Album: Songs From An American Movie, Vol. 2: Good Time For A Bad Attitude
Yes, I think it's safe to say
I feel good about the place
That I've been made in the world today
I get all sticky inside
When I close my eyes
And I open up wide
I see pictures in the clouds
So obscene I gotta laugh out loud
I look back to find my way
Reminisce and laugh about the good old days
Yeah, when I saw my brother above me
I remember the words he said
When you dream you hit bottom
Chances are good you're gonna wake up dead
I'll be up on top when the sky falls down
And it all goes wrong again
Yeah, I will be sitting on top
When It All Goes Wrong Again
Yeah, I will be sitting on top
When It all goes wrong.
Yes I think it's safe to say
I feel good about the sins
That I inflict on my own skin
I pay money to cut and burn
Pictures like the lessons that I need to learn
I see faces on the ceiling
I see them move, I hear them singing
I lay back in here by myself
I think about the time that I've spent in hell
When I saw my brother below me
I remember the words he said
When you leave you wake up happy
Then you'll sleep right in your own warm bed
I'll be singing in the rain when the bad dreams com
And It All Goes Wrong Again
Woh, I will be singing in the rain
When It All Goes Wrong Again
Woh, Woh I will be singing in the rain
When It All Goes Wrong
Where are you gonna be
When it all comes down
What are you gonna do
When it all comes down
Where are you gonna be
When It all comes down
What are you gonna do
When it all comes down on you
I'll be sitting on top of the world
When It All Goes Wrong Again
I'll be sitting on top of the world
When It All Goes Wrong Again
I'll be sitting on top when the sky falls down
And It All Goes Wrong Again
Woh I will be sitting on top when it all goes wrong again
Woh, Woh I will be sitting on top when it all goes wrong again
Again and again
I will be sitting on top when it all goes wrong
Yeah, when it all goes wrong again
Aw, when it all goes wrong again
Oh, When it all goes wrong again
When it all goes wrong again (x5)
When it all goes wrong...

We were fading
Like the bottom
of a bad dream
We were heading south
Looking for a good time
Faces look so pretty
In the spotlight
All blown out
And bathed inside a
world of white
Sometimes I feel like I am
holding it together
Sometimes I feel like
everything is fine
Something I feel
Like I'm out of control
I feel like I am falling...
...like my life is on a slide
Slide!
It was sunny on the streets
Down there by the water
She was slightly out of reach
A rich man's only daughter
I think she slept with me
Just so she could piss off
her father
I am elastic
I am easy with the damage
I am estatic
I am hungry for the climb
Sometimes I feel
Like I am falling apart...
I feel like I am falling...
...like my life is on a slide
Slide!
I know it's wrong but
I just can't seem to act my age
I know it's wrong but I just
can't seem
To control my rage
My heart is racing and
I am losing my mind
Sometimes I feel like my life is
on a slide
Those faces look so scary
In the harsh light
All blown out
And bathed inside a world
of white
We were shining
Like the good part of a
bad time
We were laughing, happy
Just to be along for the ride
Sometimes I feel like I am
really lucky
I have made it through
Bruised and scarred
And half alive
Sometimes I feel
Like I'm out of control
I feel like I am falling...
...like my life is on a slide
Slide!
Yes I know it's wrong but
I just can't seem to act my age
Yes I know it's wrong but I
just can't seem to control my rage
My hear is racing and
I am losing my mind
Sometimes I feel like my life is
on a slide

| Babytalk | |
|
This is a song about Spike
He is a bad ass guy
Who just happens to be
A really good friend of mine
Everyone I know...yeah
Who knows Spike too
Would agree when
I say the words
That Spike is cool
The problem with
my friend Spike
He has fallen into
a true love with a nice girl
Who has gotta lot of tattoos
He always talks crazy
Whenever she calls
He always talks like a baby
It's obvious now...
She has got him by the balls
She has got him by the balls...
She has got him by the balls
My weird little brother...James
And his ex-girlfriend
They would talk in those
ridiculous voices
We would all be hanging out
getting drunk in
the neighborhood
And they both would make
those ridiculous noises
He would always talk crazy
Whenever she calls
He always talks like a baby
It is obvious now
They have got him by the balls
I hate you
when you talk like that
I wish you could act like a
grown man
(they have got you by the balls)
I hate you
when you talk like that
I wish you could act like a
grown man
(they have got you by the balls)
I hate you
when you talk like that
I wish you could act like a
grown up man
(they have got you by the balls)
You will never see me...
walking that walk
You will never catch me...
talking that babytalk
(you know it's true...
they've got you by the balls)
Which brings me back to Spike
A good guy to have in a fight
Unless he was
With his girlfriend
Obnoxious on Saturday night
You know he couldn't care less
What anyone thinks
He does not give a damn
No, because he has no shame
He looks so happy
Just like everything is fine
He is oblivious to the fact
That he has no spine
He always talks crazy
(you have no shame)
Whenever she calls
(you have no shame)
He talks like a baby
(you have no shame)
It is obvious...
they have got him by the balls
I hate you
when you talk like that
I wish you could act like a
grown man
(they have got him by the balls)
I hate you
when you talk like that
I wish you could act like a
grown man
(they have got him by the balls)
You will never see me...
walking that walk
You will never catch me
....talking that babytalk
(you know it's true...
they've got you by the balls)
I am not going to let it
get to me
They've got you by the balls

