Stupid
Little Love Song
It's just a stupid little love song
It's just a stupid little
It's just a stupid little love song
Here we go
Put em' up
Put em' up, put em' up
Your grandpa fought in world war two
Your cousin landed on the moon
Your mother is a diplomat, the senator of Connecticut
Your sister's got four point oh
Your father's got his own talk show
Your brother is the scientist, who found the cure for morning breath
I came here by taxi
You came by limousine
And all I have to offer you is this
Just a stupid little love song
(Three chords and a microphone)
Just a stupid little love song
(Hip hop and rock n' roll)
So sit right down I'll sing this song to you
Put em' up
Put em' up, put em' up
The captain of the football team
A cheerleader's recurring dream
You're on the road to Harvard Law
I'm on the bus to Arkansas
I stand in your doorway
Your world looks so enchanting
And all I have to offer you is this
Just a stupid little love song
(Three chords and a microphone)
Just a stupid little love song
(Hip hop and rock n' roll)
So sit right down I'll sing this song to you
Put em' up
Put em' up, put em' up
And the moon comes in the window like a spotlight
(This is love cause this is real)
Sit you down and I being to gently rock your night
(Cause I'm trying to tell you what I feel)
And we're truly approaching a moment
And then you lean over, and say,
What's my name?, what's my name?, what's my name?
Oh, go on
Here we go
(Hi is Brett home?)
(Well will you tell him I came by?)
I stand in your driveway
Your world looks so far away
And all I have to offer you is this
Just a stupid little love song
(Three chords and a microphone)
Just a stupid little love song
(Hip hop and rock and roll)
So sit right down I'll sing this song to you
Put em' up, put em' up
Just a stupid little love song
So sit right down I'll sing this song to you

Daddy daddy
Why you break your promises to me
Daddy daddy
Don't you know you hurt me constantly
And there's something I think that you should know
I'm not the little girl you left waiting at home
All the hurt and pain you left with mom and me
Why can't I be angry
I hope you're somewhere there listening to this song
I hope you're thinking what you did was wrong
Well let me make it crystal clear for you to see
It's too late for I'm sorry
Sorry is a word you like to say
But sorry won't erase the things you did yesterday
And I want you to know that I didn't need you anyway
And this rope that we walk on is swaying
And the ties that bind us
They will never ever fray
But I want for you to know
You are
You are
Unforgiven
Unforgiven
Daddy daddy
Fan of absolute simplicity
Daddy daddy
Expert in responsibility
Where were you when I fell down and skinned my knee
Where were you when I was scared to go to sleep
Where were you to soothe my insecurities
Why can't I be angry
Where were you the first time someone broke my heart
Where were you when I first learned to drive a car
Where were you when I plugged in my first guitar
It's too late for I'm sorry
And I want you to know that I didn't need you anyway
And this rope that we walk on is swaying
And the ties that bind us
They will never ever fray
But I want for you to know
You are
You are
Unforgiven
Unforgiven
Oh sorry is a word you like to say
But sorry won't erase the things you did yesterday
And I want you to know that I didn't need you anyway
And this rope that we walk on is swaying
And the ties that bind us
They will never ever fray
But I want for you to know

