It hurt when you said that we’re through
And you don’t love me at all
At the burger place, In my disgrace
I went running to the bathroom stall
Drip Drip Drip Tears in the Toilet
Drip Drip Drip What can I do?
Drip Drip Drip I’m cryin’ into the toilet
Cause I can’t stand to cry in front of you
I think about things we used to do
And dreams that won’t come true
I think about your new guy
And how someday he’ll break your heart too
You broke my heart at the burger stand
Said you found yourself a new man
Said I was nothin' more than a little crush
A love like this can only end with a flush

Beach Mob

California and it’s too fucking hot
There’s weed to smoke and waves to be caught
You could stay at home or not, so here’s a thought
It’s time for a Beach Mob (go for a dip)
Beach Mob (take a little trip)
I can’t think of nothing that I’d like to do
more than to go to the beach with you
The air is warm but the water’s cool
Sure beats sneakin’ into a pool
And if we get cold, guess it’s alright
We’ll just have to have a fire tonight
Beach Mob (waves and weed)
Beach Mob (just what I need)
I can’t think of nowhere that I’d like be
more than the sand and sea you and me
I can’t think of nothing that’d mean any more
than to waste the day away at the shore

I'm a Flower You Freak

I guess a year might be an hour
I’ve got cold, you’ve gone sour
But hey baby, let’s head for the hills
We won’t have to worry ‘bout payin’ no bills
And I won’t be so paranoid anymore
It won’t be like it was before
uh nothing to do, Nothing to see
Nowhere to go and nowhere to be
Gee, I’m a flower, you freak
I don’t need to speak
No I don’t need to speak
I wouldn’t know what to say
I’m just a flower anyway
I guess a year might be a day
I’ve gone green, you’ve gone gray
I don’t think I know what to say
And I don’t know if I love you anyway
But if that’s the case then I can’t unwind
That’s the only way it can be defined
Cause it’s never for me, it’s not my kind
I’m not gonna let that sonic clusterfuck enter my mind
(hard to meet people that don't make me want to die
- wonder why?)
I’m not gonna die just cause I’m a flower, you freak
I don’t need to speak
No I don’t need to speak
I wouldn’t know what to say
I’m just a flower anyway
Guess a year has gone away
But I can’t make sense of today
Guess I’ll have to find a way
What the hell am I going to say?
(dum-dum I'm the latest kid
it ain't my scene but it's what I did
think of what will come of this
one minute's hell and the next is bliss)
[someone tell me what to do
make it shiny and call it new]
I love you

My mind’s been jumbled on what to say
But girl this can’t wait another day
You’re everything I’ve been looking for
You mean so much more than anything I’ve seen before, woah oh
Near to you I need to be
You’re just what I love to see
You’re the girl for me
Ah, You’re the girl for me
And if you think that’s fine
Let’s get together and waste all of our time
So what do you say?
Anything’s okay
All I know is that I gotta be by your side today
Any which way
You’re not an easy find
You say what’s on your mind
I think you are my kind
No one else could compare
to your mind or your hair
The groovy clothes you wear
Oh, You’re the girl for me
And if you could be mine
Let’s get together and waste all of our time
Cause my mind’s been mangled the last few days
So please tell me girl, what do you say?
So what do you say?
Anything’s okay
All I know is that I gotta be by your side today
Do you feel the same way?

You say that you can’t see through my eyes
A simpler task would be to see through all of your lies
Well maybe I’m just pokin’ at your disguise
But by now you should know it’s never gonna materialize
Oh, who could put up with me?
Who could put up with you? ooh
You don’t like what you see
Cause I don’t like what you do ooh
Once upon a time, I could meet your standards
I only had to hail you as supreme commander
Uh, well maybe I just don’t need your cancer
And I don’t care where you’re looking cause you won’t find the answer
At a time there was time to kill
I tell ya honey it’s been a thrill
But in our heads it's never been the same
I just can’t play your fuckin’ games
And you have the gall to call me out
As if you know just what it’s all about
Well I think you can shove it up your snout
Or maybe it’s just time for you to get out
Oh, who could put up with me?
Who could put up with you? ooh
You’re still stuck to me
But I’ve had it with you ooh

Without You
02:29
|

I’m useless without you
I can’t find my way out of bed
And I don’t know what to do
And I can’t get you out of my head
You said goodbye, please don’t let it be for good
I’m gonna cry but I guess that ya knew I would
And that’s alright, but ya need to know my dear
Without you I’m living in fear
I’m broken without you
I can’t seem to stand on my feet
And I don’t know what is true
And I can’t talk to people that I meet
You said goodbye, please don’t let it be for good
I’m gonna change but I guess ya knew I would
And life goes on, but just to be clear
Without you I’m living in fear
Without you where’s my reason live?
Without you what do I have to give?
What do I have to do?
And I’ll turn out wrong
And life’ll go on
But it won’t go on with you

Oh Jared, why did you have to be into that?
Oh, oh Jared, we know what you’ve done
We know you’re a rat
I know you lost 245 pounds of fat
But ya don’t have the right to recommend me a sandwich
No ya don’t
Oh Jared, why did you have to turn out bad
Oh, oh Jared, why did you have to make me sad?
I know you made sub way very glad
Oh Jared I guess you won’t be eatin’ sub way soon
Oh, oh Jared you’ll eat what you get with a plastic spoon

I dunno what I mean to say when I say what I don’t mean
And I dunno why we have to live in the past (we’re always living too fast)
I’d rather live in dreams
But to see that nothing is how it seems (no way this is how it should be)
Who’s to say what real and what’s fantasy (in extremes, just change the recipe)
Be with me, I’ll be with you
Just be with me, We’ll find the truth
You’re killing yourself
And I know, I’ve done it once before
And I know that you expected more
But it’s really not what you’re looking for
Look and see but be with me
I’ll be with you
Just be with me
And be happy

It’s not how it used to be
That should be fine with me
I’ve had such a weird year
Oh how did I get here
Those dumb things we do
I might miss you
I try so hard to make the skies
What they should be in my eyes
Put things where they should be
It’s only what I see
To find you lonely
I’m so sorry
