OK, boys and girls
We're gonna list some things for you to do
To make yourself a better person
So just listen, grrrrr

Be nice to your sister
Talk to your grandmother
Paint pretty pictures
Don't play ball in the house
Don't play with scissors
Be nice to cops


Every Morning

Every morning
There's a halo hanging from the corner
Of my girlfriend's four-post bed
I know it's not mine
But I'll see if I could use it
For the weekend or a one-night stand

Couldn't understand
How to work it out
Once again, as predicted
Left my broken heart open and you ripped it out

Something's got me reeling
It stopped me from believing
Turn me around again
Said that we can do it
You know I wanna do it again
Sugar Ray say

Oooh, every morning
Every moning when I wake up (shut the door, baby, don't say a word)
She always rights the wrong
She always rights, she always rights (shut the door, baby, shut the door, baby)

Every morning
There's a heartache hanging from the corner
Of my girlfriend's four-post bed
I know it's not mine
And I know she thinks she loves me
But I never can believe what she said

Something's so deceiving
When you start believing
Tturn me around again
Said we couldn't do it
You know I wanna do it again

Oooh, every morning
Every moning when I wake up (shut the door, baby, don't say a word)
Oooh, every morning
Every morning when I wake up (shut the door, baby, shut the door, baby)

She always rights the wrong, for me, baby
She always rights the wrong, for me

Every morning
There's a halo hanging from the corner
Of my girlfriend's four-post bed
I know it's not mine
But I'll see if I could use it
For the weekend or a one-night stand (shut the door, baby, don't say a word)

Every morning
Every morning when I wake up (shut the door, baby, shut the door, baby)
Every morning
Every morning when I wake up (turn me around again, shut the door, baby, don't say a word)

Every morning (do it again)
Every morning when I wake up
Every morning (shut the door, baby, shut the door, baby)
Every morning when I wake up


Falls Apart

She falls apart by herself
No one's there to talk or understand
Feels sustained, dries here eyes
Finds herself, opens the door inside

People see right through you
Everyone who knew you well
Falls apart, might as well
Day is long and nothing is wasted

Run away, run away (run away, run away)
Hold on to you, but you're going away
Run away, run away (run away, run away)
Hold you tomorrow, but you're leaving today

You walk along by yourself
There's no sound, nothing is changing
Been gone away, left you there
Emptiness is nothing you can't share

All those words that hurt you
More than you would let it show
Comes apart, by yourself
All is well and everything's wasted

Run away, run away (run away, run away)
Hold on to you, but you're going away
Run away, run away (run away, run away)
Hold you tomorrow, but you're leaving today

Sometimes, with feel around, this dance and style, it can't be down
All the sound of being on my own
Any sound of be again, it's time that we're surrounded with friends
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere to run away, yeah

She falls apart, no one there
Hold her hand, it seems to disappear
Falls apart, might as well
Day is long and nothing is wasted

Run away, run away (run away, run away)
Hold on to you, but you're going away
Run away, run away (run away, run away)
Hold you tomorrow, but you're leaving today

Run away, run away
Hold on to you, but you're going away
But you're leaving today
But you're leaving today


Personal Space Invader

Sometimes
I just want to be left alone
Move your big head
It's my way, go and get your own

I don't care about the things you do
I don't care about the things you do
I don't care about the things you do
I don't care about, I don't care about

All my friends can't relate
No time off to hesitate
Feel my head, touch my face
Two steps back, you're in my space

One more
Impossible to satiate
Got the high score
Forgot to put the letterage

I don't know about the things you do
I don't know about the things you do
I don't know about the things you know about
The things I know about the things you do

All my friends can't relate
No time off to hesitate
Feel my head, touch my face
Two steps back, you're in my space

The valetting that we make
Or the illegal pictures on the Net
Remember how we told you well
And that your playground is a gate to hell

I don't know about the things you do
I don't know about the things you do
I don't know about the things you do
I don't know care about

All my friends can't relate
No time off to hesitate
Feel my head, touch my face
Two steps back, you're in my space

You stink (I don't know about the things you do)
Touching me (I don't know about the things you do)
Can you say

I don't care about the things you do (sometimes)
I don't care about the things you do (I just want to be left alone)
I don't care about the things you do (move your big head)
I don't care about the things you do (it's my way, go and get your own)
I don't care about, I don't care about

