(Vervolg: The good life.)

And I don't wanna be a no-man anymore
It's been a year or two since I was down on the floor
Shakin' booty making sweet love all the night
It's time I got back to the good life
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
I wanna go back, yeah

I wanna go back, I wanna go back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
I wanna go back, yeah

And I don't wanna be a no-man anymore
It's been a year or two since I was down on the floor
Shakin' booty making sweet love all the night
It's time I got back to the good life
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
I wanna go back, I wanna go back

7: El Scorcho

El scorcho, rock and roll

Goddamn you half Japanese girls
Do it to me every time
Oh, the redhead said you shred the cello
And I'm jello, baby
'Cause you want talk won't look won't think of me
I'm the epitome, a public enemy
Why you wanna go and do me like that?
Come down on the street and dance with me

I'm a lot like you so please
Hello I'm here I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you
And you'd be good for me

I asked her to go to the Green Day concert
You said you'd never heard of them how cool is that?
How cool is that?
So I went to your room and read your diary
Watching grunge leg job new jack jew press table
Then my heart stopped listening to chocho san
Fall in love all over again

I'm a lot like you so please
Hello I'm here I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you
And you'd be good for me

How stupid is it
I can't talk about it
I gotta sing about it
And make a record of my heart

How stupid is it
Won't you gimme a minute
Just come up to me
And say hello my heart
How stupid is it for all I know you want me to
Or maybe you just don't know what to do
Maybe you're scared to say
I'm falling for you

I wish I could get my head outta the sand
'Cause I think we'd make a good team
And you would keep my fingernails clean
But that's just a stupid dream that I won't realize
'Cause I can't even look in your eyes without shakin'
And I ain't fakin'
I'll bring home the turkey if you bring home the bacon
I'm a lot like you so please
Hello I'm here I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you
And you'd be good for me

I'm a lot like you so please
I'm a lot like you so please
I'm a lot like you
I think I'd be good for you
And you'd be good for me

8: Pink Triangle

When I'm stable along enough
I start to look around for love
See us reaching for a prince
My mind begins the orange mess
But when I start to feel that pull
Sometimes I like to pull myself
She would never go with me
We're not all that's good on earth

I'm dumb she's a lesbian
I thought I had found the one
We were good as married in my mind
But married in my mind's no good
Oh, pink triangle honestly
Let me know the truth
Let me know the truth

My, what am I supposed to do with my time
Would never thought it was a crime
Knew the day would surely come
When I'd chill and settle down
When I think I've found a good old fashioned girl
Then she put me in my place
Everyone's a little queer
Oh, can't she be a little straight

I'm dumb she's a lesbian
I thought I had found the one
We were good as married in my mind
But married in my mind's no good
Oh, pink triangle honestly
Let me know the truth
Let me know the truth

I'm dumb she's a lesbian
I thought I had found the one
We were good as married in my mind
But married in my mind's no good
Oh, pink triangle honestly
Let me know the truth
Let me know the truth

I'm dumb she's a lesbian
I thought I had found the one
We were good as married in my mind
But married in my mind's no good
Oh, pink triangle honestly
Let me know the truth
Let me know the truth
Let me know the truth
Let me know the truth

9: Falling For You

Holy cow I think I've got one here
Now just what am I supposed to do
I've got a number of irrational fears
That I'd like to share with you
First this loser battle goats like me
Hanging around with chicks like you
But I do like you and another one
You say like too much

But I shake your natural touch
I like you way too much
My baby I'm afraid I'm falling for you
I'd do about anything to get the hell out alive
Or maybe I would rather settle down with you

Holy moley baby wouldn't you know it
Just as I was bustin' loose
I've got a goat here in my rock star part
Get fat alone with you
'Cause I'm a burning kennel you're a gentle mutt
Teaching me to lick a little bit kinder
And I do like you you're the lucky one
No I'm the lucky one

I shake your natural touch
I like you way too much
My baby I'm afraid I'm falling for you
I'd do about anything to get the hell out alive
Or maybe I would rather settle down with you

Holy sweet god damn you left your cello in the basement
I need my hand to bow the stars and tried to play a tune
I can't believe how bad a soft kiss to you
What could you possibly see in little old preschool me
But I do like you and you like me too
I'm ready let's do it baby

I shake your natural touch
I like you way too much
My baby I'm afraid I'm falling for you
I'd do about anything to get the hell out alive
Or maybe I would rather settle down with you Down, with you

10: Butterfly

Yesterday i went outside with my momma's mason jar
Caught a lovely butterfly
When I woke up today, looked in on my fairy pet
She had withered all away, no more sighing in her breast
I'm sorry for what I did, I did what my body told me to
I didn't mean to do you harm
Everytime I pin down what U think I want it slips away
The goal slips away

Smell you on my hand for days
I can't wash away your scent
If I'm a dog then you're a bitch
I guess you're as real as me
Maybe I can't live with that
Maybe I need fantasy, life of chasing butterfly
I'm sorry for what I did, I did what my body told me to
I didn't mean to do you harm
Everytime I pin down what I think I want it slips away
The goal slips away

Told you I would return
When the robin makes his nest
But I ain't never coming back

I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I'm sorry

1: Tired Of Sex

I'm tired, so tired
I'm tired of having sex, so tired
I'm spread, so thin
I don't know who I am who I am
Monday night I'm making Jen
Tuesday night I'm making Lin
Wednesday night I'm making Catherine
So why can't I be making love come true?
Whoa, whoa

I'm beat, beat red
Ashamed of what I said what I said
I'm sorry
Do not go
I know I'm silly but I can't say no say no
Thursday night I'm making Denise
Friday night I'm making Therese
Saturday night I'm making Louise
So why can't I be making love come true?
Whatcha gonna do?

