Tired Of Sex

I'm tired 
So tired
I'm tired of having sex (so tired) 
I'm spread 
So thin 
I don't know who I am (who I am) 
Monday night I'm making Jen 
Tuesday night I'm making Lyn 
Wednesday night I'm making Catherine 
Oh why can't I be making love come true?
Whoa 
I'm beat 
Beet red 
Ashamed of what I said (what I said) 
I'm sorry 
Here I go
I know I'm a sinner but I can't say no (say no) 
Thursday night I'm making Denise 
Friday night I'm making Sharise
Saturday night I'm making Louise 
So why can't I be making love come true?

Tonight I'm down on my knees 
Tonight I'm begging you please
Tonight tonight please
So why can't I be making love come true?

Getchoo

This is beginning to hurt 
This is beginning to get serious
It used to be a game
Now it's a crying shame 
'cause you don't wanna play around no more

Sometimes I push too hard 
Sometimes you fall and skin your knee 
I never meant to do
All that I've done to you
Please baby say it's not too late

To getchoo, uh huh
Getchoo, uh huh 
Getchoo, uh huh 
Getchoo getchoo getchoo
Uh huh 

You know this is breaking me up 
You think that I'm some kind of freak, uh huh
But if you come back to me 
Then you will surely see 
That i'm just fooling around 

Chorus 

I can't believe (I can't believe) 
What you've done to me
What I did to them
You've done to me, whoa

Chorus 

This is beginning to hurt

No Other One

My girl's a liar 
But I'll stand beside her 
She's all I've got and I don't want to be alone 
My girl don't see me 
When she's with my friends
She's all I've got and I don't want to be alone

No, there is no other one 
No, there is no other one 
I can't have any other one 
Though I would now I never could with one 

All of the drugs she does
Scare me real good 
She's got a tattoo and two pet snakes
Nobody knows me like her 
Nobody knows her like me
We're all we've got and we don't want to be alone 

Chorus 

Chorus 

Why Bother?

know I should get next to you
You got a look that made me think you're cool 
But it's just sexual attraction 
Not something real 
So I'd rather keep whackin 

Why bother 
It's gonna hurt me
It's gonna kill when you desert me
This happened to me twice before 
It won't happen to me anymore 

I've known a lotta girls before
What's the harm in knowing one more? 
Maybe we could even get together 
Maybe you could break my heart next summer 

Chorus 

It's a crying shame I'm all alone 
Not with you - nor her - nor anyone 
Won't you knock me on my head
Crack it open let me outta here 

Chorus 

Why bother - it's gonna hurt me 

Across the Sea

You are eighteen year old girl 
Who live in small city of Japan
You heard me on the radio
About one year ago 
And you wanted to know
All about me, and my hobbies
My favorite food and my birthday

Why are you so far away from me? 
I need help and you're way across the sea
I could never touch you
I think it would be wrong 
I've got your letter 
You've got my song 

They don't make stationary like this where I'm from 
So fragile 
So refined 
So I sniff (so I sniff) 
And i lick (and I lick) 
Your envelope and fall to little pieces every time 
I wonder what clothes you wear to school 
I wonder how you decorate your room 
I wonder how you touch yourself 
And curse myself for being across the sea

Chorus

At ten I shaved my head and tried to be a monk 
I thought the older women would like me if I did 
You see ma, I'm a good little boy (good little boy) 
It's all your fault, momma 
It's all your fault 

Goddam this business is really lame 
I gotta live on an island to find the juice 
So you send 
Me your love 
From all around the world 
As if I could live on words and dreams and a million screams 
Oh, how I need a hand in mine to feel 
Why are you so far away from me?

Chorus 

I got your letter 
You got my song 

The Good Life

When I look in the mirror 
I can't believe what I see 
Tell me who's that funky dude 
Starin' back at me 
Broken beaten down 
Can't even get around 
Without an old man came 
I fall and hit the ground 
Shivering in the cold 
Bitter and alone 

Excuse the bitchin 
I shouldn't complain 
I should have no feeling 
'cause feeling is pain 
As everything I need 
Is denied me 
Everything I want 
Is taken away from me 
But who do I got to blame 
Nobody but me

And I don't wanna be an old man anymore 
It's been a year or two since I was out on the floor 
Shakin' booty making sweet love all the night 
It's time I got back to the good life 
It's time I got back 
It's time I got back 
And I don't even know how I got off the track 
I wanna go back, yeah 

