Why did you go so far away?
When all I wanted was for you to please stay
I've been sleeping these months away
Cause Stephen you're my night and day
All of those times
That I was unkind
Can't stop regretting
Memories stuck in my mind
Something I just don't know what to say
Stephen you're my night and day
There was a time
When I would say that things would be okay
But not today
I've been sleeping these months away
Cause Stephen you're my night and day
Cause Stephen
Oh Stephen
Cause Stephen you're my night and day
Well someone told me yesterday That when you throw your love away You act as if you don't care You look as if you're going somewhere But I just can't convince myself I couldn't live with no one else And I can only play that part And sit and nurse my broken heart So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely Now no one's knocked upon my door For a thousand years or more All made up and nowhere to go Welcome to this one man show Just take a seat they're always free No surprise no mystery In this theatre that I call my soul I always play the starring role So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely So lonely
I can't stop thinking
while I'm on the can
your eyes pop into my mind again and again
oh annie
why can't you understand
every night I dream about being your man
but every time I come up to you
my throat turns dry I'm tripping on my shoes
I don't know what I'm gonna do
cause I think I have fallen in love with you
it's true
wishing that
you'd come up to me
you're always on my mind you're driving me crazy
I'm missing
your personality
you're always on my mind you're making me lazy
but every time I come up to you
my throat turns dry I'm tripping on my shoes
I don't know what I'm gonna do
cause I think I have fallen in love with you
so please oh please won't you tell me that you love me too
something in the way she never looks my way I'm in love
something in the way she doesn't hear a word I say I'm in love
but people say we're not the same
she's out of my league I'm insane
am I wasting my life waiting for you, is it true
am I wasting my life on you
so tell me it's not true
something in the way she looked at me today I'm in love
something in the way she says for me to get away I'm in love
but people say we're not the same
she's out of my league I'm insane
am I wasting my life waiting for you, is it true
am I wasting my life on you
so tell me it's not true
In the middle of the night
With nothing to do
I was looking for a fight
I was thinking of you
I was thinking of you
I was thinking of you
And how you never came through
I was thinking of you
All my hopes and my dreams
They're all gone in a flash
Things are never what they seem
It's always crash
Crash
Crash
I was thinking of you
I was thinking of you
And how you never came through
I was thinking of you
I was thinking of you
And for a while I was brainless
But your skin was so tender
I forgot what a thought was
But then I remembered
I was thinking of you
I was thinking of you
And how you never came through
I was thinking of you
I was thinking of you
Everybody
Grab somebody
Put your shoes on
Shake your body
Everybody
Grab somebody
Put your shoes on
And shake your body
I was thinking of you
I was thinking of you
And how you never came through
I was thinking of you
I was thinking of you
I was thinking of you
I bought everything that you asked for, everything but you wanted more, I guess I wasn't quite enough. I did everything that you asked me to, everything that I could do, I guess I wasn't quite enough. I should have acted like a hopeless pessimist, 'cause I know that you're a sucker for that type, and if I told you I was gonna kill myself, maybe then you'd comfort me and hold me tight. I took you every place that you wanted to go, every single place that I know, I guess I wasn't quite enough. I told you everything that you wanted to hear, I said I love you in your ear, I guess I wasn't quite enough. (Chorus)
Its taken lots of time for me
To fuck you over properly
But things work out eventually
I know
You're that thing that sinks the ship
The splinter in my fingertip
The wound that rips
The dream that dips below
But I know your time has come
Yeah I know your time has come
You were going to hit the ground
You're singing as you're going down
You'll bang hello
But all it says is goodbye
No one here can help you now
Your moment's over
Take your bow
There's truly no way back
Don't even try
Cause I know your time has come
Yeah I know your time has come
And I know your time has come
Oh
But there are some things I must consider
Like what is the reason that I'm so bitter
But you won't get off so easy
Cause I don't forgive so easy
Since you're gonna pay for what you've done
Things that bring you to my mind
Dysentery puke and vile
You're the most disgusting thins I've met
And I know your time has come
Yeah I know your time has come
When the underdogs have won
(And you know that we've won)
Yeah I know your time has come
(Come on come on come on come on)
