Broken Down
Written by: Newsom/Willis/Hale
I wake up in the morning; Brew some coffee, grab my shoes
I find myself yawning cause I spent last night thinking
about you
And all the things you put me through; when you go with other guys
You try to tell me that you love me but it's just another lie
Chorus: That's why my heart is breaking; Breaking down
That's why my heart is breaking; Breaking down
You bring those other guys around; it messes with my head
It breaks more than my heart; the last tried to break my
legs
Why do you do these things to me; hurt me like you do
No one can hurt me and thrill me as much as you
Chorus
I've made a decision; I think it's time to let you go
Other fish and all of that; I just thought I'd let you
know
I'm not your puppet now; you can't pull my strings around
No satisfaction from the fact that I'm broken down
Chorus
That's Why I Wrote You This
Song
Written by: David Willis
You're on my mind and it reminds me of the time that we
first met and set the way we wanted to be
You were so kind; makes me rewind to the time that we
kissed on the beach in the sand holding hands
But I don't remember much
I was drinking way too much
But I know it won't be long
That's why I wrote you this song
I want to change your mind; make you think of all the
times that we had; the good and the bad
But I know it won't be long
That's why I wrote you this song
I've been screaming in the streets
I've been tripping over my feet
But I know it won't be long
That's why I wrote you this song
That's why I wrote you this song
That's why I wrote you this song
That's why I wrote you this song
She Says
Written by: David Willis
1-2-3-4
She says I'm going to be a loser for the rest of my life
She says she doesn't want me to be but she always has to
be right
She just doesn't get it; She just don't understand
She says she loves me but she hates my band
But I don't care what she thinks
Because she says a lot of things that just don't make any
sense
She says I'm crazy cause I listen to the Dickens and the
Mr. T Experience
She says stupid things just to see my surprise
She says she can tell when I'm lying looking in my eyes
Well I guess its time to end this song
Like This
Moonlight Serenade
Written by: Willis/Newsom
I wrote you a song just yesterday
But when I saw you I didn't know what to say
So I thought I'd go to your house when the night came
Then I'd sing to you this Moonlight Serenade
I wrote you a song about love and things
With my guitar in my car I went to your house to sing
But when I got there your window was shut
All I was trying to do was to wake you up
Chorus:
Three bar chords and a melody
I'm sitting outside your house underneath your tree
Throwing pennies at your window to see if you're awake
And try to sing to you, your Moonlight Serenade
I wrote a song to apologize
For the window I broke to our surprise
And in this song I wrote to you
Waking you up was all I was trying to do
Chorus
Chorus
The Kudzu Song
Written by: Newsom/Willis
There's a plant out there that we all love
It was sent to us by God above
It grows in the winter, It grows in the spring
It's goal is to cover everything
It's a nuisance to each and all
I just can't remember what it's called
There's a plant out there that we all hate
God sent here to set us straight
It grows the summer, grows in the fall
All it wants is to cover all
It makes me so damn tired
What that plant that's got me wired
There's a plant out there that killed the world
Choked every boy, choked every girl
Greenpeace even hates the thing
Now it's covered everything
It's growing on my grave
The entire has been enslaved by
Windshield Blues
Written by: Willis
I don't know what to do
When it comes to you
You don't lie to me
But you don't exactly tell me the truth
Tell me now, what I'm going to do?
I don't know, what I'm going to do?
I know it's not your fault
You're just pissed cause you got caught
I just don't give a damn no more
Tell me now, what I'm going to do?
No one cares what I'm going to do.
Should I go to his house
Should I bash his windshield out?
I don't know what to do no more,
But I know I'll never trust you (oi!)
I know it must have been
Somewhere near the end
Instead of going out with me
You went out with your ex-boyfriend
Tell me now, what I'm going to do?
Who gives a fuck, what I'm going to do?
I'll go home alone
Never call you on the phone
I don't know what to do no more
But I know I'll never trust you (oi!)
