ST. VITUS DANCE Finally feeling good for the first time in years It must be you, you're happiness dear I've forgotten all the things that bring me down for now... Still looking for that 9 to 5 faith When I thought my whole life never would change And everything I'd ever want or need Could be sung over a rock'n'roll beat With some things you've said you've broke my heart But that's okay, sometimes worlds fall apart Who am I to say it should stop and wait 'Till I can handle it better Still looking for that 9 to 5 faith When I thought my whole life never would change And everything I'd ever want or need Could be sung over a rock'n'roll beat Everybody loves you If you keep it a little dumb If 2 and 2 add up to 5 They'll shower you with love She said if things were different Then I might've had a chance To have and kiss and hold her Beneath St. Vitus Dance Still looking for that 9 to 5 faith When I thought my whole life never would change And everything I'd ever want or need Could be sung over a rock'n'roll beat Everybody loves you If you keep it a little dumb If 2 and 2 add up to 5 They'll shower you with love She said if things were different Then I might've had a chance To have and kiss and hold her Beneath St. Vitus Dance

GETTING TOO OLD Getting too old for this Getting too old for this Just boys making noise and at this point it seems silly To think we're relevant to the youth in this city So I bought a guitar and I took it so far I did what I could just like a good boy should I thought I had a plan, the answer was a band Except nobody really cared Getting too old for this Getting too old for this Just boys making noise and at this point it seems silly To think we're relevant to the youth in this city People in this town they are bringing me down And I gotta get out and I gotta get around Now everybody's moving, but nobody's doing The work that needs to get done Getting too old for this Getting too old for this Just boys making noise and at this point it seems silly To think we're relevant to the youth in this city Getting so over this! Getting so over this! Getting so over this! Getting so over this! The bottom of the barrel isn't where I want to be But it just sorta happened 'cause it came so easily I gotta get up, so I don't get down And I gotta get over myself Getting too old for this Getting too old for this Just boys making noise and at this point it seems silly To think we're relevant to the youth in this city Getting so over this! Getting so over this! Getting so over this! Getting so over this! Getting too old for this...

Manscaping 02:24
MANSCAPING I got the fur, I got the burn I got a razor and a scissor and I'm willing to learn How to control, this chest afro And I ain't gonna quit for as long as it grows A little off the top, I can't stop... Manscaping - Living the life Manscaping - I did it for my wife Manscaping - It doesn't make me gay And if it did, well - you know that that's okay! When I go out, the kids they shout And they act like a bear from the zoo has gotten out They find it scary, that I'm so hairy But if they wanna get freaked I'll introduce’em to Larry Some men are show-ers, I'm a grower... Manscaping - Living the life Manscaping - I did it for my wife Manscaping - It doesn't make me gay And if it did, well - you know that that's okay! I got the fur, I got the burn I got a razor and a scissor and I'm willing to learn How to control, this chest afro And I ain't gonna quit for as long as it grows Manscaping - Living the life Manscaping - I did it for my wife Manscaping - It doesn't make me gay And if it did, well - you know that that's okay! Manscaping - Living the life Manscaping - I did it for my wife Manscaping - It doesn't make me gay And if it did, well - you know that that's okay!

FREMDENFÜHRER She comes out at night and shows me herself She shows me more than anyone else And part of her is so unrequited Part of her is so undecided By a world that ate her up... La di di - da di da dum Where did you go and what did you say? Along the way I made a mistake Like a tear on the autobahn, a ghost in the night I know what I've done and I know what is right I'd love to try and lock her up Lord knows I've tried to knock her up And I'd like to keep her somewhere she'll always be safe Put her somewhere where she won't misbehave 'Cause I know that the world is cold, cruel and tough... La di di - da di da dum Where did you go and what did you say? Along the way I made a mistake Like a tear on the autobahn, a ghost in the night I know what I've done and I know what is right Things aren't as bad as they seem Things aren't as bad I like to believe Things aren't as bad as they say Loneliness when she goes away She tells me secrets, promises and tries To give me hope through her lies There's much of me that likes to feel needed Is to her that likes to feel cheated By a world that ate her up... La di di - da di da dum Where did you go and what did you say? Along the way I made a mistake Like a tear on the autobahn, a ghost in the night I know what I've done and I know what is right Where did you go and what did you see? I never believed it could happen to me Like a tear on the autobahn a ghost in the night I know what I've done and I know what is right

