1. SO HAPPY

Put the bottle down, finally got somethin' to say
Take another look around and find someone else to play
(Needless to say) That you've got problems
(There's no fuckin' way) that I'm gonna solve them
(It's never the same) Every time you slip, then you fall down, down, down

Ever wonder what I been thinkin' about ?
I been thinkin' bout throwin' you out

I'm so happy about you (I'm fed up, so get up and get out)
I'm so happy now we're through (I'm fed up, so get up and get out)
I was so afraid, now you're gone away
Sent you packing, look who's laughin' now
I'm so happy that I feel this way
I'm so happy that I threw you away

Put your problems down and pick up what's left of the pain
Take a good look at yourself and see who's really to blame
(Needless to say) You got issues
(There's no fuckin' way) That I'm gonna fix you
(It's never the same) Ever since you went fallin' down, down, down

Ever wonder what i been thinkin' about ?
I been thinkin' bout throwin' you out

I'm so happy about you (I'm fed up, so get up and get out)
I'm so happy now we're through (I'm fed up, so get up and get out)
I was so afraid, now you're gone away
Sent you packing, look who's laughin' now
I'm so happy that I feel this way
I'm so happy that I threw you away

I'm so happy about you (I'm fed up, so get up and get out)
I'm so happy now we're through (I'm fed up, so get up and get out)
I was so afraid, now you're gone away
Sent you packing, look who's laughin' now
I'm so happy that I feel this way
I'm so happy that I threw you away


2. BY THE WAY

A note by the door
Simply explains
It's all that remains
It's no wonder why
I have not slept in days
The dust on the floor
Piled up from the years
All those scars and souvenirs
Now that you're gone
It's easy to see
But so hard to believe

By the way
You left without saying
Goodbye to me
Now that you're gone away
All I can think about is
You and me
You and me

It's not like before
You left nothing here
It's all disappeared
It hurts me to see
That we've been a lie
Would it have hurt you to try?

By the way
You left without saying
Goodbye to me
Now that you're gone away

All I can think about is
You and me
You and me

It's sad to say that
This pain is killing me inside
But it's time to say
That this pain is keeping me alive
Twisting and turning
It rips through my heart
It's been tearing me apart

By the way
You left without saying
Goodbye to me
Now that you're gone away
All I can think about is
You and me
You and me

All i think about now
Is you and me
You and me
All i think about now
Is you and me
You and me

By the way
By the way
By the way


3. GOT IT MADE

Theres no time for a suitcase
Just grab a quick
Change of clothes.
You ask where we're going now honey.
Well, id tell ya but nobody knows.
So sneak out the back door
Cuz you know they'll try to make you stay.
Make sure you gotta a seatbelt on
Cuz were heading for the interstate.

We're having the best time living the fast life
Thinking were just too damn young to die
Ain't waiting for next time to see all the Bright lights,
To see it all.
We'll drive in the fast lane out on the freeway
Tell us to slow down starts a car chase.
As long as we've got each other we've
Got it made.

Pulled over to the side of the road
Going skinny dipping in the dark.
Must've left the radio on
We had to push the car to get it to start
Cruising down on sunset.
Then went racing up Mohulland drive.
There we stopped at the world
Oh, I never felt so alive

We're having the best time living the fast life
Thinking were just too damn young to die
Ain't waiting for next time to see all the Bright lights,
To see it all.
We'll drive in the fast lane out on the freeway
Tell us to slow down starts a car chase.
As long as we've got each other we've
Got it made.

Now we're running on empty
We've got no place to go
We've been sleeping in the back seat
Just waiting for the sun to show
Low on cash, the tape deck's broke
Thinking of heading home
But I can tell by the smile on your face
That we've still got miles to go.

We're having the best time living the fast life
Thinking were just too damn young to die
Ain't waiting for next time to see all the Bright lights,
To see it all.
We'll drive in the fast lane out on the freeway
Tell us to slow down starts a car chase.
As long as we've got each other we've
Got it made.

