Everybody grew up and turned into assholes
You don't have to show up, giving me hassles
You just keep on walking
Never looking over at me
Is this what you call free?
Is this what you call free?
Won't you quit bothering me?

Say what you wanna say but it don't matter
Do what you wanna do but we don't care
You haven't anything that we would bother
You haven't anything that we would dare
That's what you get for being afraid
That's what you get for staying away
Say what you wanna say but it don't matter
Do what you wanna do but we don't care
You haven't anything that we would bother
You haven't anything that we would dare
That's what you get for being afraid
That's what you get for staying away
Go on regret do it anyway
That's what you get for being afraid

Why do you kiss goodbye every night
Giving me every reason to lie
Can I be in your way for awhile
Can I get in the back seat and hide
Take it down to the street anytime
Lock me out of the sheets for awhile
Give us a kiss with sharp little knives
You are the last thing on my mind
I'll be the first you leave behind
and everyone knows why...
So give it up give it back to me
Will you be mine while the winners sleep
So give it up give it back to me
Open wide kiss catastrophe
Circling over you and in between
Your shiver and my blue restless teen
More lovely than a reason to leave
. . .

you go on leaving all of yourself
you go on keeping everything else
so come in dreaming no one can tell
cause you always wear it well
you go on ringing every bell
you know my demons are too bold for hell
i kept you letters for nobody else
i'm keepin you all to myself
so come on bleeding
cause my lines completing
you ride in knockin the widower
right to the ground
I'll be around
you come on burning me into yourself
you go on leaving your ghost on my shelf
the lights are dark at the Nile of your well
come on lonely case me a spell
you come on seething
cause my lies we're cheating
you ride in knocked the widower
right to the shelf
I'll be around
. . .

Is there something you've been waiting for
For a long time
A stupid game where you've been keeping
score in your mind
You write the books in your head
I'll keep the last days instead
Can you calculate an even cure
And a crime
So you come around and we all slow down
So you come around and I tried to wear you out
With my newborn history
A faithless eulogy
And if I can't keep you down
no one will
I have seen the bones beneath the stare
of your eyes
Have you traded in the yellow hair
for cheap smiles
Call you another doctor
This one seems to think you're just fine
I have tasted all your sympathy
And I don't care
So you come around and we all slow down
So you come around and I tried to wear you out
With my newborn history
A faithless eulogy
And if I can't keep you down
no one will
So you come around and we all slow down
So you come around and I tried to wear you out
. . .

I will keep the bad things from you
I will keep a straight face honey
you can keep your last name if you want to
and I will give you all my money
I could take a plane right to you
if i could just stop running
what if all this was true?
I will keep the bank from calling
I will keep those bastards from you
I will keep your smile from falling
this time the casualties were few
'cause we kept the bastards brawling
we kept our hearts from view
this time we're problem solving
catch it while you can
its the feel good hit of the summer
catch it while you can
'cause there won't be another
you keep the band names coming
I'll make the jokes real funny
we'll keep the skeptics humming
and someone else will take the money
we'll keep the hamsters running
I'll be the sour in your tummy
who'll wipe the nose that's running
catch it while you can
its the feel good hit of the summer
catch it while you can
'cause there won't be another
I will sleep above the covers
I will love you like no other
I will be your dad and mother
I will give you older brothers
I will feed you fries with steak sauce
I will keep the price below the cost
I will lead the way from all is lost
I will keep the bad things from you
catch it while you can
its the feel good hit of the summer
catch it while you can
'cause there won't be another... won't be another...
I'll keep the bad things from you...
I'll keep the bad things from you...
I'll keep the bad things from you...

