My Name Is Jonas
My name is Jonas
I'm carrying the wheel
Thanks for all you've shown us
But this is how we feel

Come sit next to me, pour yourself some tea
Just like grandma made when we couldn't find sleep
Things were better then, once but never again
We've all left the den, let me tell you bout it

Choo-choo train left right on time
A ticket cost only your mind
The driver said, "Hey man, we go all the way."
Of course we were willing to pay

My name is Wepeel 
Got a box full of your toys
They're fresh out of batteries
But you're still making noise, making noise

Tell me what to do now the tank is dry
Now this wheel is flat and you know what else
Guess what I received in the mail today
Words of deep concern from my little brother

The building's not going as he planned
The foreman has injured his hand
The dozer will not clear a path
The driver swears he learned his math 
The workers are going home, workers are going home
The workers are going home, the workers are going home - yeah

The workers are going home, the workers are going home
The workers are going home - yeah, yeah, yeah

My name is Jonas

No One Else
My girl's got a big mouth, with it she blabbers a lot
She laughs at most everything whether it's funny or not
And if you see her tell her its over now

I want a girl who will laugh for no one else
When I'm away she puts her make-up on the shelf
When I'm away she never leaves the house
I want a girl who laughs for no one else

My girl's got eyeballs in the back of her head
She looks around and around - you know it makes me sad to see her like that
Please don't believe her, she says that for anyone
And if you see her tell her its her head

I want a girl who will laugh for no one else
When I'm away she puts her make-up on the shelf
When I'm away she never leaves the house
I want a girl who laughs for no one else
And if you see her tell her its over now

And if you see her tell her its over now
And if you watch a girl - watch a girl
Watcha, watcha, watcha, watch out

I want a girl who will laugh for no one else
When I'm away she puts her make-up on the shelf
When I'm away she never leaves the house
I want a girl who laughs for no one else
No one else - yeah

The World Has Turned And Left Me Here
The world has turned and left me here
Just where I was before you appeared
And in your place an empty space
Has filled the void behind my face
I just made love with your sweet memory
One thousand times in my head
You said you loved it more than ever, you said
You remain turned away, turning further every day

The world has turned and left me here
Just where I was before you appeared
And in your place an empty space
Has filled the void behind my face
I talked for hours to your wallet photograph
And you just listened
You laughed enchanted by my intellect, or maybe you didn't
You remain turned away, turning further every day

The world has turned and left me here
Just where I was before you appeared
And in your place an empty space
Has filled the void behind my face

You remain turned away, turning further every day
The world has turned and left me here
Just where I was before you appeared
And in your place an empty space
Has filled the void behind my face
The world has turned and left me here
Just where I was before you appeared
And in your place an empty space
Has filled the void behind my

Do you believe what I sing now
Do you believe what I sing now
Do you believe it

Buddy Holly
What's with these homies dissin' my girl - why do they gotta front
What did we ever do to these guys that made them so violent
Ooh, ooh - but you know I'm yours
Ooh, ooh - and I know you're mine
Ooh, ooh - and that's why

Ooh, wee, ohh - I look just like Buddy Holly
Oh, oh - and you're Mary Tyler Moore
I don't care what they say about us anyway
I don't care about that

Don't you ever fear, I'm always near
I know that you need help
Your tongue is twisted, your eyes are slit
You need a guardian
Ooh, ooh - and you know I'm yours
Ooh, ooh - and I know you're mine
Ooh, ooh - and that's why

Ooh, wee, ohh - I look just like Buddy Holly
Oh, oh - and you're Mary Tyler Moore
I don't care what they say about us anyway
I don't care about that, I don't care about that

Bang, bang - knocked on the door
Another big bang, you're down on the floor
Oh no, what do we do
Don't look now but I lost my shoe
I can't run and I can't kick
What's a matter babe are you feeling sick
What's a matter, what's a matter, what's a matter, you
What's a matter, babe, I'm feeling blue
That's why, that's why

Ooh, wee, ohh - I look just like Buddy Holly
Oh, oh - and you're Mary Tyler Moore
I don't care what they say about us anyway
I don't care about that, I don't care about that
I don't care about that, I don't care about that

Undone - The Sweater Song
Hey bud - how we doin' man
All right
It's been a while man, life's so rad
This band's my favorite man, don't ya love 'em

Oh man, you wanna beer
All right
Oh man, hell bro, this is best man
I'm so glad we're all back together and stuff, this is great man

Yeah
Oh man, its gonna be the best

Oh me, baby

Hear me, know me
If you want to destroy my sweater
Pull this thread as I walk away

Hey what's up
Not much
Um, did you hear about the party
Yeah
I think I'm gonna go, but my friends don't really wanna go
Can I get a ride

Oh no, it go, it gone, bye-bye - bye
Do I, I think, I sink and I die
If you want to destroy my sweater - pull
Pull this thread as I walk away - as I walk away
Watch me unravel, I'll soon be naked - lying on the floor
Lying on the floor, I've come undone

