Beauty Contest


Damsel in distress
Is quite submissive
Look how sunburned
My vanity is

Feminine human creature
Superficial seducing detour

I'm going to the mall for the cookie cutter
The ugly duckling will always suffer

Contaminated standards
Don't try to fight it
I'd better get back on my diet

Obsessed with the beauty contest
Beauty contest
How'd my vanity get such a mess?
Beauty contest
I'm obsessed

Reduce myself
I got the strict restrictions
Not sexy enough
Without the regulations

Multipoint countdown my fading features
Born to blossom and room to parish

Obsessed with the beauty contest
Beauty contest
Oh, I've got to get out of this mess
Beauty contest
I'm obsessed

And I've fallen
I can't help myself
I'm feeling envious of all the rest
You're bringing out the lemming in me
A victim of a cattle call disease
Not easy to be me

I feel swollen

Obsessed with the beauty contest
Beauty contest
How'd my vanity get such a mess?
Obsessed with the beauty contest
Obsessed with the beauty contest
Beauty contest

I've got to get out of this mess
Obsessed with the beauty contest
Obsessed with the beauty contest
Beauty contest
How'd my vanity get such a mess

Caught up in the beauty contest
Caught up in the beauty contest
Caught up in the beauty contest
Caught up in the beauty contest
Caught up in the beauty contest

And I feel swollen

How'd my vanity get such a mess?

(Madeline) My vanity's a mess

Big Distraction


you're my concentration
everything else is a bore
i've got myself snagged on you
no self control
now all that i wanna do
sleep in the shadow of you
for the rest of my life
now i can chisel
chisel and build a bomb
a pain deposited
from past scars
cause the memories they can sleep
and we can live comfortably
for the rest of my life
wrong or right


shipwrecked into you
situation is foolish
but i will fight
you're my big distraction
I'll be his companion
i'm falling fast
like an avalanche

indentured servant
a slave to a slave
thank god for my hopeful heart
and for mutual feelings
well look how it's balanced now
maybe we'll just settle down
for the rest of our lives
wrong or right
shipwrecked into you
situation is foolish
but i will fight
you're my big distraction
I'll be his companion
i'm falling fast
like an avalanche

look how it's balanced now
maybe we'll just settle down
for the rest of our lives
lives
wrong or right
shipwrecked into you
situation is foolish
but i will fight
you're my big distraction
I'll be his companion
i'm falling fast
like an avalanche
oh my big distraction
I'll be his companion
i'm falling fast
like an avalanche
you're my big distraction
I'll be his companion
i'm falling fast
like an avalanche

Cellophane Boy


And I'm not the judge or the referee
And I can't accept 'cause I am uptight
And the smokescreen to my eyes are burning
My concern is I just might give you a life
And I can't relate to the hypnotist
And I can't get close 'cause of plastic wrap
And I want to have kids
But their father's up inside the clouds
The distance bewteen us on my mind

Up until now things have been fine temporarily
You're cute but the circumstance has changed
Your substitution method crutch
Your whole protection from your pain
This presentation of my ploy
Is to change my cellophane boy

Now it's not the seventies
Let your future fly with me
Up until now things have been fine temporarily
You're cute but the circumstance has changed
Your substitution method crutch
Your whole protection from your pain
This presentation of my ploy
Is to change my cellophane boy
And I want your habit to be me
Your harbor and your refugee

(G. Stefani, T. Kanal)

Dear John


My friend you're gone
Someday I hope we meet again

I look unto the left and then I look unto the right
I see your faded figure almost every single night
Is my imagination playing tricks on me
But in my heart you see, you will always be...

