"Everything"

my mother gave me one more reason
not to call you on the phone.
she told me, "chase girls like that
all yer life and you'll wind up alone."
i guess i would just like to take you
out for a cappuccino,
you refuse my advances once again,
i can't hear one more "no!"

i wish you would get over him,
i'll change yer mind about everything.

when i wink at you, you always
turn the other cheek,
i drilled a hole in the girls' showers
so that at you i could peek,
i'd love to get you naked and throw you
in the back of my dad's car,
i hear that if i get to third base with you,
it won't be too far!

i wish you would get over him,
i'll change yer mind about everything!
as i grow older i feel better
about me and myself,
i swear i never, ever once wished
i was anybody else.
i'd like to tell you i think you should
come up and see me sometime,
i know that i could possibly make it
the best time of yer life!

i wish you would get over him!
i'll change yer mind about everything!

"Make Like A Tree"

all i wanted was to be by myself,
(leave me alone)
all you did was hurt me
instead of help,
(leave me alone)
leave me alone!!

as i touch myself
my cold body,
(leave me alone)
you promised death would truly
set me free:
(leave me alone)
leave me alone!

i never thought in a million years
that you would hurt me,
now i pray to god every single day
that you'll desert me,
i never thought in a million years
that you would hurt me!

why don't you go away?!

stop the voices inside my brain,
(leave me alone)
the chatter is what finally drove me insane!
(leave me alone)
leave me alone!!

i never thought in a million years
that you would hurt me,
now i pray to god every single day
that you'll desert me!
i never thought in a million years
that you would hurt me:

why don't you go away?!

"Daddy's Getting Married"

my mama followed her lover to india
the mongoose and the roti walla on your front porch
tear me from a growling tiger's mouth
from then on i'm in love:

don't ask me how i am today
don't wanna talk about it
don't ask what the matter is
today's the big day
daddy's getting married
mama wipe yer tears away
my daddy's getting married
i don't know what to say
my daddy's getting married
today's the big day
my daddy's getting married
mama wipe yer tears away:

nice mommy and daddy tell me to drink my milk
don't draw moustaches on my sister's barbies
sit on the potty till you go little girl
i learned to smoke cigarettes in kentucky, y'all:

don't ask me how i am today
don't wanna talk about it
don't ask what the matter is
today's the big day:

daddy's getting married
mama wipe yer tears away
my daddy's getting married
i don't know what to say
my daddy's getting married
today's the big day
my daddy's getting married

wedding cake rotting in the graveyard
drowning dream like puppies in the sea:

today is the big day
my daddy's getting married
mama wipe yer tears away
my daddy's getting married
today is the big day
my daddy's getting married
mama wipe yer tears away:

"Tell On You"

it seemed like days had passed...
are you finished?
i could no longer
move my arms.

the only thing left in the room
was the silence:
can you still hear the breaking glass
when it hit my face?

even the mice were laughing
at the smell of pain,
here we go again
to the depths of no return:

please remember: i know who you are.
someday, i'll have the strength to tell.

as the man looked over me
with his inquiries,
i swore you never did it.
i licked the sweat from my palms.

alone am i with your face burned in my mind
you are the one (the fucker) who deserves to die
it should have never been me.

please remember: i know who you are.
someday, i'll have the strength to tell.

i pray for you as a little boy.
what must have happened to make you so cruel?
(and i pray that you rot in hell)

please remember: i know who you are.
someday, i'll have the strength to tell
:on you

"Never Alone"

lying in your hotel bed you cry
for the years that were wasted
and time gone by
darling girl can you not see
your soul is bright
i wish you could know
it's all gonna be all right:

a little determination and a little more pride
a little determination will ease your pain inside.

let me tell you
that you're never alone
yeah, yeah:

red wine stains your lips and mind
clouding memories from which
you always hide
little girl when will you learn
to shake it off
try to smile or the pain surely will not stop..

a little determination and a little more pride
a little determination will ease your pain inside.