All my friends can't relate
No time off to hesitate
Feel my head, touch my face
Two steps back, you're in my space

Personal space invader
Personal space invader
Strange how you find out later

Live & Direct

Break break break
We can go out

Love's what we be about
Love's what we be about
We can go out
Love's what we be about
Love's what we be about

We can go out on the weekend
'Cause the weekend is free (it's getting good)
We can go off on the deep end
If you're thinking of me

We can make it on your old man's money
Never make it on mine
We can make it through the week
When you're believing in me

You're the one that said to me
You're the one that said to me
That we don't regret anymore
We don't regret anymore

Love's what we be about
Love's what we be about

We can get out on the weekend
Everybody can see
We can drive off the deep end
If you depend on me

We can make it, you can make it
Never make it on time
Lose your mind on the weekend
Off the deep end with me

Hey, sit down, put your money on the ground
'Cause it's gonna be a tragedy
Hey, sit down, put your money on the ground
'Cause it's gonna be a tragedy

You're the one that said to me
You're the one that said to me
That we don't regret anymore
We don't regret anymore

Love's what we be about
Love's what we be about

Get it up, get it up
Get it up, get it up

It's gonna be a tragedy
It's gonna be a tragedy
Love's what we be about
Love's what we be about

It's gonna be a tragedy
Love's what we be about
Love's what we be about

We can go out for the weekend

[rap]

We can go out for the weekend
The weekend is free
We can go out for the weekend
We can go out, we can go out
Love's what we be about
Love's what we be about

We can go out
We can go out
We can go out


Someday

Someday
When my life has passed me by
I lay around and wonder why
You were always there for me

One way
In the eyes of a passerby
I look around for another try
And fade away

Just close your eyes and I'll take you there
This place is warm without a care
We'll take a swim in the deep blue sea
I go to leave and you reach for me

Some say
Better things will come our way
No matter what they try to say
You were always there for me

Someway
When the sun begins to shine
I hear a song from another time
And fade away
And fade away

Just close your eyes and I'll take you there
This place is warm without a care
We'll take a swim in the deep blue sea
I go to leave and you reach for me

Oooh
Come on

Someone said you tried to long
Someone said we got it all
Someone said we tried too long
Is there a place where I belong?

So far, so long
So far away
So far, so wrong
So far away, away, away

Someday
When my life has passed me by
I lay around and wonder why
You were always there for me

One way
In the eyes of a passerby
I look around for another try
And fade away

And fade away
And fade away
And fade away
And fade away

And fade away
And fade away
And fade away (someday)
And fade away


Aim For Me

Aim for me
Aim for me
Aim for me
Aim for me

It's a great big world and you don't believe in nothing
Don't believe in nothing anyway
Still got a lot to learn, but we started out with nothing
With my friends, we're going on our way

Some people change and your life will rearrange
Even when you're so far from home
When it's said and done and you've got us on the run
That's OK, we'll never come undone

Aim for me
Aim for me
Aim for me
Aim for me, yeah

They'll try to count you out, but you've got to count yourself in
There's no time to throw it all away
Not saying that I'm right, see the trouble that we've been in
Didn't ask for nothing along the way

When it's said and done and you've got us on the run
That's OK, we'll never come undone
Some people change and your life will rearrange
Even when you're so far from home

Aim for me
Aim for me
Aim for me
Aim for me

Yeah
Aaah
Hit me

Some people change and your life will rearrange
Even when you're so far from home
When it's said and done and you've got us on the run
That's OK, we'll never come undone

Aim for me
Aim for me
Aim for me
Aim for me
Aim for me

Some people change
And your life will rearrange
Even when you're so far from home


Ode To The Lonely Hearted

Please stay away 'til the end of the night
Where nothing's on the run
Please stay away 'til I can find
The reason and the fun

Though I've seen all their happiness
I can only be down
Go take your soul
Make an ode to the lonely hearted

These broken dreams are not what they seem
There's so much more than this
I can't see how she won't think now
Of everything we've missed

All the words that have gone before
May as well have been none
Go take your soul
Make an ode to the lonely hearted
Go take your soul
Make an ode to the lonely hearted

I know it's a real life story
But there's so little time
I know it's a real nice story
But it's easy to find

