Get It
I turn on the and what do I see A whole lotta people "Don't blame me" They point their crooked little fingers ar else Spend all their time feelin' for themselves of this, victim of that Your too thin; your daddy's too fat Get it Get it All this whinin' and cryin' and a fit Get it, get over it You say you haven't the same since you had your little crash But you might feel if I gave you some cash The more I about it, Old Billy was right Let's all the lawyers, kill 'em tonight You don't want to work, you want to live like a But the big, bad world owe you a thing Get it Get it If you don't to play, then you might as well split Get over it, Get it like going to confession every time I hear you speak You're the most of your losin' streak Some call it sick, but I it weak You drag it around a ball and chain You wallow in the you wallow in the pain You wave it like a flag, you wear it like a Got your mind in the gutter, bringin' down Complain the present and blame it on the past I'd like to find your inner child and kick its ass Get it Get it All this bitchin' and and pitchin' a fit Get over it, get it Get it Get it It's gotta sometime, so why don't you quit Get over it, get it

The From Yesterday
It wasn't reall sad the way they said Or it just hurt so bad she couldn't cry He packed his things, out the door and drove away And she the girl from yesterday He took a across the sea To some land She stayed at and tried to understand How who had been so close could be so far away And she became the from yesterday She doesn't know right She doesn't know wrong She knows the pain that comes from waiting for so long And she doesn't count the That she's cried while away Because she deep in her heart That he'll be someday The light's on in the window; she's waiting by the Talking to a memory that's coming home She dreams of his returning and the things he might say But she'll always be the from yesterday Yeh, she'll be the girl from yesterday
To Be Still
It's another day in paradise As you to your bed You'd anything to silence Those ringing in your head You thought you could find Just over green hill You thought you be satisfied But you never Learn to be We are like sheep without a We don't know how to be So we wander this desert And wind up following the wrong home But the cries out for another And they keep answering bell And one more starry-eyed Meets a farewell- Learn to be to be still Now the in your garden They don't smell so you've forgotten The heaven at your feet There are so many In all these we send (We asking) How do I get out of do I fit in? Though the world is and shaken if your heart is breakin' It's for you to awaken And you will- to be still Learn to be You just keep on on runnin'
Tequila
It's another sunrise Starin' 'cross the sky, said goodbye He was just a hired Workin' on the he planned to try The go by Ev'ry night the sun goes down Just lonely boy in town And she's out 'round She wasn't just woman And I couldn't from comin' on It's so long Oh, and a hollow feelin' when It comes down to friends It ends another shot of courage Wonder why the right words never You just get It's another sunrise,this old world looks the same, frame, mm...
