Theory Of A Deadman Album

(humming)

[Verse]
Put the bottle down, finally got somethin' to say
Take another look around and find someone else to play
(Needless to say) That you've got problems
(There's no fuckin' way) that I'm gonna solve them
(It's never the same) Every time you slip, then you fall down, down, down

[Pre-Chorus]
Ever wonder what i been thinkin' about?
I been thinkin' about throwin' you out

[Chorus]
I'm so happy about you (I found out, so get up and get out)
I'm so happy now we're through (I found out, so get up and get out)
I was so afraid, now you're gone away
Since you pack and look who's laughin' now
I'm so happy that I feel this way
I'm so happy that I threw you away

[Verse]
Put your problems down and pick up what's left of the pain
Take a good look at yourself and see who's really to blame
(Needless to say) You got issues
(There's no fuckin' way) That I'm gonna fix you
(It's never the same) Ever since you went fallin' down, down, down

[Pre-Chorus]
Ever wonder what i been thinkin' about?
I been thinkin' about throwin' you out

[Chorus]
I'm so happy about you (I found out, so get up and get out)
I'm so happy now we're through (I found out, so get up and get out)
I was so afraid, now you're gone away
Since you pack and look who's laughin' now
I'm so happy that I feel this way
I'm so happy that I threw you away

[Bridge]
(Beginning hum, then Guitar Solo)

[Chorus]
I'm so happy about you (I found out, so get up and get out)
I'm so happy now we're through (I found out, so get up and get out)
I was so afraid, now you're gone away
Since you pack and look who's laughin' now
I'm so happy that I feel this way
I'm so happy that I threw you away

(more humming at end of song)

A note by the door
Simply explains
It's all that remains
It's no wonder why I have not slept in days

The dust on the floor, piled up from the years
All those scars and souvenirs
Now that you're gone, it's easy to see
But so hard to believe

By the way
You left without saying goodbye to me
Now that you're gone away
All I can think about is you and me
You and me

It's not like before
You've left nothing here, it's all disappeared
It hurts me to see that we've been a lie
Would it have hurt you to try

By the way
You left without saying goodbye to me
Now that you're gone away
All I can think about is you and me
You and me

It's sad to say that this pain is killing me inside
But it's sad to say that this pain is keeping me alive
Twisting and turning and ripped through my heart
It's been tearing me apart

By the way
You left without saying goodbye to me
Now that you're gone away
All I can think about is you and me
You and me

All I think about now is you and me
You and me

All I think about now is you and me
You and me
You and me

By the way
By the way
By the way

No time for a suitcase
Just grab a quick change of clothes
You ask where we’re going now honey
Well I’d tell you but nobody knows

So sneak out the back door
Cause you know they’ll try to make you stay
Make sure you got a seat belt on
Cause were headed for the interstate

Were having the best time, living the fast life
Thinking were just too damn young to die
Can’t wait for next time to see all the bright lights
To see it all
Driving the fast lane out on the freeway
Tell us to slow down, start the car chase
As long as we got each other we’ve got it made
We’ve got it, we’ve got it, we’ve got it made

Pulled over on the side to the road
Going skinny dippin in the dark
Musta left the radio on
We had to push the car to get it to start

Cruising down on sunset
Then went racin up Mohulland drive
Then we stopped on the top of the world
Oh I never felt so alive

Were having the best time, living the fast life
Thinking were just too damn young to die
Can’t wait for next time to see all the bright lights
To see it all
Driving the fast lane out on the freeway
Tell us to slow down, start the car chase
As long as we got each other we’ve got it made
We’ve got it, we’ve got it, we’ve got it made

Now were running on empty
We got nowhere to go
We’ve been sleeping in the backseat
Just waiting for the sun to show

Blowing cash, explode
Thinking I'm heading home
I can tell by the smile on your face
We still got miles to go

