Get It
I turn on the tube and do I see A whole lotta cryin' "Don't blame me" They point their little fingers ar everybody else all their time feelin' sorry for themselves Victim of this, victim of Your too thin; your daddy's too fat Get it Get it All this whinin' and cryin' and a fit Get over it, get it You say you haven't been the same you had your little crash But you might feel better if I gave you cash The I think about it, Old Billy was right Let's kill all the lawyers, kill 'em You don't want to work, you to live like a king But the big, bad world doesn't owe you a Get it Get it If you don't want to play, you might as well split Get it, Get over it It's going to confession every time I hear you speak You're makin' the most of your streak Some call it sick, but I call it You drag it like 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 in the gutter, bringin' everybody down about the present and blame it on the past I'd like to find your inner and kick its little ass Get it Get it All bitchin' and moanin' and pitchin' a fit Get it, get over it Get it Get it It's gotta stop sometime, so why don't you Get over it, get it

The Girl 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 plane the sea To some land She stayed at home and to understand How someone who had been so close be so far away And she became the girl yesterday She doesn't what's right She doesn't know wrong She only knows the pain that from waiting for so long And she count the teardrops she's cried while he's away Because she knows deep in her That be back someday The light's on in the she's waiting by the phone to a memory that's never coming home She of his returning and the things that he might say But she'll always be the girl from Yeh, she'll be the girl from yesterday
To Be Still
It's just day in paradise As you to your bed give anything to silence Those voices in your head You thought you could happiness Just over that hill You thought you would be But you never to be still We are like sheep without a We don't know how to be So we 'round this desert And wind up the wrong gods home But the cries out for another And they answering that bell And one more starry-eyed a violent farewell- Learn to be to be still Now the flowers in your don't smell so sweet Maybe you've The lying at your feet There are so many In all messages we send (We asking) How do I get out of do I fit in? Though the world is torn and if your heart is breakin' It's for you to awaken And someday you Learn to be to be still You just keep on on runnin'
Tequila
It's another sunrise Starin' slowly 'cross the sky, goodbye He was a hired hand Workin' on the he planned to try The go by Ev'ry night the sun goes down Just another boy in town And out runnin' 'round She wasn't just another And I keep from comin' on been so long Oh, and it's a feelin' when It comes to dealin' friends It never Take another of courage Wonder why the words never come You get numb It's tequila sunrise,this old world looks the same, frame, mm...