Bye
Bye Boyfriend
I've been lying,
To keep you from this pain
Now you're crying,
And I know that I'm to blame
And I'll miss you
But its over now
I'm so sorry,
That it had to be this way
Please don't hate me,
But there's nothing you can say
To change my mind
I've got to go away
The guy that I fell for
He wanted more and more
Bye Bye Boyfriend
It's time that I'd be on my way
Bye Bye Boyfriend
I used to like the way you said
Baby back it up,
Lay down and work
It was fun but it couldn't last forever
Bye Bye pretty boy
It's time to, It's time to pack it up
Baby 'cause its over now
Let me tell you how it was when we started off
The tattoos and the lip pierce and right sound that you used to rock
Baby everything you do and say is messed up
Things have changed, down is up we're outta luck
And baby I'm sorry
That it had to be this way
Please don't hate me, but there's nothing you can say
To change my mind
The guy that I fell for
I've gotta go
He wanted more and more
Bye Bye Boyfriend
It's time that I'd be on my way
Bye Bye Boyfriend
I used to like the way you said
Baby back it up,
Lay down and work
It was fun but it couldn't last forever
Bye Bye pretty boy,
It's time to, it's time to pack it up
Baby 'cause its over now
You never put the effort into the things that really counted
A word here, and a kiss there
Could change the way its turning out
You work so hard at all the things I never cared about
How hands work & fingers moving, Eyes wide Shut
And baby I'm lonely
Though you're right in front of me
You controlled me
Tha was the girl I used to be
Gave up myself
Well its over now
The guy that I fell for
He wanted more and more
Bye Bye Boyfriend
It's time that I'd be on my way
Bye Bye Boyfriend
I used to like the way you said
Baby back it up,
Lay down and work
It was fun but it couldn't last forever
Bye Bye pretty boy,
It's time to, it's time to pack it up
Baby 'cause its over now
I'm backin up,
Baby cause it's over now
Pretty pretty pretty pretty boyfriend,
C'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon
Baby back it up
Lay down and work
It was fun but it couldnt last forever
Bye bye pretty boy
It's time to, it's time to pack it up
Baby 'cause it's over now

We
Went For a Ride
We went for a ride, mmm
We went for a ride oh yeah
We went for a ride ladadeo
We went for a ride oh
We went for a ride
Undercover of the twilight
And the traffic on the road
And there's only you and I
I hope we never get back home
Cause I'm feeling serenaded
By the coming of the night
And I wish we'd go forever
And I wish we could just
Drive away
We could drive away
We could drive away
Into the night
We went for a ride
With your words of consolation
And the trees of crystal white
I'll be praying for a red light
To extend this precious night
Cause we both know where I'm going
And we know it just ain't right
And there's nothing we can do
Except to keep on moving
Drive away
We could drive away
We could drive away
Into the night
We went for a ride, mmm
We went for a ride, oh yeah
We went for a ride ladadeo
We went for a ride oh
Oh, oh, oh
Here we are
We are alone together
We went for a ride
Here we are
We are alone together
Yeah, yeah
Here we are
We are alone together
We went for a ride
Here we are
We are alone together
Here we are
Here we are
We are alone together
Drive away
Drive away
To a place faraway
Here we are
We are alone together
Here we are
We are alone together, mmm yeah

Take
Me Away
I was waiting all my life to know you
(All about you)
And now I'm staring in your eyes, ocean blue
(All about you)
And in our minds, it comes so easily
But theres a feeling coming over me
I want to show you,
But theres nowhere we can really be free
Everybody's watchin'
Wouldn't it be good if we could be together
Take me away,
Take me far away from here
I will run with you
Don't be afraid
Navigate and I will steer
Into the sun, we will run
I try to remember when I was just a child
(In my room)
And my imagination used to run wild
(But I never knew)
That nothing's ever as it seems to be
When a dream collides with the reality
It should be easy when two people love each other truly
Everybody's talkin'
Wouldn't it be good if they would understand us
Take me away,
Take me far away from here
I will run with you
Don't be afraid (afraid)
Navigate and I will steer
Into the sun, we will run
We, will run.
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
We, will run.
Oh yeah yeah yeah
Wouldn't it be good if they would understand us
Wouldn't it be good if we could be together
Take me away
Take me away, (take me away)
Take me far away from here
I will run with you
Don't be afraid (Don't be afraid)
Navigate and I will steer
Into the sun, we will run
Run, whoa whoa whoa
I will run with you wherever you go
Don't be afraid
Let's runaway and I will steer
Into the sun, we will run.

