Under These Rocks And Stones God Made Me
(Chantal Kreviazuk and Chris Burke Gaffney)

I'm jaded and you're beautiful
I'd deluded and envious of you
You're carin' that I'm hurtin'
But I'm laughing 'cause I'm lyin'
And you believe what I say to be true

This is the way God made me!

No self-relience
No social skills
You're confident and
You express yourself so well

You're learned degrees upon your wall
I'm jealous
No invitations to the ball

This is the way God made me!
This is the way God made me!

No self-esteem
You're picture perfect
You walk about so contented
The trees call out your name
You're clean
And I'm so ignorant
I'm basic and I'm jaded
My excuses are so lame
This is the way God made me!
And if God made me to change I don't know
This is the way God made me!
This is the way God made me!
No excuse, it's just the way god made me
This is the way God made me!
It's just the way I am
It's just the way I am
It's just the way I am

Under These Rocks And Stones - Original Cover Surrounded
(Chantal Kreviazuk)

I was there when you
Shone as bright as Bethleham from afar
I was there when you were
Young and strong and perverted
And everything that makes you feel like a star
Oh you were a star

I was there and I swear to God
And on my mother's grave
On everything I have
Or ever will embrace
I was there and
I saw it with my own two eyes

And now it's all around me
It's all around me
I'm surrounded
Now it's all around me
You surround me like a circle

I was there c'mon and tell me
I wasn't worth sticking it out for

Well I was there and
I know I was worth it
Cause if I wasn't worth it
That makes me worse off than you are
It's all around me
It's all around me
I'm surrounded
Now it's all around me
You surround me like a circle

But don't you lose sight of me now
Don't lose sight of me now

Well I was there when they dropped the bomb
Ya' know I remember the bomb
And I still hear the bomb
And I still fight the bomb
You know I still fear the bomb
You know I still hate the bomb
Sometimes I still get the call

But don't you lose sight of me now
Don't lose sight of me now
You know you're all around me
You're all around me
I'm surrounded
Don't you lose sight of me now
You know you're all around me
You're all around me
I'm surrounded
Don't you lose sight of me now
You know you're all around me
You're all around me
I'm surrounded
Don't you lose sight of me now
You know you're all around me
You're all around me
Don't you lose sight of me now
You surround me like a circle

I'm surrounded
Like a circle
Around me

10 Don't Be Good
(Chantal Kreviazuk)

I don't know when you learn it
But when you learn it
You learn it fast
They're the ones who love to learn
They're not fast, they're nice guys
The finish last

They're waiting and wondering
Where did I go wrong

Don't be good
Don't be good
Don't be good to me
Don't be good
Though you should
That won't work you see

Well I don't know when I learned it
But when I learned it
I learned it fast
They're the ones who'd love to love me
They're not fast, they're nice guys
They finish last

They're waiting and wondering
Wondering where did I go wrong

Don't be good
Don't be good
Don't be good to me
Don't be good
Though you should
That won't work you see

They're waiting and wondering
Waiting and wondering
Wondering where did I go wrong
Waiting and wondering
Waiting and wondering
Wondering

Waiting and wondering
Wondering where did I go wrong
Don't be good
Don't be good
Don't be good to me
Don't be good
Though you should
That won't work for me
Waiting and wondering
Waiting and wondering
Wondering where did I go wrong
Don't be good
Don't be good
Don't be good to me
Don't be good
Though you should
That won't work for me

So don't be good to me
You're so good to me
Don't be good to me
Good to me
Good to me
You're so good to me

9 Believer
(Chantal Kreviazuk)

I carry my microphone with me
Everywhere I go
It makes for a very good dead weight
In case of an emergency
In case I need to break your face
In case I need you to be dead

Who do you think you are
Who do I think you are
I know who you are
And it's hard to believe that
God made you and me
With the same hands

Sit?
I tell my doggie to sit
But I am not a dog
You make the animal in me
Want to come out all over you

Who do you think you are
Who do I think you are
I know who you are
And it's hard to believe that
God made you and me
With the same hands
With the same hands

Who do you think you are
Who do I think you are
I know...
Who do you think you are
Who do I think you are
I know who you are
And it's hard to believe that
God made you and me
With the same hands
With the same hands
With the same hands

And it's hard to believe that
I'm still a believer

8 Grace
(Chantal Kreviazuk)

Please don't go
I cannot breathe you in
Your air is too thick for me
And it makes my lungs sting

Please don't go
I cannot walk beside
Think I'll stay a mile
'Cause I don't need you crampin' my style