My friend, you're gone
Someday I hope we meet again

You're singin' in a band with a mic on in your hand
That way that you would sing really made me feel all grand
You left your friends alone right upon this earth
I wish that would've seen how much life was worth

My friend, yeahhh, you're gone
Someday, someday, someday, now I hope we meet again

Yeahhh I hope we meet again now hey yeahh yeaah yeahh yeahhh yeahhhohhh

Well, Johnny made us laugh but now he made us cry
It couldn't have been that bad to make him want to die
Now it's too late to find your destiny
I wish you would've waited longer here with me

My friend yeaahh you're gone
Someday I hope we meet again
My friend you're gone
Someday someday someday now I hope we meet again
I hope we meet again
John my friend hey yeah
I hope please yeah I know we'll meet again yeahhhh
I'm missing you my friend I hope we meet again
I'm missing you my friend I hope we meet again
Well I'm missing you my friend well, I hope we meet again
I'm missing you yeah hey I hope we meet again

It's the End of the World as We Know It



That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and
snakes, an aeroplane and Lenny Bruce is not afraid.
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn - world
serves its own needs, dummy serve your own needs. Feed
it off an aux speak, grunt, no, strength, Ladder
start to clatter with fear fight down height. Wire
in a fire, representing seven games, a government
for hire and a combat site. Left of west and coming in
a hurry with the furies breathing down your neck. Team
by team reporters baffled, trumped, tethered cropped.
Look at that low playing! Fine, then. Uh oh,
overflow, population, common food, but it'll do. Save
yourself, serve yourself. World serves its own needs,
listen to your heart bleed dummy with the rapture and
the revered and the right, right. You vitriolic,
patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty
psyched.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.


Six o'clock - TV hour. Don't get caught in foreign
towers. Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself
churn. Locking in, uniforming, book burning, blood
letting. Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate.
Light a candle, light a votive. Step down, step down.
Watch your heel crush, crushed, uh-oh, this means no
fear cavalier. Renegade steer clear! A tournament,
tournament, a tournament of lies. Offer me solutions,
offer me alternatives and I decline.


It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.


The other night I dreamt of knives, continental
drift divide. Mountains sit in a line, Leonard
Bernstein. Leonid Brezhnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester
Bangs. Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom! You
symbiotic, patriotic, slam book neck, right? Right.


It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel
fine...fine...


(It's time I had some time alone)

Everything's Wrong


The bed is made, so is the cake
The frogs are swimming down in the lake
The chairs are stacked and the house is locked
The food is eaten and the boat is docked
The flowers are watered and the glass is filled
The chain is linked, the money's billed
The walls are painted and the bell has rang
What is wrong?... Everything!


1, 2, 3, 4
Everything everything everything's wrong
Ever quit your bitchin and you want to go on
But if you look at me you laugh and you say
'Why just give me another thing, don't tell me this way'
Everything's wrong
Everything's wrong


Your hat is sewn, the clock is set
The toilet's flushed and the sponge is wet
The lights are on and your shoes are tied
My posters are up and my hair is dyed
The house is built and the records scratched
Your dishes are dirty and your pants are patched
The broom is shiny and the juice tastes like Tang
What is wrong?... Everything!


1, 2, 3, 4
Everything everything everything's wrong
Ever quit your bitchin and you want to go on
But if you look at me you laugh and you say
'Why just give me another thing, don't tell me this way'
Everything's wrong
Everything's wrong


That's all I say, I say no more
So please don't ask for an encore!

Full Circle


All I've ever touched or said to them
Becomes a rehearsal for you, just practicing,
Too many magic moments to be coincidence
It all comes full circle
I knew someone who knew you
And he introduced me to you
Your ex-girlfriend had a boyfriend
Who kissed my girlfriend
Who dated Adrian

The world keeps on getting smaller and smaller
And everything comes back full circle, full circle
Six degrees of seperation
We all know someone else
It all comes full circle

And you come from England
My ex-boyfriend, he is Indian
British passport, we're all connected
And everyone else is affected

The world keeps on getting smaller and smaller
And everything comes back full circle, full circle
Six degrees of seperation
We all know someone else
It all comes full circle
It all comes full circle

The world keeps on getting smaller and smaller
And everything comes back full circle, full circle
Six degrees of seperation
We all know someone else
It all comes full circle

The world keeps on getting smaller and smaller
And everything comes back full circle, full circle
Six degrees of seperation
We all know someone else
It all comes full circle