Were having the best time, living the fast life
Thinking were just too damn young to die
Can’t wait for next time to see all the bright lights
To see it all
Driving the fast lane out on the freeway
Tell us to slow down, start the car chase
As long as we got each other we’ve got it made
We’ve got it, we’ve got it, we’ve got it made
We’ve got it, we’ve got it, we’ve got it made
We’ve got it, we’ve got it, we’ve got it made

It's never enough to say I'm sorry
It's never enough to say I care
But I'm caught between what you
Wanted from me, and knowing
If I give that to you
I might just disappear

Nobody wins when everyone's losing

Oh, it's like

One step forward and two steps back
No matter what I do you're always mad
And I can't change your mind

Oh, it's like

Trying to turn around on a one way street
I can't give you what you want
And it's killing me and I, I'm starting to see
Maybe we're not meant to be

It's never enough to say I love you
No it's never enough to say I try
It's hard to believe that there's
No way out for you and me
And it seems to be
The story of our life

Nobody wins when everyone's losing

It's like one step forward and two steps back
No matter what I do you're always mad
And I can't change your mind, oh
It's like trying to turn around on a ne way street
I can't give you what you want and it's killing me
And I, I'm starting to see
That maybe we're not meant to be

There's still time to turn this around
Should we be building this up
Instead of tearing it down
But I keep thinking
Maybe it's too late

It's like one step forward
And two steps back
No matter what I do
You're always mad and I
Can't change your mind, oh
It's like tryin to turn around
On a one way street
I can't give you what you want
And it's killing me and I
I finally see
Baby we're not meant to be

Please can I go home now, I can barely stay awake
But you sit there with your pride and kill us all
You have so much fun now trying to bend me till I break
And I just set myself up to take the fall
Your eyes are black as tar and to look at you is hard
But I'm just too afraid to look away
Misery loves company and here you stand in front of me
Just please don't ask me to stay

So, who do you trust
Now that you need me to get through the day
I'm asking too much
To have you hear what I have to say
So I say

Help me help you, I'm down on my knees
If you need me so much then why did you leave
You needed a reason, you needed too much
You can lean on me, but don't lean
On me like I'm your crutch

You never started loving me so you could never quit
I could rule this fuckin world and you'd still think I'm shit
You've turned your back on me, have no family
In the end the devil gets what he deserves

So, who do you trust now that you
Need me to get through the day
I'm asking too much
To have you hear what I have to say

So I say

Help me help you, I'm down on my knees
If you need me so much then why did you leave
You needed a reason, you needed too much
You can lean on me, but don't lean
On me like I'm your crutch

Please help me, please help me
Please help me, please help me

So, who do you trust now that you
Need me to get through the day
I'm asking too much
To have you hear what I have to say

So I say

Help me help you, I'm down on my knees
If you need me so much then why did you leave
You needed a reason, you needed too much
You can lean on me, but don't lean
On me like I'm your crutch

Don't lean on me like I'm your crutch

When I first saw you standing there
You know, was a little hard not to stare
So nervous when I drove you home
I know, being apart's a little hard to bare

Send some flowers to your work in hopes that I'd have you in my arms again
We kissed that night before I left
Still now, was something I can never forget
You've got all that I need

Looking at all or nothing
Babe, it's you and I
With you, I know that I'm good for something
So, let's go and give it a try

We've got our backs against the ocean
It's just us against the world
Looking at all or nothing
Babe, it's you and I
Looking at all or nothing
Babe, it's you and I

Let's take a chance
Go far away today
And never look back again
Since I said I loved you in Las Vegas
It's never been the same since then
You've got all that I need

Looking at all or nothing
Babe, it's you and I
With you, I know that I'm good for something
So, let's go and give it a try

We've got our backs against the ocean
It's just us against the world
Looking at all or nothing
Babe, it's you and I
Looking at all or nothing
Babe, it's you and I

This is it
Nothing to hide
One more kiss
Never say goodbye
This is it
Babe, you're all mine

Looking at all or nothing
Babe, it's you and I
I know that I'm good for something
So let's go and give it a try
Got our backs against the ocean
It's just us against the world