We've got it made
We've got it made


4. NOT MEANT TO BE

It's never enough to say I'm sorry
It's never enough to say I care
But I'm caught between what you wanted from me
And knowing that if I give that to you
I might just disappear

Nobody wins when everyone's losing

It's like one step forward and two steps back
No matter what I do you're always mad
And I, I can't change your mind
I know it's like trying to turn away one way street
I can't give you what you want
And it's killing me
And I, I'm starting to see
Maybe we're not meant to be

It's never enough to say I love you
No, it's never enough to say I try
It's hard to believe
That's theres no way out for you and me
And it seems to be the story of our lives

Nobody wins when everyone's losing

It's like one step forward and two steps back
No matter what I do you're always mad
And I, I can't change your mind
I know it's like trying to turn away one way street
I can't give you what you want
And it's killing me
And I, I'm starting to see
Maybe we're not meant to be

There's still time to turn this around
You could building this up instead of tearing it down
But I keep thinking
Maybe it's too late

It's like one step forward and two steps back
No matter what I do you're always mad
And I, I can't change your mind
I know it's like trying to turn away one way street
I can't give you what you want
And it's killing me
And I, I'm starting to see
Maybe we're not meant to be

It's like one step forward and two steps back
No matter what I do you're always mad
And I, baby I'm sorry to see
Maybe we're not meant to be


5. CRUTCH

Please can I go home now, I can barely stay awake
But you sit there with your pride and kill us all.
You have so much fun now trying to bend me till I break
And I just set myself up to take the fall.
Your eyes are black as tar and to look at you is hard
But I'm just too afraid to look away.
Misery loves company and here you stand in front of me.
Just please don't ask me to stay

So, who do you trust?
Now that you need me to get through the day
I'm asking too much.
To have you hear what I have to say
So I say

Help me help you, I'm down on my knees
If you need me so much then why did you leave
You needed a reason, you needed too much.
You can lean on me, but don't lean
On me like I'm your crutch.

You never started loving me so you could never quit
I could rule this fuckin world and you'd still think I'm shit
You've turned your back on me, have no family
In the end the devil gets what he deserves

So, who do you trust now that you
Need me to get through the day?
I'm asking too much,
To have you hear what I have to say

So I say

Help me help you, I'm down on my knees
If you need me so much then why did you leave
You needed a reason, you needed too much.
You can lean on me, but don't lean
On me like I'm your crutch.

Please help me. please help me
Please help me. please help me

So, who do you trust now that you
Need me to get through the day?
I'm asking too much,
To have you hear what I have to say

So I say

Help me help you, I'm down on my knees
If you need me so much then why did you leave
You needed a reason, you needed too much.
You can lean on me, but don't lean
On me like I'm your crutch.

Don't lean on me like I'm your crutch


6. ALL OR NOTHING

When i first saw you standing there
You know it was a little hard not to stare
So nervous when i drove you home
I know being apart is a little hard to bare.

Send some flowers to your work an home
So that i will have you in my arms again
We kissed that night before i left
And now thats something
I could never forget

You've got all that i need
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and i
With you i know that
I am good for something
So lets go give it a try
We got our backs against the ocean
It's just us against the world
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and i
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and i

Lets take a chance go far away today
And never look back again
Since i said i loved you in Las vegas
It's never been the same since then

You've got all that i need
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and i

With you i know
I am good for something
So lets go give it a try
We got our backs against the ocean
It's just us against the world
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and i
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and i

This is it nothing to hide
One more kiss never say goodbye
This is it babe your all mine
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and i
I know that i am good for something
So lets go give it a try
We got our backs against the ocean
It's just us against the world
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and i
With you i know that
I am good for something
So lets go give it a try

We got our backs against the ocean
It's just us against the world
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and i
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and i
Babe it's you and i


7. HEAVEN

Heaven
Now don't you be afraid
We can always talk about
No need to medicate
Cuz I know you're strong without it
You got me through the days
When I thought I couldn't face it
Let me count the ways
The love we have you can replace it

Just hold on, I'm not that strong

There's a little piece of heaven
Right here where you are
He fact that you keep trying
Is what sets you apart.
Help me find the reason
And I'll help you find the way
To get rid of all your pain
Little by little, day by day

Now, you're far away
And I'm alone to cry about it
It's not a better place,
When you die and leave me here to say

Hold on, I was never that strong

There's a little piece of heaven
Right here where you are
He fact that you keep trying
Is what sets you apart.
Help me find the reason
And I'll help you find the way
To get rid of all your pain
Little by little, day by day

You'll get stronger
If you need me, I'm not far away
So, just hold on
I'll help you find a way
I'll help you find the way