Go
(This song is dedicated to all the player haters out there)
The same motherfuckers that are always trying to bring you down
Well from this point on
Things are gonna change
Cause the Hippos are back up in the house one more time
(So step up)
Its taken lots of time for me
To fuck you over properly
Please don't take it personally
It's over
Over
Over
Over
Over
you think you know who I am
but you don't know who I am
you think that you're so smart
you're just as dumb as I am
so don't try to hide what's behind those eyes
behind that smile and those big blue eyes
I can see right through your lies
I see you at the beach
you're lying in the sand
you seem so hard to reach
you're trying as hard as you can
so don't try to hide what's behind those eyes
behind that smile and those big blue eyes
I can see right through your lies
you're struggling...
I hate to say it but your life is not right
you sleep all day and watch tv all night
you have your dreams, I know you have your dreams
but it's about time you forgot all your dreams
but I'm something, yeah I'm something
you think you know me but you don't know nothing
I've done it all, yeah I've done it all
I'm just waiting for the right phone call
can't you see? that you and me
we share one or two similarities
I had my dreams, you know I had my dreams
sometimes I regret I forgot all my dreams
but I'm something, yeah I'm something
you think you know me but you don't know nothing
I've done it all, yeah I've done it all
I'm just waiting for the right phone call
and I can't believe it
the things that they say
no I can't believe it
I can give you something to break
If you just let me know
The road of destruction you've paved
How much longer will it take?
Save yourself before it's passed
You know you're never gonna last
You're never gonna last
You're never gonna last
You know you're never gonna last
We'll see you later on the way out
So you best get out of the way
We understand the point you failed to make
Calm down didn't mean to shout
Brace yourself you're going too fast
You know you're never gonna last
You're never gonna last
You're never gonna
Slow it down before you crash
No you're never gonna last
I can give you something to break
If you just let me know
The road to destruction you've paved
How much longer will it take?
Save yourself before it's past
You know you're never gonna last
You're never gonna last
You're never gonna
Slow it down before you crash
You know you're never gonna last
Slow it down before you crash
You're never gonna last
Slow it down before you crash
No you're never gonna last
I've been waiting al this time
For you to realize
That no one suits you quite like me
And that's the way it should be
It should be
You and me
Together forever we'll be
I will not rest until you are with me
No I will not rest until you are with me
I swear
I swear
It's all that I need
I swear
I swear
It's all that I need
I saw you just the other day
I wish that I would hear you say
What you're doing
Maybe we could chill sometime?
You'll see
It should be
You and me
Together forever
I will not rest until you are with me
I swear
I swear
It's all that I need
I swear
I swear
It's all that I need
Say you love me
All and all is true
I still love you
Together forever we will be
I will not rest until you are with me
No I will not rest until you are with me
I swear
I swear
It's all I need
I will not rest until you are with me
No I will not rest until you are with me
I swear
I swear
It's all that I need
I swear
I swear
It's all that I need
Say you love me
ooh wah ooh
you think I'm square
don't like the clothes I wear
the way I comb my hair
the way I sit and stare at you
it's just a game to take the spot-
light off of me
I'm just afraid of what you might think
sing another stupid song
about everything that's wrong
girls and other surface things
do mean a lot to me but I
I could not let you in
let you in too deep
I'm just afraid of what you might think
paulina, you know this isn't me
I've been dishonest now it's time to come clean
I said paulina, I'm the one for you you'll see
just as soon as you see me
don't walk away from me listen to what I say
all right I'm sorry I never wanted it this way I took it
I took it too far with my insecurities
I'm just afraid of what you might think...
can you see what I am seeing
now that I am on my own
I can't explain the way I'm feeling
I question everything I know
I can't believe what she said
it went straight to my head
I'm lacking inspiration
where's my inspiration
I had it , and I lost it,
now you've got to help me get it back again
I can't believe a word she says to me
it brings me closer to insanity
why can't she just understand
the things she says could kill a man
I can't believe what she said
it went straight to my head
I'm lacking inspiration
where's my inspiration
I had it , and I lost it,
now you've got to help me get it back again
I can't take it
I'll never make it
[Instrumental]