Tonight I'm down on my knees
Tonight I'm begging you please
Tonight tonight please
So why can't I be making love come true?

2: Getchoo

This is beginning to hurt
This is beginning to be serious
It used to be a game, now it's a crying shame
'Cause you don't wanna play around no more
Uh huh

Sometimes I push too hard
Sometimes you fall onto your knee
I never meant to do all that I've done to you
Please, baby, say it's not too late
Getchoo, uh huh
Getchoo, uh huh
Getchoo, uh huh
Getchoo getchoo getchoo
Uh huh, uh huh

You know this is breaking me up
You think that I'm some kind of freak, uh huh
If you come back to me then you will surely see
I'm just fooling around
Getchoo, uh huh
Getchoo, uh huh
Getchoo, uh huh
Getchoo getchoo getchoo
I can't believe I can't believe
What you've done to me
What I did to to them
You've done to me, whoa

Getchoo, uh huh
Getchoo, uh huh
Getchoo, uh huh
Getchoo getchoo getchoo
This is beginning to hurt
This is beginning to hurt
This is beginning to hurt

3: No Other One

My girl's a liar, but I'll stand beside her
She's all I've got and I don't wanna be alone
My girl don't see me when she's with my friends
She's all I've got and I don't wanna to be alone

No, there is no other one
No, there is no other one
I can't have any other one
Though I would now I never could with one

All of the drugs she does scare me real good
She's got a tattoo and two head snakes
Nobody knows me like her
Nobody knows her like me
We're all we've got and we don't wanna be alone
No, there is no other one
No, there is no other one
I can't have any other one
Though I would now I never could with one
Whoa

No, there is no other one
No, there is no other one
I won't have any other one
Though I would now I never could with one

4: Why Bother

I know I should get next to you
You've got a look that make me think you're cool
But it's just sexual attraction
It's nothing real so I'd better keep whackin

Why bother, it's gonna hurt me
It's gonna kill when you desert me
This happened to me twice before
It won't happen to me anymore
I've known a lot of girls before
What's the harm in knowing one more?
Maybe we could even get together
Maybe you could break my heart next summer

Why bother, it's gonna hurt me
It's gonna kill when you desert me
This happened to me twice before
It won't happen to me anymore

It's a crying shame I'm all alone
Not with you - nor her - nor anyone
Won't deny me of my head
Crack it open and then I would share

Why bother, it's gonna hurt me
It's gonna kill when you desert me
This happened to me twice before
It won't happen to me anymore
Why bother, it's gonna hurt me
It's gonna kill when you desert me
Why bother, it's gonna hurt me
Why bother, it's gonna hurt me

5: Across The Sea

You are eighteen year old girl
Who live in small city in japan
You heard me on the radio
About one year ago
And you wanted to know all about me
And my hobbies
My favorite food and my birthday

Why are you so far away from me?
I need help and you're way across the sea
I could never touch you
I think it would be wrong
I've got your letter, you've got my song

They don't make stationery like this where I'm from
So fragile, so defined
So I snare so I snare
And I lick and I lick
Your envelopes fall to little pieces every time
I wonder what clothes you wear to school
I wonder how you decorate your room
I wonder how you touch yourself
And curse myself for being across the sea

Why are you so far away from me?
I need help and you're way across the sea
I could never touch you
I think it would be wrong
I've got your letter, you've got my song

At ten I shaved my head and tried to be a monk
I thought the older women would like me if I did
You see mom, I'm a good little boy good little boy
It's all your fault, momma, it's all your fault
Goddam this business is really lame
I gotta live on an island to find the truth
So send me your love from all around the world
So I gotta live on words and dreams and a million screams
Oh how I need a hand of mine to feel
Why are you so far away from me?
Why are you so far away from me?
I could never touch you
I think it would be wrong
I've got your letter, you've got my song
I've got your letter, you've got my song

6: The Good Life

Yeah, check me

When I look in the mirror
I can't believe what I see
Tell me who's that funky dude
Starin' back at me
Broken beaten down, can't even get around
And that old man came, fall and hit the ground
Shivering in the cold, bitter and alone

Excuse the bitchin', I shouldn't complain
I should have no feeling
Cause feeling is pain
'Cause everything I need is denied me
And everything I want is taken away from me
But who do I got to blame, nobody but me

And I don't wanna be a no-man anymore
It's been a year or two since I was down on the floor
Shakin' booty making sweet love all the night
It's time I got back to the good life
It's time I got back, it's time i got back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
I wanna go back, yeah

Screw this crap, I've had it I've had it
I ain't no Mr. Cool
I'm a pig I'm a dog so 'scuse me if I drool
I ain't gonna hurt nobody, ain't gonna 'cause a scene
Justly to admit I want sugar in my tea
Hear me hear me I want sugar in my tea
