [Chorus]
I kissed a girl and I liked it, Us girls we are so magical,
the taste of her cherry chapstick. Soft skin, red lips, so kissable.
I kissed a girl just to try it, Hard to resist, so touchable.
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it. Too good to deny it.
It felt so wrong, Ain't no big deal, it's innocent.
it felt so right. [Chorus]
Don't mean I'm in love tonight.
WALKING ON AIR And little creepy bat.
La La La La La La La Little rocking chair

In a little creepy place. That little creepy girl - oh she loves to sing,
Little creepy town She has a little gift - an amazing thing.

HOLD ON Simplicity
Say you to me A heart of gold, an old head, and young shoulders
You're a bird with an eye for anything shiny Quiet and lovely
Searchin' the land Becomin' part of me
For a hero of a man And now I see
You say I need From a handful of names and a thousand faces
More than my fair share of attention One light, burnin', furiously
But I think you know I was tired of January
That just isn't so I was tired of June
Underneath, I felt the fire of a burning question I felt a change a-comin'
Tearin' me apart Oh, I was tired of January
Right from the very start Tired of June
And now I see I felt a change a-comin'
That it don't take a trick of the light to excite me Oh, I felt a change a-comin
So strong I felt a change a-comin
So long felt a change a-comin, soon
You'll see Hold on
Hold on To what you
To what you Been given lately
Been given lately Hold on
Hold on To what you
To what you Know you got
Know you got Hold on
Hold on To what you
To what you Been given lately
Been given lately Hold on
Hold on Cause the world will turn if you're ready or not
Cause the world will turn if you're ready or not Oh yeah, well the world will turn if you're ready or not
Oh, yes the world will turn if you're ready or not

SUDDENLY I SEE
Her face is a map of the world
Is a map of the world
You can see she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl
And everything around her is a silver pool of light
The people who surround her feel the benefit of it
It makes you calm
She holds you captivated in her palm
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me
I feel like walking the world
Like walking the world
You can hear she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl
She fills up every corner like she's born in black and white
Makes you feel warmer when you're trying to remember
What you heard
She likes to leave you hanging on her word
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me
And she's taller than most
And she's looking at me
I can see her eyes looking from a page in a magazine
Oh she makes me feel like I could be a tower
A big strong tower
She got the power to be
The power to give
The power to see
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
This is what I wanna be
Why the hell it means so much to me
WAITING ON THE WORLD TO CHANGE
We're all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing
There's no way we ever could
Now we see everything is going wrong
With the world and those who lead it
We just feel like we don't have the means
To rise above and beat it
So we keep waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
Its hard to be persistant
When we're standing at a distance
So we keep waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
Now if we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They would've never missed a Christmas
No more ribbons on the door
When you trust your television
What you get is what you got
Cuz when when they own the information ooohhh,
They can bend it all they want
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
So while we're waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
It's not that we don't care
We just know that the part ain't fair
So we keep waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We're still waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
One day our generation
Is gonna rule the population
So we keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
Know we keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change.

WISH YOU WERE HERE And in this moment I am happy...happy

I dig my toes into the sand I wish you were here
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds I wish you were here
Strewn across a blue blanket I wish you were here
I lean against the wind Wish you were here
Pretend that I am weightless The world's a roller coaster
And in this moment I am happy...happy And I am not strapped in
I wish you were here Maybe I should hold with care
I wish you were here But my hands are busy in the air saying:
I wish you were here I wish you were here
I wish you were here I wish you were
I lay my head onto the sand I wish you were here
The sky resembles a back lit canopy I wish you were here
With holes punched in it I wish you were here
I'm counting UFOs Wish you were here
I signal them with my lighter

COSMIC LOVE In the shadow of your heart

A falling star fell from your heart and landed in my eyes
I screamed aloud, as it tore through them, and now it's left
me blind
The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart
And in the dark, I can hear your heartbeat
I tried to find the sound
But then it stopped, and I was in the darkness,
So darkness I became
The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
I took the stars from our eyes, and then I made a map
And knew that somehow I could find my way back
Then I heard your heart beating, you were in the darkness
too
So I stayed in the darkness with you
The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart
The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart

KISS WITH A FIST I gave a slap

You hit me once You smashed a plate over my head
I hit you back Then I set fire to our bed
You gave a kick My black eye casts no shadow
I gave a slap Your red eye sees nothing
You smashed a plate over my head Your slap don't stick
Then I set fire to our bed Your kicks don't hit
You hit me once So we remain the same
I hit you back Love sticks
You gave a kick Sweat drips
Break the lock if it don't fit A kiss with a fist is better then none
A kick to the teeth is good for some You hit me once
A kiss with a fist is better then none I hit you back
A kiss with a fist is better then none You gave a kick
I broke your jaw once before I gave a slap
I spilled your blood upon the floor You smashed a plate over my head
You broke my leg in return Then I set fire to our bed
So sit back and watch the bed burn You hit me once
Love sticks I hit you back
Sweat drips You gave a kick
Break the lock if it don't fit I gave a slap
A kick to the teeth is good for some You smashed a plate over my head
A kiss with a fist is better then none Then I set fire to our bed

NO LIGHT NO LIGHT No light, no light.

You are the hole in my head. Tell me what you want me to say.
You are the space in my bed. Would you leave me,
You are the silence in between If I told you what I've done?
What I thought and what I said. And would you leave me,
You are the nighttime fear. If I told you what I've become?
You are the morning when it's clear. Cause it's so easy
When it's over, you're the start. To sing it to a crowd,
You're my head, you're my heart. But it's so hard, my love,
No light, no light in your bright blue eyes. To say it to you, alone.
I never knew daylight could be so violent. No light, no light in your bright blue eyes.
A revelation in the light of day, I never knew daylight could be so violent.
You can't choose what stays and what fades away. A revelation in the light of day,
And I'd do anything to make you stay. You can't choose what stays and what fades away.
No light, no light. And I'd do anything to make you stay.
Tell me what you want me to say. No light, no light.
Through the crowded islands, crying out, Tell me what you want me to say.
And in your place there were a thousand other faces. You want a revelation.
I was disappearing in plain sight. You want to get right.
Heaven help me, I need to make it right. But it's a conversation
You want a revelation. I just can't have tonight,
You want to get right. You want a revelation,
But it's a conversation Some kind of resolution.
I just can't have tonight, You want a revelation.
You want a revelation, You want a revelation.
Some kind of resolution. You want to get right.
You want a revelation. But it's a conversation
No light, no light in your bright blue eyes. I just can't have tonight,
I never knew daylight could be so violent. You want a revelation,
A revelation in the light of day, Some kind of resolution.
You can't choose what stays and what fades away. Tell me what you want me to say.
And I'd do anything to make you stay.

SHAKE IT OUT
Regrets collect like old friends
Here to relive your darkest moments
I can see no way, I can see no way
And all of the ghouls come out to play
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
But I like to keep some things to myself
I like to keep my issues drawn
It's always darkest before the dawn
And I've been a fool and I've been blind
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
I'm always dragging that horse around
All of his questions, such a mournful sound
Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
So I like to keep my issues drawn
But it's always darkest before the dawn
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh
woaaah
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh
woaaah
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh woah
I am done with my graceless heart
So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
It's always darkest before the dawn
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh
woaaah
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh
woaaah
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh woah
And given half the chance would I take any of it back
It's a final mess but it's left me so empty
It's always darkest before the dawn
Oh woah, oh woah...
And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road
And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
It's a shot in the dark and right at my throat
Cause looking for heaven, for the devil in me
Looking for heaven, for the devil in me
Well what the hell I'm gonna let it happen to me
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh
woaaah
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh
woaaah Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back woaaah
So shake him off, oh woah And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh So shake him off, oh woah
woaaah

NO WOMAN NO CRY I remember when we used to rock in a project yard in

A dedication to all the refugees worldwide
One time say, say, say
I remember when we used to sit in the government yard in
brooklyn.
Observing the crookedness as it mingled with the good
people we meet.
Good friends we had
Good friends we've lost along the way
In this great future you can't forget your past, so dry your
tears
I say and to my peeps who passed away,
No woman, no cry, no woman no cry, say, say,say.
Hey little sister don't shed no tears
No woman no cry say say say.
jersey,
And little georgie would make the firelight,
As stolen cars passed through the night
And then we'd hit the corner store for roots, paper, and
brew.
My drink's my only remedy
For pain of losing family, but while i'm gone shorty,
Everything's gonna be alright, everything's gonna be alright,
Fugees come to dance tonight, everything's gonna be
alright,
O everything's gonna be alright,
The gun man's in the house tonight,
But everything's gonna be alright.