Why must you pick on me? Have you no sympathy? I'm just trying to get to school. I lack popularity, no friends to ride with me. So I'm alone in the car pool (lane). When I saw those flashing lights, when I heard you read my rights, I knew this wasn't gonna be my day...So, Officer please don't ticket me, my violation doesn't deserve a citation. Please, I won't bother you so don't bother me. ";Sorry son but that's what I've got to do."; I'm tired of these stupid rules. I've got to waste my day at traffic school, and on top of that I've got to pay a fine. The CHP likes to pick on me. They've got no sympathy. They're nothing but fat red neck swine. (Chorus)
I've been in a bind for a while
I can't find this girl is quite my style
Ever since she walked out on me.
You were the one for me.
We'd sit and watch our MTV.
Why did you have to walk out on me.
I'm reaching insanity.
I'm reaching insanity.
Yeah Diane come back to me.
I'll be everything that we can be.
I'll join the football team.
Diane come back to me.
You are the only one for me.
You are my destiny.
Please tell me it wasn't right.
Two stared crossed lovers in the night.
Why did you have to walk out on me.
You were the one for me.
We'd sit and watch our MTV.
Why did you have to walk out on me.I'm reaching insanity.
I'm reaching insanity.
Yeah Diane come back to me.
I'll be everything that we can be.
I'll lose my dignity.
Diane come back to me.
You are the only one for me.
You are my destiny.
Diane come back to me.
I'll be everything that we could be.
Popularity.
Popularity.
So you know that everybody's going to the ska show when it used to be just you. You feel betrayed, alone, left out. All your favorite bands have all sold out. And now you see them on MTV. No way they're gonna remember little old me, what's become of the ska scene? All the bands want money. All the bands are mean. So please come out to the show tonight. I promise everything is gonna be all right. The boys are gonna start a pit. But all you wanna do is dance, you're sick of this punk bit.
Lying in my bed today
Listening to my records play
Nothing seems to go my way
It's out of my hands they say
It's hard
I know
It's how it goes
Hold on
Hold on
Be strong
Yeah
Rainy summer days in May
Wishing for a sunny day
But nothing seems to go my way
It's all in my head they say
It's hard
I know
It's how it goes
Hold on
Hold on
Be strong
So listen to what I say
I don't mean to sound cliche
But nothing seems to go my way
It's hard
I know
It's how it goes
Hold on
Hold on
Be strong
It's hard
I know
It's how it goes
Hold on
Hold on
Be strong
Hold on
No man should see what these eyes have seen
The mess that I've cleaned
The people so green
Things that were said
Went straight to your head
Evil will show
You know how it's grown
With blood on the path
We will not do the math
We don't care
Oh
So it is told that the air will be cold over there
Please take good care
We're going home
We're going home
We're going home
Finally rest these old bones
His majesty sleeps high in the trees
Sends his palms spinning
From west to the east
Begging him please
To see how it feels
This wasn't agreed on
When they sign the deal
With blood on her path
We will not do the math
We don't care
Oh
So it is told that the air will be cold over there
Please take good care
We're going home
We're going home
We're going home
Finally rest these old bones
We're going home
We're going home
Finally rest these old bones
No man should see what these eyes have seen
The mess that I've cleaned
The people so green
Things that were said
Went straight to your head
Evil will show
With blood on her path
We will not do the math
We don't care
Oh
So it is told that the air will be cold over there
Please take good care
We're going home
We're going home
We're going home
Finally rest these old bones
Home
We're going home
We're going home
We're going home
It's two in the morning, I'm tired as hell. What am I doing behind the wheel? The lights have all blurred into a row. How long I'll be up, I just don't know. I'm falling asleep, asleep at the wheel, this feels like a dream but this is real. I've got a lot on my mind, I've been driving all night. You can bet I'll be driving when out comes the light. I've been on the road so long that I'm gonna crack, I've been ";On the road"; longer than Jack Kerouac. (Chorus)
I dig you cause your fashion is so keen
I dig the way you look in those tight jeans
And I don't wanna wait any longer to tell you
What's on my mind
I thought you'd want to know
What's driving me mad
Girl you got that certain something
I wish I had
I need so bad
I dig you cause your grammar is so good
You call me on my bad habits
I should pay more attention to my conversations with you
I thought you'd want to know
What's driving me mad
Girl you got that certain something
I wish I had
I need so bad
So I'm not over you at all
I miss that way you love to make me feel small
Won't you please come back to me?
I'll make you happy
You'll see
I thought you'd want to know
What's driving me mad
Girl you got that certain something
I wish I had
I need you so bad

