How we gonna write this song
Should we go outside and talk
should we hide inside with the lights off
Pull the shades and turn the amps up
If the neighbors bitch who gives a darn
we’re gonna write this song
*****
We only need one song one song one song and we’ll make it, yeah
We only need one song one song one song and we’ll make it, yeah yeah
*****
So we both went to the park,
although it was pretty dark
we asked the mugger what he thinks of this riff
I didn’t like that watch anyway
I don’t care what they say
You need gear to make a song
*****
We’ll never write one song one song one song, we won’t make it, no
We’ll never write one song one song one song we won’t make it, no
And if we ever get the chance we’ll take it, yeah
we’ll never write one song one song one song we won’t make it, no no
*****
we dressed in suits and cut our hair
we even changed our underwear
now they’re listening and we’re just waiting
I wonder what they’re gonna say
Please just let this be okay
Cause they gotta like this song
*****
We only need one song one song one song and we’ll make it yeah
We only need one song one song one song and we’ll make it yeah
We finally wrote one song one song one song and we made it, yeah
We finally wrote one song one song one song and we made it, yeah
And all we ever had to do was fake it, yeah
We finally wrote one song one song one song and we made it, yeah yeah

When You've got Money
03:09
|
|||
Pull out my credit card to buy some coffee
Walk to my infinity the day is lovely
I owe someone my yearly salary
But it’s OK cause I’ll finally be happy
****
How will I know you’re thinking of me?
Buy me this or you don’t love me
Love is grand but lest we forget
It’s not who you are, it’s what you get
****
Chorus:
The more you have the more you’ll want
You’ll never save yourself with what you’ve got
Things will come and things will be gone
who’ll be left for you to lean on?
***
Now that all my money’s spent
My life begins it’s great ascent
I’ll get all I’m anticipating
Pretty soon but I’m still waiting
****
Never saw her and it never stressed me
I bought her things but she still left me
Broke and happy, that seems funny
Don’t need no one when you got money
****
Chorus
****
Debt and all that it entails
Lateness fees it never fails
I’ll try to pay back everyone
Can’t help but wonder what have I done?
****
Chorus

Be Kind Rewind
03:19
|
|||
How convenient to be inconvenienced
Easy’s been harder but l do it anyway
I don’t belong here, but maybe nobody knows
I could walk away, but pain builds character
CHORUS:
When you think that everything is screwed
Live your life, don’t let your life live you
Choose to take the leap or fall in line
Or when life’s done just push rewind
Be kind, rewind
Be kind
*****
I’ve done this before, it’s still the same
I’m done wondering what I’m doing here
I never knew just where I should go but
I dreamed about the future and it’s all becoming clear
*****
CHORUS
*****
We love to live in our own misery
You’re locked in jail and swallowed your own key
Nobody’s listening, but everyone’s saying it
please someone tell me what the hell’s going on here
*****
So head to your 9 to 5 that you love to despise
Go see that guy who’s not the one
We’re all gonna die
*****
CHORUS

You'd Better Quit
03:39
|
|||
Always do what you are told to
They all know what’s best for you
stay in line don’t even blink
Then you’ll know just how to think
Try to blend in all you can
You won’t have to make a plan
Wait for life to happen to you
Follow them, don’t think it through
If you’re questioned, give them answers
Better not forget your manners
Tell them what they want to hear
your problems and you disappear
*****
CHORUS
This is your mind with someone else’s thoughts
This is your heart living someone else’s dream
Don’t you worry about a thing, just close your eyes.
It’s safe here. They would never lie to you. Would they?
****
Always take the easy way
Or who knows what they’ll say
If no one else is doing it
That just means you’d better quit
Never question why and how
Only ask what they’ll allow
shrink your mind down to a pebble
can’t be accepted and a rebel
If they’re laughing, go along
Even when you think it’s wrong
Let the words remain unspoken
Fixing things just means you’re broken
****
Chorus

Leave Me Alone
03:10
|
|||
You can call, you can text
you can make me a movie with special effects
you can do me a dance and then beg for applause
go tell everybody how mean I was, but
the door is closed
you say you don't know why but you know you know
So baby listen to the silence
I think you've mistaken love for compliance
****
CHORUS
Leave me alone
when will you see that the venue is closed
what goes on in here you don't even know
you think you're the director but you never even
saw the show
****
You can send me back all of my records and tapes
and you'll never admit that you made one mistake
burn all of my stuff that you had that was mine
stick pins in my pictures and baby that's fine
trash my reputation but it's never gonna change the situation
you're not on the list
you won't get in the club so try getting the gist
****
CHORUS
****
Come on... come on...
****

