Worst in Me

You bring out the Worst in Me
You bring out the Worst in Me
I was kind once upon a time
But you bring out the Worst in Me
You won’t let me get clean
Said you won’t let me get clean
You spread your taint like slick old paint
Now I just can’t get clean
So I tell you what I’m gonna do
I tell you what I’m gonna do
Gonna take some time to learn your slime
And I’ll bring out the Worst in you
I tell you what I’m gonna do
I tell you what I’m gonna do
Gonna take some time to learn your slime
And I’ll bring out the Worst in you

My Girlfriend's Back [she's back!]
Everybody go get er'
My Girlfriend's Back [she's back!]
Pretty little poinsetta
My Girlfriend's Back [back!]
Have all you boys met er'?
cause My Girlfriend's Back [in black!]
And she's feelin much better [mo' better mo' better!]
She needed time to be alone
Sort things through all on her own
Cause she was sick of comin home
To me
Then we sat down & talked about
How beyond a resonable doubt
It'd be best if I moved out
My Girlfriend's Back [she's back!]
Everybody go get er'
My Girlfriend's Back [she's back!]
Pretty little poinsetta
My Girlfriend's Back [back!]
Have all you boys met er'?
cause My Girlfriend's Back [in black!]
And she's feelin much better [mo' better mo' better!]
I try to tell her how I feel
I cry & beg for an appeal
But she's happy not to deal
With me
She's havin fun with all her friends
Playin house with all of them
Baby doll’s in the game again
My Girlfriend's Back [she's back!]
Everybody go get er'
My Girlfriend's Back [she's back!]
Pretty little poinsetta
My Girlfriend's Back [back!]
Have all you boys met er'?
cause My Girlfriend's Back [in black!]
And she's feelin much better [mo' better mo' better!]
She's so over me
And why shouldn't she be?
After all she's been through
All the things I'd do
Like take her out for a really good time
Like always go down then never get mine
But she's fine
She's b-b-b-back on the sce-ne
She's d-d, d-d-d, d-d-d, done with me-and-
My Girlfriend's Back [back!]
Everybody go get er'
My Girlfriend's Back [back!]
Pretty little poinsetta
My Girlfriend's Back [back!]
Have all you boys met er'?

duck, duck, GOOSE!
05:38
|
|||
I got stuck
Caught in the muck
Not a soul in sight
Then a bird flew bye
And I caught his eye
He stopped to set me right
He spoke real soft
& he cleaned me off
Like a magic wand
Said there’s games you play
A certain way
Out on the pond
So I sat down
All the ducks in rounds
All the swans estranged
Hopin I’d get tapped
Then my cricket snapped
And my whole life changed
I’m Big Bang
I’m right around the corner
I’m workin on critical mass
The wire inside the lightbulb’s hummin
It’s heating up the glass
I’m cleanin out the attic now, I’ve found all my excuses
And I’ve come outside to string em up like
Duck Duck Duck Gooses
Maybe you got picked
Maybe you’re the goose
The reddest of the roost
All your ducks in rows
But you’re all alone
You’re a saxaphone and the
Whole world blows
I’m Big Bang
I’m right around the corner
I’m workin on critical mass
The wire inside the lightbulb’s hummin
It’s heating up the glass
I’m cleanin out the attic now, I’ve found all my excuses
And I’ve come outside to string em up like
Duck Duck Duck Gooses
Well there’s paths you take
Then there’s paths you make
Yourself
Which one
Here he comes
Duck Duck Duck Duck…
Goose!
Goose!
I’m Big Bang
I’m right around the corner
I’m workin on critical mass
The wire inside the lightbulb’s hummin
It’s heating up the glass
I’m cleanin out the attic now, I’ve found all my excuses
And I’ve come outside to string em up like
Duck Duck Duck Gooses

16 (Nobody Told Me)
04:11
|
|||
I wanna make it with the girl at the bar
I wanna show her my big fancy car
Snatch her up right from under you fools
Set up a board game, break all the rules
I might pretend she’s my ex-girl’s sister
Pretend I only almost kissed her
Make her a home-made sexy pie
With the sugar on top and the cherry inside
Nobody Told Me you were an astronaut
Nobody Told Me you were a fiend
Nobody Told Me you had a bicycle
Nobody Told Me she was 16
I got a friend that I want her to meet
She’s getting wet but she’s bein discreet
She’s getting ready in the motel bathroom
Daddy’s showin up, shotgun shit fan boom
Nobody Told Me she was an astronaut
Nobody Told Me she was a fiend
Nobody Told Me she had a little pink huffy
Nobody Told Me that she was 16
All rise for the honorable judge
He Said boy here’s what I think of
These here charges bein filed againstcha
I’d do the same if she approached the bencha
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody Told Me she was an astronaut
Nobody Told Me she was a fiend
Nobody Told Me she had a bicycle
Nobody Told Me that she was 16
Nobody Told Me
Nobody Told Me
Nobody Told Me
Nobody Told Me

