Perspective
02:07

Hate to admit that it’s true but
I’m infatuated with you
I’ve tried to act like I really don’t care
I always look away when I’d really rather stare
Cause heaven forbid that you should know
I just can’t let this side of me show
I’m too old to be acting this obsessive
Why’s it so hard to keep these things in perspective?
Like we’ve never had a word and you don’t know my name
Big deal if you did – it’s still be the same
Cause you’re a them the special they and I’m not in this crowd
You’d never take me serious – I know that’s not allowed
But when I think about you goodbye practicality
Suddenly I just don’t understand about reality
I hope it’s not going to stay like this
When you’re around I’m not myself
And I don’t understand why you do this to me
When I’m so cool with everyone else
I’m trying to keep things in perspective
I’m trying not to be too obsessive
But when I think about you goodbye practicality
Suddenly I just don’t understand about reality
To hell with the odds and how it's always been
I won’t be realistic and I won’t give in
I’m trying to keep things in perspective
I’m trying not to be too obsessive
But when I think about you goodbye practicality
Suddenly I just don’t understand about reality, reality, reality

I Hate Lying to Mom
02:03

I hate lying to Mom because I know it’s wrong
But whenever I ask to go out All we do it scream and shout
My Mom, she doesn’t agree with me I just, I wanna be free
She always says no, but I gotta go
So now I tell her I’m going to Betsy’s House and that’s how
I get out I get out
I hate lying to Mom but it really isn’t so wrong
When she makes me do it – she drives me to it
So – why should I feel so bad?
I‘m out to night and I should be glad
But I feel guilty as hell and she’ll be able to tell
But whenever I ask to go out All we do it scream and shout
My Mom, she doesn’t agree with me I just, I wanna be free
She always says no, but I gotta go
So now I tell her I’m going to Betsy’s House And that’s how
I get out I get out
I hate lying to Mom because I know it’s wrong

Sad Little Dog

WELL – YOU’RE A SAD LITTLE DOG
CAN I KICK YOU AGAIN
I CERTAINLY WAS CLEVER
GETTING YOU FOR A FRIEND
The best of both worlds I have My cake and eat it too
There were a few rough spots Now everything is smooth
I’m looking out for myself It’s the way to survive
If you’re oversensitive It’s hard to get by
But you can’t have everything Or someone has to lose
It’s nothing personal But I don’t like being used
WELL – YOU’RE A SAD LITTLE DOG
CAN I KICK YOU AGAIN
I CERTAINLY WAS CLEVER
GETTING YOU FOR A FRIEND
I know you don’t understand
It’s how you’ve always been
But it hurts when I’m around you
And I do have other friends
WELL – YOU’RE A SAD LITTLE DOG CAN I KICK YOU AGAIN
I CERTAINLY WAS CLEVER GETTING YOU FOR A FRIEND

Anyone Like Me
01:54

Don’t look too close don’t see too good
You’ll only see more than you should
Don’t wonder why they said those things
Don’t analyze anything
Everyone wants something from you
Nothing’s for free
Why don’t I know
Anyone like me?

I Don't Know

He told me he wanted to see me again
But that’s a mistake I won’t repeat with him
He said it wasn’t really as bad as it seemed
And isn’t he a part of my dreams?
YES, NO, I DON’T KNOW
I DON’T KNOW
WE TRIED IT ONCE BEFORE AND I STILL LOVE HIM EVEN THOUGH
I DON’T KNOW
I said I couldn’t take anymore of his lies
And he promised me things I never used to buy
But he’s got a charm that he uses way too well
And when he’s sincere I can’t tell
YES, NO, I DON’T KNOW
I DON’T KNOW
WE TRIED IT ONCE BEFORE AND I STILL LOVE HIM EVEN THOUGH
I DON’T KNOW
Look at me, I’m here with him tonight
Even though I still don’t know what’s right
But I’m not alone in my thoughts for once at least
I’m going to hold on to this little peace
YES, NO, I DON’T KNOW
I DON’T KNOW
WE TRIED IT ONCE BEFORE AND I STILL LOVE HIM EVEN THOUGH
I DON’T KNOW