Screw this crap I've had it 
I ain't no Mr. cool 
I'm a pig I'm a dog 
So 'scuse me if I drool 
I ain't gonna hurt nobody 
Ain't gonna 'cause a scene 
Just need to admit that I want sugar in my tea 
Hear me? Hear me? I want sugar in my tea 

Chorus

I wanna go back 
I wanna go back 
And I don't even know how I got off the track 
It's time I got back 
It's time I got back 
And I don't even know how I got off the track 
I wanna go back, yeah

Chorus 

El Scorcho

El Scorcho, Aye Carumba! 
Goddamn you half-Japanese girls 
Do it to me every time 
Oh, the redhead said you shred the cello 
And I'm jello, baby 
But you want talk won't look won't think of me 
I'm the epitome 
Of Public Enemy 
Why you wanna go and do me like that? 
Come down on the street and dance with me 

I'm a lot like you so please 
Hello I'm here I'm waiting 
I think I'd be good for you 
And you you'd be good for me 

I asked you to go to the Green Day concert 
You said you never heard of them (how cool is that?) 
How cool is that? 
So I went to your room and read your diary 
"Watching grunge leg drop New Jack through a presstable" 
And then my heart stopped: 
"Listening to Cio-Cio San 
fall in love all over again." 

Chorus 

How stupid is it 
I can't talk about it 
I gotta sing about it 
And make a record of my heart 
How stupid is it 
Won't you gimme a minute 
Just come up to me 
And say hello (to my heart) 
How stupid is it 
For all I know you want me too 
Or maybe you just don't know what to do 
And maybe you're scared to say 
I'm falling for you 

I wish I could get my head outta the sand 
'cause I think we'd make a good team 
And you would keep my fingernails clean 
But that's just a stupid dream that I won't realize 
'cause I can't even look in your eyes without shakin' 
And I ain't fakin' 
I'll bring home the turkey if you bring home the bacon 

Chorus 

Pink Triangle

When I'm stable long enough 
I start to look around for love 
See a sweet and floral print 
My mind begins the arrangements 
But when I start to feel that pull 
Turns out I just pulled myself 
She would never go with me 
Were I the last girl on earth 

I'm dumb she's a lesbian 
I thought I had found the one 
We were good as married in my mind 
But married in my mind's no good 
A pink triangle on her sleeve 
Let me know the truth 
Let me know the truth 

Might have smoked a few in my time 
But never thought it was a crime 
Knew the day would surely come 
When I'd chill and settle down 
When I think I've found a good old fashioned girl 
Then she put me in my place 
If everyone's a little queer 
Can't she be a little straight 

Chorus 

Chorus 

Chorus 

Let me know the truth

Falling for You

Holy cow I think I've got one here 
Now just what am I supposed to do? 
I've got a number of irrational fears 
That I'd like to share with you 
First there's rules about old goats like me 
Hanging around with chicks like you 
But I do like you 
And another one: you say 'like' too much 

But I'm shakin at your touch 
I like you way too much 
My baby I'm afraid I'm falling for you 
I'd do about anything to get the hell out alive 
Or maybe I would rather settle down with you 

Holy moly baby wouldn't you know it 
Just as I was bustin' loose 
I gotta go turn in my rock star card 
And get fat and old with you 
'cause I'm a burning candle 
You're a gentle moth 
Teaching me to lick a little bit kinder 
And I do like you you're the lucky one 
No I'm the lucky one 

Chorus 

Holy sweet goddam you left your cello in the basement 
I admired the glowing stars 
And tried to play a tune 
I can't believe how bad I suck it's true 
What could you possibly see in little ol' 3-chord me? 
But I do like you and you like me too 
I'm ready let's do it baby 

Chorus 

Butterfly

Yesterday i went outside 
With my momma's mason jar 
Caught a lovely butterfly 
When I woke up today 
Looked in on my fairy pet 
She had withered all away 
No more sighing in her breast 
I'm sorry for what I did 
I did what my body told me to 
I didn't mean to do you harm 
Everytime I pin down what I think I want it slips away 
The ghost slips away 

Smell you on my hand for days 
I can't wash away your scent 
If I'm a dog then you're a bitch 
I guess you're as real as me 
Maybe I can live with that 
Maybe I need fantasy 
Life of chasing butterfly 
I'm sorry for what I did 
I did what my body told me to 
I didn't mean to do you harm 
Everytime I pin down what I think I want it slips away 
The ghost slips away 

I told you I would return 
When the robin makes his nest 
But I ain't never coming back 
I'm sorry 
I'm sorry 
I'm sorry
