The Lyrics:

(1-1) SPIDERBAIT - Buy Me a Pony 

Don't you wanna be 
A personality 
An ocean in the sea 
But you'll never make it 
If you can't shake it 
So don't mistake it 
Just try and fake it 
And I want you to know 
You don't have far to go 
So we'll use all your dough 
To buy new clothes 
And see what flows 
And powder your nose 
For those photos 
You're almost on your way 
To popularity 
And we'll teach you to play 
With icy stare 
And punk rock hair 
And beatnik flair 
We'll take you there 
`cause there's nobody else like you 
And we sure care just what you're doing 
After we have gone our seperate ways 
So don't you want to be 
A big time entity 
Your place in history 
But don't be scared 
Of what we said 
`cause there's no end 
To being your friend 
But wait out in the hall 
We've just received a call 
We'll have to dump you all 
But don't you try 
To pass us by 
`cause we own you 
Until we're through 
And there's so many round like you 
And we don't care just what you're doing 
After we have gone our seperate ways 


(1-2) TOOL - Stinkfist

Something has to change
Un-deniable dilemma
Boredom's not a burden
Anyone should bear

Constant over stimulation numbs me
but I wouldn't want you
any other way

It's not enough
I need more
Nothing seems to satisfy
I don't want it
I just need it
To feel, to breathe, to know I'm alive

Finger deep within the borderline
Show me that you love me and that we belong together
Relax, turn around and take my hand

I can help you change
Tired moments into pleasure
Say the word and we'll be
Well upon our way

Blend and balance
Pain and comfort
Deep within you
Till you will not want me any other way

It's not enough
I need more
Nothing seems to satisfy
I don't want it
I just need it
To feel, to breathe, to know I'm alive

Knuckle deep inside the borderline
This may hurt a little but it's something you'll get used to
Relax. Slip away

Something kinda sad about
the way that things have come to be
Desensitized to everything
What became of subtlety?

How can this mean anything to me
If I really don't feel anything at all?

I'll keep digging till
I feel something. 
Elbow deep inside the borderline
Show me that you love me and that we belong together
Shoulder deep within the borderline
Relax. Turn around and take my hand


(1-3) BEN FOLDS FIVE : "Underground"

I was never cool in school
I'm sure you don't remember me
And now it's been 10 years
I'm still wondering who to be
But I'd love to mix
In circles, cliques, and social coteries - that's me
Hand me my nose ring (Can we be happy?)
Show me the mosh pit (Can we be happy?)
We can be happy underground

Who's got the looks, who's got the brains
Who's got everything
I got this pain in my heart, that's all
Hey you with the long and lonely face
There's got to be something else
Let me tell ya something else
There was this girl who passed me by
She gave a smile but I was shy
I looked down, so down
Don't look there no no, go go underground
But now there's a place to go
It's the morning, it's the evening
It's everything 
I click my heels and I'm there

Underground, underground
Everything's happy underground
You been kicked around
Did life bring you down here
Everything's heavy underground

We'll be decked in all black and
Slamming the pit fantastic
Officer Friendly's little boy's got a mohawk
He knows just where we're coming from
It's industrial, work it underground
Get down, get down, get down

Underground, underground
Everything's happy underground
You been kicked around
Did life bring you down here
Everything's heavy underground


(1-4) BUTTHOLE SURFERS - Pepper

Marky got with Sharon
Sharon got Cher-ie
She was Sharon, Sharon's aleck
on the topic of disease

Mikey had a facial scar
and bobby was a racist
they were all in love with Dianne
They were doing it in Texas

Tommy played piano
like a kid out in the rain
and then he lost his leg in Dallas
He was dancing with the train

they were all in love with Dianne
they were drinking from a fountain
that was pouring like an avalanche
coming down the mountain

i don't mind the sun sometimes
the images it shows
I can taste you on my lips
and smell you in my clothes
cinnamon and sugary 
and softly spoken lies 
you never know just how you look 
through other people's eyes

Some will die in hot pursuit in firey auto crashes
some will die in hot pursuit while sifting through my ashes
some will fall in love with life
and drink it from a fountain
that is pouring like an avalanche
coming down the mountain

repeat chorus

another mikey took a knife while arguing in traffic
Flipper died a natural death
he caught a nasty virus
then there was the everpresent football player rapist
they were all in love with dianne
they were doing it in texas
Polly caught a bullet
but it only hit his leg while
it should've been a better shot 
and got him in the head
they were all in love with dianne
they were drinking from a fountain
that was pouring like an avalanche
coming down the mountain

I don't mind the sun sometimes....


