The Difference
One, two boys by the river
Down by the water
Tellin riddles in the dark
With fireflies under the moonlight
Carvin the insides of a tree with a knife
Ever hear the one about the boys big sister
His best friend come along
He tried to kiss her
Chorus:
The only difference
That I see
Is you are exactly the same
As you used to be
One boy lives in a tower
With bow and arrow
And the artificial heart
With his girl
Maid of dishonor
He loaded the cannon
With a jealous appetite
They say that children now
They come in all ages
And maybe sometimes old men die
With little boy faces
(chorus)
Repeat
You always said that you needed some
But you always had more, more than anyone
(chorus)
Repeat

Hey, Hey, Nadine
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
(chorus 1)
Pretty blond hair singing as she walks
China-like smile bitchin' as she talks
Dangerous eyes on a small town girl
Seen everything all around the world
If i could only let her see my way
Maybe we should spin a watch all day
In a place far away from here

Killing The Blues
Leaves were falling ..just like embers
In colors red and gold they set us on fire
Burning just like a moonbeam ..in our eyes
Chorus:
Somebody said they saw me
Swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud.
Killing the blues
I am guilty of something
I hope you never do because there is nothing
Sadder than losing .. yourself in love
Repeat chorus:
Repeat chorus:
Now, you ask me just to leave you
To go out on my own and get what I need to
You want me to find ..what Ive already had

Im The One Who Loves You
Chorus:
Im the one who loves you
Im the one who loves you
Im the one who loves you
Im the one who loves you
Little girl again you are blue
Another fellow has gone and left you
I see youve come back to me
Your best frind
To tell another tragic story again
And once more you look into my eyes
And one more time you ought to realize
Repeat chorus
I must confess youre not to be blamed
For being caught in those boys vicious games
This time I wont let you go back
Never again, my dear, in fact
Im gonna stop the blueness
In you
Also confess what my heart
Wants me to
Repeat chorus
Just once more you look in my eyes
And one more time you ought to realize

Fight For Your Right
You wake up late for school - man you don't wanna go
You ask you mom, 'Please?' - but she still says, 'No!'
You missed two classes - and no homework
But your teacher preaches class like you're some kind of jerk
(chorus) You gotta fight for your right to party
You pop caught you smoking - and he said, 'No way!'
That hypocrite - smokes two packs a day
Man, living at home is such a drag
Now your mom threw away your best porno mag (Bust it!)
(repeat chorus)
Don't step out of this house if that's the clothes you're gonna wear
I'll kick you out of my home is you don't cut that hair
Your mom busted in and said, 'What's that noise?'
Aw, mom you're just jealous - it's the Beastie Boys!

I Need You
(Julie Miller)
I need something like morphine only better
I need something like a kiss that lasts forever
I need something like money that will not burn
I need something and I need more, more than I can earn
Chorus: I need something, what can I do?
Hey, I need something, I need you
I need something like a cure for my soul
I need something like amnesia, for things I know
I need something like a mother, 'cause I'm just a child
I need something like an asylum, 'cause I go wild
(repeat Chorus)
I need something like dynamite for the mess I'm in
I need something like a tattoo underneath my skin
I need something more than a lover in my bed
I need somebody here with me, here with me in my head
(repeat Chorus)
I need something bad and I need it now
I got something wrong with me, you can see
I think you better fix it 'cause I don't know how
Hey, I need something, what can I do
Hey, I need something, I need you
I need something, what can I do
Hey, I need something, I need you

Jealous Again
Cheat the odds that made you
Brave to try to gamble at times
Well I feel like dirty laundry
Sending sickness on down the line
Tell you why
cause Im jealous, jealous again
Thought it time I let you in
Yeah, Im jealous, jealous again
Got no time, baby
Always drunk on sunday
Tryn to feel like Im at home
Smell the gasoline burning
Boys out feeling nervous and cold
(repeat 1st chorus)
Stop, understand me
I aint afraid of losing face
Stop, understand me
I aint afraid of ever losing faith in you
Never felt like smiling
Sugar wanna kill me yet
Find me loose lipped and laughing
Singing songs aint got no regrets
(repeat 1st and 2nd chorus)
Dont you think I want to
Dont you think I would
Dont you think Id tell you baby
If I only could
Am I acting crazy
Am I just too proud
Am I just plain lazy
Am i, am i, am i, ever