Yeah we can make it
Through fog and rain
We can make it

The word gets around
From show to shore

They try to keep us down
But we'll fight for more
We've got the sound
You've been looking for
(Yeah)

Turn up your radio
Till your speakers both explode
Turn up your radio
They've got no style
And they're such a bore

You better hide your dollars
Better lock your doors
Cause we've got the sound
You've been looking for
We're here

Got my 1987 yellow Volvo station wagon
I got my homies in the back
Got the windows rolled down
And the radio is blasting
It's getting late
But we don't care
We've got the wind blowing through our hair
We've got no place to go
And no specific destination
But we'll know when we get there
As darkness turns to light
Everything's gonna be alright
When summertime is here
There's nothing left to fear
Yeah summertime is here and I'm so happy
Oh yeah
She's got her hands across my thighs
She's got the Middle Eastern eyes
She's got the Cinderella lips
Glossy pink lips
Also neon and blue eyes
We'll be to Mexico by light
Heading sounds on I-5
We got all kinds of commitments
But it doesn't really matter
Cause it all makes sense tonight
Alright
As darkness turns to light
Everything's gonna be alright
When summertime is here
There's nothing left to fear
Yeah summertime is here and I'm so happy
Yeah summertime is here
There's nothing left to fear
Yeah summertime is here and I'm so happy
So happy
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Open your eyes
Pull up the blinds
Today's a sunny day
Despite what they're saying
You're gonna make it
I know you'll find a way
So come on and take my hand
We'll be off to a distant land
Because it's a nice day to get away
From all the pain inside
A wonderful day to run away
Run away and hide
We'll be alright
People so near
I know that scene
But it ain't worth your time
They're all so shallow
So insincere
You learn to pay no mind
So come on and take my hand
We'll be off to a distant land
Because it's a nice day to get away
From all the pain inside
A wonderful day to run away
Run away and hide
We'll be alright
We'll be alright
We'll be alright
We'll be alright
We'll be alright
So come on and take my hand
We'll be off to a distant land
Because it's a nice day to get away
From all the pain inside
Wonderful day to run away
Run away and hide
It's a nice day to get away
From all the pain inside
Wonderful day to run away
Run away and hide
We'll be alright
(Run away and hide)
You've been here forever
I've

They said you were clever
Let's see what you can do
Cause I never wanted
Wanted to leave it
Said I can't believe it
Los Angeles
(Los Angeles)
Los Angeles
(Yeah I can't believe it)
Los Angeles

Things can't be easy
You're getting older

Living in Van Nuys
Cal-i-forn-i-a
What else could I say?
Cause I never wanted
Wanted to believe it
Said I can't believe it
Los Angeles
(Los Angeles)
Los Angeles
(Yeah I can't believe it)
Los Angeles
(The west side)
Los Angeles
You said you were leaving
Heading out to the east coast
Cause your heart was bleeding
And people can be so
But you must remember
That it ain't the weather
That's gonna protect you
They will still neglect you
But I'll always love you
Said I've always loved you
(So come on home)
Said I've always loved you
So get back in your car and head west to California
The sun will be shining
And we could be dining by the ocean blue
Cause I never wanted
Wanted to leave
Said I can't believe it
Los Angeles
(Los Angeles)
Los Angeles
(Yeah I can't believe it)
Los Angeles
(Los fues)