hey i think this is getting to me
first class living in a goldfish bowl
just when i think
i have driven my life
where i want it to be
all i ever wanted to do
was learn how to break this world in two
to teach it all the tricks i wanted to learn
to teach it to do what i wanted it to do
no one really understands
just how simple and plain
and predictable i am
Because all i ever wanted to do was
was play guitar
in a rock and roll band
now im losing my hair and im
learning how to smile
like i just dont care
no i just dont care, no i just dont care
i see them point and
i see them stair
there goes that stupid guy
with the short blonde hair
yeah i think this is getting to me
first class living in a goldfish bowl
just when i think
ive driven my life
where i want it to be
it takes me to a place
that i dont wanna go
all i ever wanted to do
was to learn how to
break this world in two
to teach it all the tricks i wanted to learn
to teach it to do what i wanted it to do
no one really understands
just how simple and plain
and predictable i am
Because all i ever wanted to do was
was play guitar
in a rock and roll band
now im losing my hair and im
learning how to smile
no i just dont care
no i just dont care
i see them point and
i see them stare

| Misery Whip | |
|
Walking wounded with a belly
full of pain
And a big bad attitude
We are shaking shadows for that
perfect dark room
Where we can do just what we
want to do
There is a place...
Where we can leave behind
All those simple minds
They would not like
the way we live
When we are all alone
In this house that we call home
You will become my
misery whip
(yes...I said like a misery whip)
Walking hungry with a pocket
full of promise
And a big black song
in my head
I know the answers to
my questions
They are purple black and blue
And they are waiting for me in my bed
There is a place...
Where we can leave behind
All those simple minds
They would not like
they way we live
When we are all alone
In this house that we call home
You will become my
misery whip
(I will say it again...
like a misery whip)
Stop!
I get no pleasure
When I'm going through
the motions
Of my mediocre day to day
I'm just an actor
Just like
Robert fucking Redford
When I say those stupid words
That they expect me to say
Yes we can leave behind
All those simple minds
They would not like the dirty
things we do
Yeah
When we are all alone
In this house that we
call home...
I will fall down like a bitch
for you
I need you to hit me and
make me
Shake
I need you to hurt me and
make me
Beg for more
I need you to bend me and
make me
Break
I need you to make me feel like
I am your whore
I feel complete when
I feel sick inside
I need to feel like
I am real inside
I need to feel like
I am really alive
I need you to make me feel
I need you to hit me and
make me
Shake
I need you to hurt me and
make me
Beg for more
I need you to bend me and
make me
Break
I need you to make me feel
Like we can leave behind
All those simple minds
They would not like
the way we live
When we are all alone
In this house that we call home
You will become my
misery whip
You will become my
misery whip
You will become my friend

| Out Of My Depth | |
|
Out of my depth
Lost in the air
Falling faster
Like a broken elevator
Out of my depth
Lost in the dark
Waiting for the other shoe
To come down hard
I cannot communicate
Like I wish I could
I do not deal with my problems
Like I know I should
I am out of my depth
I am out of my league
Watching everything...just
Slip away from me
Something bad is
going to happen
I can feel it deep inside
There are shadows
all around me
Like a bad moon on the rise
I am in over my head
I am in too deep here
over my head
I guess I should keep my
opinions to myself
I guess I am out of my depth
Out of my depth
Right from the start
I feel like I was born
With an invisible heart
Out of my depth
Seems like everyday
I can't find the words
To make the good things
Come my way
I feel like I am faking it
I feel like I am wrong
I feel like I'm a guest
...like I just do not belong
I am out of my depth
Every single day
I just cannot find the words
To make my monsters go away
Something bad is
going to happen
I can feel it deep inside
There are shadows
all around me
Like a bad moon on the rise
I am in too deep here
over my head
I should seek
some professional help
Because I'm out of my depth
Yes, I'm out of my depth
And I am slowly going
out of my mind
Oh, go away
Make them go away
Someday I know
I will make them go away
Make them go away
Make them go away
Someday I know...I will make
my monsters go away
I am in over my head
I should seek
some professional help
I should keep my
opinions to myself
I guess I am out of my depth
I am out of my depth
Yes, I am slowly going
out of my mind