Soon Enough 03:06
SOON ENOUGH Lucky stars - appearing in my hometown Where the girls are always willing Boys act out just to make sound But the girls they love to chase the feelin' Morning comes - as simple as it seems These days I don't feel like me Resignation stopped taking my calls And I'm holding my breath waiting for the showdown Crimson tide a flood of innocence A mess amongst exquisiteness I jumped the shark I know But still I just can't let it go (and) Fast break - my minds on trial Slow down - my hearts on file Something as simple as you think Has a way of making you sink Soon enough you'll come back into my arms And I will take you back 'cause you broke my heart Soon enough you'll crawl back to me 'Cause I can tell that you never ever wanted to leave Lucky stars - burn down and break my heart They had a chance to take me down easy And I felt the world separate And I saw the people congregating Last stand - I'm looking towards the past (and) Sometimes I want to pretend (that) Breakaway from the myths and the man The smallest victory within my hand (and) The folly of God is ready and willing These pills are making me dizzy A cool breeze pushed me down to pulled me up And I witnessed that magic touch (and) A broken heart and a shattered past Are two things which will not last (and) I know someday you’ll come around And when you do, you know I'll be found Soon enough you'll come back into my arms And I will take you back 'cause you broke my heart Soon enough you'll crawl back to me 'Cause I can tell that you never ever wanted to leave Morning comes as the dawn breaks loose And I can tell that you never wanted to lose Darkness comes as the sky fades to black And I can tell you never turned your back On what we were, what there was, just because... Soon enough you'll come back into my arms And I will take you back 'cause you broke my heart Soon enough you'll crawl back to me 'Cause I can tell that you never ever wanted to leave Soon enough you'll come back into my arms And I will take you back 'cause you broke my heart Soon enough you'll crawl back to me 'Cause I can tell that you never ever wanted to leave Soon enough!

ALL YOUR FRIENDS I never bet against you It's just that the deck is stacked And the jokes you call your friends Are always gnawing at your back And they make it sound so simple How everything's extreme They'll tell you where you're wanted But they won't tell you what they mean All your friends (all your friends) Will let you down And when you need'em most They're never found Don't look me in the eyes And tell me you can't change Don't act like you're the only one Who's ever felt this way Don't ask for my advice 'Cause you know what to do You can't make the same mistakes Expecting something new All your friends (all your friends) Will sell you out And when you need'em most They're never found It's no secret - it's your life And that I can't do much more than criticize When you need some help we're here for you But nothing will change your attitude All your friends (all your friends) Will let you down And when you need'em most They're never found

Toy Store 02:57
TOY STORE When I met her she was falling apart I collected her pieces and sent for her heart She was made out of glue and made in Taiwan Assembled from plastics, but molded all wrong I wanted her to stay and spend the night The price tag said, "For forty bucks she's yours for life" With a Velcro dress and those silicon lips A go-go style, a candy-coated virgin At the toy store's where I lost my heart At the toy store's where it all came apart With lips as sweet as candy, oh how I love her madly At the toy store's where I lost my heart Like all things she began to fade And I would look at her less and less each day That elegant hair and those perky breasts Began to droop, I must confess That brings me to the point of this song Don't go looking for love in a catalog And don't mail a check unless you can pay 'Cause a heartache is only a toy store away At the toy store's where I lost my heart At the toy store's where it all came apart With lips as sweet as candy, oh how I love her madly At the toy store's where I lost my heart