There's a little piece of heaven
Right here where you are
He fact that you keep trying
Is what sets you apart.
Help me find the reason
And I'll help you find the way
To get rid of all your pain
Little by little, day by day

Little by little, day by day


8. BAD GIRLFRIEND

My Girlfriend's a dick magnet My Girlfriend's gotta have it
She's hot, can't stop, up on stage, doing shots, Tip the man he'll
Ring the bell, get her drunk she'll scream like hell.
Dirty girl, gettin' down, dance with guys from outta town.
Grab her ass, actin' tough. Mess with her, she'll fuck you up.
No one really knows if she's drunk or if she's stoned, but she's
Comin' back to my place tonite!

She likes to shake her ass she grinds it to the beat
She likes to pull my hair when I make her grind her teeth
I like to strip her down she's naughty to the end
You know what she is, no doubt about it
She's a bad, bad girlfriend!

Red thong, Party's on, Love this song, sing along.
Come together, leave alone, see you later back at home
No one really knows if she's drunk or is she's stoned
But she's coming back to my place tonite. I say
No one really knows just how far she's gonna go,
But I'm gonna find out later tonite

She likes to shake her ass she grinds it to the beat
She likes to pull my hair when I make her grind her teeth
I like to strip her down she's naughty to the end
You know what she is, no doubt about it
She's a bad, bad girlfriend!

Doesn't take her long to make things right.
But does it make her wrong to
Have the time of her life. the time of her life
My girlfriend's a dick magnet My girlfriend's gotta have it

She's a gold digger now you figure out it's over, pull the trigger.
Futures finished, there it went, savings gone,
The money spent

I look around and all I see is, no good, bad and ugly,
Man she's hot and fixed to be, the future
Ex-Miss Connolly!

She likes to shake her ass she grinds it to the beat
She likes to pull my hair when I make her grind her teeth
I like to strip her down she's naughty to the end
You know what she is, no doubt about it
She's a bad, bad girlfriend!

She's a bad, bad girlfriend.
She's a bad, bad girlfriend.


9. HATE MY LIFE

So sick of the hobos always begging for change
I don't like how I gotta work and
They just sit around and get paid
I hate all of the people who can't drive their cars.
Bitch you better get outta the way
Before I start falling apart

I hate how my wife is always up my ass
She always wants to buy brand new things
But I don't have the cash.

I hate my job, all of my rich friends
I hate everyone to the bitter end.
Nothing turns out right There's no end in sight
I hate my life!

How come I never get laid nice guys always lose.
How could she have another headache
There's always some kind of excuse
I still hate my job, my boss is a dick
"I don't get paid nearly enough
To put up with all of your shit"

I hate my job, all of my rich friends
I hate everyone to the bitter end.
Nothing turns out right There's no end in sight
I hate my life!

I hate that I can't tell when a girl's underage,
You know, I tell her she's a nice piece of ass,
Then her daddy punches me in the face

So if you're pissed like me
Bitches, here's what you gotta do
Put your middle fingers up in the air
Go on and say "Fuck you!"

I hate my job, all of my rich friends
I hate everyone to the bitter end.
Nothing turns out right There's no end in sight
I hate my life!

So much at stake, can't catch a break
I hate my life
No, it's nothing new hear "it sucks to be you"
I fuckin hate my life


10. LITTLE SMIRK

If heaven is a place where the angels go,
Well then I've got a story to tell,
If heaven is a place where the angels go,
Then I guess you're going straight to hell!

Don't wanna leave you now or never,
Cause we're perfect together,
Never wanna be apart,
Dead to take on the simple life.

There was trouble for us when I came home early,
Never would expect to see this,
Its fit to say I could not believe my eyes,
You cracked a smile but had nothing to say,
So I made a list of on how you're going to pay!

I Locked you out,
Left you naked in the front yard,
Burned all of your clothes,
Having nothing can't be really hard,
Now I'm on the run,
I'd do it all again,
So Catch me if you can,
Cause, I took your car,
With your baby in the back seat,
Cracked your credit card,
Doing ten to deadbeat,
Baby now you know how much it hurts,
When I caught you in the act wearing nothing but a Little Smirk!