let me tell you
that you're never alone
yeah, yeah:

a sadness fuels your contemplation
you must remember that your life's
only just begun
know you're in the eye of
the hurricane
a safe place only because there
it doesn't rain:
a little determination and a little more pride
a little determination will ease your pain inside.

let me tell you
that you're never alone
yeah, yeah:

"Over You"

my mind's wandering
i savor the passion that your torture brings
my breath's quickening
inhaling the perfume of my sweet sin
i dance on your grave
i pray i am the one that you choose to save
my fingers quiver
dry mouth silkening my boy you are drinking from my river.

it's just a little love song
just to tell you that
i'm coming over you, darling
just a little love song
just to ask you what you want me to do to you:

my mouth is aware
kisses harden with my fresh despair
my sick wonderment
in love with you and your cruel torment
petals of my rose
wetten within as my pulse, it slows
my head, it pounds
my boy, my ache,
i can't wait for you to watch me writhe around:

it's just a little love song
just to tell you that
i'm coming over you, darling
it's just a little love song
now i ask you what you want me to do to you:

"Succulent"

falling off of my own skateboard
praying to my almighty lord
look up and what do i see?
your face smiling down at me!
you look my body up and down
as i lay there upon the ground
i know, my love, i could not look much better:

succulent. you make me feel succulent.
yeah, ya do.

(if you're nice to me, i'll double you on my bmx)

i wonder if you think of me
if you are real or just a dream?
(now i'm drooling)
you make me such a juicy girl
i want to be your entire world,
my pigtails, they stand straight on end
baby, there's no need to pretend
won't you kiss my pink teddy bear?
i'll try not to cry when you spank me in the chair
i know, my love, you could not find much better:

succulent. you make me feel succulent.
yeah, ya do.

in my dreams you were driving the getaway car,
for you to love me every night i wish upon a star.
hard and shiny like a baby cockroach shell
to pay her off my medication i had to sell
like a little ripe tomato:
in your hands i'm mush, like playdoh
i wish i was a snow cone
lick me, lick me. have i set the tone?
i feel like i'm back in grade seven
learned how to kiss i am in heaven
let me show you how to kiss me better:
(a little lower, thanx!)

succulent. you make me feel succulent.
yeah, ya do!

"My Whole Life"

i don't wanna wait forever
but you know i would
you'd better hope i don't say "now or never"
'cause you know i could.
my whole life i'm searchin' for
someone like you
to take me gently by the hand
and show me what to do.

my whole life,
it's not over
it's my whole life...

if you're gonna say you love me
then, i love you, too
i don't wanna hear you tell me "shut up again"
yeah, i heard you.
my whole life is flashing
right before my eyes
no more fabricated hellos
and no more sad goodbyes:

my whole life,
it's not over
it's my whole life:

"The Letter"

can you remember chestnut street
and algae ripping at our feet?
i was just a little girl
and you were my whole world.

what i'd give to be lying in your arms,
what i'd give to be your girl again:

did you know that you were my first love?
did you know it's you i still dream of?
i've grown up a lot since then
my nostalgic heart will never mend.

what i'd give to be lying in your arms,
what i'd give to be your girl again:
(what i'd give to be your girl again)

"My Bike"

the last time i fell in love
she had red, red, hair and a ring in her lip
she called me "jellybean" while playing basketball
it was so divine... but never like this!

and you are my entity
you are my dream
yeah you're my dream:

lazy saturday like a kitten
in the sunshine warm as arkansas
i was your tires with rose water
after the mud bog i bathe you in my love

you are my entity
you are my dream
you are my dream...

remember the first time i met you
and i spilled apple juice all over you
and you were all wet and sticky
and i took you and i rolled you through the forest
through the mud and leaves and tied you to a tree
and you liked it
next time i met you i sat on you and rolled and rolled and rolled
back to the forest in the mud in the leaves
and i tied you to that same tree
and you liked it in my dream

you are my entity
you are my dream
you are my entity
you are my dream
you're my dream...
(yes, i like my bike that much!)
