You know I wanna be a rockstar
So I can take you home with me
I wanna get up late
Go out on dates
And get in all the clubs for free
So when you see me standing here
And I see you standing there
And you watch while I'm up here
You know I'm the one
You know I wanna be sedated
With twenty-twenty-four hours to go
So get down on your knees
I'll teach you to please
When we hook up after the show
I dont know how to be complacent
Or ever have to mean a word I say
So open up your throat
Hope you don't choke
Welcome to a typical day
So when you see me standing here
And I see you standing there
And you watch while I'm up here
You know I'm the one
The one, the one, the one
Reality is warped for me when constantly
You tell me I'm so cool, To you
Just photo shoots and interviews
And killer food
What's a girl to do, With you
So I grew up to be a rockstar
Dont talk to me about legality
With your ass in the air
I really don't care
What your mama thinks of me
So now you see me standing here
And you're still standing there
And you watch while I'm up here
We're heading south I hope we'll make it
We'll waste it
I'm kickin up dust I aim to break this
Or break in
Twelve hundred miles away from home
Where we can live all alone
We'll survive on cabbage wine
And things that we can pluck
From out of the sea
We'll wait until it falls apart, oh yeah
Cliff diving oceans in the dark, oh yeah
Kerguelen
Mountains are rising from the ocean
It's frozen
Some island we call desolation
It's crazy
Just one more mile and we'll be home
Where we can sleep all alone
We'll survive on cabbage wine
And things that we can pluck
From out of the sea
We'll wait until it falls apart, oh yeah
Cliff diving oceans in the dark, oh yeah
Kerguelen
Just one more mile and we'll be home
Where we can live all alone
We'll survive on cabbage wine
And things that we can pluck
From out of the sea
We'll wait until it falls apart, oh yeah
Cliff diving oceans in the dark, oh yeah
We always saved the best for last
Till nothing was left
That day we spent out by the lake
I'll never regret
You made me feel like I was tough
Like I was the best
A picture face down on the bar
I'll never forget
A thrift shop memory
And all the books you stole from me
Of all the things we barely made
The life we lost, the way we gave
The best of all the times I spent with you
I hope you're happy too
That summer night we told ourselves
We'd always be true
We watched the sun erase the moon
And turn into blue
Waiting for some things to change
Or hoping that they'd stay the same
Of all the things we barely made
The life we lost, the way we gave
The best of all the times I spent with you
I hope you're happy too
What was it we forgot to say?
Getting good at keeping our eyes closed
And I guess I lost my innocence that day
When you told me we'd be friends
But you're still so much of all I am
Of all the things we barely made
The life we lost, the way we gave
The best of all the times I spent with you
I hope you're happy too
To all the things we barely made
The life we lost, the way we gave
The best of all the times I spent with you
I hope you're happy too
Happy too, happy too, happy too
You got the cash, you're gonna sail
You got your words, or half-baked tale
You got your looks that got you here
You're dead inside, you can't steer
You rather get away then get real
You don't want a life you can't steal
You're a free radical, a free radical, a free radical
You're a free radical
Hey Hey Hey
You got your scheme, got your act
You only got your own back
You're selling tin like it was gold
You're scared to death you're alone
You say you wanna leave this fucked place
You don't want a life you can't fake
You're a free radical, a free radical, a free radical
You're a free radical
Hey Hey Hey
Hey Hey Hey
Hey Hey Hey
You say you wanna leave this fucked place
You don't want a life you can't fake
You say you wanna leave this fucked place
You don't want a life you can't fake
You're a free radical, a free radical, a free radical
You're a free radical
A free radical, a free radical, a free radical
You're a free radical
Hey Hey Hey
Hey Hey Hey
Hey Hey Hey
It sure wasn't like Camelot
You don't know what you want except for more
And you're sitting so still again
There's nobody to blame when you're insecure
You twist my words around too much
I'm getting dizzy from the smell of urinal mints down
the hall
Just go
You're talking at me, wondering if you count
Figure it out
And now, it's all about giving up
But nothing I do's enough, you make no sense
Still it's all just a game to you
My opinions are strange to you ...at least they're
meant
You twist my words around too much
I'm getting dizzy from the smell of urinal mints down
the hall
Just go
You're talking at me, wondering if you count
Figure it out
You're talking at me, and now it's comin' down
Figure it out
I hate the way I'm doing this so I can be alright to
somebody else
I heard you say, "You don't know what it's all about"
But if you try you'll figure it out.
You're talking at me, wondering if you count
Figure it out
You're talking at me, and now it's comin' down
Figure it out
Figure it out
Figure it out
It's over
You told me
And you don't wanna know me
Alone now
I know that
You're never gonna get me down
That's not the way nice girls behave
Oh yeah I know you told me
It's not your choice, I have a voice
I guess you just don't hear me
Don't try to tell me that it's not allowed
That same old story that's been going 'round
I'm out of bounds
It's over
You told me
And you don't wanna know me
Alone now
I know that
You're never gonna get me down
Can't get me down
