better days (and the bottom drops out)
in my shoes my toes are busted my kitchen says my bread is molded got a good job at the dollar store one foot in the hole one foot gettin’ deeper with a broken mirror and a blown out speaker i ain’t got much else to lose i’m faded flat busted been jaded i been dusted i know that i’ve seen better days one foot in the hole one foot gettin’ deeper crank it to eleven and blow another speaker and i ain’t got much to lose i’ve seen better days been the star of many plays and the bottom drops out my cup’s filled up with five buck wine find myself here all the time another rip in the glass another chip in my tooth rained on i’ve been stained on found another goat i tried to put the blame on now i’m steppin on all the cracks but i guess there ain’t no use i’m bent like glass second hand like glory missed the bus but i’m in no hurry molasses fast no business born.


Open Road Song
This song was on Can't Hardly Wait
Tonight I feel ambitious and so does my foot as it sinks on the pedal I press it to the floor I don't need a girl don't need a friend 'cause my friend lonesome's unconditional We're flying forever bored And for a moment I love everything That I see and think and feel I love my broken side view mirror Cause it's so perfect I'm so perfect you're so perfect you're not here I hear the change in gears Chorus: My pile shakes as I hit eighty on the open road This is an open road song The night is beckoning although I have nowhere to go but home Feels good to be alone With every turn comes a new frame of mind if I could frame my mind where would it hang (Chorus) I crack a window and feel the cool air cleanse my every pore as I pour my poor heart out To a radio song that's patient and willing to listen My volume drowns it out YeahBut that's O.K. 'cause I sound better than him anyway any day Yeah my voice is sweet as salt I search for comfort and I find it where I've found it many times before Times before can be forgotten (Chorus) Top


Tongue Tied
One thousand faces all look the same They're all so boring mild and tame Contaminate him knock off his glasses Teach him to tamper with the cloning process Pardon me sir can I ask you a favor Make me a cowboy like my next door neighbor Pardon me sir can I use your eraser To remove my brain of unconventional nature Chorus: Take my tongue It's cocked and loaded The board has dubbed you special student Sit alone sweat in silence We don't tolerate defiance One thousand paces lead to the gate They're all so boring mild sedate You hear me say this don't make any sense As I hop up and over the fence Bridge: Hooked on nicotine and phonics Fun like macro economics Still and quiet like they taught us Fun like macro economics Vigilante thoughts and a cheap guitar I am my own movie star I don't know you I don't want to I don't know you I don't want to (Chorus) Top


Saturday Night
Saturday night burns a redness on my face I tasted you you tasted me you were never my taste Now you're left alone with precious thoughts Of half assed half an hour stops And talk so small I can't remember every saying a word Laced with thick naivetÈ Firm delusions can't be swayed Tell yourself you're happy We both know the truth It's false behind the dirty talk the dirty sheets the sexy walk Your eyes are closed your heart is open wide and that's no good There is something up my sleeve There is nothing in-between You and me that you can't see So beg my pardon Honesty's a virtue that can hurt you let it be The thought that counts is counting down the minutes 'till I leave and when I do you'll be looking for security in words Though you know that you won't get it for the better for the worse I apologize for me Then I'm back in a couple weeks I'm too weak to help it Don't know how to end it I apologize for me Top


When Joey's in her house watching "Home Movies," the song playing is "I Do" performed by Jude. It is on the CD "No One is Really Beautiful."
I got a letter today/ An invitation/ And the writing looked like you/Hello how are you and by the way/ Please RSVP I do/ I thought of writing sad words of how it used to be/ But I didn't want to bring you down, no I guess the bells will ring pretty well there without me/ Don't worry 'bout me baby I'll wear the thorny crown/ I will play the clown/ If you think that I don't love you, you're just wrong/ And that don't matter now anyway/ I couldn't bear to see you up there with a white dress on/ Here's my vow to you/ I'll stay away I remember when in a lover's whisper you said/No other man would ever share your bed/ Well we both know that's not been so/And I wish I'd never let you go now/ You found a better man instead/ I wish you health and wealth and a white house on a hill and I hope you raise a family/Little boy and a little girl, a little more joy in this little old world/ Well, that'd be enough for me Time rolls on/ And dreams they die/ And I've thrown out the pictures I had of you and I/ And if you're ever wondering if love can be true/ Well, think of me and remember darling like I, like I do/ Ole friendships fade away, love falls apart/And you've not spent a single day outside my heart/But, there's just one more dream that I have left for you I hope you're smiling when he turns around and says I do...


Dammit
It's alright to tell me what you think about me I won't try to argue or hold it against you I know that you're leaving you must have your reasons The season is calling and your pictures are falling down The steps that I retrace a sad look on your face The timing and structure did you hear he fucked her? A day late a buck short I'm writing the report I'm losing and failing when I move I'm flailing now And it's happened once again I'll turn to a friend Someone that understands Sees through the master plan But everybody's gone And I've been here for too long To face this on my own Well I guess this is growing up Well I guess this is growing up And maybe I'll see you at a movie sneak preview You'll show up and walk by on the arm of that guy And I'll smile and you'll wave we'll pretend it's okay The charade it won't last when he's gone I won't come back And it's happened once again I'll turn to a friend Someone that understands And sees through the master plan But everybody's gone And you've been here for too long To face this on your own Well I guess this is growing up Well, I guess this is growing up