You get me going like a wind up toy
So pay attention to a broken boy
You got me going
Well I cannot stop it and if you keep me going
Gonna see me pop
I'm in love with what you do
The way that I'm attached with you
Self fulfilled and to a smile
The list could go for miles
(All the perfect things you do)
I know what you're thinking when you cry
(When you cry)
I know what you're thinking when you smile
(When you smile)
I know that you're just a little child
I know you know

You've got me going like a grade school crush
My head is spinning and my face is flushed
You've got me going like a fast paced heart
And if you keep me going, gonna fall apart
I could write a thousand words
Useless nouns and needless verbs
I could shout a million times
Until the neighbors hear my cries
(All the perfect things you do)
I know what you're thinking when you cry
(When you cry)
I know what you're thinking when you smile
(When you smile)
I know that you're just a little child

All the perfect things you do
I can hear your sound dripping down my ears
Is anybody out there?
I can feel your pulse like an eight oh eight
Is anybody out there?
And the beats don't stop 'til your body drops
And the beats don't stop 'til your body drops
And the beats don't stop 'til your body drops
And the beats don't stop 'til your body drops
I can see your breath dripping down my skin
Is anybody out there?
I can feel your waves like a theramin
Is anybody out there?
And the beats don't stop 'til your body drops
And the beats don't stop 'til your body drops
And the beats don't stop 'til your body drops
And the beats don't stop 'til your body drops
(Oh-oh-oh-way-oh)
And the beats don't stop 'til your body drops

