Can't fix it with just one pill
Can't fix it with just one kill
That shot will make you ill
Don't look at me i bought it too
Dino's for us that won't get you
Mommies gonna carry you
We can make it if we try
That can sell it we won't buy ba dadda
Ba badda ba ba badda da da
Ba badda ba ba badda da da
Teach me dear butterfly
Teach me I wanna try
Gonna tell your mommy
who really knows me
Joining Chris' army
Those kids will go the distance
Teach you about resistance
To trust in 84
The year that punk was born
Yeah you can fix it
Gonna have to real quick
Poke and stick and brand new map
Can't trust the future's past
They don't believe in you
Cause of all the things you do
It's gonna take more than god to help us
Ba badda ba ba badda da da
Ba badda ba ba badda da da
Ba badda ba ba badda da da
Ba badda ba ba badda da da
Ba badda ba ba badda da da
Ba badda ba ba badda da da
Ba badda ba ba badda da da
Ba badda ba ba badda da da

Resilient Bastard

and the script reads
"your name right here
says something rude to me rude to me rude to me"
I don't think about it
I don't linger on it
rude to me rude to me rude to me
I'm not hurt
I'm a resilient bastard
I'm okay
I'll wait another day
I'm not scared
I'm just unaware
or I just don't care
and the book reads
"my name right here
says something stupid again"
I don't think about it
I don't linger on it
stupid stupid stupid
I'm not hurt
I'm a resilient bastard
I'm okay
I'll wait another day
I'm not scared
I'm just unaware
or I just don't care
I'm not hurt
I'm a resilient bastard
I'm okay
I'll wait another day
I'm not scared
I'm just unaware
or I just don't care

Means That Much
03:11
|

You can take the sun and the moon and the stars
You can take the beach and the waves and the shores
But don't take tonight
Don't take tonight
You can take the angels away from the gods
You can take the needles away from the nods
But don't take tonight
Don't take tonight
It means that much to me
it means that much to me
It means that much to me
it means that much to me
(guitar solo)
It means that much to me
it means that much to me
It means that much to me
it means that much to me
You can take the planes and the trains and the cars
You can take it way back, back to the start
But don't take tonight
Don't take tonight
You can take the breaks like the one now a scar
You can take the words straight out of my mouth
But don't take tonight
Don't take tonight
It means that much to me
it means that much to me
It means that much to me
it means that much to me

Crashing Rockets
02:39

One step closer
Wearing clothes to look like you
With broken pieces that you force together with glue
And to be you is to know you make believe
Exploding bombs inside your sleeve
I'm in orbit circling round your atmosphere
And transmitting translations of things you said
Circling stars that, circling stars that circle you
Crashing rockets in your shoe
I'm just circling your atmosphere
Riding the skyway that keeps you near
I'm just circling your atmosphere
Riding the skyway that keeps you here
One step further, one step further from the truth
Broken heart-ed you try to force together with glue
And you try to reach for me but you find that you can't
Earthquakes and floods inside your pants
I'm in prison circling stuck in your tractor beam
And transmitting explanations of what you mean
Circling planets whose faces look like you
Crashing rockets in your shoe
I'm just circling your atmosphere
Riding the skyway that keeps you near
I'm just circling your atmosphere
Riding the skyway that keeps you here

Flowers for Julie
02:24
|

Say it isn't so
This rumors in disguise
It's all just a pack of lies
So don't you push
And shove me up against the wall
I'm standing tall and after all
You touch me, you fill my life
And that is why, I don't want to buy
Flowers for Julie
Flowers for Julie
Flowers for Julie
Flowers for Julie
No no don't believe a word
A word of what you've heard
Repeat it only if you're sure
Sure you want to push
And shove me up against the wall
I'm standing tall and after all
You touch me, you fill my life
And that is why, I don't want to buy
Flowers for Julie
Flowers for Julie
Flowers for Julie
Flowers for Julie

Dirty Looks
01:52
|
|||
I don't know if this could be
I see the way you look at me
We've been here before, we've been here before
We tend to run into discord
And our times really come to be
It doesn't have to be with me
It makes it bad, it makes it bad
With all those things we could've had
I guess I'm just not built that way
At least I feel that way today
It was better before, better before
No I don't like the looks of this
At all
At all
At all and all and all and all
No I don't like the looks of this at
Never lose these hopes and dreams
It's not the loss it sometimes seems
Shining star, shining star
We tend to run but not that far
And our time cannot come today
Because we clocked in yesterday
Makes me glad, makes me glad
For all the great things that we've had
And I won't let society
Judge and grade me not to be
Better before, better before
No I don't like the looks of this
At all
At all
At all and all and all and all
No I don't like the looks of this
At all
At all
At all and all and all and all
No I don't like the looks of this at all