It's up to you now
This place is filling up with smoke
You won't let me breathe in or out
So I resolve to cut my own throat
And I will never change
Not for anyone
Sometimes I wish
I could leave myself alone
I could leave myself alone
Each day you bring me closer
to going nowhere
Like sleep walking I'm sleepsinging, yeah
Someday you're gonna wish
You'd taken better care of me
Like sleep walking I'm sleepsinging, yeah
I have been such a fool for you
I put my faith in things you could never do
Now I'm chasing myself to catch up with you
And you mixed every drink of lies
with the truth
I will never change no
Will you ever change no
. . .

on the blank lines ring the words right
sing the same things for the new fight
did you forget
I give it my best but not only take the worst
when the song rings through your new skin
will you listen
I will go back to the sound
with good luck, with good luck
if you keep the backbeat down
with good luck, with good luck
on the same lines it's about time
curse the sad site of your white trite
and it's always the same
I give it away but it just comes right back
when the song rings through your new skin
will you listen
I will go back to the sound
with good luck, with good luck
if you keep the backbeat down
with good luck, with good luck
I will go back to the sound
with good luck, with good luck
if you keep the backbeat down
with good luck, with good luck
I will go back to the sound
I will go back to the sound
I will go back to the sound
with good luck, with good luck
. . .

When you gonna stay the same
Not till I've gone away
When you gonna take the blame
Oh when your love has strayed
When you gonna taste the same
Go and perform again
When you gonna call the game
This is the lost complaint
Chorus:
I just want the focus on you
My photograph won't disappoint you
I just want the focus on you
Marie Claire's /Mademoiselle's /Seventeen's
got nothing on you
I just want the focus on you
When you gonna change your name
To one that we can say
When you gonna keep the take
That's when the crime has paid
Chorus

the clock would ring just like a bell
the green in her eyes dropped out and fell
everywhere
but I don't care
I can see
that she's made of something else entirely
has she completely gone crazy
she kissed me back and ran
she's my electric harmony
and I'm her little paper tree
she looks me up and down again
she's looking out and I'm looking in
she's my electric harmony
I've counted all the things I can see
the spots and bumps and valleys that
are keeping you in
then you begin
to become a million things
I tried to gather all of them but I couldn't sing
has she completely gone crazy
she kissed me back and ran
she's my electric harmony
and I'm her little paper tree
she looks me up and down again
she's looking out and I'm looking in
she's my electric harmony
did I catch your name?
was it something weird or something strange?
did I catch your name? did I catch your name?
was it something strange?
she's my electric harmony
and I'm her little paper tree
she looks me up and down again
she's looking out and I'm looking in
she's my electric harmony

what's the deal with you and Lucinda
she said that you broke her hymen
while playing kick ball
I just think that you really weren't trying
I've seen you slay bigger dragons
in the Moorestown mall
give me a call
we're having a ball
run and slide on your belly
folks are in New Delhi
we're making prank calls
is that all you really remember
there was something behind your eyes
when you punched Sam Roy
please excuse our son he doesn't feel right
he just doesn't seem to enjoy all the things
that a little boy should
give me a call
we're having a ball
go and turn on the TV
naked women on 63
I wish I was tall
Gloria just confused with Walter
she would never hold hands with a boy like you
'cause you're made of slime
don't tell me that my boy has big problems
don't you worry about my son
he'll be just fine
give me a call
we're having a ball
run and slide on your belly
folks are in New Delhi
we're making prank calls
give me a call
we're having a ball
go and turn on the TV
naked women on 63
I wish I was tall
don't you wish you were tall
we're having a ball x 7

take a bite right out of me
and burn the rest in effigy
hang me from the family tree
and what you try to steal
will one day set me free
is this what you've come to see
all this blood I've got to bleed
southern fruit cut from the tree
and burning through the heart
with no apology
I'm coming back for you
yeah yeah
I sing the Devil's blues
yeah yeah
I'm burning like a star
searching for a fool
so give me what you lose
yeah yeah
I will keep this little seed
it won't be beat by no police
I will swallow it for me
so cut me from the poplar tree
I have been received
I'm coming back for you
yeah yeah
I sing the Devil's blues
yeah yeah
I'm burning like a star
searching for a fool
so give me what you lose
yeah yeah
I'm coming back for you
yeah yeah
I'm coming back for you
yeah yeah
I'm coming back for you
yeah
I'm coming back for you
yeah yeah yeah
coming back for you
yeah yeah
