Stupid Girls
Stupid girl * Stupid girl * Stupid girl
Maybe if I act like that * That guy will call me back * Porno paparazzi girls * I don't wanna be a stupid girl
Go to Fred Segal, You'll find them there * Laughin' loud so all the little people stare * Lookin' for a daddy to pay for the champagne * Droppin' names * What happened to the dream of a girl president? * She's dancing in the video next to 50 Cent * They travel in packs of two or three * With their itsy bitsy doggies and their weenie tees * Where, oh where, have the smart people gone? * Oh where, oh where could they be?
Maybe if I act like that * That guy will call me back * Porno paparazzi girls * I don't wanna be a stupid girl * Maybe if I act like that * Flippin' my blond hear back * Push up my bra like that * I don't wanna be a stupid girl
The disease is growing, it's epidemic * I'm scared that there ain't a cure * The world believes it and I'm going crazy * I cannot take anymore!!!!! * I'm so glad that I'll never fit in * That will never be me * Outcasts and girls with ambition * That's what I wanna see! * Disasters all around * A world of despair * Your only concern - will it fuck up my hair???
Maybe if I act like that * That guy will call me back * Porno paparazzi girls * I don't wanna be a stupid girl * Maybe if I act like that * Flippin' my blond hear back * Push up my bra like that * I don't wanna be a stupid girl

Who Knew
You took my hand, You showed me how * You promised me you'd be around * Uh huh, that's right * I took your words and I believed * In everything you said to me * Yah huh, that�s right
If someone said three years from now * You'd be long gone * I'd stand up and punch them out * 'Cause they're all wrong * I know better * 'Cause you said forever * And ever - who knew?
Remember when we were such fools * And so convinced and just too cool * Oh no, no no * I wish I could touch you again * I wish I could, still call you friend * I'd give anything
When someone said count your blessings now * 'Fore they're long gone * I guess I just didn't know how * I was all wrong * But they knew better * Still you said forever * And ever - who knew?
I'll keep you locked in my head * Until we meet again * Until we, until we meet again * And I won't forget you my friend * What happened?
If someone said three years from now * You'd be long gone * I'd stand up and punch them out * 'Cause they're all wrong * That last kiss, I'll cherish * Until we meet again * And time makes it harder * I wish I could remember * But I keep your memory * You visit me in my sleep * My darling * Who knew?
My darling, my darling * Who knew? * My darling, I miss you, my darling * Who knew?
Long Way To Happy
One night to you, lasted six weeks for me * Just a bitter little pill now, just to try to go to sleep * No more waking up to innocence, say hello to hesitance * To everyone I meet * Thanks to you, years ago, I guess I'll never know * What love means to me, but oh * I'll keep on rolling down this road * But I've got a bad, bad feeling
It's gonna take a long time to love * It's gonna take a lot to hold on * It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah * Left in the pieces that you broke me into * Torn apart but now I've got to * Keep on rolling like a stone * 'Cause it's gonna be a long, long way to happy
Left my childhood behind, in a rollaway bed * Everything was so damn simple * Now I'm losing my head, losing my head * Trying to cover up the damage, and pat out all the bruises * Too young to know I had it so it didn't hurt to lose it * Didn't hurt to lose it, didn't hurt to lose it * Ooh * But oh, I'll keep on rolling down this road * But I've got a bad, bad feeling
It's gonna take a long time to love * It's gonna take a lot to hold on * It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah * Left in the pieces that you broke me into * Torn apart but now I've got to * Keep on rolling like a stone * 'Cause it's gonna be a long, long way to happy
Now I'm numb as hell and I can't feel a thing * So don't worry about regret or guilt 'cause I never knew your name * I just wanna thank you, thank you * From the bottom of my heart * For all the sleepless nights, and for tearing me apart
Yeah, yeah
It's gonna take a long time to love * It's gonna take a lot to hold on * It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah * Left in the pieces that you broke me into * Torn apart but now I've got to * Keep on rolling like a stone * 'Cause it's gonna be a long
It's gonna take a long time to love * It's gonna take a lot to hold on * It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah * Left in the pieces that you broke me into * Torn apart but now I've got to * Keep on rolling like a stone * 'Cause it's gonna be a long, long way to happy
'Cause it's gonna be a long, long way to happy
Nobody Knows
Nobody knows, nobody knows but me * I sometimes cry * If I could pretend that I'm asleep when my tears start to fall * And I peak out from behind these walls * I think nobody knows * Nobody knows, no
Nobody likes, nobody likes to lose that inner voice * The one I used to hear before my life * made a choice * But I think nobody knows, nobody knows, no
Baby, oh this secret's safe with me * There's nowhere else in the world that I could even be * And baby don't it feel like I'm all alone * Who's gonna be there after the last angel has flown * And I've lost my way back home * I think nobody knows no * Nobody knows * Nobody cares
It's win or lose, not how you play the game * And the road to darkness has a way of always knowing my name * But I think nobody knows * Nobody knows * No, no, no, no
Baby oh this secret's safe with me * There's nowhere else in the world that I could ever be * And baby, don't it feel like I'm all alone * Who's gonna be there after the last angel has flown * And I've lost my way back home * And no, no, no, no no, no, no
Tomorrow I'll be there my friend * I'll wake up and start all over again * When everybody else is gone * No, no, no
Nobody knows, nobody knows the rhythm of my heart * The way I do when I'm lying in the dark * And the world is asleep * And I think nobody knows * Nobody knows * Nobody knows but me * Me
Dear Mr. President