(1-5) BUSH - GLYCERINE

must be your skin that I'm sinking in
must be real cos now I can feel
and I didn't mind
it's not my kind
not my time to wonder why
everything's gone white
and everything's grey
now you're here now you're away
i don't want this
remember that
i'll never forget where you're at
don't let the days go by
glycerine

I'm never alone
I'm alone all the time
are you at one
or do you lie
we live on a wheel
where everyone steals
but when we rise it's like strawberry fields

if I treated you bad
you bruise my face
couldn't love you more
you got a beautiful taste
don't let the days go by
could of been easier on you
i couln't change though I wanted to
should've been easier by three 
our old fear and you and me
glycerine(repeat)
don't let the days go by
glycerine

i needed you more
when we wanted less
i could not kiss just regress
it might just be
clear simple and plain
that's just fine
that's just one of my names
don't let the days go by
could've been easier on you
glycerine


(1-6) PRODIGY - Breathe

Breathe the pressure,
Come play my game I'll test ya
Psychosomatic addict, insane
Breathe the pressure,
Come play my game I'll test ya
Psycho,-somatic addict, insane

Come play my game

Come play my game
Exhale, exhale, exhale

Breathe the pressure,

Psychosomatic addict, insane

(1-8) WEEZER - El Scorcho

El Scorcho, Aye Carumba!

Goddamn you half-Japanese girls
Do it to me every time
Oh, the redhead said you shared the cello
And I'm jello, baby
But you want talk won't look won't think of me
I'm the epitome
Of 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 you'd be good for me

I asked you to go to the Green Day concert
You said you 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 drop New Jack through a presstable"
And then my heart stopped:
"Listening to Cio-Cio San
fall in love all over again."

Chorus

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 (to my heart)
How stupid is it
For all I know you want me too
Or maybe you just don't know what to do
And 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

Chorus


(1-9) BABYBIRD You're Gorgeous

Y-O-U-R-E-G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S

remember that tank top you bought me
you wrote you're gorgeous on it
you took me to your rented motor car
and feeled me on the bonnett

you got me to hitch my knees up
and pulled my legs apart
you took an instamatic camera
and pulled my sleeves around my ehart

CHORUS
because you're gorgeous
i'd do anything for you
becos you're gorgeous
i know you'll get me through

you said my clothes were sexy
you tore away my shirt
you rubbed an ice cube on my chest
and snapped me `till it hurt

(chorus)

You said I wasn't cheap
you paid me 20 pounds
you promised to put mw in a magazine
on every table in every lounge

(chorus and then..)

because you're gorgeous
I'd do anything for you
because you're gorgeous
I know you'll get me/ know you'll get me through
know you get me through/ know you'll get me through
know you'll get me/know you'll get me through
I know you'll get me/know you'll get me
know you'll get me through


(1-10) 311 - "DOWN" 

chill light on my sight as my ego becomes
a funky child with some words on my tongue
be like intake of breath and my mouth gets loose
while I scatter my spit I dream of juice
have you ever made out in dark hallways
displayed a kiss that made your day or say
played a track from your record collection
it's your mix congratulations

we've changed a lot and then some-some
you know that we have always been down-down
and if I ever didn't thank you-you
then just let me do it now

I bet you light up when we start the show
follow me now very closely 'cuz I told you so
you know we glow because we throw sun-rays
we be freaky and we wanna stay

we've changed a lot and then some-some
you know that we have always been down-down
and if I ever didn't thank you-you
then just let me do it now

lightning strikes yo we be in that violent force of light
guaranteed to turn it out as bad as dolemite
'cuz we're dope kid change like a chameleon and the
channel whenever that wack show real world is on

fall in love with the teacher on the wax
we are self made check the technique, 311 in L.A

we've changed a lot and then some-some
you know that we have always been down-down
and if I ever didn't thank you-you
then just let me do it now

(1-12) FUN LOVING CRIMINALS - Scooby Snacks

Me and Fast got the gats; we're out to rob a bank
We got Steve outside and he's carrying
a full pack
Now everything's cool and everthing's smooth
I walked up to the teller, I gave her the letter
She gave me the loot with puckered up lips
and a wink that I found cute, and I said,
"baby, baby, baby"

(Is this some Kharmic-Chi love thing happening here baby or what.)

