UNCOMPLICATED
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
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
ROCK STAR
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
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
Yeah you know I'm the one
ANGRY
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
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
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.
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
Angry, so angry, angry at you
HAPPY TOO
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
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
FIGURE IT OUT
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'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.
KERGUELEN
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
WASTED
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
AIRSICK
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
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?
LIPSTICK AND ASPIRIN
Sitting on the floor
My head between my legs
Telling myself
That I'm so fuckin' brave
Laughing out loud
I keep moving away
It's like the water doesn't touch my skin
And I don't wanna be too much like them
And when I look for her she's hangin'
Out in the bathroom with lipstick and aspirin
In another day
At a slower pace
Feeling out your space
When you don't know how
Suckin' on your thumb
You're such an awful flirt
Just a slip of the tongue
Playing games with words
I press my feet
Into the dirt
And I just couldn't keep it to myself
I pulled the dictionary off the shelf
And while I talk too loud she's hangin'
Out in the bathroom
With lipstick and aspirin
Sometimes you don't know who you are
And you doubt
You doubt
You doubt
You doubt
SEX IN THE WHITE HOUSE
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
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
Mother Country
Uncle Sam
Do you even know who I am
It's just sex