Looking at all or nothing
Babe, it's you and I
With you I know that I'm good for something
So, let's go and give it a try
We've got our backs against the ocean
It's just us against the world

Looking at all or nothing
Babe, it's you and I
Looking at all or nothing
Babe, it's you and I
It's you and I

My girlfriend's a dick magnet
My girlfriend's gotta have it
She's hot, cant stop, up on stage doing shots
Tip the man he'll right the bell, get her drunk she'll scream like hell
Dirty girl, gettin down, dance with guys from outta town
Grab her ass, actin tough,
Mess with her, she'll fuck you up
No one really knows if she's drunk or if she's stoned
But she's comin back to my place tonight

She likes to shake her ass
She grinds it to the beat
She likes to pull my hair when I make her grind her teeth
I like to strip her down
She's naughty to the end
You know what she is, no doubt about it
She's a bad bad girlfriend

Red thong, party's on, love this song, sing along
Come together, leave alone, see you later back at home
No one really knows if she's drunk or is she's stoned
But she's coming back to my place tonight

I say
No one really knows just how far shes going to go
But I'm gonna find out later tonight

She likes to shake her ass
She grinds it to the beat
She likes to pull my hair when I make her grind her teeth
I like to strip her down
She's naughty to the end
You know what she is, no doubt about it
She's a bad bad girlfriend

Doesn't take her long to make things right
But does it make her wrong to have the time of her life
The time of her life
(My girlfriends a dick magnet)
(My girlfriends gotta have it)

She's a gold digger
Now you figure out its over, pull the trigger
Futures finished, there it went, savings gone
The money spent

I look around and all I see is no good, bad and ugly
Man she's hot fixed to be, the future ex-Miss Connolly

She likes to shake her ass
She grinds it to the beat
She likes to pull my hair when I make her grind her teeth
I like to strip her down
She's naughty to the end
You know what she is, no doubt about it
She's a bad bad girlfriend
She's a bad bad girlfriend
She's a bad bad girlfriend

So sick of the hobos always begging for change
I don't like how I gotta work and
They just sit around and get paid
I hate all of the people who can't drive their cars
Bitch you better get outta the way
Before I start falling apart

I hate how my wife is always up my ass
She always wants to buy brand new things
But I don't have the cash

I hate my job, all of my rich friends
I hate everyone to the bitter end
Nothing turns out right
There's no end in sight
I hate my life

How come I never get laid
Nice guys always lose
How could she have another headache
There's always some kind of excuse

I still hate my job
My boss is a dick
I don't get paid nearly enough
To put up with all of your shit

I hate my job, all of my rich friends
I hate everyone to the bitter end
Nothing turns out right There's no end in sight
I hate my life

I hate that I can't tell when a girl's underage
You know, I tell her she's a nice piece of ass
Then her daddy punches me in the face

So if you're pissed like me
Bitches, here's what you gotta do
Put your middle fingers up in the air
Go on and say "Fuck you!"

I hate my job, all of my rich friends
I hate everyone to the bitter end
Nothing turns out right There's no end in sight
I hate my life

So much at stake, can't catch a break
I hate my life
No, it's nothing new hear " it sucks to be you"
I fuckin hate my life

If heaven is a place where the angels go
Well then I've got a story to tell
If heaven is a place where the angels go
Then I guess you're going straight to hell

Don't wanna leave you now or never
Cause we're perfect together
Never wanna be apart
Dead to take on the simple life

There was trouble for us when I came home early
Never would expect to see this
It's fit to say I could not believe my eyes
You cracked a smile but had nothing to say
So I made a list of how you're going to pay

I locked you out
Left you naked in the front yard
Burned all of your clothes
Having nothing can't be really hard
Now I'm on the run
I'd do it all again
So catch me if you can
Cause, I took your car
With your baby in the back seat
Cracked your credit card
Doing ten to deadbeat
Baby now you know how much it hurts
When I caught you in the act wearing nothing but a little smirk

