Who put the candy in the casserole? x4 One for the money, two for the show I don't really wanna rock, all I wanna do is roll Who put the money in the thunderbolt? x4 One for the money, two for the show I don't really wanna rock, all I wanna do is roll Shake shake, don't you wanna shimmy shimmy? Shake shake, don't you wanna shimmy shimmy? Shake shake, don't you wanna shimmy shimmy? Shake shake, don't you wanna shimmy shimmy? People say we've lost control We don't really wanna rock, all we wanna do is roll I caught my lady with a fishing pole x4 One for the money, two for the show I don't really wanna rock, all I wanna do is roll Who took the honey from the honeycomb? x4 One for the money, two for the show I don't really wanna rock, all I wanna do is...

A lotta money, little money I don't care Summer's got me feelin' like a millionaire We are golden for forever And all the little paper shakers best beware They's about to learn a little savoir faire We are golden for forever Don't give a damn about my enemies Tonite I'm laughing with my friends This is a nite for making memories We'll probably just forget All the silly idiots and bearded bums Running like mascara when the morning comes We are golden for forever And I don't mind eatin' from the garbage can As long as we can do it honey hand in hand We are golden for forever

Don't mess with my baby, don't mess with my pack We're happy and lazy lying on our backs And all of these hours on this island feel like maybe As a matter of fact Life couldn't be finer What do ya think about that? Just playing it fast and loose and bulletproof, we are That's why we don't get so hysterical when little things go wrong Cause it's a minor miracle, a major halcyon When every word I've ever said is true And everything we do is cool If these dirty shenanigans keep me close to you What could go wrong? Don't mess with these angels, they're watching my back They're like an epoxy keeping things intact A delicate language is the engine of our love

Why oh why does this mean little girl always make me cry? I've hit the ceiling, I've had all that I can stand She left me reeling with all this time on my hands I can't explain it and I don't understand Somebody tell me Where's my composure? Why do I care anyway? There's never closure for the poor sucker that stays I can't explain it and I can't change my ways Somebody tell me

I counted down the days until I finally had to leave To dangle like a spider in the tangled web we weave I've been pretty tired and I've worn it on my sleeve But I'll be back in your arms tomorrow Cause now the moment's come and gone A different day, the same old song The days, they turn to weeks The tires start to squeak And on it goes So may the winds carry me home Back to the place where I belong Cause now it's been oh far too long Too long I've sun this disappearing song And I've been chasing dragons holding tightly to their tails Tilted at the windmills, made repairs to broken sails I wandered from the map and never found the holy grail So I'll be back in your arms tomorrow
6.
Alone is the way that you enter Alone is the way that you leave As soon as you're born you start dying So cherish the time you receive Waiting in the garden of Eden Practicing original sin All the time it takes to pretend to talk to snakes To get out of the trouble we're in And I don't wanna say it's inspired But I don't wanna say it's insane I try to walk the line between heresy and crime Just in case there's something to it Preaching to the kids in the choir Holy rollers looking to spend Nothing left to say but don't come around my way And now I'm feeling guilty as sin Cause I ain't gonna promise tomorrow And I ain't gonna lead you astray Just don't ask me why and I'll never tell a lie Best to test the motives of men

Forgive Me 03:04
You wonder why I do the things I do Why I'm inclined to make things hard on you I'm mystified, I haven't got a clue Please forgive me, forgive me, forgive me I'm always lying and coming home past two Then I buy time with smiles and IOU's It's not a crime but since it bothers you Please forgive me, forgive me, forgive me I see the fire in your eyeballs when I talk to you Your friends all think that I'm a lost cause and it's probably true Why do you cry when these things bother you When I don't tie the laces on my shoes You act like I've spent my life sniffing glue Please forgive me, forgive me, forgive me

Maybelline 01:56
Hey Maybelline, don't you wanna be the girl of my dreams? Don't you wanna run away from all you've known before Ride the tides of ocean shores See the sunset fade over the mountain tops ahead? Oh hey Maybelline, don't you wanna be loved? Hey Maybelline, don't you want a break from this old routine? Don't you wanna fly so high above the clouds and trees Learn a thing from birds and bees See the morning rise over the ocean up ahead? Oh hey Maybelline, don't you wanna be loved? I'm pretty shy so I wrote you this letter Folded it up, snuck it into your sweater And I realize you could probably do better And everybody says "just move on and forget her" I know it's a long shot, but I needed to say

Hey Paulina 03:05
I'm a dirty little creep I watch you when you wake, I know when you're asleep I see you on the sidewalk, I know the combination to your bike lock Baby don't get dizzy down on me Just cause I wanna get to know you Well, I think it's plain to see that I'm the guy for you And you're the girl for me I seen you in the food court and I've got a copy of your passport Baby don't get dizzy down on me Just cause I cruise the block and park across the street Oh hey Paulina I bet you're wondering how I know your name I saw it written on your airbrushed tee shirt Next to the barbeque stain I'm sitting in a tree eye-level to your room Just right across the street I've got you in my cross-hairs, never ever need to worry I swear Baby don't get dizzy down on me I only wanna watch and try and sneak a peak Girl I've got the key to your heart And to your house

My arrow, my arrow Travel through the wide and narrow Your trajectory is high enough But the sooner that you discover that you'll never need any other My arrow, you'll find peace in the quiet And I'll drown my blues down on Smart Sixth Avenue While the whole world just feasts on the breeze We all lie awake with a weight we can't shake But for me, it's the weight that I'm chasing My arrow, my arrow Taking to the wind like a sparrow I know that your aim is true But you're hopelessly ascending Without ever comprehending There's is little chance you'll find your way down

Jack and Ginger, sweet and tender Jack and Ginger, take your place Jack and Ginger make it alright When they make you make a face Jack goes down like that after dinner Ginger snaps right back, such a winner All that said, one thing to remember They go together okay Jack and Ginger on a bender, on a race to outer space Jack and Ginger losing time but making up for it with grace Jack's okay, some say he's a sinner Ginger thin but Jack's even thinner And all that said, one thing to remember They go together okay And the violin's play as a crowd of people pay For the chance to share the moment of a lifetime But they're only there to wait and the same naysayers say It was over when they gave the dance a name
