Bad Solution
Oh, yeah
You’ve got to move it
Or you’re gonna lose it
Time won’t always be there on your side
Well you've got to choose it
If you're gonna prove it
Change is gonna come you can’t deny
What I wanna know is what choice you’re gonna make
Cause every good debate has a bad solution
Hey Hey Hey
you’ve got to move it – move it
Who took the first shot
But who started the riot
I thought we were marching peacefully
We got the music
But we’ve got to use it
Oh
Shouldn’t we be dancing in the streets
I wanna know what choice you’re gonna make
Every good debate has a bad solution
What you choose to see
Might define your fate
Every good debate has a bad solution
Oh a bad solution
Hey Hey Hey
Said Wooh-oo
A bad solution
you’ve got to move it – move it
it’s a bad solution
it’s a bad solution (repeat)
you’ve got to move it – move it
it’s a bad solution
it’s a bad solution (repeat)
What i want to know is what choice you're gonna make
Every good debate has a bad solution
Hey Hey Hey
Beautiful Girl (It’s Alive)
You liked diamonds
They remind you of love
You do dirty things no one else is thinking of
Sister libertine
Do hike up your skirt
Pretend that this rejection doesn’t really hurt
You bare you rise and you show more skin
And you don’t believe that I won’t let you in
It’s a beautiful world
It’s a wonderful life
She’s a beautiful girl, it’s alive
I watched you eat your heart out
So it wouldn’t break
Now you’re too full you can’t enjoy your piece of cake
You left your kings
Made a mess of things
Now you feel your plate like you throw your weight around
It’s a beautiful world
It’s a wonderful life
She’s a beautiful girl, it’s alive
It’s a beautiful world
It’s a wonderful life
She’s a beautiful girl, it’s alive
Here she comes
Miss America
It’s a beautiful world
It’s a wonderful life
She’s a beautiful girl, it’s alive
It’s a beautiful world
It’s a wonderful life
She’s a beautiful girl, it’s alive
It’s alive, It’s alive
It’s alive, It’s alive
Devils Nachos
I met the Devil at the Taco Bell
I said how ya doing, how’s it burning in hell
He said hot d**n, give me a chance
I show you boy, why the demons dance
Stop short and give me a pulse
I see the fire that is burning your eyes
He said listen son, I’ll sell it to you cheap
Sell you a bowl for the price of your soul
Devils Nachos
Too hot
Devils Nachos
Way too hot
Devils Nachos
They’re not your Nachos
He put the bowl on the table
Said take a bite if you think you’re able
To bear the burning heat of the burning sun
In your stomach tell the kingdom come
Right then
I stood straight
And took a chip
In my hand
And put the thing
On my tongue
And felt the tingle of my taste buds
Devils Nachos
Too hot
Devils Nachos
Way too hot
Devils Nachos
They’re not your Nachos
Devils Nachos
Too hot
Devils Nachos
Way too hot
Devils Nachos
They’re not your Nachos
I lean close
So we could hear
Every word
They were clear
It’s not hot
It’s not warm
It don’t sting
It don’t burn
I won’t sign on the dotted line
Cause the contract says I’ll burn ‘till the end of time
Hell must be frozen through
Cause I’m not the devil that I thought I knew
Devils Nachos
Too hot
Devils Nachos
Way too hot
Devils Nachos
They’re not your Nachos
Hey Hey Hey
Devils Nachos
Too hot
Devils Nachos
Way too hot
Devils Nachos
They’re not your Nachos
Even When You're Gone
Man: "Hello?"
Girl: "Hey boo it’s me, I know it's been a while and all, but I was thinking I could come over and you and me, you know, maybe we could get back with?"
Man: "Who is this?"
Even when you're gone, I still carry on
All you did was take up my time
baby when you're leavin', You won't see me grievin'
I don't even care, be on your way
You were on the road, acting like a rolling stone
wasn't sitting home alone with your silk scarf
I'm not still attached, 'cause your love is in my past
Like the scratches on my back that you left behind
Even when you're leavin', you won't see me grievin'
All you did was take up my time
Baby when you're gone, I still carry on
I don't even care, be on your way
Even when you're gone, I still carry on
All you did was take up my time
baby when you're leavin', You won't see me grievin'
I don't even care, be on your way
Your love was sweet but even when you're gone
I won't skip a beat, 'cause I take what I want
You tried to play be, but my game will carry on and on
We both used eachother
Underneath the covers
But only one of us was using you
Even when you're gone, I still carry on
All you did was take up my time
baby when you're leavin', You won't see me grievin'
I don't even care, be on your way
Even when you're gone, I still carry on
All you did was take up my time
baby when you're leavin', You won't see me grievin'
I don't even care, be on your way
Girl: "Girl, I should call him. He was tripping, acting like he didn't even know who I was."
"Yeah, I told him that. I don't know what he's thinking, girl, he's got to remember me."