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
when I was just a young boy
I loved to play with my toys
and sit around and watch tv
sometimes we'd go to the beach
I loved to go to the beach
until an old man came to me
I said hey mister, why do you look so blue
he said it's nothing you just
look like someone I once new
I said oh really as I looked into his eyes
right then and there I knew this man would tell no lies
he said
I am a man of glory, I've got a million stories
if you would just listen to me
I've sailed across this ocean, given so much devotion
but just one thing has stayed with me, come here and see
we'd find a park with flowers
we'd sit and talk for hours
he taught me ancient history
he said
I used to be a great man
I traveled across this great land
until an old man came to me
and said
I am a man of glory, I've got a million stories
if you would just listen to me
I've been around the world
been with all kinds of girls
but just one thing has stayed with me, come here and see
but now I am much older
my life has grown much colder
I only care about one thing
how can I make more money
life's empty without money
and then a voice spoke out to me
and said
I am a man of glory, I've got a million stories
if you would just listen to me
I used to be a rich man
money can ruin a good man
just look what it has done to me
no I'm, I'm not the same as I used to be...
the things you claim, I can't except the blame
better watch your back I'm gonna win this game
you try to phase me, you can't phase me
I got you thinking that I feel no pain
but I feel it...
are you insane, enjoy inflicting pain
better watch your back I'm gonna ruin your name
try to control me, but I'm too strong you see
I got you thinking that I feel no pain
but I feel it...
you try to bring me down
you can't bring me down
but I can bring you down
I walk along the city streets you used to walk along with me
And every step I take reminds me of just how we used to be
Oh how can I forget you, girl
When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me
Shadows fall, I pass the small cafwhere we would dance at night
And I can't help recalling how it felt to kiss and hold you tight
How can I forget you, girl
When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me
I was born to love her
And I will never be free
You'll always be a part of me
Woah woah wooah
If you should find to miss the sweet and tender love we used to share
Just go back to the places where we used to go and I'll be there
Oh how can I forget you, girl
When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me
I was born to love her
And I will never be free
You'll always be a part of me
When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me (repeat till end)
You think that you could walk out on me. You think that I'll be there when you're in need. I celebrate my days of hate 'cause now I see that you're nothing to me. So go out and get with any guy you find. Don't come crawling back when you're in need. (Chorus)
I pick you up, we stay out late. My life is good, my life is great. Nothing matters any more!
My grades have dropped I'm such a schmuck, but I don't care I don't give a ---- Nothing matters any more! Ever since I heard that ring, I put down everything. I picked the phone up off the floor, and nothing matters any more! Forget the world! So time has passed but nothing's changed, my life's still bad it's all rearranged. Nothing matters any more! My grades have dropped I'm such a schmuck, but I don't care I don't give a ..... Nothing matters any more! (Chorus)
all I need is a walking cane
to guide me on my way
a hat to push away the rain
that would be okay
starting over to begin
I'm standing here too strong
I never thought I'd ever see at all
I stand to tall, but I shrink away
I never thought I could feel as good
as the way I feel today
so I run away...
cause things aren't quite going my way
run away from yesterday
tomorrow will be free
I slipped today, but that's okay
I need a new routine
those who live and those who die
shining like the sun
all trying to peak over the wall
I stand to tall, but I shrink away
I never thought I could feel as good
as the way I feel today
so I run away...
cause things aren't quite going my way
and when I turned on mtv
I saw just what I wanted to be
but that was yesterday
why do you treat me oh so badly oh so cruel
I'm just a good boy needs a good girl someone cool
now I can't live with out you
I want to live
I need a solution
too much pollution
is in my head
think about you night and day
I've got to get away
you're always in my head
why don't you call me, you're too busy, I'm too plain
why can't you see the things you do they cause me pain
now I can't live with out you
I want to live without you
I need a solution
too much pollution
is in my head
I think about you night and day
I've got to get away
you're always in my head
I tried to end it but I know I can't be happy with you not around
you're not around
I tried to end it but I couldn¡¯t find an easy way to let you down
to let you down...
you say neglect is all I understand
I know I haven't done the best I can
if I don't change my selfish ways today
you say you'll go away to my dismay
grab your thongs we're going for a ride
singing songs in my car feeling happy
because we're going to the sand
I'll show you who I am
we'll walk along the water holding hands
by the sand
we're heading west on highway on highway number one
we'll drive until the hills block half the sun
we'll have some fun
to hurt you wasn't ever my intention
the truth is that I never lost affection
I'm sorry if I didn't pay attention
you were always on my mind
grab your thongs we're going for a ride
singing songs in my car feeling happy
because we're going to the sand
I'll show you who I am
we'll walk along the water holding hands
because we're going to the sand
where I'll make you understand
we'll walk along the water holding hands
by the sand
I know sometimes I make mistakes
I think I need to make mistakes
sometimes stupid things are said
and I'm sorry
I know sometimes I make mistakes
I know sometimes that its too late
sometimes stupid things are said
but we're going to the sand
I'll show you who I am
we'll walk along the water holding hands
because we're going to the sand
where I'll make you understand
we'll walk along the water holding hands
yeah were going to the sand
where I'll do the best I can
we'll walk along the water holding hands
I'm all alone but my heart is full
I'm a sunken stone, I'm thinking you're the pool
I'm lost in space, but I'm on the ground
you can find my heart in the lost and found
because you are not like all the rest
a girl who puts me to the test
so why must you be oh so rude
giving me that attitude
please don't take that tone with me
I understand the way you see
you think you're different just like me
I'm center stage as you rant and rave
it's the final scene of our tragic play
the curtains close and I take a bow
I play this role until my youth runs out
I'm all alone but my heart is full
I'm a sunken stone, I'm thinking you're the pool
I wan't a girl who's just like you
giving me that attitude
please don't take that tone with me
I'm not just another one you see,
How can I show you that I cannot not see?
How can I show you that my life's a lie?
Got the world round thinking that I feel Irie
Would you believe me if I told you I was dropped of a (ride?)
Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah...
I'm gonna pass (the something?) on the left hand side
Well maybe then everyone will like me?
I'm gonna jump punk rockin', (throw the horse shoe?)
(spend five calls on copy?), Well.
Chorus
The superficial life is wrong
I won't look cool if I (hit the bomb?)
Maybe I should be, different from everybody
Or maybe I should be, or maybe I should be me.
People now people now, wherever you are say Irie.
People now people now, say Irie after me, Irie.