Is this the way nice girls should play
I gotta say I don't care
I'll make you see something in me
You never knew was there
What will it take to make you understand
Our differences don't threaten what you planned
Well here I am
It's over
You told me
And you don't wanna know me
Alone now
I know that
You're never gonna get me down
Can't get me down
What will it take to make you understand
That I won't break and I don't give a damn
Well here I am
It's over
You told me
And you don't wanna know me
Alone now
I know that
You're never gonna get me down
Can't get me down
Can't get me down
Can't get me down
Said so let's get out of here
I'm sick and tired of feeling like I don't belong
Don't get me wrong
It's just a song
Took a walk down to the beach
Lately my life has felt so out of reach
Well, can't you see
It's just not me
I don't want to be
So angry, angry, so angry, angry
So angry, angry, so angry, angry
Guess my cup got kinda full
No more can I live life by the Golden Rule
Cuz as of late
I've learned to hate
Watch my cat lie on your bed
Realize that it's in my head
Not my fault, I'm fucking done
It's just not fun, And I wanna run
I don't want to be
So angry, angry, so angry, angry
So angry, angry, so angry, angry
See my life and it's on the ground
Raise it's head and then lay back down
It's not the way that it should be
But I'm better now
Yeah, I'm better now.
So angry, angry, so angry, angry
So angry, angry, so angry, angry
Pack your bags, get out the door
I don't want to see your face no more
No good memories, no good times
I just want to leave it all behind
So angry
So angry, angry, so angry, angry
So angry, angry, so angry, angry
Waiting on a stranger
The air here makes me sick
Everybody is going somewhere
The man in the hat
Smiles at me like when we said goodbye
He sits and smokes in silence and I wonder
You gotta go, I wanna know, I wanna know
Here in my heart I've gone too far, tearin' apart
Thirty thousand feet above
And somewhere in between
My life and my love
Somewhere far away
I know you're sitting on a hillside
Drinking with your good friends, laughing
You gotta go, I wanna know, I wanna know
Here in my heart I've gone too far, tearin' apart
You gotta go, I wanna know, I wanna know
Here in my heart I've gone too far, tearin' apart
And I've got it in my head
I'll never love this way again
So I'll wait
What else is there for me
In this world while you adore me?
You gotta go, I wanna know, I wanna know
Here in my heart I've gone too far, tearin' apart
You gotta go, I wanna know, I wanna know
Here in my heart I've gone too far, tearin' apart
You cross your fingers hide away
Slightly dim but not at all okay
You talk and talk about yourself
It must be rough when there is no one else
Putting on your best face
You're the big rat in the race
You feel down
And now you know you've made it
Come this far
Too bad it's all been wasted
Are you still just as insecure
Completely loyal if it's on your terms
Still always right and so high strung
Looking so good but no you're not much fun
Putting everyone through hell
Don't you know that I wish you well
Where are your friends
Now that you have made it
Turn it on
But I know how you fake it
By yourself blame someone else too bad
Putting everyone through hell
Don't you know that I wish you well
You feel down
And now you know you've made it
Come this far
Too bad it's all been wasted
Where are your friends
Now that you have made it
Turn it on
But I know how you fake it
And all and all we lose control
Uncomplicated
We're going fast the music's blasting
Maybe I'm too loud
It's all about
Here and now
When nothing's said
You're pressed against me
Wine drips down my neck
Your breath is heavy
I'm so willing and I hate it
Erase the line
I feel so naughty and I love it
Tonight I'm blind
And I know what you want
And all and all we lose control
Uncomplicated
We're going fast the music's blasting
Maybe I'm too loud
It's all about
Here and now
The day's been long
And you're just what I need
To turn me on
The bottle's empty
I'm not waiting, I'm willing
Erase the line
It's going nowhere but who cares
Tonight I'm blind
And I know what you want
And all and all we lose control
Uncomplicated
We're going fast the music's blasting
Maybe I'm too loud
It's all about
Here and now
And I know what you want
And all and all we lose control
Uncomplicated
We're going fast the music's blasting
Maybe I'm too loud
And all and all we lose control
Uncomplicated
We're going fast the music's blasting
Maybe I'm too loud
It's all about
So they fired Union Workers
And literacy's down
David Cash is a free man
Hollywood's defining politics
A heel for a kick
Conform or be damned
He's got a gun in his hand
Now he feels like a man
But he's only in grade school
Still teaching your kids to hate
A black or a gay
Don't look up
Sky's falling down
And everybody's talking about
Sex in the white house
Sex in the white house
Sex in the white house
Sex in the white house
Cuts bleeding social security
More funds for the military
Millions have HIV
Scientists are breaking new ground
I wonder how Dolly is doing now
United States of AMedia
Distract We the People
From the fact we've been had
Repeat offenders are killing us
No system of Justice
And here comes a hurricane
And everybody's talking about
Sex in the white house
Sex in the white house
Sex in the white house
Sex in the white house
Mother Country
Uncle Sam
Do you even know who I am
Sex in the white house
Sex in the white house
Sex in the white house
Sex in the white house
Sex in the white house
How could we say its over
When its not over (baby)