Goth Girl
Written by: Newsom/Willis
She sits at the red light painting her fingernails black
A shawl that looks like spider webs run down her back
She thinks NIN are gods cause Reznor's her man
She hates SNL and hates Chris Kattan
Chorus:
She's a goth girl
She's a goth girl
She's a goth girl
She's a goth girl
She comes from a middle class whitebred family
Daddy's a doctor and mommy's an attorney
She's got no reason to be depressed
When she puts on that old black dress
Chorus
She's got 24 tubes of black lipstick in her purse
She's so scary looking I had trouble writing this third
verse
She's got these evil fingernails
And a hairdo that came straight from hell
You say you dress this way to be unique
But you look like every goth girl on your street
Chorus
Emo Schmeemo
Written by: Newsom/Willis/Batsford
I like girls but I might be gay
I drink my soy milk everyday
I have a chinchilla for a pet
I wish I was the guy from Minor Threat
I sound really whiny when I sing
I masturbate while listening to Promise Ring
I don't get girls but I wish I did
I really love the song from the Karate Kid
Emo is sweeping the nation
Lisbon to the Nile River Basin
Leading to emotional devestation
To be or not to be
If being means sounding like Morrisey
I'm only happy when it rains
My pillowcase is covered with teardrop stains
I want to be the king of emo rock
With my Mossimo shirt and my argyle socks
The Get-Up Kids, and Jets to Brazil
I want to kill, I want to kill
Blameless Song
Written by: Newsom/Willis
It's not my fault you are so pretty
It's not my fault you are so vain
It's not my fault your own self image
Is driving you insane
It's not my fault you work at Hardee's
And you struggle to stay alive
It's not my fault you live in a van
Down by the riverside
It's not my fault you are a loser
It's not my fault you have no friends
It's not my fault It's not my fault
So why should I have to make amends
Devolution
Written By: Newsom/Willis
Every morning in this old town
Brick buildings tearing down
I know it won't be long
before they burn down city hall
They were mad about how they used it
So they blamed it on the music
But our music is the same
Because some things never change
Another thing I'm hating
is the old folks complaining
about the fifties
when they did the same things as me
They were just a younger version
They made that new conversion
The proof is in what they made
Should have known that some things never change
Chorus:
They made a revelation
About my generation
Killin me with the revolution
Telling me what you should do
And what you should say
In their own special way
But that's OK
Because some things never change
And if I live just like my parents
They'd find some way I swear it
To put the blame on me
Cause it's not my fault you see
Cause I'm the same as you
And you're the same as me too
Don't know who should get the blame
Because some things never change
Chorus
Bridge:
I'm sick of living in this same ole' world
Where everything stays the same
Just once in a while I wish to God
That something around here would change
For the better
But the rain keeps getting wetter
And the times are getting worse
From the cradle to the hearse
And the old folks still are angry
But it's not my fault they made me
The way I am today
Because some things never change
Chorus
Viva La Bob
Written by: Newsom/Willis
He cuts his grass in the same straight lines
And he always trims the hedges
His hair's always parted right
Clean cut around the edges
His mini-van is nice and white
No one could be cleaner
He'll pour a glass of piss warm gin
and talk about Korea
But deep down inside Bob wants to run away
He's got a bus ticket to Vegas and he's going to use it
someday
And all around on the bus ride, people will be cheering
Bob sits back with a smile on his face cause this is what
he's hearing
Chorus:
Viva La Bob, Viva La Bob
Viva La Bob, Viva La Bob
When Bob goes down to the city of lights
He'll be a roulette spinner
He's got twenty-thou on 48 red
And he knows he's going to be a winner
He won't cash it in till he spins again
Got his eye on 23 black
He don't worry bout the gamblers odds
He'll double his money back
As the roulette wheel spins Bob wants to get away
He's got a bus ticket to Vegas and he'll use one day
The gamblers cry and the women sigh as it rolls up 23
Bob walks off with a smile on his as everyone starts to
sing
Chorus
Bob is pushing his lawnmower
When he suddenly falls over
His nostrils fill the sour smell of
Freshly cut up clover
His eyes roll back and he remembers
The chips on 23 black
The ticket rests in his pocket as
He has a heart attack
As they strap him to the stretcher Bob wants to run away
He's got a bus ticket to Vegas and he's going to use it
someday
His mind is somewhere else as they wheel him to his room
Bob lays there with a smile on his face as he hears this
loud voice boom
Chorus
Chorus
Part II
Written by: Newsom/Willis
Blood in the textbook pages, blood upon the walls
Shotgun shells in the stairwells ring echoes in the hall
The library lays in silence but there's no one reading
here
Beneath the of innocence lies the soul of a killer
Pencils, papers, lockers open, stained with crimson red
School bells ring in mourning over the bodies of the dead
Beside the shotgun trigger lies lifeless fingers still
And underneath a smile life lays broken
Chorus:
Current trends are worrying me
Never know when you're going to see a shooting spree
Never know if you are going to be the one
Staring down the barrel of a gun
Someone didn't like Mondays do you remember when?
