All I Wanna Do Is Roll

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...

Golden For Forever
02:39
|
|

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

Dirty Shenanigans
03:13
|
|
||
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

Mean Little Girl

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

Disappearing Song
04:05
|
|
||
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

Talk To Snakes
02:51
|
|
||
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

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

Smart Sixth Avenue
04:04
|
|
||
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 & Ginger
02:39

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
