Harvey Danger - "Flagpole Sitta"

I had visions, I was in them
I was looking into the mirror
To see a little bit clearer
Rottenness and evil in me

Fingertips have memories
Mine can't forget the curves of your body
And when I feel a bit naughty
I run it up the flagpole and see who salutes
(but no one ever does)

I'm not sick but I'm not well
And I'm so hot cause I'm in hell

Been around the world and found
That only stupid people are breeding
The cretins cloning and feeding
And I don't even own a TV

Put me in the hospital for nerves
And then they had to commit me
You told them all I was crazy
They cut off my legs now I'm an amputee, god damn you

I'm not sick but I'm not well
And I'm so hot cause I'm in hell
I'm not sick but I'm not well
And it's a sin to live so well

I wanna publish zines
And rage against machines
I wanna pierce my tongue
It doesn't hurt, it feels fine
The trivial sublime
I'd like to turn off time
And kill my mind
You kill my mind

Paranoia paranoia
Everybody's coming to get me
Just say you never met me
I'm going underground with the moles
Hear the voices in my head
I swear to god it sounds like they're snoring
But if you're bored then you're boring
The agony and the irony, they're killing me

I'm not sick but I'm not well
And I'm so hot cause I'm in hell
I'm not sick but I'm not well
And it's a sin to live so well

Say-So - "Mary Be Merry"

She's a wild weed that lives by the water
And the width of the wind cannot contain her
She soaks in the days and the color of the sun
But finds no traction for her soul

They say she lacks initiative, she seems invisible
But they never seen her dance the moon
Arms unfolding like wings a-whirling
Twirling soul-a-fire
(She's just an angel past her curfew)

Chorus: Mary be merry, can you stay for awhile?
Her feet don't touch the ground
Mary be merry, you're just misunderstood
Is she just make believe

Pearls round her neck, and cat's eyes in her pockets
The stars persuade all her dreams
She's a water color picture, real to the touch
But bleeds at the first sign of rain
(She couldn't touch the sky if she weren't lighter than air)

She is urgent like morning, in her hand-me-down torment
But I'd be her for a day
To feel the earth move or to tear a piece of heaven
I'd love to be her for a day

(She's just an angel past her curfew)

Bruce Hornsby - "Swan Song"

Chorus: And I will do alright, well in truth, I might
I may be stumblin' round, on some cold night
I will miss the times when we were so right
Although it seems so long ago, so long
This is my swan song, I'm gone, gone

This is no sorrowful day
You can be sure I've got no axe to grind at all
It's circumstance or burn out
You can be sure I've been grinding, till I'm grinding to a halt
Sometimes it's the right thing to cut the cord
You've been holding on hard but your hands get sore
Sometimes it's worth it, but sometimes you wonder what for

Catie Curtis - "The Party's Over"

My sisters will ask me, "How was the ball?"
I'll say, "I don't want to talk about it at all"

Then I will get up in the morning
Gotta buy me some shoes
I will get up in the morning
I've got nothing to lose

I was not dreaming no I was awake
And it was real, I would have known if it were all fake
I would have known

I lost my glass slipper as well as my ride
I have to admit that I don't know truth from lies
Truth from lies

I will get up in the morning
Gotta buy me some shoes
I will get up in the morning
I've got nothing to lose

I will get up in the morning
Gotta buy me some shoes
I will get up in the morning
I've got nothing to lose

The party's over
The clock's long struck twelve
Now you can be you and
I can turn into myself

Newsboys - "Woo Hoo"

Request the honor of your presence
The tear gas has blown away
Put down your crumpets and your coffee now
So unfashionably late

(chrous 1)
Little brother, little sister
Underwater we go
Out of our ordinary selves
Stepping out
To where the people sing

( chorus 2)
Woohoooooooooo
-And the people sing
-And the times are good

You say i'm acting like a beggar
I call it killing the fool
You carry more baggage
Than a momma's boy
On your first day of school

(chorus 1)
(chorus 2)

Let go the light of the t.v.
Drop the hands
The chains that bind me
Turn it all around
Stop, lift you up `n die to self
In a time when the left and the right's the same
When it's all blurred vision in a crazy haze
Send out the invitations

(chorus 2) 2x
You say i'm acting like a beggar
I call it killin the fool
To save your life you gotta lose it
So the people sing