Played

I wish you would have said something
That's what she said to me
She'd fallen since we met and that's the irony
Now it's much too late
You're leaving here now
I built a wall when I should have torn it down
And I want you to know
****
CHORUS
I thought It'd make me win the game but all I did was play myself
I've only got me to blame now I'm alone all by myself
If I could go back I'd find a way to say what I was too scared to say
****
When I think about
What you could have been to me
And in my mind I keep inventing memories
Like the time that Gozer came
We had to cross the streams
When you sang to me
That Weezer song "Only In Dreams"
I still want you to know
****
CHORUS
****
I really want you to know
I should have told you so and
We should have been together
I'll be waiting here forever

Unattached
02:40
|
|||
Your mama warned you about me
described me with duplicity
(do what you want you're hated)
said I'll love you then I'll run
got my last guitar with a gun
(rumors of my life have been a little bit exaggerated)
****
See me out at 2:00 am
heard I'm all screwed up again
****
CHORUS
So judge me like you're Judy
you don't know me
keep talkin' like you knew me
YOU DON'T KNOW
all the talkin' sounds like
you don't know me
I'm really unattached to your speculation
****
Say my case has gone to trial
I'd love to listen for a while
(talkers always got a tale)
when the spotlight subsides
you'll feel the same way inside
(try to figure it out you'll fail)
So obsessed with who is dirty
you can't even keep your own hands clean
****
CHORUS

Stand Up
04:13
|
|||
This is the day I stand up
and leave them behind with their lies
this is the world I dreamed of
I can see it when I close me eyes
here is the time I gave up
but sunlight has broke through the grey
in this new age we will own it all and walk away
****
CHORUS
Keep on askin' why
people say goodbye
their world crumbles 'cause
they could never look inside
they won't see the light
so stay until you die
take of your shoes and waste away
I won't waste my life
****
The scars I bear now remind me that now I can breathe
You're still swimming but you might go under if you leave
they're so much to you you think I don't know what they've been
they will love you like the water that you're drowning in
****
CHORUS
****
In this prison presumed guilty
who are they to judge me
in the darkness claiming wrongs are right
they will always be thrown into the light
****
This is the day I stand up
and lord only know how I've tried
cover your eyes but know
that everything they touch will die
****
CHORUS

Holly
03:13
|
|||
Everyone says that you're great
but you're dirty and you're always late
and you're taking up all my time
but still I said Hollywood you be mine
I let you take the wheel of my heart
but the traffic's tearing me apart
and I know just why we're slowin down
everyone stares at nothing in this town
We're still inching towards the 101
can't remember the last time that this was fun
needless to say sorry girl I'm done
I'm tired of drivin I just wanna RUN!
****
CHORUS
Holly learn to drive
we'll never get off of the 405
If I don't leave your ass behind
we'll be stuck here 'til we die
****
I'm choking on your air
even though you've got stars everywhere
I still can't stand the way they stop and stare
forget about Llama School we'll never get there
lately you seem so fake
I think coming here was a huge mistake
I can't believe how much you've cost me
tried not to fight you but somehow you lost me
Everywhere we go it's such a drag
we're stuck together like the pages of a porno mag
all that's here is broken dreams
and that sign on the hill's not as great as it seems
****
CHORUS
****
Holly you've been driving me out of my mind
I won't get over it this time
I need to get away from you and all of your jive
you know I'm lucky to be alive
and knowing you I'll probably wanna see you sometime
to remind me why I said
Good Bye.
So Long.
See Ya.
*BEEP BEEP!*

Thanks for Listening
03:06
|
|||
You might go to bed with a clean conscience and a dirty mind
If you didn't hear us yet when you do you might find
You didn't know until you knew, it's ok if it makes you mad
Sometimes they're kind of catchy, the tunes aren't all that bad
If you found out who we are you might be playing our songs
If you can't tell what they're about just keep singing along
And if it captivates you, or if it echos your fears
We're so grateful it managed to get in your ears
****
CHORUS
We know you have a choice of bands to make your music, so thanks for listening to our interpretation
And you've heard all the rest, so we hope you're impressed
We really appreciate your appreciation
****
If you dig what you hear, turn it up don't turn it down
If you don't really like it, maybe later you'll come around
Try to listen again like it's the first time you've heard
Repeat the lyrics till the words sound absurd
If it's stuck in your head now, know that was my intention
If you noticed mistakes, we hope they're too small to mention
You need a record player. We hope that you get one
And if you don't get us after this album, maybe you will by the next one
****
CHORUS
**key change**