If you want to destroy my sweater - whoa, whoa, whoa
Pull this thread as I walk away - as I walk away
Watch me unravel, I'll soon be naked - lying on the floor
Lying on the floor, I've come undone

I don't want to destroy your sweater
Let's be friends and just walk away
Watch me unravel, I'll soon be naked - lying on the floor
Lying on the floor, I've come undone

Surf Wax America
Sea is foaming like a bottle of beer
The wave is coming but I ain't got no fear
I'm waxing down so that I'll go real fast
I'm waxing down because it's really a blast
I'm going surfing cos I don't like the pace
I'm bailing out because I hate the race
Of rats that run round and round in a maze
I'm goin' surfin', goin' surfin'
You take your car to work, I'll take my board
And when you're out of fuel I'm still afloat

My buddies and their honies all come along
They seem invincible, it takes 'em along
The sea is rolling like a thousand pound keg
We're goin' surfin', we're goin' surfin'
You take your car to work, I'll take my board
And when you're out of fuel I'm still afloat
You take your car to work, I'll take my board
And when you're out of fuel I'm still afloat

All along the undertow is strengthening its hold
I never thought it'd come to this, now I can never go home
All along the undertow is strengthening its hold
I never thought it'd come to this, now I can never go home

You take your car to work, I'll take my board
And when you're out of fuel, I'm still afloat
All along the undertow is strengthening its hold
I never thought it'd come to this, now I can never go home

You take your car to work, I'll take my board
And when you're out of fuel I'm still afloat
You take your car, I'll take my board
You take your car, I'll take my board - let's go

Say It Ain't So
Oh yeah, all right

Somebody's Heine is crowding my icebox
Somebody's cold one is giving me chills
Guess I'll just close my eyes

Oh yeah, all right
Feels good inside

Flip on the tele, wrestle with Jimmy
Something is bubbling behind my back
The bottle is ready to go

Say it ain't so 
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so 
My love is a life-taker

I can't confront you, I never could do
That which might hurt you to try and be cool
When I say this way
Is a waterslide away from you that takes you further everyday
So be cool

Say it ain't so 
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so 
My love is a life-taker

Dear Daddy, I write you in spite of years of silence
You cleaned up, found Jesus, things are good, or so I hear
This bottle of Stevens awakens ancient feelings
Like father, stepfather, this son is drowning in the blood
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life-taker

In The Garage
I've got Dungeon Master's Guide
I've got twelve sided die
I've got Kid Pride
And Nightcrawler too
Waiting there for me, yes I do, I do

I've got posters on the wall
My favorite rock group Kiss
I got Ace Freely
I've got Peter Chris
Waiting there for me, yes I do, I do

In the garage I feel safe
No one cares about my ways
In the garage where I belong
No one hears me sing this song
In the garage

I got 'lectric guitar
I play my stupid songs
I write these stupid words
And I love everyone
Waiting there for me, yes I do, I do

In the garage I feel safe
No one cares about my ways
In the garage where I belong
No one hears me sing this song
In the garage, in the garage

In the garage I feel safe
No one cares about my ways
In the garage where I belong
No one hears me sing this song
In the garage I feel safe
No one laughs about my ways
In the garage where I belong
No one hears me, no one hears me
No one hears me, no one hears me
No one hears me sing this song

Holiday
Let's go away for a while
You and I, to a strange and distant land
Where they speak no word of truth
But we don't understand anyway

Holiday - far away, to stay
On a holiday - far away
Lets go today, in a heartbeat
Heartbeat, heartbeat

Don't bother to pack your bags or your map
We won't need them where we're going
We're going where the wind is blowing
Not knowing where we're going to stay

Holiday - far away, to stay
On a holiday - far away, to stay
On a holiday - far away
Lets go today, in a heartbeat
Heartbeat, heartbeat, heartbeat, heartbeat

We will write a postcard to our friends and family in free verse
We will write a postcard to our friends and family in free verse
We will write a postcard to our friends and family in free verse

Heartbeat, heartbeat
Let's go away for a while
You and I, to a strange and distant land
Where they speak no word of truth
But we don't understand anyway

Holiday - far away, to stay
On a holiday - far away, to stay
On a holi
Let's go away, let's go way
Let's go away, let's go way
In a heartbeat

Only In Dreams
You can't resist her, she's in your bones
She is your marrow and your ride home
You can't avoid her, she's in the air - in the air
In between molecules of oxygen and carbon dioxide

Only in dreams you'll see what it means
Reach out our hands, hold on to hers
But when we wake it's all been erased
And so it seems, only in dreams

You walk up to her, ask her to dance
She says, "Hey baby, I just might take a chance."
You say, "It's a good thing that you float in the air." - in the air
That way there's no way I will crush your pretty toenails into a thousand pieces

Only in dreams you'll see what it means
Reach out our hands, hold on to hers
But when we wake it's all been erased
And so it seems, only in dreams
Only in dreams, only in dreams
Only in dreams, only in dreams
Only in dreams, only in dreams