I Throw My Toys Around



I've got no time for fairy stories
I'm not a little girl
So you can leave me all alone
And turn off the lights as well

If you are frightened
Then listen
But I don't think you'd like it
Such a nice kid


Nobody's lookin' now
I'll throw my toys around


Somebody's being very bad
I wonder who it can be
Somebody's gonna get in trouble
I know it isn't me


I'm just a little angel
But you don't know what I've done
When your back's turned


Nobody's lookin' now
(nobody's lookin')
I'll throw my toys around


(with Elvis:)
Pick up those building blocks
Chop off the baby's locks
Swing dolly by the hair
Put down that teddy bear
Slam dunk a happy clown
I throw my toys around


I've got no time for bedtime stories
I'm not a little child
Everything makes me furious
And everything makes me wild


If you are frightened then whistle
And I'll come runnin' you
As you boo hoo


Nobody's lookin' now
(nobody's lookin')
I'll throw my toys around


Nobody's lookin' now
(nobody's lookin')
I'll throw my toys around


(Elvis -) I throw my toys around
(Gwen -) I'll throw my toys around
(Elvis -) I throw my toys around
(Gwen -) I'll throw my toys around
(Elvis -) I throw my toys around
(Gwen -) I'll throw my toys around
(Elvis -) I throw my toys around
(Gwen -) I'll throw my toys around
(Elvis -) I throw my toys around
(Gwen -) I'll throw my toys around

Leftovers


Thinking what should I do
Now I don't have you
Facing my demotion
Just a fish in your ocean
Has been that's what I am
With my backstage wristband
Freaking seconds of you
That's not what I'm used to feed
Feed 'em all to me
Careful with my stuff
What's your policy
First one's free

I save 'em up, I put 'em in my pocket
I save 'em up, put 'em in a jar
I save 'em up, man, I need 'em for later
I save 'em up, then they'll go real far

Many names to take down
I take the leftovers
Cold ones and the old ones
Better than no ones
Feed, feed 'em all to me
Careful with my stuff
What's your policy
First one's free

I save 'em up, I put 'em in my pocket
I save 'em up, put 'em in a jar
I save 'em up, I need 'em for later
I save 'em up, then they'll go real far

I time it out, gotta be real careful
I time it out, get 'em right on time
I time it out, I get 'em when I need 'em
Time is up what's left is over

It's over
I can never have enough
We can never have enough
I sure am greedy
Hand 'em over to me

Nothing's free

I save 'em up, I put 'em in my pocket
I save 'em up, put 'em in a jar
I save 'em up, gonna need 'em for later
I save 'em up, then I go real far

I time it out, I'll be real careful
I time it out, get 'em right on time
I time it out, I get 'em when I need 'em
Time is up what's left is over

Need 'em, man, I need 'em
Because I need 'em
Time is up what's left is over
Time it out, time it out
Because I need 'em, man, I need 'em
What should I do, when I don't have yo

No Doubt


There's no doubt in my mind
That you're like the other kind
You try but you can't
Appear to be different

No Doubt!!
No Doubt!!
Yeah..(heh heh heh heh)
No Doubt!!
No Doubt!!


Heh heh heh heh heh heh, Pick it up, say


Without a doubt yeah... Without a doubt


The start of the night
Brings about a different light
With the onslaught of your friends
The new light is shown again


No Doubt!!
No Doubt!!
Yeah.. No Doubt!!
No Doubt!!
No Doubt!!
No Doubt!!

Oi to the World



Haji was punk just like any other boy
And he never had no trouble
until he started up his Oi,
safe in the garage or singing in the tub.
Till Haji went to far and he plugged in at the pub
Twas a cold Christmas eve when Trevor and the skins
Popped in for a pint and to nick a back of Crisps
Trevor liked the music but not the unity
So he unwound Haji's turban and knocked him to his knees


If God came down on Christmas day
I know exactly what he'd say
He'd say "Oi to punks and Oi to the skins
But Oi to the world and everybody wins!"