BIG Dream
04:02
|

You'll get ideas
Thinkin like that
Who ever told you
The world's not flat
Twasn't me my friend
Yeah it's me you can trust
Cause I've been to the edge
To see for myself
It was like one big
Department store shelf
And we're all on top just
Gatherin dust
Big Dream, Big Dream
Big Dream, Big Dream, Big Dream
[Big Dream, Big Dream, Big Dream]
See I knew Big Dream
When I was a kid
You wouldn't believe
The things we did
Thick as thieves we were
Thin as leaves in the wind
But I grew up
And no one could see
Big D but me
I must be crazy
Crazy
Couldn't've been
Big Dream, Big Dream
Big Dream, Big Dream, Big Dream
[It’s so big!]
Big Dream, Big Dream, Big Dream
Not a peep now
We're asleep now
Choose how deep now
Cause it's all a fantasy
That's all it's meant to be
It's all for you & me
It's always
Big Dream, Big Dream
Big Dream, Big Dream, Big Dream
Big Dream, Big Dream
Big Dream, Big Dream, Big Fuckin Dream

Sally Don't Lie
03:03

Sally don’t, work
Sally don’t even have a car
Sally’s got jerks
Lined up at the bar
But Sally don’t know
What you mean to me
& Sally won’t go
So Sally makes three
Sally Don’t Lie
She just tells fibs
Sally Don’t Lie
She’s just got dibs on my baby
Sally Don’t Lie
She just ain’t true
Sally Don’t Lie
To you
Sally moved in
Sally just needs a place to stay
And here Sally’s been
Since May
Sally don’t know
What you mean to me
& Sally won’t go
So Sally makes three
Sally Don’t Lie
She just tells fibs
Sally Don’t Lie
She just lives with my baby
Sally Don’t Lie
She just ain’t true
Sally Don’t Lie
To you
Maybe goin in
We both knew it
Maybe I was a phase
And you had to go through it
But I’d rather love and lose
Than not do it
So Sally Don’t Lie
Just tell fibs
Sally Don’t Lie
There’s things I can’t give my baby
Sally Don’t Lie
You know it’s true
Sally Don’t Lie
She loves you
Sally Don’t Lie
Sally Don’t Lie
Sally Don’t Lie
Take good care of my baby
Sally Don’t Lie
Sally Don’t Lie
Sally Don’t Lie
Take good care of my baby

Always the Bridesmaid
03:09
|
|||
It started off with one
We got it in the mail
We RSVP’d
They served quail
Then everyone we knew
Was suddenly engaged
Except me and you
And our gay friend Page
When they ask
When’s yours and mine
You laugh it off
With the same old line
Always the Bridesmaid
[Never the Bride
Never the Bride]
Always the Bridesmaid
[Never the Bride
Never the Bride]
Always the Bridesmaid
[Never the Bride
Never the Bride]
Always the Bridesmaid
[Never the Bride
Never the Bride]
I swallowed that while
But the cake got stale
Cause I’d see your face
Beneath every veil
We broke up
When I proposed
But we’re still friends
And no one knows
When they ask
When’s yours and mine
You laugh it off
With the same old line
Always the Bridesmaid
[Never the Bride
Never the Bride]
Always the Bridesmaid
[Never the Bride
Never the Bride]
Always the Bridesmaid
[Never the Bride
Never the Bride]
Always the Bridesmaid
[Never the Bride
Never the Bride]
But it’s gonna catch up
And that poofy teal dress you wore
Ain’t gonna fit no more
No it ain’t gonna fit no more
And finally you’ll see
That you shoulda married me
Cause I’ll be on MTV
And You’ll Always be
Always the Bridesmaid
[Never the Bride
Never the Bride]
Always the Bridesmaid
[Never the Bride
Never the Bride]
Always the Bridesmaid
[Never the Bride
Never the Bride]
Always the Bridesmaid
[Never the Bride
Never the Bride]

She Doesn't Know
05:39
|

Maybe you love her
Maybe you don’t
Maybe she’ll notice
Maybe she won’t
Maybe she’s all you need
Maybe she’s not
She doesn’t know just yet
And it’s not my place
She doesn’t know just yet
And it’s not my place
She doesn’t know
He went to the movies
He went out to eat
I’ll give him the message
I’m bein discreet
Cause maybe she’s all you need
Maybe she’s not
She doesn’t know just yet
And it’s not my place
She doesn’t know just yet
And it’s not my place
She doesn’t know
What she don’t know
Can’t hurt her
Sticks and stones break bones
But words are murder
Maybe I love her
Maybe I don’t
Maybe she’ll notice
Maybe she won’t
Maybe she’s all I need
Maybe she’s not
She doesn’t know just yet
And it’s not my place
She doesn’t know just yet
And it’s not my place
She doesn’t know
Just yet
Just yet
Just yet