Students die and Parents cry it's all on CNN
Along with two pictures - two faded yearbooks
Who do you suspect - Who do you suspect?
Chorus
Too Happy
Written by: Eric Newsom
You'll never see us in the Got Milk ads cause we don't
need the calcium
You'll never see us in Tiger Beat telling little girls
that we love them
We won't be knighted by the queen, we'll never be on Mr.
Bean, and we'll never sound like Korn
Because we're too happy for hardcore
You'll never see us on the silver screen cause we're not
that photogenic
If they ever do a life and times of us we won't be in it
We'll never be the Moody Blues, We'll never have the
right to choose, and we'll never sound like Korn
Because we're too happy for hardcore
Too happy for Hardcore, I will say it again
Too happy for Hardcore
You'll never see us with Forest Gump and the chocolate
box of life
You'll never see us in surgery going under the knife
We'll never live in adobe houses, we'll never be
pocketmouses, and we'll never sound like Korn
Because we're too happy for hardcore
Too happy for Hardcore, I will say it again
Too happy for Hardcore, Even though all are friends
Say that we should be hevier every time they come to hear
us
But me I'd rather be jst like the Mr. T Experience
Be happy poppy, o' so cute I'll tell you once more
I'm too happy for hardcore
Too happy for Hardcore, I will say it again
Too happy for Hardcore
Regrets
Written By: David Willis
Chorus:
You're going to regret the day you left me
Gonna regret the day you left me
Gonna regret the day you walked out of my door
Regret the day you found another
Regret the day you shunned my love and
Regret like you've never done before
What did I do
It wasn't like I was stalking you
It was I thought that I was in love
I hope this makes you mad
The fact that this doesn't make me sad
And you're not the one I'm thinking of
You were a waste of my time
Oh yeah and I did mind
The stupid things that you used to do
That was a crappy part of my life
Thank god you're not my wife
Because I hate you
Chorus
I hate to say we're done because you were my one and only
I want to get out of here can't see through the tears I'm
cryin well you know I'm lying
Chorus
Disguises
Written by: Newsom/Willis
He wishes she was true to him
She tries to get through to him
And if someone doesn't tell the truth to them
They just might both explode
Cause he's full of testosterone
But she'd rather just stay at home
And so they sit there alone
And it goes on down the road
He carries her books to class
She watches the other guys walk past
She wonders how long their love will last
And he gets jealous
He asks her if she wants to break up
She says she'd rather make up
And she says she'll never take up
With any other fellows
Chorus:
He's so blind.... And she's overbearing
She won't change her mind and he doesn't like the clothes
she's wearing
But despite all of that, they cling onto the fact that
the other realizes
Life goes on wearing disguises
Now he's got 2 girls on the side
She's got a boyfriend that's she trying to hide
And deep down inside
They both want to end it
But he doesn't know how to start
And she doesn't want to break his heart
Their lovelessness tears them apart
The relationship is never ending
Chorus
F.U.
Written by: David Willis
If I ever said I love you
Well I know it was a lie
If I ever said I couldn't live with out you
Don't worry I'm getting by
I've already got you out of my mind
Why can't you forget me
Your self-denial gone ary
Just let it be
Get it through your head
I just don't give a damn
I never cared for you
I guess you'll never understand
I know you think about me
Every night and every day
Please stop
Looking at me that way
Chorus:
I never loved you and I probably never will
And I don't have the feeling that you wanted me to feel
And I'm so sick of you complaining about everything I do
So forget you
Forget you
too