Haji was a bloody mess, he ran out thru the crowd
He said "we'll meet again we are bloody but not unbowed"
Trevor called his bluff and told him where to meet
Christmas day on the roof down at 20 Oxford Street


If God came down on Christmas day
I know exactly what he'd say
He'd say "Oi to punks and Oi to the skins
But Oi to the world and everybody wins!"


On the roof with the nun chucks Trevor broke a lot of bones
But Haji had a sword like that guy in Indiana Jones
Police sirens wailing, a bloody dying man
Haji was alone and abandoned his band
Trevor was there fading and so full of hate
When the skins left him there and went down the fire escape (Oi! Oi!)
But then Haji saw the north star shining more than ever
So he made a tourniquet from his turban saving Trevor
They repelled down the roof with the rest of the turban
and went back to the pub where they bought each other bourbon


If God came down on Christmas day
I know exactly what he'd say
He'd say "Oi to punks and Oi to the skins
But Oi to the world and everybody wins!"


If God came down on Christmas day
I know exactly what he'd say
He'd say "Oi to punks and Oi to the skins
But Oi to the world and everybody wins!"

Sailin On



You don't want me anymore
So I'll just walk right out the door
Played a game right from the start
I trust you, you used me
And now my hearts all torn apart


So I'm sailin', well I'm sailin' on
Well I'm movin', hey I'm movin' on
Sail on,sail on


Try to see if I'll give up
But there wasn't any luck
It's a fact, fact of life
That's the games, games of strife
Everything is all in stride


So I'm sailin', well I'm sailin' on
Well I'm movin', hey I'm movin' on
Sail on,sail on


There's too many years, with too many tears
And too many days with nothing to say
And how will we know
When there's nowhere to grow
And what's the facts for life to show

(D. Jennifer, G. Miller)

Showin Off


I drive in my dad's new car
This time I've gone too far
I did not know the price I'd pay
I smashed up his last years pay

I'm rappin' with my so-called friends
Awaitin' for my commands
The lies are told, they seem to know
So telling me would be wrongly so

Chorus:
A different time, a different place, a different look, a different face
(I'm showin' off)
(I'm showin' off)

It's all over the deed is done
And that's the price of my own fun
Took it for granted the way I thought
And now my confidence just can't be bought

Chorus:
A different time, a different place, a different look, a different face
(I'm showin' off)
(I'm showin' off)

That's the way it looks when you show off
That's the way it looks when you show off
That's the way it looks when you show off
That's the way it looks when you show off
That's the way it looks when you show off

So Far, So Pleased


so far so pleased
i like the way u touch me i like the way u tease
no car no keys
i had 2 get us stranded if u know what i mean
big scar on my knee
beggin' 4 a kiss is such a dull routine
still i'm so far so pleased
so far so fine
i find another beauty mark with every glass of red wine
so fast the time
everytime i have 2 go i go and lose my mind
it's hard okay
that's what happens when a boy and girl don't get 2 play
still i'm so far so pleased
so far so pleased
i like the way u touch me i like the way u tease
no car no keys
i could spend the night and leave at 10:15
so far so pleased

South Side


See myself in the pouring home
See the light come over now
See myself in the pouring rain
I watch hope come over me
Here we are now, going to the east side
I pick up my friends and we start to ride
Ride all night, we ride all day
Some may come and some may stay

Here we are in the pouring home
I watch the light man fall the comb
I watch a light move across the screen
I watch the light come over me

Here we are now going to the west side
Weapons in hand as we go for a ride
Some may come and some may stay
Watching out for a sunny day
Where there's love and darkness and my sidearm

Hey, élan here we are now going to the north side
I look at my friends as they start to ride
Ride at night we ride all day
Looking out for a sunny day

Here we are now going to the south side
I pick up my friends and we hope we won't die
Ride at night, ride through heaven and hell
Come back and feel so well