You still have grace
You still have mercy
To keep kissing my face
Even though I'm wrong

Please don't go
Without you I am weak
Find myself drinkin' and sinking
And seeking

Please don't go
Sometimes it gets so cold
but I'd rather grap for a blanket
Instead of just walkin' into your comfort zone

You still have grace
You still have mercy sweet mercy
To keep kissing my face
Even though I'm wrong wrong wrong
I know I've wrong you
I know I've hurt you so many times
I hope I haven't scarred you

You still have grace
You still have mercy mercy
To keep kissing my face
Even though I'm wrong wrong wrong

You still have grace
You still have mercy mercy
To keep kissing my face
Even though I'm wrong wrong wrong wrong

If you keep kissing my face
I'll no longer do you wrong wrong wrong

7 Wayne
(Chantal Kreviazuk)

I'll be the girl with the long blonde hair
And the really pale skin
If you care
I sit in the corner of the room
Crosslegged and quiet
Filled with doom
I never ever liked the smell in here
It's cold and wet
And reeks of beer
The lights are turned out permenantly
But that's ok
'Cause I don't want to see
Wayne
Wait for me
Take me up in your hot air balloon
And feed me cotton candy
Wayne
Pray for me
'Cause I'll be there in a couple of years
Until then-wait for me

Who's the strange lady with the big silly hair
And berries on her face
Dressed like a pear
Do I really have to hold her hand
Pretend she's my mommy
Your wife and man
When I know you're not my mommy

It's crowded and I feel lost in here
I'm trying to find
A familliar fear
I look everywhere but I just can't see
There's not anything that
Reminds me of me

Wayne
Wait for me
Take me up in your hot air balloon
And feed me cotton candy
Wayne
Pray for me
'Cause I'll be there in a couple of years
Until then-wait for me

You make me feel as fresh as flowers
Under these rocks and stones

Wayne
Wait for me
Take me up in your hot air balloon
And feed me cotton candy
Wayne
Pray for me
'Cause I'll be there in a couple of years
Until then-wait for me

Take me up in your hot air balloon
And feed me cotton candy

Wayne
Pray for me
'Cause I'll be there in a couple of years
Until then-wait for me

6 Imaginary Friend
(Chantal Kreviazuk)

It scares me to speak my mind
It might sound self-absorbed
I don't say half of what I think
I wonder what I'm thinking for

I'm smelling dead flowers
And listening to the walls again
I'm drinking from a leaky faucet
And writing with this dried up pen
Wish I still had my imaginary friend

Who needs to listen
Well... what do I have to sell
Everyone's just waitin' for their own turn
Kind of like show and tell

I'm smelling dead flowers
And listening to the walls again
I'm drinking from a leaky faucet
And writing with this dried up pen
I wish I still had my imaginary friend

Someone to listen
Someone to laugh
Someone to cry
At the right times
Oh I'm smelling dead flowers
And listening to the walls again
I'm drinking from a leaky faucet
And writing with this dried up
Oh I'm smelling dead flowers
And listening to the walls again
I'm drinking from a leaky faucet
And writing with this dried up pen
I wish I still had my imaginary friend

I wish I still had my imaginary friend
And I would call him up
But I don't remember his name

5 Hands
(Chris Burke Gaffney)

There's a man outside my door tonight
He cries for help
He sings a pleading song
Well times are tough for everyone
Gotta hold on to what I got
And just kind of cruise along

Well I do want to be helpful
But it's cold and I'm told
You can't be too careful

Out of the mouth of a mother
Into the hands of a brother
Into the heart of a lover
And out of the hands of another
Du-du du-du du

You can never tell who your neighbour is
Or what he's doin' at night
Or who his friends are
Well you don't know where he's from
Or where he's been
Or who he knows you know
You can't be too careful
These days

I do want to be helpful
Whoa
And oh but it's cold and I'm told
He might just be the devil

Out of the mouth of a mother
Into the hands of a brother
Du-du du-du du
Into the heart of a lover
And out of the hands of another
Du-du du-du du

Well I don't take chances
And I don't take the time to see
And I don't take nothing
From nobody
No way-not me
Du-du du-du du
Du-du-du du-du du
Out of the mouth of a mother
Into the hands of a brother
Du-du du-du du
Into the heart of a lover
And out of the hands of another
Du-du du-du du

Out of the mouth of a mother
Whoa
Into the hands of a brother
Du-du du-du du
Into the heart of a lover
And into the eyes of a child
Into the ears of a child
Du-du du-du du
Into the heart of a child
Du-du du-du du
Into the heart of a child
Du-du du-du du
Into the heart of a child