By that time Fast tapped me from behind
he said it was time to blow, ya know. So out the door we go
Back to the ride with Steve inside and alive; off we drive
I hurt my lower lumbar, you know we'll
never get far, riding around in a stolen
police car, so we dropped it off and
piled in a Caddy; Steve was driving
because I had to talk to my man about something

Running around robbing banks
all wacked off of Scooby Snacks!

I don't give a fuck about the hell's

gate, ain't punkin' the crowd and I'm still
standing up staight
So, we pull these jobs to make a little money;
no one gets hurt if they don't act funny
On the way to the yacht, we almost got caught,
fast is shooting mailboxes, not knowing
where the cop is
They're at the Dunkin Donuts, adjacent from
the Froman's whose mailbox had just
exploded. 

They gave chase, but our man
Steve is an ace; we lost those brothers
with haste. We cast off and along we went
off Bermuda to an island resort we rented

Running around robbing banks
all wacked off of Scooby Snacks!


(1-13) BABYLON ZOO - Spaceman

Pungent smells they consummate my home
Beyond the black horizon
Trying to take control
See my girl she shivers in her bones
The sun and zenith rising
Trying to take us all

There's a fire between us
So where is your God
There's a fire between us
I can't get off the carousel
I can't get off the carousel
I can't get off the carousel
I can't get off this world

This sickening taste
Homophobic jokes
Images of facist votes
Beam me up `cause I can't breathe

Space man, I always wanted you to go
Into space man (intergalactic Christ)

It's time to terminate the great wide world
Morbid fascinations television takes control
Decimation different races fall
Electronic information tampers with your soul

There's a fire between us
So where is your God
There's a fire between us
I can't get off the carousel
I can't get off the carousel
I can't get off the carousel
I can't fall off this world 
This sickening taste
Homophobic jokes
Images of facist votes
Beam me up `cause I can't breathe
Space man, I always wanted you to go
Into space man (intergalactic Christ)

Space man, I always wanted you to go ) 
Into space man (intergalactic Christ) 


(1-14) POWDERFINGER - DAF

Holding out for a signal to come
Solution found should appease everyone
Religion hides from developing proof
Believers try to encourage the truth
Cascading down golden rays above
Cascading down life from far beyond
May reveal the silence they deny
Sound and sight end suspicion and fear
Distant light took so long to appear
Fey black eyes mystified everyone
Cascading down golden rays above
Cascading down life from far beyond
May reveal the silence they deny
but they keep filling up, keep filling up my eyes
But they keep filling up, keep filling up my eyes 



(1-15) REGURGITATOR - Sucked A Lot of Cock To Get Where I Am

I sucked a lot of cock to get where I am
I only want to be the best that I can
My mind is stained, I can't complain
Just keep on rinsing it again and again

Woah-oh, woah-woah yeah, woah-woah yeah
Woah-oh, woah-woah yeah, woah yeah-eah-eah

Take a look at me, tell me what do you see?
I've got all I want
I'm on top of the heap, now they suck up to me
I've sucked more cock
You can get what you need, just get down on your knees

You've sucked a lot of cock to get where you are
Your smile is streching but you're gonna go far
Your life is pain, you can't complain
Just keep on rinsing it again and again

I know, I know-woah-oh-oh-oh
I sucked a lot of cock to get where I am
I know, I know-woah-oh-oh-oh
I only want to be the best that I can
I know, I know-woah-oh-oh-oh
I sucked a lot of cock to get where I am
I know, I know-woah-oh-oh-oh
I only want to be the best that I can
I know, I know-woah-oh-oh-oh
I know, I know-woah-oh-oh-oh..


(1-16) EVERCLEAR : Santa Monica

I am still living with your ghost
Lonely and dreaming of the west coast
I don't want to be your downtime
I don't want to be your stupid game

With my big black boots and an old suitcase
I do believe I'll find myself a new place
I don't want to be the bad guy
I don't want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore
I just want to see some palm trees
Go and try to shake away this disease

We can live beside the ocean
Leave the fire behind
Swim out past the breakers
Watch the world die(x2)

I am still dreaming of your face
Hungry and hollow for all the things you took away
I don't want to be your good time
I don't want to be your fall-back crutch anymore

(I'll) walk right out into a brand new day
Insane and rising in my own weird way
I don't want to be the bad guy

I don't want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore
I just want to feel some sunshine
I just want to find some place to be alone

We can live beside the ocean
Leave the fire behind
Swim out past the breakers
And watch the world die
And watch the world die


(1-17) NO DOUBT - Just a Girl

Take this pink ribhbon off my eyes
I'm exposed, and it's no big surprise
Don't you think I know exactly where I stand
This world is forcing me
To hold your hand

`cause I'm just a girl, little ol' me
Well don't let me out of your sight
I'm just a girl - all pretty and petite
So don't let me have any rights
Oh...I've had it up to here!