Under Construction



His accent serenades me and presses at the door
Broken promise to be around for my mind war
And my accomplishment's interrogating me
Today's become tomorrow before I wanted it to be
And desperate discussions
The start of the destruction
Our sign, in my mind
I'll be fine
I'll be fine


'Cause I'm under construction everyone
So you'll have to mind the mess
I'm under some construction


I always had to try harder
I never really could keep up
Sitting in the corner
With my illness and bad luck
But in this humble place I'm feeling like red wine
And I hope to get better with some time
I'll be fine
With some time
I'll be fine


'Cause I'm under construction everyone
So you'll have to mind the mess
I'm under some construction


Construction
Modification
Motivation
Of construction


And the rituals that soothe and disgust me will be gone
With some time
I'll be fine
With some time
I'll be fine
I'll be fine


I'm under construction everyone
So you'll have to mind the mess
I'm under some construction
I'm under construction everyone
So you'll have to mind the mess
I'm under some construction
Under construction
Construction
Feel better with some construction

Up Yours



Mmmm I'll put up with you in the morning
And I'll put up with you in the night
I'll put up with you anytime
Oh being with you's such a delight


I'll put up with you and your boyfriends
And I'll put up with you and your family
I'll put up with you and the in laws
If they can put up with me


I'll put up with your complaining
And I'll put up with your needs
I'll put up with you messin' around
You can go but once more with me


I'll put up with you and your smoking
And I'll put up with you and your dirty deeds
I'll put up with you and your cussin'
You don't know how happy you would make me


I want you sugar yeah hey woo hoo hoo hoo
And baby I got to - I know I have to
I put my love around you honey
I want you need you so bad
Oh you put up with me
Ooh I'll put up
I'll put up, I'll put up, I'll put up


I'll put up with your last name
And I'll put up with you and not kiss my lips
I'll put up with you not missin' me
Though down deep inside I wish you would change
Though down deep inside I wish you would change
Though down deep inside I wish you would change
Though down deep inside I wish you would change

Where's Your Lovin?


Yeah..ohhh
Where is your lovin'?
Where's your lovin'?


'm in it for somethin' I think it's your lovin'
Your huggin' your kissin' your sweet tender lovin'
The thought of you comin' makes me come a runnin'

If you give me some back then I would be shinin'
(Alright!! Hep Hep Alright!!)


I'm in it for somethin' I think it's your lovin'

I love you sooooooohh


I'm in it for somethin' I think it's your lovin'
Your huggin' your kissin' your sweet tender lovin'
The thought of you comin' makes me come a runnin'
I ran all the way just a pushin' and shovin'
Where's your lovin?
Where's your lovin?


(Alright!! Hep Hep Alright!! uh-huh! Alright!! Hep Hep)


(Yeahohhh)
Where is your lovin'?
Where's your lovin'?
(Whooo!)

You Can't Teach an Old Dog New Tricks




At the park you try to teach a dog a brand new trick
You take a ball and toss it far and then you say "go get it"
You know you can't teach an ol' dog new tricks
He only knows what he may
No you can't teach an ol' dog new tricks
He'll only curl his tail and run away


And so you try a new approach, you try to hold and cuddle it
You hope he'll learn it if you try again but he just don't get it
You can't teach an ol' dog new tricks
He only knows what he may
No you can't teach an ol' dog new tricks
He'll only curl his tail and run away
You can't teach an ol' dog new tricks
He only knows what he's trained
No you can't teach an ol' dog new tricks
Not even if you get down and beg
No you can't teach an ol' dog


Remember when you saw him in the window
(You bought him from the local pet store)
You can't forget the first time you brought him home
(You brought him home, he went on the floor)
You could have taught him then if you would have known
(Party No Doubt!)


You can't teach an ol' dog new tricks
He only knows what he may
No you can't teach an ol' dog new tricks
He'll only curl his tail and run away
You can't teach an ol' dog new tricks
He only knows what he's trained
No you can't teach an ol' dog new tricks
Not even if you get down and beg
No you can't teach an ol' dog
No no way
You can't teach an ol' dog new tricks
He'll only curl his tail and run away