4 Disagree
(Chantal Kreviazuk and Chris Burke Gaffney)

Tell me what you want from me
Well I'm not saying I'll believe
I could solve your mystery
But I would rather disagree

You say the truth will set me free
So how come you're comin' down on me
You think it's real if you can see
Well I don't take to that philosophy

'Cause you know I would I would I would I would I
I would I would I would I would I
I would I would I would I would I
Yeah I would rather disgree

Do you see yourself inside of me
And do I take away your miseries
Am I just one more catastohpe
Yah I always say what I don't mean

'Cause you know I would I would I would I would I
I would I would I would I would I
I would I would I would I would I
Yeah I would rather disgree
I would rather disagree

Don't feed me I'm full!
You know I'll starve before I fall
Don't bleed me
Don't bleed me

Even if you're right
Even if you're wrong
Even if you're right
Even if you're wrong
Oh I would rather disagree
Oh I would rather disagree
I would rather disagree
Even if you're wrong

3 Co-Dependent
(Chris Burke Gaffney)

When I go swimming in your intellect
The waters so shallow
And the dialect is so phony
But I each it up like bologna
I can't get enough

Well I should end it
But I defend it
Well I don't recommend it
'Cause I'm your co-dependent

When you go fishing for a compliment
It's so so obvious
But I can't help it
So put up with it
'Cause you're my habit
And I just can't quit

Well I should end it
But I defend it
Well I don't recommend it
'Cause I'm your co-dependent

The world keeps spinning
Lucifer keeps sinning
The joker keeps grinning
But I need a new beginning

Well I should end it
But I defend it
Well I don't recommend it
'Cause I'm your co-dependent
Well I should end it
But I defend it
Well I don't recommend it
Baby be my co-dependent

2 Green Apples (Goo's Song)
(Chantal Kreviazuk)

You're toast and jam
And you're cotton candy
You're double rainbows beside a setting sun
You're wood burning outside
There's a fire growin'
You're sweet as green apples
You must be the one

You bring me to the heart of a golden man
You bring me to the natural truth
You take me to a solid hollow
And keep me sailing the ocean of youth

That's why you're toast and jam
And you're cotton candy
You're double rainbows beside a setting sun
You're wood burning outside
There's a fire growin'
You're sweet as green apples
You must be the one

So take me to an altar of diamonds
And run with me through sheets of jungle rain
Show me your manly mystery
And let me heal your beautiful pain

Be my island in crowds of faces
My oasis
Be there

Lead me to the holy water
Introduce me to the place you are from
Whereever you go you know I will follow
So take me and I will come (I will come)

You're toast and jam
And you're cotton candy
You're double rainbows beside a setting sun
You're wood burning outside
There's a fire growin'
You're sweet as green apples
You must be the one

Yeah, you're toast and jam
And you're cotton candy
You're double rainbows beside a setting sun
You're wood burning outside
There's a fire growin'
You're sweet as green apples
You must be the one

You're sweet as green apples
You must be the one

1 Boot
(Chantal Kreviazuk, David Immergluck, Michael Urbano and David Faragher)

Never been here before
Never opened up this door
But I got a feelin' it's just like the others

Never heard him laugh before
Never felt him feel before
But I got a feeling it's just like the others

He's got a big boot
He's got a big hand
He's got a big fist
To put me down

Here we go again

Never heard him lie before
Never heard him cry before
But I got a feeling it's just like the others

Never heard him dream before
Never felt it before
But I got a feeling it's just like the others

He's got a big boot
And he's got a big hand
And he's got a big fist
To put me down
He's got a big mouth
And he's got big words
And he's got a big knife
To cut me down

Is it all because of the fall
But it's not my fault
How long
How long-how long
Do I have to long

Never been here before
Never walked through this door
But I got a feeling it won't be like the others
Even though he's got a big boot
And he's got a big hand
And he's got a big fist
To put me down
He's got a big mouth
And he's got a lot of big words
And he's got a big knife
To put me put me down

Actions Without Love
(Chantal Kreviazuk)

He ran a marathon
He didn't quite finish
He didn't cross the finsh line
Actions without love

It never really crossed his mind
He sure got the accent down
And he sure can swoon the ladies
And ya know one day he'll learn
Actions without love

The whole bloody language
She pulled out her cheque book
She asked what the date was
She had to double check
Actions without love

Actions without Love

She had to have an audience
Actions without love
Actions without love

Love!