You and Dave
02:36
|

I don’t understand – you and Dave exchanged looks
He rolled his eyes and you looked so irritated
You tried to avoid her I saw you slip away
So did she and that’s why you didn’t make it
I have to hand it to you – you took it well
If you were suffering, I couldn’t tell
Then I saw you sitting close – closer than you should have been
Laughing and talking and acting like more than friends
I can’t believe you put her in your car
If you did it for affect you went way to far
I thought more of you – I don’t know why
You only get hurt when you idealize
I shouldn’t have expected so much from you
But I did I cant help it I still do too
I don’t understand – you and Dave exchanged looks
He rolled his eye and you looked so irritated
You tried to avoid her I saw you slip away
So did she and that’s why you didn’t make it
Then I saw you sitting close – closer than you should have been
Laughing and talking and acting like more than friends
I can’t believe you put her in your car
If you did it for affect you went way to far
I shouldn’t have expected so much from you
But I did I cant help it I still do too
You tried to avoid her I saw you slip away
So did she and that’s why you didn’t make it

Prop 2

What were we expecting? That was the last thing on our minds
You could tell we weren’t excited We’ve done that kind of time
Of course you didn’t know That’s why we feel bad for you
We really do care We’d like to do something for you
But we can’t do that it’s out of the question
You can’t understand without being in this position
But the shoe’s not on the other foot
Nor will it ever be
You may think you understand
But you guys will never see
It happened to us once before Now we don’t see them anymore
We won’t let this happen again You said you were my best friend
It’s one of those things that can’t work out We both wanted it to
We want you to know we still feel the same about you

No time to think Too much to do
But that’s OK I can’t think about you
No time to feel When you drive that far
It’s OK that way It doesn’t seem so hard
I CAN’T REMEMBER YOUR FACE ANYMORE
AND I CAN’T REMEMBER YOUR VOICE
LITTLE THINGS NOT ANYTHING
THANK GOD SINCE I HAVE NO CHOICE
Nothing new it happens everyday
Everyone says I’ll get over you
Just a time factor you have to get fast
Be analytical and it goes by fast
I CAN’T REMEMBER YOUR FACE ANYMORE
AND I CAN’T REMEMBER YOUR VOICE
LITTLE THINGS NOT ANYTHING
THANK GOD SINCE I HAVE NO CHOICE

Hello
02:48

Hello are you in there? Sometimes it’s hard to tell
You look like you always do, You always look well
But that doesn’t mean a thing You won’t react to anything
You’ve got a blank stare A mask that’s mighty fine
You must have a reason
But I know you’re aware of everything that goes by
Your face may be closed but you’ve got an eagle eye
Enigmatic understated Cool slate stone
You’ve got great credentials so why are you are you
Are you alone?
Hello are you in there? Sometimes it’s hard to tell
You look like you always do, You always look well
But I know you’re aware of everything that goes by
Your face may be closed but you’ve got an eagle eye
Enigmatic, understated Cool slate stone
You’ve got great credentials so why are you are you
Are you alone?

I can’t wait til I laugh about it And think about it like one of things
It’s so had to get past it now It’s like one of those terrible dreams
You want to talk but who can you tell Nobody wants to hear when you fail
Ask them Feel sorry but you don’t see them anymore
GET TOUGH GROW UP KEEP IT TO YOURSELF
I’VE GOT PROBLEMS OF MY OWN AND I JUST CAN’T HELP I CAN’T HELP
So I’m waiting for the 88 and I can’t help big late
No one would even believe It I don’t know what I’m gonna say iI’m gonna say
I can’t wait til I laugh about it
And think about it like one of things
It’s so had to get past it now
It’s like one of those terrible dreams
You want to talk but who can you tell
Nobody wants to hear when you fail
Ask them T
They feel sorry but you don’t see them anymore
GET TOUGH GROW UP KEEP IT TO YOURSELF
I’VE GOT PROBLEMS OF MY OWN AND
I JUST CAN’T HELP I CAN’T HELP
So I won’t tell them – I’ll manage somehow
I just wish I could laugh about it now
THIRD SONG
You walk around with that don’t give a shit air But You just don’t care
You’re not in danger of impressing anyone
Hell will freeze before you need someone
Keep it up while it’s still affordable x2
It won’t be lasting long
Before it’s too late you’d better give them a break
You’ll find that you’re not so strong
You don’t like much of what you see No one does, that’s reality
We make do and we don’t wait We always settle for less
So join the world, get a girl and forget about the rest
I had ideals and standards that I set
A lot of high ones that no one ever met
But other people have better things to do
They’re not going to hold their breath for you
Keep it up while it’s still affordable x2
It won’t be lasting long
Before it’s too late you’d better give them a break
You’ll find that you’re not so strong
