Need a Girl 03:27

Girl would you like me To open up to ya? Well, that ain’t likely I ain’t much of a truther But baby I’m still willing To do what it takes to Show I’m Jack and you’re Jill and Have what it takes to date you I’ve been acting bad Which for me is different Both my sister and dad Say I’m insignificant So I need an other To save me from my dumb ways I can’t go further In my life without love babe CHORUS I need compassion, I need an occupation I need a mansion, I need some validation I need it all, I need the world I need a brick wall… I need a girl Tired of being a dreamer Life’s got me run down If she’s just an idea Then I ain’t pro-noun But I know she exists and She’s skilled in chiropractory If I think of quitting She’s always got my back for me CHORUS I’m not looking for a girl with a sky-high IQ Not asking for a ring or a fancied-up ‘I do’ I understand I dream big and I got a spacious dome But once I toned down my ego I learned fame’s never attained alone SOLO So whatcha say darling? Let me be your man Hope I came across charming And you like me as I am Cuz if you really like me I’ll go ‘head and screw V W X Y Z My success is up to you CHORUS/CHORUS

Lock and Key 03:32

We stood up at the altar Trading our ‘I do’s It was the day I was certain I’d spend every last day with you Now I guess you loved me Only to a certain degree Cuz after the wedding ceremony CHORUS You put my heart under lock and key You got my heart under lock and key But now it stays in the same place from day to day and I can’t change It’s under lock and key Trapped like a bird in a cage You took away my wings I’m in this ‘til death parts us Just cuz of two golden rings I’m trying to find the way out But I can’t escape I don’t know the combination to your soul safe CHORUS I tried so hard to love you more ‘Cept your heart is as cold as ice Even when I thought I qualified I used thousands of bobby pins And those didn’t even suffice How many other men’s hearts do you have inside? CHORUS I’m under lock and- It’s under lock and- I’m under lock and- It’s under lock and keyyyy… YEAH

Going Back for Second Thoughts 03:33
lyrics

I’m to the east of a feast Where the meats are nice and fresh It’s a shame I’m to blame  For the way we ended this Now I regret having left Never meant to cause distress Or make you distraught I shouldn’t have broke what we had It’s so bad I have to second guess… Going back for second thoughts Maybe, baby, I was a bit too hasty To say we should split tracks You were, truer to me than I knew, you’re Too sore-hearted to take me back Now I spy you and I Up inside my mind every day You’re the curse I loved first It’s the worst feeling, saddest pain In my mind it’s a crime At the time I cared so little Don’t know how I forgot Pain’s engrained in this brain I’m stuck playin’ second fiddle… Going back for second thoughts Maybe, baby, I shouldn’t have been so lazy And vaguely told you why we wouldn’t work Hit undo, I want you, ‘cept you just wanna gimme a one-two Punch to the face, and get blood on my shirt SOLO What the hell? I can tell I'm not well without you here We were young, we had fun Became one after New Years  Some pleasant time was spent Then it went awry, not as planned Heartbreak ain’t what you bought I told you I sold you An old used blue heart second-hand...  Going back for second thoughts Maybe, baby, I went a little too crazy  To break me and you up at the seams  We liked us, we tried this, but after all this I guess, we possessed something better left in dreams

Never cross me, never boss me around Cuz I’m the meanest man in town I can veto you but you can’t veto me I got more people on my side because I hate minority CHORUS I’m the lawmaker so you follow my rules I’m the fat cat and you’re the fools I’ll make rules you can’t condemn I’m the best lawmaker there’s ever been Since I am who I am, I helped write the Bill of Rights Think about making laws every day and night Whatever I tell you, don’t start a riot Don’t protest, just keep your mouth quiet I’ll make our nation great and white like a shark Make it bright as day cuz I’m afraid of the dark Listen to all of the lies that I’ve said, cuz It’s better to burn bridges and build walls instead CHORUS I’m the man with a plan of action A suit-and-tie guy with a pen One piece of paper’ll do or maybe stacks and Stacks and stacks of them KICK-ASS KEYBOARD SOLO Just scrawling laws in my free TIME CHORUS/CHORUS