Julia
Tell me this is not the end, Julia
You, my love, my oldest friend, Julia
I see you with flowers in your hair, Julia
Running around without a care
Your days were numbered
Yeah
And I want you to know
You're doing this to yourself
Time to show me the will to change
And I swear I will help you
I will, I will shine my light on you
Let the sunlight show your face, Julia
No one knows you in this place, Julia
I see there's a distance in your eyes, Julia
Can I even reach you if I try
Or is this goodbye
And I want you to know
You're doing this to yourself
Time to show me the will to change
And I swear I will help you
I will
I will shine my light on you
I will shine my light of hope
And change and everything that
Might have been
If you'd only hear my warning
If you'd only hear me calling
I would shine my light on you
Tell me that this is not the end, Julia
You, my love, my oldest friend, Julia
You put your faith in dreams that kill, Julia
Lying with beauty, breath so still
She couldn't be trusted
Yeah
And I want you to know
You're doing this to yourself
Time to show me the will to change
And I swear I will help you
I will, I will shine my light on you

Mmmm
Rock it till you drop it
You know what I'm sayin
When your walkin walkin,
Your body's talkin to me...but your mouth ain't makin a sound.
When I'm stalkin stalkin,
I can feel my body rockin what are these feelings I've found.
It's in the way that he moves,
It's in the way that he likes the things I do.
It's in the way that he grooves
You know I love it when he takes me dancing.

Tonight's the night we get this party on
And on, and on, and on and on and on.

You take me out on the floor.

For the jive that you've been drinkin and you got me wanting more.
It's in the way that he moves,
It's in the way that he likes the things I do.

You know I love it when he takes me dancing.

Cause a dream like this should never be this hard
If I should live this life without you, yeah

Revolution
Song
In my dream I break the chains that hold this place together
But in my dream the consequences would be so much better
Then they are
Cause beyond the walls that hold us here
Skies that stretch across the atmosphere
Oh a revolution is near
In my dream I hear the echoes of a recent battle yeah
Lost and wounded as the phoenix flies
Begin to settle for the night
But the words you use to hurt me now
Only seem to make me jump off some how
Oh a revolution is now
And the days will get warmer, and I'll take down my armor yeah
Together we can fight this feeling
And the demons that stalk us will eventually turn to dust yeah
Together we can start this healing
Oh yeah yeah
Oh hey, oh hey oh hey
Together we can start this healing
Oh hey, oh hey
Together we can fight this feeling
A revolution is near

A Rainbow
Away (Bonus Track)
You're only a rainbow away
And I'm sitting here soaking wet waiting for you
You're only a rainbow, just a rainbow away
And I'm reaching out
Hoping you see it too
But I'm telling you that I'm no fool
Cause I know what rainbows do
They fade away
Fade away
Fade away, away
Stormy tale
Found its way
And I wish I could hold you now
I'm only a rainbow away, my friend
And if you could see what others see
You wouldn't feel so bad
And I'm telling you
Cause I've been there too
That storms are like rainbows too
They fade away
Fade away
Fade away, away
Stormy tales
Drift away
And someone will be holding you now

Kiss
Me Fool
Tell me whom should I be to make you love me?
Tell me what does it mean to be alone?
Can't you see me standing staring out from a distance,
Hear my cry if you'd only listen
Out of focus into me and you
Kiss me fool, if you care.
And your words have any meaning.
Playing it cool is so unfair
Why this veil of secrecy?
God forbid,
Your friends found out what we did.
Why can't someone like you be with someone like me?
Tell me who should I be to make you love me?
Tell me what does it mean to be alone?
Can't you see me standing staring out from a distance,
Hear my cry if you'd only listen
Out of focus
Into me and you
Touch me fool, if you're allowed.
I'll be dancing in the corner.
It's so cool to play it proud,
Take your hands and cover me
I'm aware that all in love is fair,
But that's no reason to make me feel this way.
Tell me who should I be to make you love me?
Tell me what does it mean to be alone?
Can't you see me standing staring out from a distance,
Hear my cry if you'd only listen
Out of focus
Into me and you
And it hurts me so bad to deny it, oh,
And these feelings are out of control.
Do you know what it's like to want something so bad
And then having to let it go?
And it hurts me to know that this time in our lives
So soon will be in the past oh, oh, oh
And we spend it pretending and playing it cool.
Never knowing, never knowing,
Never knowing what,
What we should've been.
Tell me who should I be to make you love me?
Tell me what does it mean to be alone?
You've got me wondering if I'm good enough
Pretty enough, giving enough, special enough
Tell me who should I be to make you love me?
Who should I be? Who should I be? Oh
To make you love me?
Who should I be? Who should I be? Oh
To make you love me?
Who should I be? Who should I be? Oh
To make you love me?