There for You
01:52
|
|||
I just got your letter
Heard how you're going away
I hope you get better
It's just sometimes I think
I'm there for you
So you're here for me too
That's not the truth
We're friends but I'm not there for you
Sometimes I think
I'm there for you
So you're here for me too
That's not the truth though
We're friends but I'm not there for you

He said she said he said she said he said
You think you're so cool
She said he said she said he said she said
Don't act like a fool
They go back and forth at one another
Just like a sister and her brother
Guess that's just the way for lovers
He said she said he said she said he said
You think you're so right
She said he said she said he said she said
Don't try to pick a fight
They go back and forth at one another
Just like a sister and her brother
Guess that's just the way for lovers
They go back and forth at one another
Just like a sister and her brother
Guess that's just the way for lovers

Blah blah blah blah blah blah
Is all I hear
Blah blah blah blah blah blah
Is all I hear
Blah blah blah blah blah blah
Is all I hear
Blah blah blah blah blah blah
In and out my ear
As if they've ever understood
All the words are made of wood
And they burn in this fire here
As if I'll ever understand
I'm just made up of man
And I learn in this fire here
You gotta get right
You gotta get right
Down on it
You gotta get right
You gotta get right
Down on it
Blah blah blah blah blah blah
Is all you say
Blah blah blah blah blah blah
Is all you say
Blah blah blah blah blah blah
Is all you say
Blah blah blah blah blah blah
Is all I hear anyway
As if they've ever understood
All the words are made of wood
And they burn in this fire here
As if I'll ever understand
I'm just made up of man
And I learn in this fire here
You gotta get right
You gotta get right
Down on it
You gotta get right
You gotta get right
In your head

Muster Up
02:11
|
|||
You'll be sorry the next time that you see me
I'm gonna rough you up so tenderly
You'll be happy the next time you see me go
That's when you'll know for sure that the pain is over
And I feel sorry for your inability
To muster up the guts to offer me an apology
So you'll be broken the next time you see the sun
I'm gonna fix it so your rotten life's no fun
You'll be wishing that you'd never shattered glass
When this kindly heart-ed man kindly kicks your ass
And I feel sorry for your inability
To muster up the guts to offer me an apology
You'll be sorry the next time that you see me
I'm gonna rough you up so tenderly

Rumor
01:22
|

I heard a rumor I could've died
I heard a rumor I could've cried
They said that you were they could've lied
They said that you were they could've lied
I heard a rumor I could've died
I heard a rumor I could've cried
They said that you were they could've lied
They said that you were they could've lied
Now even I wanna make it with you
I wanna make it with you
I wanna make it with you
I wanna make it with you
Now even I wanna make it with you
I wanna make it with you
I use to be prude
Now even I wanna make it with you
I wanna make it with
I wanna make it with you
I wanna make it with you
I wanna make it with you
Now even I wanna make it with you
I heard a rumor

Wake Up
02:04
|
|||
Woke up on the floor stare back at a ceiling
Still not quite sure if I'm going or leaving
Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up
Awake on the boards still not quite sure
Just what was different I think I was bleeding
And I kept on going wait up, wait up, wait up
Oh no, here we go, here we go
You were still sleeping I told you my feelings
Told you the truth despite all my instincts
Enough, enough, enough, enough, enough
Time capsule anchor give me my answer
I keep on floating and I keep on sinking
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Oh no, here we go, here we go
I believe in you
|

14. |
||||
I wanna be a big shot and it's all your fault
I wanna be in the spotlight and it's all your fault
I'll get down on my knees and it's all your fault
I wanna be a disease
Oh I swear I'm gonna
Walk right out of here
Leaving behind my beer
Til I'm the last one standing here
I'll keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Keeping on
Rock and roll ruined my life
When she became my wife
Rock and roll
Rock and roll
Rock and roll
Rock and roll ruined my life

Carry On
02:23
|

I don't know what I'm supposed to do next
Just not sure where I should go
Most recent the best of me is closing softly
I've just got to find a way to carry on
Carry on
Carry on
Carry on
Find a way to carry on
Carry on
Carry on
Find a way to carry on
What the hell is going on
Is everything coming or gone
What the hell is going on
Gotta get myself back where I belong
And find a way to carry on
Carry on
Carry on
Carry on
Find a way to carry on
Carry on
Carry on
Carry on
Find a way to carry on
Carry on
Carry on
Carry on
Find a way to carry on
Carry on
Carry on
Carry on
Find a way to carry on