*refrain*
Oh ah oh ah

SAVE TONIGHT And fight the break of dawn

Go on and close the curtains Come tomorrow
Cause all we need is candle light Tomorrow I'll be gone
You and me and a bottle of wine Save tonight
Going to hold you tonight And fight the break of dawn
Well we know I'm going away Come tomorrow
And how I wish, I wish it weren't so Tomorrow I'll be gone
So take this wine and drink with me Save tonight

Save tonight Come tomorro
And fight the break of dawn Tomorrow I'll be gone

And fight the break of dawn Tomorrow I'll be gone
Come tomorrow Save tonight

To take me away it's true
It ain't easy to say goodbye

And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I'll be gone
Save tonight

MAGGIE
When I first set eyes on you
First you beat me up, then you kissed me too
We'd throw stones into the sea
There were no others there, just you and me
Across the bridge and down the lane
I knew I loved you then, you said you did the same
Oh Maggie, what have you done
I shoulda seen it comin', to your side I'd run
Oh Maggie, come to me tonight
I will wait up for you, make sure you're alright
I miss you
You taught me how to sink or swim
When I was scared that day, you just pushed me in
And when nobody was around
You let me kiss you then, there the love I found
I said I'd never let you go
You just smiled at me, how was I to know?
Oh Maggie, what am I to do?
How can I live with only memories of you
Oh Maggie, tell me the truth
When your ship was sinking did you think it through?
I miss you
You were the fountain of my youth
And when I fumbled, you showed me what to do
And when we were both seventeen
You left me standin' there, but you were never mean
And when I saw you out with him
He looked much older and you looked very thin
I hadn't heard from you in years
And then your mama called, she couldn't speak for tears
She said you left me a note
Inside my pocket burns with these words you wrote
Hey darling boy, don't you cry for me
I am forever yours now that I am free
We'll be together, throw stones into the sea
There'll be no others there, just you and me
I miss you
Maggie's gone
I think you came the other night
You stroked my brow, your eyes were full of light
It may have only been a dream
But I would walk with you to places I never have been
Maggie's gone
HEAVEN
Oh, thinkin' about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothin' can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me comin' back for more
[Chorus]
Baby you're all that I want
When you're lyin' here in my arms
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven
Oh, once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you're feelin' down
Yeah, nothin' could change what you mean to me
Oh, there's lots that I could say
But just hold me now
'Cause our love will light the way
[Chorus]
I've been waitin' for so long
For somethin' to arrive
For love to come along
Now our dreams are comin' true
Through the good times and the bad
Yeah, I'll be standin' there by you
THE LETTER
Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane,
Ain't got time to take a fast train.
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home,
'Cause my baby just a-wrote me a letter.
I don't care how much money I gotta spend,
Got to get back to my baby again
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home,
'Cause my baby just a-wrote me a letter.
Well, she wrote me a letter
Said she couldn't live without me no mo'.
Listen mister can't you see I got to get back
To my baby once a-mo'--anyway...
Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane,
Ain't got time to take a fast train.
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home,
'Cause my baby just a-wrote me a letter.
Well, she wrote me a letter
Said she couldn't live without me no mo'.
Listen mister can't you see I got to get back

