You Are

Even though
You're not a fan of your reflection
Reminds you of every rejection
I just want you to see
How very lovely you are to me
(Chorus)
And you are
Loved by me (oh-oh-oh-oh) (x2)
And you feel
Like it's you and you only
Always so very lonely
But I just want you to know
I'll be with you wherever you go
(Repeat chorus)
And you think
There's no real reason to live
That you've got nothing good to give
But this is so very far from true
My heart sings and it sings for you
(Repeat chorus)
I will always love you...

In one life I was Daniel
Another life I was John
But this world's where I want to be
Cuz it's the one you're on
I wrote this song for your birthday
I should've done it long ago
Your smile makes me smile
And I want the world to know
(Chorus)
About a D and an A with an O N N between
Laughing together's the happiest I've been
A D and an A with an O N N between
I can't wait 'til we're doing it again
Your tree is better than the White House
You stole that lady's T's
You have been to the beach before
And recovered from butt disease
You're generous and you're beautiful
You have a quiet heart of gold
You'd argue there's nothing quiet about you
But I think it should be told
(Repeat chorus)

I found myself walking down the sunny side of the street, yeah
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah)
I had a smile for everyone I’d meet, yeah
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah)
I was on my way to my girlfriend’s home
I knew I’d be happy even if I was alone, yeah
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah)
She greeted me with a smile
And I knew all the while
That I was happy; I was happy, oh yeah
I got together with the guys in the band, yeah
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah)
I had a smile when got my bass in hand, yeah
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah)
We played real long and we played real hard
All the neighborhood kids were dancing in the yard, yeah
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah)
We were drinking all damn day
Pretty drunk, but we were playing OK
And I was happy; I was happy, oh yeah
Got to the club later that night, yeah
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah)
Still pretty buzzed and feeling all right, yeah
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah)
All my friends were waiting inside
Didn’t want to run and I didn’t want to hide, yeah
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah)
The beer was all for free
It was lined up, just for me
And I was happy; I was happy, oh yeah

I know I’m not your ideal
And I know you know exactly how I feel
And we know this probably will not last
Cuz you know all about my past
And maybe we don’t love each other
But sometimes we kind of like each other
Maybe we don’t love each other
But sometimes I kind of like you
(Chorus)
Sheltered, sheltered, sheltered, sheltered
Sheltered, sheltered with you
Sheltered, sheltered, sheltered, sheltered
Sheltered, sheltered with you
I know sometimes you’ll be there for me
And I know sometimes I’ll be there for you
And we know that’s all you can ask for
Cuz you know I can’t give you anymore
And when we drink together
We keep this shitty life at bay
When we drink together
Everything is okay
And I appreciate the love you gave to me
And I appreciate the time you saved me
And someday I want to leave this life behind
But right now it’s the furthest thing from my mind
(Repeat chorus)

Mercy Fuck
02:10
|
|||
|
Is it because in daylight I’m as ugly as sin?
Or is it because my head’s the size of a pin?
She thinks I’m nice but I just cannot win
I want her to love me but she’ll just say it again
(Chorus)
A mercy fuck is all I can give to you
We’ve been through this before – it’s nothing new
I pity you so we can screw
But a mercy fuck is all I can give to you
A mercy fuck is all I can give to you
I got drunk and I called her late one night
I told her that I loved her, that she was my Miss Right
She suppressed a laugh and told me not to be blue
She said she’d fuck me once but it was all she could do
(Repeat chorus)
Rejection makes me feel so mean
It’s a side of myself I’ve never seen
I’m coming up to a babe from behind
But when I see her face I change my mind
So why don’t I take her up on her generous offer?
At least I’d have that one great memory
I’ll tell you the truth and the truth is I am scared
I’d come too fast and she’d think even less of me
(Repeat chorus)

Billy Milligan
Billy Milligan is my name
Billy Milligan
That’s not my only name
Ah ah
Ah ah
Why oh why
Ah ah
I can fight like a son of a bitch
And my paintings will make me rich
I can fix any engine
And no straitjacket can hold me in
My crime
I raped someone
It was when
I was a lesbian
Ah ah
Ah ah
Why oh why
Ah ah
Multiple personality
So many people make up me
Can I win in the end?
Or will they drive me around the bend?

5-hour Energy
00:45
|
|||
|
I want to get hooked on something that’s clean
With vitamins, nutrients and caffeine
5-hour Energy fits the bill
Oh my glorious liquid pill
(Chorus)
5-hour Energy (Energy!)
5-hour Energy (Energy!)
5-hour Energy (Energy!)
5-hour Energy (Energy!)
Uh-uh-oh-uh-uh-oh-uh-uh-uh-ow
Uh-uh-oh-uh-uh-oh-uh-uh-uh-ow
Maximum strength is the way to go
The regular kind is just so-so
One per day is what your dose should be
Any more than that will make you jittery
(Repeat chorus)

In Pieces
01:51
|

|
You can leave in peace
Or you can leave in pieces
You can leave in peace
Or you can leave in pieces
You can leave in peace
Or you can leave in pieces
The choice is yours (2, 3, 4)…
You’re a gluttonous, prideful, greedy sloth
You’re a wrathful, envious, dirty cloth
You can leave in peace
Or you can leave in pieces
You can leave in peace
Or you can leave in pieces
The choice is yours (2, 3, 4)…
Go away
Go awayyyyyyyy
You can leave in peace
Or you can leave in pieces
You can leave in peace
Or you can leave in pieces
And it looks it’s gonna be… in pieces!

Requiem For You
03:01
|
|||
|
Nothing will ever be the same after today
And I know that’s a histrionic thing for me to say
But the way you just dropped me cold is messing with my head
And all I can do to forget is to pretend that you are dead
(Chorus)
(So this is) My requiem for you
Ooo-ooo Ooo-ooo-ooo
My requiem for you
Ooo-ooo Ooo-ooo-ooo
Now it’s been a month or two -- I don’t know which
But it might surprise you to know I don’t think you’re a bitch
I still don’t understand what I did wrong
The only thing left for me to do is say goodbye with this song
(Repeat chorus)
