Veruca Salt Album

I am not the same as before
And I don't feel that way anymore
Anymore, anymore
No I am not the same person

This couldn't get any better
She didn't get it so fuck her
I'll never be any saner
I'm a born entertainer

Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah

You couldn't be any cuter, any cuter
You couldn't be any cooler, any cooler
You'll never be any saner, any saner
'Cause you're a born entertainer

Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I dared you to catch me
I beg you to miss me

You couldn't get any radder
You couldn't be any better
You couldn't be any lamer
You're a born entertainer

We're the born entertainers
The born entertainers

She's crazy and shit
She shows off her tits
She's just a corn-fed white-bred chick
Born in her own zip code
She comes with a cool car
She'll never have to pay for it

What will she do without you
What will she do without you
What will she do?

He's not afraid of the future
He's hot off the platter
He's been handed a blank check
Phi Beta date rape ya
He's sprung an agenda
He's got a place to put it

What will he do without you
What will he do without you
What will he do without you
What will he do?

Is this the best that you can get?
Is this the best that you can get?
Is this the best that you can get?
What did you expect?

I'm not afraid of the ocean
Afraid of devotion
I've got the balls to prove it

What would I do without you
What would I do without you
What would I do without you ...
What would I do? ...

Roll the dice
Now I wipes the tears from the skies
Play your hand
How I love my Marlboro man
Say your prayers
'Cause you've got enemies everywhere

Your wet suit is keeping you warm
In your cold bed I'll never be torn from you
Try to keep it together
You try your best to forget her

Silly me
Always a sucker for monogomy
Honesty Seems to bring out the better in me
Wish I knew
Another way to ruin the day for you

Your wet suit is keeping you warm
In your cold bed I'll never be torn from you
Try to keep it together
You try your best to forget her

I just can't leave you this way
When you're not okay
Dreams will pass through here someday
And take you away
But you won't let me hit the ground
When my heart slows down

Your wet suit is keeping you warm
In your cold head I'll never be torn from you
Try to keep it together
You try to keep it together
You try to keep it together
Keep us together
Keep us together
Keep us together

I know you've got my back
From the way you plan your next attack
I know you've placed your bets
By the way you like to watch me sweat
If I could have my way
I'd chain you down and make you stay

'Cause you're the yes man,yes man, nobody else can
You're the best man, yeah man, nobody else can
You're my left hand,right hand, man , you're the right man
You won't let me down
You won't let me down
You won't let me

I know you in the dark
By the way your hands pull me apart
I know you in the day
By the way you're here but miles away
I know you're in the mood not to be attached or be misused.

'Cause you're the yes man,yes man, nobody else can
You're the best man, yeah man, nobody else can
You're my left hand,right hand, man , you're the right man
You won't let me down
You won't let me down
You won't let me
Down down baby
Take me Hot and Hazy
Leave me Limp and Lazy

You can't save me
You can't save me
You can't save me
Oh no

I'll be your sacrifice
Lysistrata, I'm the perfect daughter
The perfect slaughter, the perfect slaughter

Yes man,yes man, nobody else can
You're the best man, yeah man, nobody else can
You're my left hand,right hand, man

You wont let me down
You wont let me down
You wont let me down
You wont let me down

Down down baby
Take me Hot and Hazy
Leave me Limp and Lazy

You can't save me
You can't save me
You can't save me
Oh yeah

Down down baby
Take me Hot and Hazy
Leave me Limp and Lazy

You can't save me
You can't save me
You can't save me

Can I help it if I'm not neat
If there were creeps before you
How can I help you if I am weak?
If I don't know how to help me
But I love you, I love you

Imperfect, imperfect, imperfectly
I love you imperfect, imperfect, imperfectly

Can I help it if I'm high strung
If I was born with a sharp tongue
Will you marry me if I stay sweet?
If I am the one with the cold feet
I love you, I love you

Imperfect, imperfect, imperfectly
I love you Imperfect, imperfect imperfectly
I love you imperfect, imperfect, imperfectly
Imperfectly, imperfectly, imperfectly, imperfectly
Imperfectly, imperfectly, imperfectly