| The Good Witch Of The North | |
|
You pull me down
To the floor
Of our apartment
A little while later
We are laughing at our
carpet burns
I like the way that it
glows outside
As the room gets darker
How I wish we could stay
like this
While the rest of the
world turns
There has never been a time
When I didn't want to be
your boyfriend
There has never been a time
When I didn't want to know
your name
Free falling from a work
in progress
Free falling from a life on hold
There has never been a time
When I didn't want you
My good lover
Is my one good thing
these days
You help me keep it all
From slipping away
I swear I'm going to
Marry you
Someday (someday)
I am all alone
And it seems like
All I do is wait
We spend hours on the phone
But it's never the same
No, nothing good ever does
come easy
Nothing good ever comes
without a fight
I am all alone
And I wish I was home
With you tonight
Yes, my good lover
Is my one good thing
these days
You help me keep it all
From slipping away
I swear I'm going to
Marry you
Someday
My girlfriend is like
Magic in the hand
When I lose my sparkle
She's the one
that understands
I know I'm going to marry you
someday
I swear I'm going to marry you
someday
I swear I'm going to marry you...
Someday

| All Fucked Up | |
|
I am all fucked up
And I am ready to break
I don't wanna be the guy
Who is always on the outside
I wanna find my own
good place
All fucked up
And I don't know how
How I ever got to where I feel
Like I am dying on the inside
I want to be happy
But I don't know how
I am all fucked up
And it's always the same
I always get so close,
Then I let it get away
I got no one but
myself to blame
I'm all fucked up
And I don't know why
If the rest of my life
Is going to be like this
Think I would rather die
I am all fucked up
Yes, I am all fucked up
You're happy
when you are all fucked up
Yes, I am all fucked up
I am all fucked up
Yes, I am ready to break
I don't wanna be the guy
Who is always on the outside
I wanna find my own
good place
All fucked up
And I don't know how
How I ever got to where I feel
Like I'm dying on the inside
I want to be happy now
I am all fucked up
And it is always the same
I always get so close
then I let it get away
I got no one but
myself to blame
I am all fucked up
And I don't know why
If the rest of my life
Is going to be like this
Than I think I would rather die
I am all fucked up

| Overwhelming | |
|
It can come from out of nowhere,
hit you when you're safe and warm.
Take it easy, my star your time is gonna come,
your time is gonna come.
Yeah, you got those crazy blue eyes.
You got those crazy blues.
All those pretty smiles,
I can see them laughing at you.
Your time is gonna come, your time is gonna come.
I don't wanna be your punching bag,
your complacent little princess all tragic and sad.
I'm not gonna let you overwhelm me anymore.
Yeah, you say you got this bad thing, you say you've got it bad.
You have broken every heart of every friend you've ever had.
Yeah, the time is gonna come when all your friends just go away.
I wonder why you stick around, sometimes I wish you would leave.
You say you love me forever, then you spit on me.
Your time is gonna come,
I swear your time is gonna come.
I don't want to be your whipping boy.
Yes, your happy little loser, someone you can ignore.
I'm not gonna let you overwhelm me anymore.
I'm not gonna let you hurt me anymore.
I'm not gonna let you hit me anymore.
No, I will not let you kick me anymore.
I will not let you overwhelm me anymore.
It can come from out of nowhere.
I don't want to be your simple saving grace,
just another little victim with a happy face.
Someday, someday soon, somebody's gonna come,
I hope they do this to you.
I'm not gonna let you overwhelm me.
I will not let you hurt me anymore.
No, I will not let you hit me anymore.
I will not let you twist me anymore.
No, I will not let you turn me inside out.

Yes I think it's safe to say
I feel good about the place
That I have made in the world today
I get all sticky inside
When I close my eyes and I open up wide
I see pictures in the clouds
So obscene I gotta laugh out loud
I look back to find my way
And reminisce nice about the good old days
Yeah, when I saw my brother above me
I remember the words he said
"When you dream you hit bottom
Chances are good you're gonna wake up dead"
I will be up on top when the sky falls down
And It all goes wrong again
Yeah,
I will be sitting on top when it all goes wrong again
Yeah,
I will be sitting on top when it all goes wrong
Yes I think it's safe to say
I feel good about the sin
That I inflict on my own skin
I pay money to cut and burn
Pictures like lessons that I need to learn
I see faces on the ceiling
I see them move
I hear them singing
I lay laughing here by myself
And think about the time that I spent in Hell
When I saw my brother below me
I remember the words he said
"When you need to wake up happy
You better sleep right in your own warm bed"
I will be singing in the rain
When my beds on fire and it all goes wrong again
Whoa,
I will be singing in the rain
When it all goes wrong again
Whoa...whoa,
I will be singing in the rain
When it all goes wrong
Where are you gonna be
When it all comes down?
What are you gonna do
When it all comes down?
What are you gonna be
When it all comes down?
What are you gonna do
When it all comes down on you?
Sitting on top of the world
(When it all goes wrong again)
I'll be sitting on top of the world
(When it all goes wrong again)
I will be sitting on top when the sky falls down
And it all goes wrong again
Whoa,
I will be sitting on top
When it all goes wrong again
Whoa...whoa,
I will be sitting on top
When it all goes wrong again
Again & again
i will be sitting on top
When it all goes wrong
Yeah, when it all goes wrong again (x 7)
When it all goes wrong...