And say you wont miss me when Im gone
Chorus

The love I see in your eyes

Youll always be a part of me
I know that well still have the magic we cant deny

Chorus
I dont wanna talk about it

Without you in my life I would be so lonely
Without you in my arms I would feel so empty

(Without you in my life
without you in my life
without you in my life)
Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today
(Madam)
Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today
(Madam)
Sorry to be delayed
But last evening down at lover's lane, she strayed
Madam
(Miss Otis regrets)
Regrets
(Miss Otis regrets)
Regrets
(Miss Otis regrets)
Miss Otis regrets, she's unable
(Madam)
To lunch today
When she woke up and found
That her dream of love was gone
(Madam)
She ran, she ran to the man
Who had lead her astray
And from under her black velvet gown
She drew a gun and shot her lover down
Madam
(Miss Otis regrets)
Regrets
(Miss Otis regrets)
Regrets
(Miss Otis regrets)
Miss Otis regrets, she's unable, unable
Unable to lunch today
When the mob came and got her
And dragged her from the jail
They strung her up, up, up, up on the, oh
Willow across the way
And the moment before she died
She lifted her lovely head and cried
(Miss Otis regrets)
Regrets
(Miss Otis regrets)
Regrets
(Miss Otis regrets)
Miss Otis regrets, she's unable, she's unable
Hey sister! Go sister, soul sister, go sister,
Hey sister! Go sister, soul sister, go sister.
He met Marmalade down in Old New Orleans
Struttin' her stuff on the street
She say, "Hello, hey Joe, you wanna give it a go?"
Getcha getcha ya ya da da, getcha getcha ya ya here
Mocha chocolata ya ya creole Lady Marmalade.
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?
He sat in her boudoir while she freshened up
The boy drank all that magnolia wineUpon her black satin sheet where he started to freak
Getcha getcha ya ya da da, getcha getcha ya ya here, . . .
Voulez-vous coucher lavec moi ce soir? . . .
Touchin' her skin feelin' silky smooth, colour of cafe au lait
Made the savage beast inside roar until it cried
More - more - more
Now he's back home doin' nine to five, livin' his grey flannel life
But when he turns off to sleep, old mem'ries creep
More - more - more
Getcha getcha ya ya da da, getcha getcha ya ya here, . . .
Share a tear for the world
I feel it deep down in my soul
When I think about
All the things we're going through
Night falls and I'm calling out your name
And you're right where I want you to be
Tears turns to stars in my eyes
And your love is an old mystery
Super lover, I wonder
Does every other lover in the world
Make each other feel the way you make me feel?
I think I'm going insane
You bring out the need in me
Never felt such joy or such pain
I know I ought to go but I just can not leave
Super lover, I wonder
Does every other lover in the world
Make each other feel the way you make me feel?
Never knew anybody like you
No one can move me like you do
Love on top of love
More love than I ever dreamed of
Baby, baby won't you touch me, hug me
Make me, make me, drive me crazy?
Super lover, I wonder
Does every other lover in the world
Make each other feel the way you make me feel?
Super lover, I wonder
Any other lover in the world
Make each other feel the way you make me feel?
Super lover, I wonder
To resurrect ourselves
We disembowel our saints
We never underestimate
The destructive power of change
We find another way
We dream up stupid shit
To while away our days
There's time for everything
We're always searchin' for what's wrong
No, never, so run now, no, never, it's all wrong
Soothe me, lover in my heart, left me nowhere
It's all wrong, soothe me, lover in my heart
We dance around the wire
A bunch of piranhas
We dress ourselves in words
Armed and overheard
We're always searchin' for what's wrong
No, never, so run now, no, never, it's all wrong
Soothe me, lover in my heart, left me nowhere
It's all wrong, soothe me, lover in my heart
Hey sister, go sister, soul sister, go sister
Hey sister, go sister, soul sister, go sister
He met Marmalade down in Old New Orleans
Struttin' her stuff on the street
She said, "Hello, hey Joe
You wanna give it a go?"