Dirty Bluz
02:54
|
|||
Santiago ain’t got money
Got no honey
Might sound funny but it’s true
But there’s five or six old ladies
Holdin babies
In the counties he’s passed through
Girls say he’s got a gift
Women say that he’s a drifter
And all the men just know
He had to go down
Play them Dirty Bluz
He had to go down
He had to go down
Play them Dirty Bluz
He had to go down
Wednesday nights he gets his fix
Down on sixth
He picks and scratch like hell
All the people tap their foot and
Melt like puddin
But he’s still lookin they can’t tell
Girls say he’s got a gift
Women say that he’s a drifter
And all the men just know
He had to go down
Play them Dirty Bluz
He had to go down
He had to go down
Play them Dirty Bluz
He had to go down
Santi dissapeared one night
Just like he always does
Three sheets to the wind they say
But for Santi that’s just buzzed
Found him on the high way
16 miles outside town
Wrapped his car around a tree
No brake marks on the ground
Girls say he had a gift
Women say he was a drifter
And all the men just know
He had to go down
Play them Dirty Bluz
He had to go down
He had to go down
Play them Dirty Bluz
He had to go down

Your Mountain
03:10
|
|||
You knew the rocks at every pass
You knew the flowers, you knew the grass
You even knew that I would ask
What trails and runs you like to take
And may I walk them in your wake
It wouldn’t be much room to make
And so you granted me a place
On Your Mountain
And I kept up as best I could
But the more I climbed, the higher you stood
And I saw the forest for the wood
Soon it all turned black and white
I shouted left, you shouted right
And you left one morning at first light
And I was stranded on the face
Of Your Mountain
You have your own great heights to climb
But I’ll always think of you as mine
And if you look back you will find
That I’ll be standing at the base
And I will stay here, just in case
You ever need my help to face
Your Mountain

Doubt stopped to rest on my shoulder
But he got comfortable there
He had time to spare
And I was too weak to care
So he moved in
Now spite and envy
They call me
They’re friendly
Say they’d be happy
To drop by
The Neighborhood
There Goes the Neighborhood
Look who moved in
Now hate bought the house that trust lived in
He says he won’t bite
But he tries to pick fights
And I’m scared that he might
Hurt someone in
The Neighborhood
There Goes the Neighborhood
Look who moved in
They’re singing their lies and I can’t fall asleep
It’s getting to where
It’s starting to
Wear me down
Fear around here he’s respected
Well connected
Protected
And he got elected
To run
The Neighborhood
There Goes the Neighborhood
Look who moved in

she whispers in the kitchen
she whispers in the den
but there ain't no whispers
passed tween hens
she goin out late
she comin home thin
and there ain't no fury
like the one i'm in
ain't no
ain't no
ain't no fury
ain't no
ain't no
ain't no fury
now when her lips get swelled
her lips get tight
so i follow her out
with the dark headlights
found em in atlanta
yeah i caught em in a room
and there ain't no fury
like a twelve in bloom
ain't no
ain't no
ain't no fury
ain't no
ain't no
ain't no fury
now the bible in the corner
says ya shalt not sin
and they shalt not nuthin
not never agin
but there ain't no fury
when they put you away
and you're sittin round waitin
on judgement day
ain't no
ain't no
ain't no fury
ain't no
ain't no
ain't no fury

soldier

he’s blessed, he’s praying
a test, is all it is
he kneels, he’s straying
he feels the problem’s his
he’s a Soldier
he’s a Soldier
fighting himself
he wades, he’s cleansing
crusades against the war
he dies, pretending
he cries against my skin
my skin
he’s a Soldier
he’s a Soldier
he’s a Soldier
fighting himself
then he blames me
says I should be ashamed to be
what I am
a fag like me
has no right to be
in his God’s plan
he calls, he’s desperate
to talk about the war
i don’t pick up the phone
he's a Soldier
you’re the Soldier
fight it yourself

lamb
06:36

a wound is a funny thing
a funny thing
to understand
and love is an empty sling
an empty sling
in the wounded’s hand
the line has always been
has always been
between love and loss
and if that line wears thin
that line wears thin
you move on a cross
she said you’re gonna be my lamb
you’re gonna be my sacrifice
you’re gonna be my lamb
you’re gonna be my jesus christ
you’re gonna be my lamb
you’re gonna be my sacrifice
you’re gonna be my lamb
you’re gonna be my lamb tonight
time we carefully fill
we carefully fill
to escape our past
well Rome took years to build
took years to build
but it fell fast
she said you’re gonna be my lamb
you’re gonna be my sacrifice
you’re gonna be my lamb
you’re gonna be my jesus christ
you’re gonna be my lamb
you’re gonna be my sacrifice
you’re gonna be my lamb
you’re gonna be my lamb tonight
those who live to fight
who live to fight
another day
are stars without much light
without much light
to take away
she said you’re gonna be my lamb
you’re gonna be my sacrifice
you’re gonna be my lamb
you’re gonna be my jesus christ
you’re gonna be my lamb
you’re gonna be my sacrifice
you’re gonna be my lamb
you’re gonna be my lamb tonight