Your love was sweet
Girl: "Ok, I gotta go, I'm gonna call Sean"
We both used eachother
Baby be on your way
Take your silk scarf and drive
It Just Ain’t Cool
Thunderbird, take flight
I pulled up alongside
You’re in park at a green light
You gotta stick it in drive
And it just ain’t cool to wait forever
You’re burning fuel
Move on tonight
A closer look inside
I know your face by the dense skies
Your cigarette, well it just won’t like
You gotta kick it and ride
And it just ain’t cool to wait forever
You’re burning fuel
Move on tonight
And it just ain’t cool it’s now or never
It’s just so cruel to waste the night
It just ain’t cool to wait forever
You’re burning fuel
Move on tonight
It just ain’t cool to wait forever
You’re burning fuel
Move on tonight
It just ain’t cool, It’s now or never
It’s just so cruel to waste the night
It just ain’t cool - It just ain’t cool
It just ain’t cool - It just ain’t cool
It just ain’t cool - It just ain’t cool
It just ain’t cool - It just ain’t cool
It just ain’t cool - It just ain’t cool
It just ain’t cool - It just ain’t cool
It just ain’t cool
You got to stick it in drive
My Favorite Shoes (incomplete)
Turn around and face the screen
The credits for projector gleams
There you are as a kid
Aping what you’re brother did
One summer holiday
Squinting in the ocean spray
There you are with a young man
Just like when the film began
I keep walking in my favorite shoes
What is it that makes a man
His fathers’ name, his mothers’ hands
I push for life, I cry for breather, but even now there’s so much left
I know myself better than I did back then
Ask me how, I ask you when
I can’t forget the words you said
But close your eyes, just look ahead
But I keep walking in my favorite shoes
My shoes are dirty, but my soul is clean
I found it out when I was seventeen
I can’t forget what my mama said
It’s all in your heart, it’s not in your head
Least here’s how
Silent Ride (incomplete)
Wish I could take it back
We are boys who look like men who act like boys from time to time
And the blood that made us warriors is now an enemy of mine
And all I can think about is how the hell am I gonna tell you
For now I’m silent
There’s a patch of lonely sunlight in a mostly cloudy sky
I thought those acks would go unnoticed, you would turn a blind eye
They’d be grace for my transgretions
God I failed, but at least I tried
The Hardest Thing
I look out, the window
Reflecting your shadow
Only, only
I’ll tell you my secret
As long as you keep it
Always, always
Don’t leave me
I need you
Unless you easier?
This is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do
This is the longest night I’ve ever made it through
Thinking about you, living without you
This is the hardest thing
Believe me, I want to
Spend my life, beside you
Only, only
Without you, there’s nowhere
Where you go, I’ll be there
Always, always
Don’t leave me
It’s not easy
I’ll let you down, oh yeah
This is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do
This is the longest night I’ve ever made it through
Thinking about you, living without you
This is the hardest thing, this is the hardest thing
All I would do, inside you
I want you
This is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do
This is the longest night I’ve ever made it through
This is about you, living without you
This is the hardest thing, the hardest thing
This is the hardest thing, oh yeah, this is the longest night
Oh, I’m thinking about you, living without you
This is the hardest thing, the hardest thing
The Space Between
Morning lingers till the coffee cools my fingers
I’m still hoping for some answers
Floating with I know I’m waiting
As the glowing day floats quite through the blinds
Will we make it through this time
In the space between this moment and the first concession
I will always be here standing in the doorway
Please don’t say you don’t want to try
I’ll be waiting in the space between
Waking I can hear the freeway
Like an instant replay I’ve been trying to forget
I meant to tell you that I’m sorry
Now my hesitation fills me with regret
Will we make it through this time
In the space between
This moment and the first concession
I will always be here standing in the doorway
Please don’t say you don’t want to try
I’ll be waiting in the space between
In the space between
This moment and the first confession
I will always be here standing in your doorway
Please don’t say you don’t want to try
I’ll be waiting - I’ll be waiting
Please don’t say you don’t want to try
I’ll be waiting in the space between
Meant to tell you how I’m sorry
Now my reservation fills me with regret
One More Day with you
Have you heard?
Have you tried to understand?
It's all right.
It gets easier with time.
How are you?
Are you ever coming back?
I have changed.
And I realized I was wrong
I was wrong.
Now I'll never see your face
Anymore.
Oh my love, I'd give anything
For one more day with you.
Getting through
I wish you felt the way I do
I have changed
And I realized I was wrong.
I was wrong.
Now I'll never see your face
Anymore.
Oh my love, I'd give anything
For one more day with you.