Where he started to freak
Gitchi gitchi ya ya da da

Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?

Hey, hey, hey
Seeing her skin, feeling silky smooth
Color of cafe au lait
Made the savage beast inside
Roaring until it cried, "More, more, more!"
Now he's at home doing 9 to 5
Living his brave life of lies
But when he turns off to sleep
All memories keep more, more, more
Gitchi gitchi ya ya da da da
Gitchi gitchi ya ya here
Mocha chocolata, ya ya
Creole Lady Marmalade
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?
Voulez-vous couchez avec moi ce soir?

Said Ive got something to say
My dear lady,
Dear Rosa,
I want to say whats on my mind
I m writing you a letter
With love and hope in every line
I try not to think about the pain
But how your sacrifice will reign
Dear Rosa,
Who would believe?
So hot and tired
What made you decide?
That you would rather die
Than just stand so someone else could ride
And prove that lie again
That the color of our skin made us less than other men
Dear Rosa,
Sit down servant
Come on in
How long? Will this hate go on?
Change our lives and now youre gone
Somebody said, and still the cross is burned.
Dear Rosa,
The spirit will yearn.
Sitting down in the front of the bus
You made a stand for all of us
You didnt move when they called you names
You knew that a mind was the hardest thing to change.
Living in a line, your freedom denied,
After Malcolm, Martin and John gave their life.
Dear Rosa,
Its so hard not to cry
Dear Rosa,
You didnt live to see the day we talked to one another
Regardless of the color of our skin
Or the gods we believed in
When I look around and see people filled with pain
Dear Rosa,
How did you keep your faith?
Yes, tell me
How long, will this go on?
You changed our lives
Now your gone away, goneeeeeeee
Somebody says, and still the cross is burned.
Dear Rosa,
The spirit will yearn.
Chorus: (Background)
Dear Rosa,
Oh we miss you yes, yes we do
Uh huh, oh the trials and troubles
Regardless of the right things to do
Rosa,
What a wonderful woman?
I am so glad
Rosa, you sat down.
Chorus: (Background)
Rosa, tell will we ever ride
Where would I be, Rosa if you did not believe
Keep the memory; youve been a blessing to me
I want the world to sing, oh
Chorus: (Background)
Rosa oh, you have been good to me
Change our lives
Oh the pride that I feel and I know that its real
Somebody say, hey hey
Dear Rosa,
You sat on down
Ill keep saying it
Yes you did
Tell me somebody
Dear Rosa (repeat 6Xs)
Chorus:
Rosa, I dont know where Id be, but I know yes indeed.
Change our lives, and the pride that I feel, yes I know that its real.
Ladies, ladies, there comes a time in your life
When you gotta do some things
That you never thought you would have to do
I ain't your superwoman, I ain't your wonder woman
I ain't gonna wash your clothes
I ain't the floor, you're walking on
I'm gonna keep the car
Stop caring where you are
Buy your own cigarettes, walk your own pets
I'm out the door
Tonight when you come home, I will be gone
Ladies
Tonight ain't gotta fight, I'll be alright
I've seen the light
When you turn on your radio and you hear her voice
You will know that she made her choice
This ain't another love song 'bout who done you wrong
Man she talkin' 'bout, she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
Roll, roll, roll, roll
Roll, roll, roll, roll
Ladies, if you feel me, let me see your hands up
Hands up, hands up
Put your hands in the air like you just don't care
Keep on waving them, girls, I know, I know
Tonight when you come home, I will be gone
Ladies
Tonight, ain't gotta fight, I'll be alright
I've seen the light
When you turn on your radio and you hear her voice
You will know that she made her choice
This ain't another love song 'bout who done you wrong
Man she talkin' bout she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, so she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
(Roll out)
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
(Roll out, roll out)
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
(Roll out)
Roll, roll, roll, roll
(Roll out)
Roll, roll, roll, roll
(Roll out, roll out, roll out, roll out)
You took me for granted
All that pain drove me nearly insane
I can't take it anymore
That's why I'm out the door
Tonight when you come home, I will be gone
Ladies
Tonight, ain't gotta fight, I'll be alright
I've seen the light
When you turn on your radio and you hear her voice
You will know that she made her choice
This ain't another love song 'bout who done you wrong
Man, she talkin' 'bout, she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, so she gotta roll out
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
(Roll out)
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
(Roll out, roll out)
She gotta roll out, she gotta roll out
(Roll out)
Roll, roll, roll, roll
(Roll out)
Roll, roll, roll, roll
(Roll out, roll out, roll out, roll out)
Ladies
Roll out, roll out, roll out, roll out