The moment that I step outside
So many reasons
For me to run and hide
I can't do the little things
I hold so dear
`cause it's all those little things
That I fear

`cause I'm just a girl
I'd rather not be
`cause they won't let me drive
Late at night
I'm just a girl,
Guess I'm some kind of freak
`cause they all sit and stare
With their eyes
I'm just a girl
Take a good look at me
Just your typical prototype
Oh...I've had it up to here!

Oh...am I making myself clear?

I'm just a girl
I'm just a girl in the world..
That's all that you'll let me be!

I'm just a girl, living in captivity
Your rule of thumb
Make me worry some
I'm just a girl, what's my destiny?
What I've succumbed to
Is making me numb
I'm just a girl. my apologies
What I've become is so burdensome
I'm just a girl. lucky me
Twiddle-dum there's no comparison

Oh...I've had it up to!
Oh...I've had it up to!!
Oh...I've had it up to here.


(2-1) CAKE: "THE DISTANCE"

Reluctantly crouched at the starting line,
Engines pumping and thumping in time
The green light flashes, the flags go up
Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup
They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank,
Fuel burning fast on an empty tank
Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns
Their prowess is potent and secretly stearn
As they speed through the finish, the flags go down
The fans get up and they get out of town
The arena is empty except for one man,
Still driving and striving as fast as he can
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
And long ago somebody left with the cup
But he's driving and striving and hugging the turns
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns

He's going the distance
He's going for speed
She's all alone
In her time of need
Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse,
He's going the distance

No trophy, no flowers, no flashbulbs, no wine,
He's haunted by something he cannot define
Bowel-shaking earthquakes of doubt and remorse,
Assail him, impale him with monster-truck force
In his mind, he's still driving,still making the grade
She's hoping in time that her memories will fade
Cause he's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
And long ago somebody left with the cup
But he's striving and driving and hugging the turns
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns

Cause he's going the distance
He's going for speed
She's all alone
In her time of need
Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
He's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
He's going the distance
He's going for speed
He's going the distance.


(2-2) BECK: Devil's Haircut

Something's wrong `cause my mind is fading
And everywhere I look there's a dead end waiting
Temperature's dropping at the rotten oasis
Stealing kisses from the leperous faces

Heads are hanging from the garbage man trees
Mouthwash jukebox gasoline
Pistols are pointing at a poor man's pockets
Smiling eyes ripping out of his sockets

Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind

Love machines on the sympathy crutches
Discount orgies on the dropout buses
Hitching a ride with the bleeding noses
Coming to town with the brief case blues

Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind

Something's wrong `cause my mind is fading
Ghetto-blastin' disintegrating
Rock 'n' roll, know what I'm sayin'
And everywhere I look there's a devil waiting

Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind

Devil's haircut! In my mind!
Devil's haircut! In my mind!
Devil's haircut! In my mind!



(2-3) SKIN- Mah Na Mah Na

If you can't figure out these lyrics, there's seriously something wrong ;)



(2-4) JAMIROQUAI- Virtual Insanity

Oh yeah, what we're living in (let me tell ya)

It's a wonder man can eat at all
When things are big that should be small
Who can tell what magic spells we'll be doing for us
And I'm giving all my love to this world
Only to be told
I can't see
I can't breathe
No more will we be

And nothing's going to change the way we live
Cos' we can always take but never give
And now that things are changing for the worse
See, it's a crazy world we're living in
And I just can't see that half of us immersed in sin
Is all we have to give these -

[Chorus]
Futures made of virtual insanity
now Always seem to, be
govern'd by this love we have
For useless, twisting, (of) our new
technology Oh, now there is no
sound - for we all live underground

And I'm thinking what a mess we're in
Hard to know where to begin
If I could slip the sickly ties that earthly man has made
And now every mother, can choose the colour
Of her child
That's not natures way
Well that's what they said yesterday
There's nothing left to do but pray
I think it's time I found a new religion
Waoh - it's so insane
To synthesize another strain
There's something in these
Future's that we have to be told

[Chorus]

Now there is no sound
If we all live underground
And now it's virtual insanity
Forget your virtual reality
Oh, there's nothing so bad,
I know yeah