Now I feel better
But its hard to forget
I never think about looking back
Cause time has no meaning when your free
This is what you get
Come on bitch
Now I see who you really are
Cause happiness is the best we've had

But caught red daddy with a grin on your face
Didn't think you'd be easy to replace

I locked you out
Left you naked in the front yard
Burned all of your clothes
Having nothing can't be really hard
Now I'm on the run
I'd do it all again
So catch me if you can
Cause, I took your car
With your baby in the back seat
Cracked your credit card
Doing ten to deadbeat
Baby now you know how much it hurts
When I caught you in the act wearing nothing but a little smirk

Again and again and again and again and e-yeah

If heaven is a place where the angels go
Well then I've got a story to tell
If heaven is a place where the angels go
Then I know I'm going straight to hell

I locked you out
Left you naked in the front yard
Burned all of your clothes
Having nothing can't be really hard
Now I'm on the run
I'd do it all again
So catch me if you can
Cause, I took your car
With your baby in the back seat
Cracked your credit card
Doing ten to deadbeat
Baby now you know how much it hurts
When I caught you in the act wearing nothing but a little smirk
Wearing nothing but a little smirk

Here we are, at the end
Say goodbye to all of your friends
Here we go watching the sun go around
Sitting on a rooftop, making time stop
I never wanna come back down
I never wanna come down

It's the end of the summer, it's the end of it all
Those days are gone, it's over now, we're moving on
It's the end of the summer, but we'll see it all again
So hold onto this moment till then
It's the end of the summer

Here we stand, in the middle of an empty street
Tell me where you wanna go
I'll tell you "that's where I wanna be"

Say goodbye to the warm breeze
We could be almost anywhere
I'll miss you, 'till the next time
I hope I see you there
I hope I see you back here

It's the end of the summer, it's the end of it all
Those days are gone, it's over now, we're moving on
It's the end of the summer, but we'll see it all again
So hold onto this moment till then
It's the end of the summer
End of the summer

Ride's almost over, it's getting colder
Take one last look before it passes by
Before it passes you by

It's the end of the summer It's the end of it all
Those days are gone, it's over now, we're movin on
It's the end of the summer
But we'll see it all again
So hold onto this moment till then

It's the end of the summer, it's the end of it all
Those days are gone, it's over now, we're movin on
It's the end of the summer
But we'll see it all again
So hold onto this moment till then
It's the end of the summer
It's the end of the summer

You are not alone tonight
Imagine me there by your side
It's so hard to be here so far away from you
I'm counting the days till
I'm finally done
I'm counting them down, yeah, one by one
It feels like forever till I return to you
But it helps me on those lonely nights
It's that one thing that keeps me alive

Knowing that you wait for me
Ever so patiently

No one else knows the feeling inside
We hang up the phone without saying goodnight
Because it's the sound of your voice that brings me home
It's never been easy to say
But it's easier when I've gone away

Knowing that you wait for me
Ever so patiently
Yeah, you're everything I've ever dreamed of having and
It's everything I need from you just knowing that you wait for me

What I'd give
What I'd do
Knowing I'm not there for you
Makes it so hard to leave
What I'd give
What I'd do
Anything to get me home to you
And this time I'll stay

And you wait for me
Ever so patiently
Yeah, you're everything I've ever dreamed of having and
It's everything I need from you just knowing that you wait for me

No I don't need a reason to be breathin
Just here doin what I can
No I don't want a family who would damn me
and resent everything I am
I don't need to prove to all the ones who
Feel that I need to fit in
No I won't ever tell you that i failed you
I'd rather start life over again

No I'm sorry to say
There'll be no sacrifice today

No I can see it clearly
Why you feel me
Why you got to bring me down
No I don't want to fight you
Just to spite you
But I'm not afraid to take you out

No I'm sorry to say
There'll be no sacrifice today

Everybody expects me to break
but i'll never break down again
Everybody expects me to give up
but you'll never see me givin in
Everybody wants me to lose
but i'll never lose who I am

No I'm sorry to say
There'll be no sacrifice today