I dont believe what he said
I can go anywhere
I can hold my head up
I can breathe in the air

I'm not officially dead
I still have a heart
I'm not officially dead
Yeah I still have a heart

Do you remember the times
You ride your bike past my house?
I want to know you so bad
Know you inside and out

You're officially dead
You don't have a heart
You're officially dead
Yeah you don't have a heart
You're officially dead
You don't have a heart
You're officially dead

See me
Feel me
Try to
Kill me

Please be easy
Just don't leave
Just don't leave me for dead

I know you can't let me go
It's all in your head
You want me back in your arms
Want me back in your bed

We're officially dead
We don't have a heart
We're officially dead
We don't have a heart...
We don't have a heart...
We don't have a heart...
Whooooaa
Officially dead
We're officially dead
Officially dead

Don't thank me for what you got
I've given you love, I've given you too much thought
Don't blame me for sinking the ship
You're a hopeless liar and a hypocrite

Only you know, only you know
Only you know, only you know

Don't thank me for what you got
I've given you love, I've given you too much thought
Don't shame me for calling it quits
You're a hopeless sinner and an optimist

Only you know, only you know
Only you know, only you know

Don't hate me for what you got
I've given you drugs
I've given you too much thought
Don't blame me for flunking the test
I'd rather think that you were honest

Don't blame me 'cause you got caught
You've given me up, you've taking everything I've got
Those lies came straight from your mouth
I never dreamed that you would be a sellout

Only you know, only you know
Only you know, only you know

Don't use me as your last crutch
I've taken you in, I've trusted you way too much
Don't wear me around your wrist
You should've though it through before you blew it

Same day, same life
Different person
Your ghost
My pride
Perfect
"That you leave me alone"

Same day, same day
Same life, same life
Different person
Your ghost, your ghost
My pride, my pride
Perfect union

Don't hate me for what you got
I've given you love
I've given you too much thought
Don't shame me for sinking the ship
You're a hopeless liar and a hypocrite

Don't hate me for what you're not
I'm aiming your gun, I'm not enough a perfect shot
Don't waste me, on something stupid like this
I would rather die than take this bullet
(same day) I would rather die than take this bullet
(same day) I would rather die than take this bullet
(same day) I would rather die than take this bullet
I would rather die than take your bullet!!!!

Only you know (than take your bullet!!)
Only you know (different person)
(Than take your bullet!!)
Only you know (than take your bullet!!)
Only you know (different person)
Only you know only you know (different person)
Only you know only you know (different person)

Disconnected, it's the way that I wanted it to be
The Cult Electric is my favorite record of the week
Cause I'm not feeling sweet

But I can't say that when everyone is so judgmental
And I can't play back all the times when you were gentle
Cause even you can't be true

It's astounding what love can do to a city
Laurel Canyon was the best place for you and me to be
I chose the curtains and I dreamed a dream of domesticity
What a freak you made of me

Now I'm on Zoloft because you told me I was crazy
And I won't jump cause now I know you'd never catch me
And I can't leave you because you swore you'd never let me
But even you, talk shit too.

It's January when I jumped the fence of your backyard
Finish the fairy tale that you weren't drunk enough to start
It's kind of scary when your lover leaves you for a movie star
But I'm still in the dark

But you have trained to watch my back and drop my standards
And you have shamed me since the first time you were with her
And you cant make me love your band or buy your records
Cause you have tainted my respect for your adventures

And you will never have the chance to trace my features
And you will never make me feel like such a loser
And you can have the past 'cause I'm in love with the future

I'm in love with the future

And I have met a boy
Who makes you look so shallow (I'm in love with the future)
And there is so much time
And so much space to travel (I'm in love with the future)
And I will make the climb and I will kiss the gravel (I'm in love with the
future)

(Touch the sky) (It's kinda scary)
And I will kiss the gravel (I'm in love with the future)