These cigarettes won't relieve a thing
There's just to ease my mind
I wonder so if she'll ever know
Of all we've left behind

Of the thirty-one dreams we had
Thirty-one were my own
Go take your soul
Make an ode to the lonely hearted

Go take your soul
Make an ode to the lonely hearted
Go take your soul
Make an ode to the lonely hearted


Burning Dog

Look around
Help me out
Breaking up
Breaking down

Take a man and leave him on a mission
Take a man and leave him on a shelf
Take a man and leave him on a mission
Take a man and leave him by himself

All around in my sight
Back to back, side to side
All around in my sight
Back to back, side to side

Going down
Half the time
Close my eyes
There's no sound

Take a man and leave him on a mission
Take a man and leave him on a shelf
Take a man and leave him on a mission
Take a man and leave him by himself

All around in my sight
Back to back, side to side
All around in my sight
Back to back, side to side, yeah

Lift me up
Help me out
Lost control
Going down

Take a man and leave him on a mission
Take a man and leave him on a shelf
Take a man and leave him on a mission
Take a man and leave him by himself

All around in my sight
Back to back, side to side
All around in my sight
Back to back, side to side

All around in my sight
Back to back, side to side
All around in my sight
Back to back, side to side!!!


Even Though

Even though she's on my mind
Even though she's hard to find
Even though there's always something with you
Even though there's always something

Even though she's right on time
Even though she's always lying
Even though there's always something with you
Even though there's always something

I know we don't talk about it
I know that that's true
I know we don't talk about it
I'm so scared that I'm losing you

Even though she just stopped trying
Even though I can't stop crying
Even though there's always something with you
Even though there's always something
Even though there's always something with you

I know we don't talk about it
I know that that's true
I know we don't talk about it
I'm so lonely, away from you

Even though there's always something with you
Even though there's always something with you
Even though there's always something with you
Even though there's always something with you


Abracadabra

I heat up, I can't cool down
You got me spinning 'round and 'round
'Round and 'round and 'round it goes
Where it stops, nobody knows

Every time you call my name
I heat up like a burning flame
Burning flame full of desire
Kiss me baby, let the fire get higher

Abra-abracadabra
I wanna reach out and grab ya
Abra-abracadabra
Abracadabra

You make me hot, you make me sigh
You make me laugh, you make me cry
Keep me burning for your love
With the touch of a velvet glove

Abra-abracadabra
I wanna reach out and grab ya
Abra-abracadabra
Abracadabra

I feel the magic in your caress
I feel magic when I touch your dress
Silk and satin, leather and lace
Black panties with an angel's face

I see magic in your eyes
I hear the magic in your sighs
Just when I think I'm gonna get away
I hear those words that you always say

Abra-abracadabra
I wanna reach out and grab ya
Abra-abracadabra
Abracadabra

Every time you call my name
I heat up like a burning flame
Burning flame full of desire
Kiss me baby, let the fire get higher, yeah yeah yeah

I heat up, I can't cool down
My situation goes 'round and 'round
I heat up, I can't cool down
My situation goes 'round and 'round
I heat up, I can't cool down
My situation goes 'round and 'round


Glory

It's good to see you here again
Thought you almost died
Remember when we were listening
You barely had to try
Got me falling from the sky
Please tell me lie after lie

Now I know they're gonna take my glory
From the ones I left behind
And I know they're gonna say they're sorry
But I'll never change my mind

Everybody's gonna find me out
I'm going down this time
Everybody's gonna know about
The mess you left behind
Got me falling from the sky
Please tell me lie after lie

Now I know they're gonna take my glory
From the ones I left behind
And I know they're gonna say they're sorry
But I'll never change my mind

Hey hey hey hey aaah
Hey hey hey hey aaah

You say I'm lazy, then you lie around
You try to put me down
I know you're crazy when I see
You spin your head around
Got me falling from the sky
Please tell me lie after lie

Now I know they're gonna take my glory
From the ones I left behind
And I know they're gonna say they're sorry
But I'll never change my mind

Hey hey hey hey aaah
Hey hey hey hey aaah aaah

Now I know they're gonna take my glory
And I know they're gonna say they're sorry
And I know they're gonna say they're sorry
No, I'm never gonna tell my story