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Dear Mr. President, come take a walk with me
Let's pretend, we're just two people and * You're not better than me * I'd like to ask you some questions, if we can speak honestly
What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street? * Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep? * What do you feel when you look in the mirror? * Are you proud?
How do you sleep while the rest of us cry? * How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye? * How do you walk with your head held high? * Can you even look me in the eye, and tell me why?
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Dear Mr. President * Where you a lonely boy? * Are you a lonely boy? * How can you say, "no child is left behind" * We're not dumb and we're not blind * They're all sitting in your cells * While you pave the road to hell
What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away? * What kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay? * I can only imagine what the first lady has to say * You've come a long way, from whiskey and cocaine!
How do you sleep while the rest of us cry? * How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye? * How do you walk with your head held high? * Can you even look me in the eye
Let me tell you 'bout hard work * Minimum wage with a baby on the way * Let me tell you 'bout hard work * Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away * Let me tell you 'bout hard work * Building a bed out of a cardboard box * Let me tell you 'bout hard work! Hard work! Hard work! * You don't know nothing 'bout hard work! Hard work! Hard work!!!!!
How do you sleep at night? * How do you walk with your head held high?
Dear Mr. President, you'd never take a walk with me * Mmmm - would you?
I'm Not Dead
Yeah, yeah, yeah
There's always cracks * A crack of sunlight, a crack in the mirror, or on your lips * It's the morning on a sunset Friday * When all conversations twist * It's the fifth day of ice on a new tattoo * But the ice should be on our heads * We only spun the web to catch ourselves * So we weren't left for dead * And I was never lookin' for approval * From anyone but you * And though this journey's over * I'd go back if you asked me to
I'm not dead, just floating * Right between the ink on your tattoo * In the belly of the beast we turned into * I'm not scared, just changing * Right behind the cigarette and the devilish smile * You're my crack of sunlight
You can do the math a thousand ways * But you can't erase the facts * That others come and others go * But you always come back * I'm the winter flower underground * Always thirsty for summer rain * And just like the changing seasons * I know you'll be back again
I'm not dead, just floating * Right between the ink on your tattoo * I tried to hide my scars from you * I'm not scared, just changing * Right behind the cigarette and the devilish smile * You're my crack of sunlight
I'm not dead just yet * I'm not dead, I'm floating * Doesn't matter where I'm going, I'll find you
I'm not scared at all * Underneath the cuts and bruises find the game where no one loses * I'll find you * I will find you
I'm not dead, just floating * I'm not scared, just changing * You're my crack of sunlight

I know I'm rare you stop and stare * You think I care I don't * You talk real loud * But you ain't saying nothing cool * I can fit your whole house in my swimming pool * My life's a fantasy * That you're not smart enough to even dream * My ice is making me freeze * You can try and try you can't beat me

Go away, give me a chance to miss you * Say goodbye, It'll make me wanna kiss you

I don't wanna weak up with another * But I don't wanna always wake up with you either * No you can't hop into my shower * All I ask for is one fucking hour * You taste so sweet but I can't eat the same thing every day * Cutting of the phone, leave me the fuck alone, and tomorrow I'll be begging you to come home
Tonight, Leave me alone, I'm lonely (alone I'm lonely) * I'm tired, leave me alone I'm lonely, alone I'm lonely tonight!
Go away, come back - go away, come back * Why can't I just have it both ways * Go away, come back - go away, come back * I wish you knew the difference * Go away, come back

