Don't Let Anyone 02:30
lyrics

DON'T LET ANYONE Don't let anyone tell you, you're not good enough You're no good, you're no good, you're no good Don't let anyone tell you, you're not good enough You're no good, you're no good, you're no good You are of what you're made it's cause of you I crave Hasn't anyone ever told you, how beautiful you are Your golden hair and your silver heels When you fell asleep behind the wheel And from that moment on My heart you did steal away Don't let anyone tell you, you're not good enough You're no good, you're no good, you're no good

Won't You Come out 04:10
lyrics

WON'T YOU COME OUT The Spring ends the Summer brings out the bees And the birds are gathered in the trees They all seem to shout Won't you come out, won't you come out now Won't you come out to play, with me today There's no place I'd rather be than with you on my knee On the dunes, hidden 'neath the grass Down by the sea Won't you come out, won't you come out now Won't you come out to play, with me today Come on and give me a try You'll find out when and why Won't you come out to play There's no reason just a beautiful day Won't you come out, won't you come out now Won't you come out to play, with me today

Use Your Head 02:59
lyrics

USE YOUR HEAD They say it is alright to fight, if you fight to win And never give in You better watch out Or else you will never make it out of here You paint such a pretty picture, of what's going down It's for the people you say And they lap it up only for you To spit it out again So use your head, don't lose your head Don't be a fool I disagree with the words you say Fight and live another day is not the way Whoever told you was having you on Pulling your leg playing you for the fool So use your head, don't lose your head Don't be a fool

It's Not Right 02:36

IT'S NOT RIGHT You should never hold back what you are trying to say Come forward, someone's got to pay It's not right, but it's okay It's not right, but it's okay It's no use when you are gone, to keep holding on To what you've got, when all you got is hurt It's not right, but it's okay It's not right, but it's okay It's not right, but it's okay It's not right, but it's okay

BACKSEAT OF A CAR An angel with a dirty face How long will it take for you To fall from grace To fall from grace How many more times must I tell you I must, I must I must say no to you You've been found out Look who's looking scared Exposed for who you really are In the backseat of a car How many more times must I tell you I must, I must I must say no to you When you calm down Won't you drop by and see me You know the truth hurts and I could not tell you I would not tell you How many more times must I tell you I must, I must I must say no to you How many more times must I tell you I must, I must I must say no to you

CASINO PIER Who are you to say? Fuck 'em all anyway Who are you to judge? When you cannot be judged Who are you to send us here To this halfway house? It’s because We make you feel down All the money that you made Is no good You can’t take it to your grave It’s your soul, it’s your soul That can’t be saved It’s too late. Always taking Never giving back Hey man! Won’t you please get off my back What would i do If i got a hold of you? I’d make you pay for all the shit you threw my way All the money that you made Is no good You can’t take it to your grave It’s your soul, it’s your soul That can’t be saved It’s too late. If they're gonna pull you down? If they're gonna drag you around? Don't let it happen to you It's already happened me Who are you to send us here To casino pier?

WORDS WRITTEN It's an itch its a rash, it's a burn and it stings But you can't wash it off You're going to have to wait and see You wait and see You're the devil You're the devil You're the devil There's a sense of joy when the pain goes away But it's not going to last beyond tomorrow and a day It's here to stay It's here to stay You're the devil You're the devil You're the devil Is it all in my head? it can't be The scratch marks on my skin It pains me, it's gotten under my skin It's inside of me You're the devil You're the devil You're the devil

PLAYGROUND LOVE Don't you know that from the first time That I saw you, I just had to have you near To be around you, to befriend you, To be all you want me to be but it's impossible That's not how I'm made I don't mind telling you that I am finding it hard Not seeing you every day and every way In every shape and form I'm missing you, I'm missing you You're my playground love You're my playground love That's what you mean to me Long distance relationships were like sinking ships to me Not worth a hope in Hell they were lost on me Long distance relationships were like sinking ships to me Not worth a hope in Hell, they were lost on me You're my playground love You're my playground love That's what you mean to me

ONE DAY OF THE YEAR Come on in, the water is warm Your back's on fire We are not made for the sun Our pink skin will burn It's the one day of the year It's the one day of the year It's the one day of the year We get to see the sun Making sandcastles on the beach And out of reach from the rising tide The old and the young are here Everyone except you my dear It's the one day of the year It's the one day of the year It's the one day of the year We get to see the sun

September 06:11
lyrics

SEPTEMBER The crowded streets, the sirens wail Here's to New York, New York They drop, out of the sky We stand and watch as these people die All we can do is ask why Why do they drop out of the sky? September, I can't remember Anything good about September New York, New York brought down On it's knees by some cruel plight The brothers, they have fallen These people are calling out for your head Revenge is sweet you often repeat But nothing you can do Will bring those people back to you September, I can't remember Anything good about September