Ain't got time to take a fast train.
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home,
'Cause my baby just a-wrote me a letter.
Because my baby just a-wrote me a letter.
LOST
Just because I'm losing
Doesn't mean I'm lost
Doesn't mean I'll stop
Doesn't mean I would cross
Just because I'm hurting
Doesn't mean I'm hurt
Doesn't mean I didn't get
What I deserved
No better and no worse
I just got lost
Every river that I tried to cross
Every door I ever tried was locked
Ohhh and I'm...
Just waiting 'til the shine wears off
You might be a big fish
In a little pond
Doesn't mean you've won
Cause along may come
A bigger one
And you'll be lost
Every river that you tried to cross
Every gun you ever held went off
Ohhh and I'm...
Just waiting until the firing stopped
Ohhh and I'm...
Just waiting 'til the shine wears off
(piano solo)
Ohhh and I...
Just waiting 'til the shine wears off
Ohhh and I..
Just waiting 'til the shine wears off
ORDINARY WORLD
Came in from a rainy Thursday
On the avenue
Thought I heard you talking softly
I turned on the lights, the TV
And the radio
Still I can't escape the ghost of you
What has happened to it all?
Crazy, some are saying
Where is the life that I recognize?
Gone away
But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive
Passion or coincidence
Once prompted you to say
"Pride will tear us both apart"
Well now pride's gone out the window
Cross the rooftops
Run away
Left me in the vacuum of my heart
What is happening to me?
Crazy, some'd say
Where is my friend when I need you most?
Gone away
But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive
Papers in the roadside
Tell of suffering and greed
Here today, forgot tomorrow
Ooh, here besides the news
Of holy war and holy need
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk
And I don't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive
Every one
Is my world, I will learn to survive
Any one
Is my world, I will learn to survive
Any one
Is my world
Every one
Is my world
LANDSLIDE
I took my love and I took it down
I climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well, the landslide brought me down
Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love
Can the child within my heart rise above
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life
Uh uh... uh uh, uh uh
Well, I've been afraid of changin'
Cause I've built my life around you
But time gets bolder
Even children get older
And I'm getting older too
Well
(Instrumental)
Well, I've been afraid of changin'
Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes bolder
Children get older
And I'm getting older too
Well, I'm getting older too
So take this love and take it down
Yeah, and if you climb a mountain and you turn around
And if you see my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well, the landslide brought it down
And if you see my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well maybe...
Well maybe...
Well maybe...
The landslide'll bring you down
YOU KEEP ME HANGING ON
Set me free, why don't cha babe
Get out my life, why don't cha babe
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
You don't really need me
But you keep me hangin' on
Why do you keep a coming around
Playing with my heart?
Why don't you get out of my life
And let me make a new start?
Let me get over you
The way you've gotten over me
Set me free, why don't cha babe
Let me be, why don't cha babe
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
Now you don't really want me
You just keep me hangin' on
You say although we broke up
You still wanna be just friends
But how can we still be friends
When seeing you only breaks my heart again
And there ain't nothing I can do about it
Woo, set me free, why don't cha babe
Woo, get out my life, why don't cha babe
Set me free, why don't cha babe
Get out my life, why don't cha babe
You claim you still care for me
But your heart and soul needs to be free
Now that you've got your freedom
You wanna still hold on to me
You don't want me for yourself
So let me find somebody else Hey!
Why don't you be a man about it
And set me free
Now you don't care a thing about me I know you look for me
You're just using me Why do your eyes follow me the way they do?
Go on, get out, get out of my life
And let me sleep at night
'Cause you don't really love me WITH EVERY LIGHT
You just keep me hangin' on... Taking over
We're taking over
STAND BY ME Throw the weight up off you shoulders now
That we can show our love
When the night has come
It's almost over it's almost over
And the land is dark No more war and no more soldiers
To stand against his love
And the moon is the only light we see Away with all the troubles that you've made
No I won't be afraid Away with waiting for another day
Away
No I won't be afraid Look ma the sun is shining on me
Just as long as you stand, stand by me Impatient, in love and aching to be
Could you believe in heaven
And darling, darling stand by me If heaven was all you had
Oh, now, now, stand by me We're taking over we're taking over
Throw away your four leafed clovers
Stand by me, stand by me And stand beside this love
If the sky that we look upon Away with everything you've grown to hate
Away with anything that holds you safe
Should tumble and fall Away
And every light I've found
And the mountain should crumble to the sea
Is every light that's shining down on me
I won't cry, I won't cry I'm never alone
Look ma the sun is shining on me
No I won't shed a tear
Taking my time to do as I please
Just as long as you stand, stand by me Could you believe in heaven
If heaven was all you had
And darling, darling stand by me The sun is beaming, radiating
Oh, stand by me All the love we are creating
We are creating
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me And every light I've found
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me Is every light that's shining down on me
I'm never alone
Oh, now, now, stand by me
Oh, stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
MOUTHWASH
Darling, darling stand by me This is my face
Stand by me Covered in freckles
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me With the occasional spot
And some veins
This is my body
FOLLOWING Covered in skin
You think I'm crazy or something And not all of it
Always following you around You can see
You say I'm a hopeless case And, this, is my mind
Run an obsession ito the ground It goes over and over
You call me a loser The same old lines
You call me a shadowing fool And, this, is my brain
Look over your shoulder It's torturous analytical thoughts
And you say I'm haunting you Make me go insane
So, why do you call me? And I use mouthwash
Why do you look for me? Sometimes I floss
Why do your eyes follow me the way they do? I've got a family
You hold me responsible And I drink cups of tea
Yes, so I stand accused I've got nostalgic pavements
Of causing all the trouble after highschool I've got familiar faces
Between him and you I've got mixed-up memories
Yeah, you call me a loser And I've got favourite places
You call me a shadowing fool And I'm singing "oh oh" on a Friday night
But I was a good girl And I'm singing "oh oh" on a Friday night
Yeah, till you taught me And I'm singing "oh oh" on a Friday night
What it means to be true And I hope everything's gonna be alright
So, why do you call me? And I'm singing "oh oh" on a Friday night
Why do you look for me And I hope everything's gonna be alright]
Why do your eyes follow me the way they do? This is my face
Why do you call me? I've got a thousand opinions
And half the time I'm trying to explain I KNOW THAT YOU JUST WANT TO SEE ME GET UPSET
And this is my body MY WORLD TURNED UPSIDE DOWN SO WHAT DID YOU
And no matter how you try and disable it EXPECT
Yes I'll still be here MY HEART IS ACHING AND I’VE NEVER FELT THIS BAD
And, this, is my mind I PINCH MYSELF TO CHECK THAT ALL OF THIS IS REAL
And although you try to infringe KEEP THINKING I’M NOT LETTING ON, I FEEL THIS SAD
You cannot confine AND THEN YOU’VE GOT THE CHEEK TO ASK ME HOW I FEEL
And, this, is my brain AND I SAY…
And even if you try and hold me back ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