Pincushion 02:48
PINCUSHION Pincushion (pincushion) in my head Pincushion (pincushion) in my head Pincushion (pincushion) in my head Pincushion (pincushion) in my head I've been biting my tongue 'cause I wanna make it clear That the proof is in the pudding and the judgment is severe And you can run around in circles 'till you run out of breath Hide behind excuses or get lost in excess And you can talk talk talk 'till you're blue in the face But if you can't walk the walk then get out of the way 'Cause there's always something better and there's always someone new Hiding in the shadows and wanting to tear you in two You can look me in the eye and feign to be sincere But when push comes to shove intentions are quite clear And you can fool yourself thinking that you're doing something right Say what you want if it helps you sleep at night And you can talk talk talk 'till you're blue in the face But if you can't walk the walk then get out of the way 'Cause there's always something better and there's always someone new Hiding in the shadows and wanting to tear you in two Pincushion (pincushion) in my head Pincushion (pincushion) in my head Pincushion (pincushion) in my head Pincushion (pincushion) in my head Everybody thinks they've got something new to say Everybody wants the glory, no one wants to pay Everybody thinks they've got something new to say Everybody wants the glory, but when push comes to shove they always go away! I've been biting my tongue 'cause I wanna make it clear That the proof is in the pudding and the judgment is severe And you can run around in circles 'till you run out of breath Hide behind excuses or get lost in excess And you can talk talk talk 'till you’re blue in the face But if you can't walk the walk then get out of the way 'Cause there's always something better and there's always someone new Hiding in the shadows and wanting to tear you in two Pincushion (pincushion) in my head Pincushion (pincushion) in my head Pincushion (pincushion) in my head Pincushion (pincushion) in my head Pincushion (pincushion) in my head Pincushion (pincushion) in my head Pincushion (pincushion) in my head Pincushion (pincushion) in my head Pincushion (pincushion) in my head

Waiting 06:31
WAITING I was waiting for a moment, but it never quite hit me I was looking through the sights, but the glasses didn't fit me I thought it was a matter of simple wrong or right But truth be told there are no black or whites I was waiting for a hand, but the glove didn't fit me I thought I was chosen, but no one ever picked me And I thought I was different from everyone else But it turns out I was only kidding myself It seems the sweetest things in life Have a way of changing your mind And the hopes you craved and the dreams you savored Have a way of explaining your behavior I was young I was on my own Thought I was tough enough to face it alone But as the days rolled back and the years flew by Seems like I was only wasting my time I was waiting for the magic, but they never quite tricked me I thought only a fool could believe so easily I knew they pulled a rabbit from a hat with two floors I had to show'em all that I knew the score I was dressed in my best looking humbled and content I had an eager flare exuding confidence But when the count came down to how it oughta be I was left at the doorway searching for the key It seems the sweetest things in life Have a way of changing your mind And the hopes you craved and the dreams you savored Have a way of explaining your behavior I was young I was on my own Thought I was tough enough to face it alone But as the days rolled back and the years flew by Seems like I was only wasting my time It seems the sweetest things in life Have a way of changing your mind And the hopes you craved and the dreams you savored Have a way of explaining your behavior I was young I was on my own Thought I was tough enough to face it alone But as the days rolled back and the years flew by Seems like I was only wasting my time DISCONNECT "I'm a good girl," she says as I pass her by But I'm certain that this is a lie Because good girls don't ever need to try To sound innocuous And I question what's running through her head Is she lonely, hurting or depressed? Is she tired trying to impress Thee fictitious void And I wonder if it's all in my mind Or maybe it's been this way through all time I don't when the disconnect set in But I hope that we can connect again Scanning through the FM stations Caught in the same static conversations With the diligence of the foreign nations Rattling around my head Day in, day out, it's the same old drone The more I hear the more I feel alone Without a heart to call my home Yet still I wonder why And I wonder if it's all in my mind Or maybe it's been this way through all time I don't when the disconnect set in But I hope that we can connect again The clerk he asks me if he can help Yet I don't need a thing like everyone else 'Cause there's too much emptiness within my house To fill fictitious voids And I wonder if it's all in my mind Or maybe it's been this way through all time I don't when the disconnect set in But I hope that we can connect again And I wonder if it's all in my mind Or maybe it's been this way through all time I don't when the disconnect set in But I hope that we can connect again...