Goodbye George
Goodbye george, all things must pass
Here comes the sun to take the youngest one at last
when the dark horse, turned the lights out
i remember when the wonderwall came down
sunset comes for every one
we’re blue for you
within or without you
we’re lost
goodbye george
Liverpool to Bangledesh
Your guitar is gently weeping in our heads
a record spun, round and round
and you taught me how to hear another sound
there’s something in the way you made me feel
some little mystery revealed to help us heal…
sunset comes for everyone…for everyone…
we’re blue for you
within and without you
we’re lost, goodbye…
goodbye george, all things must pass
here comes the sun to take the youngest one at last
You’re Enough
You're enough for the rest of my life
Darling, please don't go
Blink of an eye, did I make it in time
Hold me and tell me I'm home
l give you my word
The word of a fool in love
You're enough for the rest of my life
Darling, I surrender
Wide awake I sit in my bedroom alone
Think of all the things I need
Of all the thoughts, you seem to cross my mind the most
One thing I could never replace
Somedays, the love fades
We hold on, I know it’s real
Cause you’re enough for the rest of my life
Darling, please don't go
Blink of an eye, did I make it in time
Hold me and tell me I'm home
I give you my word
The word of a fool in love
You're enough for the rest of my life
Darling, I surrender
For everyday another path that I could take
But I don’t want just any love
I couldn’t see that life without you is a mistake
But now I know that I was wrong
Somedays, the love fades
We hold on, I know it’s real
You're enough for the rest of my life
Darling, please don't go
Blink of an eye, did I make it in time
Hold me and tell me I'm home
I give you my word
The word of a fool in love
You're enough for the rest of my life
Darling, I surrender
Honestly I’ve been waiting for you
Now I see that there’s nothing to prove
All alone I’ve been waiting for you
My love to say you’re mine
You're enough for the rest of my life
Darling, please don't go
Blink of an eye, did I make it in time
Hold me and tell me I'm home
I give you my word
The word of a fool in love
You're enough for the rest of my life
Darling, I surrender
You're enough for the rest of my life
Darling, please don't go
Blink of an eye, did I make it in time
Hold me and tell me I'm home
I give you my word
The word of a fool in love
You're enough for the rest of my life
Darling, I surrender
Take My Time
Ohh, Take my time,
I’ve never had a true obsession, that’s what you turned out to be
Oh spent, I was reelin, the days you’re stealing,
Well they might be the death of me
So take me alive, hold my breath, my heart beat inside
If you let me, I give you all that’s worth taking
Take my time
Oh, you take my time
Take my time
I’ve never needed converstation to fill an empty afternoon,
Oh your touch it breaks me, your love it makes me
Every moment with you ends too soon
So take me alive, hold my breath, my heart beat inside
If you let me, I give you all that’s worth taking
Take my time
Oh won’t you take my time
Oh, oh, oh, Won’t you take my time
Yeah,
Oh, So take me alive, take my breath, my heart beat inside
If you let me, I give you all, that’s worth taking
Take my time
Take me alive, hold my breath, my heart beat inside
If you let me, I give you all, that’s worth taking
Oh, just take my time
I Can't Wait
I can’t wait, well I can’t wait
Said, I can’t wait
I won’t miss you when you’re gone
When you’re gone
I’ve done my time, I’ve served it well
I did’t want to speak my mind
I held my tongue till the last you felt
Gonna put it on the line
I’m not the only
Say it, I can’t wait
To be the one to knock you back of you’re feet again
So pack your bags and be on your way
I won’t miss you when you’re gone
I won’t miss you
You made the rules in a dirty game
And you break them way too easily
You’re always cool
It’s when you aim you’re insults and you’re quiver at me
Oh, I’m not the only one
Come on now, say it
I can’t wait to be the one to knock you back you’re feet again
So pack your bags and be on your way
I won’t miss you when you’re gone
Oh, I won’t miss you when you’re gone
I’m saying I can’t wait
To be the one to knock you back you’re feet again
So pack your bags and be on your way
I won’t miss you when you’re gone
Yeah, I can’t wait
To be the one to knock you back you’re feet again
To be the one to knock you down into the street again
So pack your bags and be on your way
I won’t miss you when you’re gone
Well, I won’t miss you when you’re gone
I won’t miss you when you’re gone
I can’t wait, I can’t wait, I can’t wait, I can’t wait
Oh, I won’t miss you when you’re gone
Book Down in the Basement
Wondering why, wondering why
I could tell by your breathing
Your sleep wasn’t sound
And you’ve gone off the deep end
And you keep going down
You keep going down, you keep going down
I thought I had broke down in the basement
Was wandering by, was wandering by
And no that you won’t look me in the face
I’m wondering why, wondering why
Wondering why, wondering why
When did you start believing
I wasn’t around
You still have trouble keeping
Your feet on the ground
Your feet on the ground, your feet on the ground
Your feet on the ground, your feet on the ground
I thought that I had broke down in the basement
I was wandering by, I was wandering by
Now that you won’t look me in the face
I’m wondering why, wondering why
I thought that I had broke down in the basement
I was wandering by, I was wandering by
Now that you won’t look me in the face
I’m wondering why, wondering why
Was wandering by, was wondering why, was wondering why
Was wondering why, why- why- why
I was wondering why, I was wondering why
I was wondering why - why- why
I was wondering why, wondering why
Was wondering why, why-why-why
During why, wondering why