Kidding Myself 03:35
lyrics

I got a feeling so strong I wish I didn’t have to quit it My bottom lip is bleeding cuz of how hard you bit it You said you didn’t want serious I said that’s fine Then I forgot that there was more than just me on your mind CHORUS Talk all the words I love to hear Whisper sweet nothings in my ear Touch me where I’m my weakest I’m kidding myself, I’m just kidding myself I’ve come to terms and it’s my fault Seeing all the things I saw That kiss, I didn’t have to see it I’m kidding myself, I’m still kidding myself Don’t try to explain you’re only wasting your words I know what you did was just a dumb drunken urge Last night was fun, I don’t want you to worry You were right and I was in the wrong, I’m sorry CHORUS ANGELIC ACOUSTIC SOLO Tried to maintain myself, I couldn’t keep calm The back of my mind still knows that you turn me on You felt so recognizable back in my hands But once the drink hit your lips, I knew I had no chance CHORUS

Two Silhouettes 03:05
lyrics

Came to apologize, I came riding in low Then my eyes drew to her window What I saw, I bet you can’t guess: Another guy’s paws touching my girl’s dress She was mine at the time Told her “Don’t forget” I’d be with her But that night I saw a sight Of two silhouettes Begging to differ CHORUS Two silhouettes (moving closer) Two silhouettes (thought we were fine) Two silhouettes (wish I’d really known her) She wouldn’ta done it if she was really mine That made me panic so I hid in a bush Heart sank like the Titanic when I saw their lips touch It was only that morning when she said “we’re over” Then I started mourning cuz of how quick I lost her We were fine at sunshine Trust me, we were A happy pair Then something happened in between While staring at her All I saw was their CHORUS I thought our relationship was working out Turns out not everything was in tact Now I gotta hope it starts going south And she’ll come running back ANOTHER SICK KEYBOARD SOLO??? CHORUS All mine… if she was mine

You Gotta Love Me First 03:39

Hey big boy, wanna get outta here? Bet you can’t even guess what’s next You’re not gonna know ‘Til we get out of our clothes That I’m like my apartment… complex Yeah, unbutton your shirt, I can’t wait Until I see those masculine pecs Oh it’s so fun to tease you And make you believe That we’re actually gonna have sex Now the night’s not over… I’m not sober And I feel like crushing ambitions ‘Fore our bodies get bare There’s one thing I should share Like my hair, I have one condition CHORUS You gotta love me first Love me like I love you Love me first Love me like I’m always thinking of you Love me first We’re under my sheets, I’m still fully clothed You’re waiting for me to strip We’ve been making out For twenty minutes now And our hands have remained ‘bove our hips I’m really serious, none of this is a joke I gotta test if you truly care So grab that pencil From the bedside table And fill out this fifty-question questionnaire OH the night’s not over… I’m getting sober So I’m doing this all on my own volition ‘Fore our bodies get bare There’s one thing I should share Like my hair, I have one condition CHORUS/CHORUS I’m not letting you inside me ‘Til you climb inside my soul Though you’re hard as rock You ain’t concrete… So you ain’t filling this hole After every guy I meet They leave my crushed heart On the nightstand Been hurt so much in these kinds of situations I’ve changed my stance on one-night stands CHORUS/CHORUS/CHORUS

Hanging On The Telephone* 02:36
lyrics

I’m in the phone booth It’s the one across the hall If you don’t answer I’ll just ring it off the wall I know he’s there But I just had to call Don’t leave me hanging on the telephone Don’t leave me hanging on the telephone I heard your mother now She’s going out the door Did she go to work Or just go to the store? All those things she said I told you to ignore Why can’t we talk again? Why can’t we talk again? Why can’t we talk again? Don’t leave me hanging on the telephone Don’t leave me hanging on the telephone It’s good to hear your voice You know it’s been so long If I don’t get your call Then everything goes wrong I want to tell you something You’ve known all along Don’t leave me hanging on the telephone I had to interrupt And stop this conversation Your voice across the line Gives me a strange sensation I’d like to talk when I Can show you my affection I can’t control myself I can’t control myself Can’t control myself Don’t leave me hanging on the telephone Hang up and run to me… Hang up and run to me… Hang up and run to me…