'Cause I use mouthwash ABSOLUTELY NOTHING YOU CAN SAY TO CHANGE MY MIND
Sometimes I floss ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

Lying in my bed again,
And I cry 'cause you're not here.
Crying in my head again, CEMETERIES OF LONDON
And I know that it's not clear. At night they would go walking
Put your hands, put your hands, Til the breaking of the day
Inside my face and see that it's just you. The morning’s for sleeping
But it's bad and it's mad and it's making me sad, Through the dark streets
Because I can't be with you. They’d go searching
Be with you. [X 4] To see God in their own way
Be with you, be with you, baby, I can't be with you. Save the nightime for your weeping
Thinking back on how things were, Your weeping…
And on how we loved so well. Singing
I wanted to be the mother of your child, la la lala la la ehh
And now it's just farewell. And the night over London, lay
Put your hands in my hands, So we rode down to the river
And come with me, we'll find another end. Where the tombs were stone
And my head, and my head on anyone's shoulder, For the curse is to be broken
'Cause I can't be with you. We’ll go underneath the arches
Be with you. [X 4] Where the witches aren’t the same
Be with you, be with you, baby, I can't be with you. There are ghost towns in the ocean
'Cause you're not here, you're not here, The ocean..
Baby, I can't be with you. Singing
'Cause you're not here, you're not here, la la lala la la ehh
Baby, still in love with you. And the night over London, lay
Still in love with you. [X 6] God is in the houses
And God is in my head
And all the Cemeteries of London
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING I see God come in my garden
I’M ON THE DOORSTEP, WITH MY KEY TURNED IN THE But I don’t know what he said
DOOR For my heart it wasn’t open
WALK IN THE LIVING ROOM AND YOU’RE SAT ON THE Not open…
FLOOR Singing
MY HEART IS ACHING AND I’VE NEVER FELT THIS BAD la la lala la la ehh
I PINCH MYSELF TO CHECK THAT ALL OF THIS IS REAL And the night over London, lay
KEEP THINKING I’M NOT LETTING ON, I FEEL THIS SAD Singing
AND THEN YOU’VE GOT THE CHEEK TO ASK ME HOW I FEEL la la lala la la ehh
AND I SAY… There’s no light over London today
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
I’M ABSOLUTELY FINE HAND IN MY POCKET
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING YOU CAN SAY TO CHANGE MY MIND I'm broke but I'm happy
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING I'm poor but I'm kind
I’M ABSOLUTELY FINE I'm short but I'm healthy, yeah
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING YOU CAN SAY TO CHANGE MY MIND I'm high but I'm grounded
 I'm sane but I'm overwhelmed
I'm lost but I'm hopeful baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be fine fine fine
Cuz I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving a high five
I feel drunk but I'm sober
I'm young and I'm underpaid
I'm tired but I'm working, yeah
I care but I'm restless
I'm here but I'm really gone
I'm wrong and I'm sorry baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be quite alright
Cuz I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is flicking a cigarette
What it all comes down to
Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet
Cuz I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving the peace sign
I'm free but I'm focused
I'm green but I'm wise
I'm hard but I'm friendly baby
I'm sad but I'm laughing
I'm brave but I'm chicken shit
I'm sick but I'm pretty baby
What it all boils down to
Is that no one's really got it figured out just yet
Cuz I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is playing the piano
What it all comes down to my friends
Is that everything's just fine fine fine
Cuz I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is hailing a taxi cab.....