Runaway
I've got my things packed * My favorite pillow * Got my sleeping bag * Climb out the window * All the pictures and pain * I've left behind * All the freedom and fame * I've gotta find * And I wonder how long it'll take that * To notice that I'm gone * And I wonder how far it'll take me, to run away * Run away, run away, run away * I was just trying to be myself * You can go your way, I'll meet you in hell * All these secrets that I shouldn't tell * I've got to run away * It's hypocritical of you * Do as you say not as you do * I'll never be your perfect girl * I've got to run away * Well I'm too young to be * Taken seriously * But I'm too old to believe * All this hypocrisy * And I wonder how long it'll take them * To see my bed is made * And I wonder if I was a mistake * I might have nowhere left to go * But I know that I cannot go home * These voices trapped inside my head * Tell me to run before I'm dead * Chase the rainbows in my mind * And I will try to stay alive * Maybe the world will know my name * GOD won't you help me run away! * Run away, run away, run away * I could sing for change on a Paris street * Be a redlight dancer in New Orleans * I could start again, choose a family * I could change my name, come home and go as I please
The One That Got Away
I stood by the exit door by the hotel cafe * He was playin' with his band * I've always been a sucker, Had a weakness * For a boy with a guitar and a drink in his hand * His words were like heaven in my hurricane * My knees buckled under * I thought everyone was watching me * Watching you save my life with a song * You we're mine in the back of my mind * O - just for one night * Just for a wile
There's always one that gets away * The one that sneeks up on you than slips away
Two weeks later I was sittin' in his apartment * He was makin' cappucino * I said "what kind of man makes cappucino?" * We laughed, we laughed, we laughed, we laughed * Till tears ran down my face * But my man you're someone else's man * And that ain't the man I wanna want * But you keep drawin' me in with those big brown lyin' eyes * But you'll always be mine in the back of my mind * O - we had a night * Just a little while
There's always one that gets away * The one that sneaks up on you then slips away * In a closed of corner of my heart * I'll always see your face
The one that got away * The one that got away * The one that got away * The one that got away * The one that got away
I'm not a victim of cliches * I don't believe in soulmates * Happy endings or the one * Oh but then I met you and all that changed * I had a taste * And you're still sitting on the tip of my tongue * You were mine * Somewhere in time * I'll look for you first * In my next life
There's always one that gets away * The one that sneaks up on you then slips away * In a closed of corner of my heart * I'll always see your face
The one that got away * The one that got away * The one that got away * The one that got away * The one that got away * The one that got away
I Got Money Now
When I was a young buck * I tried to be liked by everyone, everyone * I tried so hard to be funny and nice * I tried so hard to be sugar and spice * It didn't work for me * It got old quickly * But now, I'm not losin' sleep at night * 'Cause no one's callin' me on the telephone * To see if I'm at home * 'Cause now, I've got everything that I have ever wanted * Or so it seems, yeah so it seems
You don't have to like me anymore * I got money now * I don't care what you say about me anymore * I got money now
When I got a little older * I realized, it's all lies * There is no prize, there is no prize * There is no heartache if you can afford * Everything delivered right to your door * No responsibilities, this life is easy * So now, the girl with everything * How could she complain? * 'Cause she's got it made * Yeah she's got it made * I don't need to be tucked in at night, and told that everything is gonna be alright, it's gonna be alright, 'cause I don't have to fight
You don't have to like me anymore * I got money now * I don't care what you say about me anymore * I got money now
I wouldn't trade a dollar for some sense * I wouldn't trade a lifetime for some friends * 'Cause I've got everything * And all it what it seems * I worked so hard all of my life * Just to have things I could call mine * So I don't need no love, 'cause I have got enough * So now I don't mind being alone all the time, it's alright * 'Cause I got money now, that's what it's all about * And I'm so busy buying things and travelling the world * I don't have time for friends or family, and that's fine with me * Or so it seems
You don't have to like me anymore * I got money now * I don't care what you say about me anymore * I got money now
You don't have to like me anymore * I got money now * I don't care what you say about me anymore * I got money now

*** Fingers ***
I'm alone now * Staring at the ceiling * I'm kinda bored now * I can't sleep * And you and me can't make my life complete * When you come you slip into a dream
When it's late at night * And you're fast asleep * I let my fingers do the walking * I press record * I become a phene * And no one else is watching * I let my fingers do the walking
I'm starving * For some attention * I'm begging, pleading, bleeding * For a suggestion * I bite my tongue bacause I wanna * scream * I'm almost there and you turn and look at me
When it's late at night * And you're fast asleep * I let my fingers do the wlking * I press record * I become a phene * And no one else is watching * I let my fingers do the walking
Rewind and you will see * Why in the morning I'm happy * Right there on the TV-screen * Me vengo, me vengo * I'm restless * You need some caffeine * But I'm wasted * If you could only see * 'Cause I need more than you are gonna give
When it's late at night * And you're fast asleep * I let my fingers do the wlking * I press record * I become a phene * And no one else is watching * I let my fingers do the walking
When it's late at night * And you're fast asleep * I let my fingers do the wlking * I press record * I become a phene * And no one else is watching * I let my fingers do the walking