Instrumental break

Of this virtual insanity, we're livin' in,
Has got to change, yeah
Things, will never be the same,
And I can't go on
While we're livin' in oh,
oh virtual insanity
Oh, this world, has got to change
Cos I just, I just can't keep
going on, it was virtual,
Virtual insanity that we're livin' in,
that we're livin' in
That virtual insanity is what it is

[Chorus]

Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity

Virtual insanity is what we're living in

to fill the hole
before I sputter out

(2-7) GEGGY TAH - Whoever You Are

All I wanna do is to thank you
even though I don't know who you are
You let me change lanes
while I was driving in my car..
repeat....
Whoever you are
I wanna thank you who..
repeat

Now all I wanna do is to exit
So I go to where I can get off
On a curve, through the shoulder
There's no parking in that trough
So I drive around all day
Coming atmospheric haze
Till I wanna get on again
Then, all I have to say is

All I wanna do is to thank you
Even though I don't know who you are
You let me change lanes
While I was driving in my car
x2
Whoever you are
I wanna thank you who..
x4
All I wanna do is to tune in
Radio L.A. Lujah
`cause we're broadcasting live
And we wanna hear all of ya
On the mic is Geggy Tah
But a whole lot more of all of ya
Let us hear ya, let us hear ya
In a big echoing holla

All I wanna do is to thank you

Even though I don't know who you are

You let me change lanes

While I was driving in my car

Whoever you are
I wanna thank you who...repeat


(2-8) FINISCAD - Coppertone 

Shout the name of the king of your padded cell
leave a note on the floor when you need it
tell your friends - the key's on the second shelf

All the time that we throw at the feet of you
Share it round with the fine kind of users

standing around like a five tonne loser
and I'm wanderin' ten times a day, yeah
coppertone. coppertone.
is it one sleep to bear?

(2-9) BJORK - HYPERBALLAD

We live on a mountain
right at the top
there's a beautiful view
from the top of the mountain
every morning I walk
towards the edge
and throw little
things off
like car-parts, bottles
and cutlery,
or whatever I find
lying around
it's become a habit
to start the day

I go through all this
before you wake up
so I can feel happier
to be safe up here
with you

it's real early morning
no-one is awake

I'm back at my cliff
still throwing things off
I listen to the sounds
they make
on their way down
I follow with my eyes
'til they crash
imagine what my body
would sound like
slamming against
those rocks
when it lands
will my eyes
be closed or open?

I go through all this
before you wake up
so I can feel happier
to be safe up here
with you


(2-10) LEMONHEADS - If I Could Talk I'd Tell You

Half past 9, quarter to ten
10:15, and we're coming around again
hold off, are we going soft?
Flushed my Zoloft, and we're comin' around again
Found out, and I almost drowned
Walked back down, and we're coming around again

If I could talk I'd tell you
If I could smile I'd let you know
You are far and away
My most imaginary friend

If I could talk I'd tell you
When I could smile I'd let you know
You are far and away

Khmer Rhouge, and genocide qua
Your place or mein kempf, now I'm givin' the dog a bone
slight hunch, without the vaguest clue
to keep the blood balanced, now we're coming around again
half past 9, quarter two,
10:15, and we're comin' around again

If I could talk I'd tell you
If I could smile I'd let you know
You are far and away
My most imaginary friend

If I could talk I'd tell you
When I could smile I'd let you know
You are far and away

(whistle solo)

If I could talk I'd tell you
If I could smile I'd let you know
You are far and away
My most imaginary friend

If I could talk I'd tell you
When I could smile I'd let you know
You are far and away


(2-11) REBECCA'S EMPIRE - So Rude

Well you shouldn't talk to her like that

so how come she still has to hide her body from you

i wouldn't talk to her like that if I were you
you're so rude

yeah you're so rude

you're rude, you're rude


(2-12) DEF FX - I'LL BE YOUR MAJICK

Become the moment
in your Dreaming
a fresh flesh fetish for what you're feeling
feel the rhythm of our breathing
our tongues are circling as feet are grinding

Majick! I'll be your majick
Motion is the rocket fuel for fantasy and ecstacy,
look no further for what you're needing..
I'll be your majick

Telepathic body spirit
Pure dirty pleasure
that is the secret
communicating with our bodies
wild mushroom woman find your snake and let it bite you

Majick! I'll be your majick
Motion is the rocket fuel for fantasy and ecstacy,
look no further for what you're needing..
I'll be your majick