Now I feel better,
But its hard to forget,
I never think about looking back,
Cause time has no meaning when your free,
This is what you get,
Come on bitch,
Now I see who you really are,
Cause happiness is the best we've had,
But caught red daddy with a grin on your face,
Didn't think you'd be easy to replace!

I Locked you out,
Left you naked in the front yard,
Burned all of your clothes,
Having nothing can't be really hard,
Now I'm on the run,
I'd do it all again,
So Catch me if you can,
Cause, I took your car,
With your baby in the back seat,
Cracked your credit card,
Doing ten to deadbeat,
Baby now you know how much it hurts,
When I caught you in the act wearing nothing but a Little Smirk!

Again and again and again and again and e-yeah....

If heaven is a place where the angels go,
Well then I've got a story to tell,
If heaven is a place where the angels go,
Then I know I'm going straight to hell!

I Locked you out,
Left you naked in the front yard,
Burned all of your clothes,
Having nothing can't be really hard,
Now I'm on the run,
I'd do it all again,
So Catch me if you can,
Cause, I took your car,
With your baby in the back seat,
Cracked your credit card,
Doing ten to deadbeat,
Baby now you know how much it hurts,
When I caught you in the act wearing nothing but a Little Smirk!
Wearing nothing but a Little Smirk!


11. END OF THE SUMMER

Here we are
At the end
Say goodbye to all your friends
Here we go waching the sun go round
Sitting on a roodtop making time stop
I never want to come back down never want to come down

Its the end of the summer
Its the end of it all
Those days are gone its over now were moving on
Its the end of the summer
But we'll see it all again
So hold on till this moment till then
Its the end of the summer

Here we stand
In the middle of an empty street
Tell me where you want to go
I'll tell you thats where i want to be
Say goodbye to the warm breeze
We could be almost anywhere
Ill miss you till the next time
I hope i see you there
I hope i see you back here.

Its the end of the summer
Its the end of it all
Those days are gone its over now were moving on
Its the end of the summer
But we'll see it all again
So hold on till this moment till then
Its the end of the summer end of the summer

Rides almost over
Its getting colder
Take one last look
Before it passes by befor it passes you by

Its the end of the summer
Its the end of it all
Those days are gone its over now were moving on
Its the end of the summer
But we'll see it all again
So hold on till this moment till then
Its the end of the summer
[repeat x2]

End of the summer


12. WAIT FOR ME

You are not alone tonight
Imagine me there by your side
It's so hard to be here so far away from you
I'm counting the days till
I'm finally done
I'm counting them down, yeah, one by one
It feels like forever till I return to you
But it helps me on those lonely nights
It's that one thing that keeps me alive

[Chorus:]
Knowing that you wait for me
Ever so patiently

No one else knows the feeling inside
We hang up the phone without saying goodnight
Because it's the sound of your voice that brings me home
It's never been easy to say
But it's easier when I've gone away

[Chorus:]
Knowing that you wait for me
Ever so patiently
Yeah, you're everything I've ever dreamed of having and
It's everything I need from you just knowing that you wait for me

[Bridge:]
What I'd give
What I'd do
Knowing I'm not there for you
Makes it so hard to leave
What I'd give
What I'd do
Anything to get me home to you
And this time I'll stay

And you wait for me
Ever so patiently
Yeah, you're everything I've ever dreamed of having and
It's everything I need from you just knowing that you wait for me


13. SACRIFICE

No I don't need a reason to be breathin
Just here doin what I can
No I don't want a family who would damn me
and resent everything I am
I don't need to prove to all the ones who
Feel that I need to fit in
No I won't ever tell you that i failed you
I'd rather start life over again

No I'm sorry to say
There'll be no sacrifice today

No I can see it clearly
Why you feel me
Why you got to bring me down
No I don't want to fight you
Just to spite you
But I'm not afraid to take you out

No I'm sorry to say
There'll be no sacrifice today

Everybody expects me to break
but i'll never break down again
Everybody expects me to give up
but you'll never see me givin in
Everybody wants me to lose
but i'll never lose who I am

No I'm sorry to say
There'll be no sacrifice today [X2]

Everybody expects me to break
but i'll never break down again
Everybody expects me to give up
but you'll never see me givin in
Everybody wants me to lose
but i'll never lose who I am

No I'm sorry to say
There'll be no sacrifice today [X2]

No sacrifice today [X2]