(Touch the sky) (It's kinda scary)
And I will kiss the gravel

I'll touch the sky
I'll touch the sky
Watch me..watch me
I'll touch the sky
I'll touch...
The sky, the sky

Don't you see
I'm the one for you, you're the one for me
Don't you see
The love I've got is the love you need
Don't you see

I'm all dressed up
To be what you want
Me to be I'm all dressed up
To be what you want me to be
I'm all dressed up
All dressed up, all dressed up

Don't you see, don't you see
The infinite possibilities
Don't you need, don't you need
The kind of love that I need
Don't you see me, don't you see me

I'm all dressed up
To be what you want me to be
I'm all dressed up
To be what you taught me to be
I'm all dressed up
All messed up, all messed up

You don't even notice me
Moving you like a ton of glaciers
You don't even notice me
Soothing you like a long lost sister
You don't even care
No you don't even care

All dressed up
With no place to go
But home, but home

I'm all dressed up
To be what you want me to be
I'm all dressed up
To be what you want me to be
I'm all dressed up
All dressed up, all dressed up

You don't even comfort me
And carry on with the will of Samson
You don't even comfort me
You keep your faith and you keep your phantoms
And you don't even care
No you don't even care

All dressed up still there's something wrong
I'm all dressed up and you're just a song
I'm all dressed up you're forever gone everlong

You don't even care
No you don't even care
You don't even care
No you don't even care
You don't even care
No you don't even care
You don't even care
No you don't even care
You don't even care
No you don't even care
You don't even care

I used to know her
I used to talk about her
Waiting for the day that she would listen
I used to know her
I used to stick up for her
Something in her smile was so bitchin'

I used to sing, I used to sing

I used to know her
Used to know all about her
I used to need her
There was something about her
I used to torch her
It's the best way around her
I used to know her
Now it just doesnt matter, oh yeah
oh yeah...

I used to fuck him
I used to simplify him
Something in his walk was like Jim Morrison
I used to touch him
I used to justify him
Lying to my face with my permission.

I used to sing, I used to sing

I used to fuck him
Used to fucking love him
I used to need him
Now I read all about him
I used to touch him
Now I could never kiss him
I used to love him
Now I dont even miss him, oh yeah.
oh yeah, oh yeah
oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah...

I used to know her.....
I used to terrify her, I used to terrify her, I used to terrify her
I used to terrify her, I used to terrify her

I used to sing, we used to sing!

I used to know her
I used to know all about her
I used to need her
There was something about her
I'm used to tortue
It's the best way around her
I used to know her
Now she just doesn't matter, oh yeah
She just doesn't matter..oh yeah
She just doesn't matter..oh yeah
She just doesn't matter..oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah

Last night I dreamt you were gay
It was all you needed to say
Finally an answer for why you dont want me that way

Last year I slept in your arms
Slept right through the alarm
But now you live in Virginia, alone on a farm

Boys Will be Boys
Boys Will be Boys
Girls can't avoid
Pretty Boys

Last July I came untied
My trousers , my bra , and my pride
You were so confident that I would let you inside.

Back of the bus in Berlin
That was the summer of sin
Bryan and Richie pounding the bottle of gin

Liars and lovers
Twin brothers
Never win

Boys Will be Boys
Boys Will be Boys
Girls can't avoid
Pretty Boys

Girls can't avoid
Pretty Boys
No girls can't avoid
Pretty Boys

Weren't you the pilot who fell from the skies Was it a big mistake or just
plain homicide How does it feel on the other side Do you hang out with the
saints or the spies
Are you still hellraising Are you still hellraising Hellraising
Is this the kind of thing we always fear Are you so bent on hell you'd leave
me up here God bless the miles we travelled too fast God help the suckers
dead in your path
Are you still hellraising Are you still hellraising Hellraising
You will pay for your mistakes You will pay for your mistakes You will pay
for your mistakes You will pay
This love was born on crutches, crippled and bored Ripped out asleep and
strangled by a phone cord Weren't you the pilot who swerved off the course
Was it disaster or just plain force?