The Wild Boys
Wild boys, wild boys, wild boys
Wild boys
Wild! (wild)
Boys! (boys)
The wild boys are calling on their way back from the fire
In august moons surrender to a dust cloud on the rise
Wild boys fallen far from glory, reckless and so hungered
On the razors edge you trail because theres murder (murder)
By the roadside in a sore afraid new world
They tried to break us, looks like theyll try again
Wild boys.. never lose it
Wild boys.. never chose this way
Wild boys.. never close your eyes
Wild boys.. always shine
You got sirens for a welcome, theres bloodstain for your pain
And your telephone been ringing while youre dancing in the rain
Wild boys wonder where is glory where is all you angels
Now the figureheads have fell?
And lovers war with arrows over secrets they could tell
They tried to tame you, looks like theyll try again

Cover Up
Cover up
With loving protection
Guard your love
In every direction CHORUS
Don't give up
For fear of rejection
Stand your ground and voice an objection
Run away my sister and brother
Be afraid of love when the lover VERSE 1
Tries to read the book by the cover
Wrapped up in the arms of another
(Repeat chorus)
Cover up prolonging the yearning
Just ahead the fires are burning VERSE 2
Swim for shore the tides are now turning
Love the ones you love with your learning
(Repeat chorus)
Look ahead the futures depending
On the brave to now start defending VERSE 3
Tell the world the message you're sending
We don't need an unhappy ending

To sit in the shade of the family tree

You tell me you love me
You tell me you care
But when Im around you, its like Im not there
I need a reminder, something I can see
Something on my finger, shining so brightly

Dont want your key

She's Gotta Be
So much for never makin' the same mistake
I can't believe I'm here again
So much for ever thinkin' that I could change
My good intentions still remain in chains
Chorus:
She's gotta be over me now
Probably moved on with her life
Found someone she knows she can believe
God I would give anything if I could just go back again
And be the man she needed me to be
I thought I was a hero
I played him well
He saves the day but not himself
I acted out the lover
My finest part
Had all the lines but not the heart
No look where we are
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Be the man that she could trust, who put her first
Who tamed his demons, who healed her hurts
In health and sickness, who helped her grow
With no resentment, true repentance, God as my witness
(REPEAT CHORUS TWICE)
She needed me to be
She needed me to be, oh
Whoa, hallelujah
Yeah, I could be that man she needed me, she needed me to be

Some Kinda Good Kinda Hold On Me
Shes got some kinda good kinda hold on me
Shes some kinda fine sho-nuff sweet
Wrapped up in her love is where I wanna be
Shes got some kinda good kinda hold on me
I cant get enought of my babys huggin and kissin
I never knew a girl who could do what shes doing to me
With just one touch she cast a spell
Im tangled up, I cant help myself

About the fun Ive been missing
They want to know why I let her keep me under lock and key
But I got what theyre looking for when she gets me behind closed doors

The Answer
I lie awake deep in the night,
Ooh thinking bout you always.
But time can paralyse,
Ive been lonely too long.
(CHORUS)
Im changing my life, looking for a reason to love.
Girl, take a look and maybe youll find,
That the answer to your heart is in mine.
Oh girl, you are the one, thats holding the fire.
Oh these feeling burning inside,
When I see the same in your eyes.

Woa, looking for the words to say, Im lost in your world.
Now I wanna live for my dream baby.

When I see the same in your eyes.

My Own Best Friend
Im beginning to like you
But, you know that aint right
cause youll just twist and twist and twist
Till Im all crooked inside
Then youll take all you gave me
Like it never was there
And I think that I might, no! I know
Yes, I will help you there
cause ...
Chorus
Ive done it before
And Id do it again
cause its the only time
That makes me feel like im
My own best friend
Im a victim of friction I just got too close to see
Yeah, we sparked in the dark and God hung a light on me
And the lamp gets real heavy and it hangs from my heart
And it comes, and it goes
Till I cant tell the difference apart
But ...

So many people say
Itll never work out that way
You cant stand the heat
While youre watching your heart
Just melt away in the basement
On a rainy day

Theres motel in shreveport
Dont ask me where, please

And she makes your bed slow
And she speaks, of the sheets that dont fit
But you know that she knows

Happy Ending
i may be a princess to you
but youre not a prince to me
no use rescuing me from a tower
im not there to be reascued too
my king youll never be
i dont believe in never say never
cant you see what im saying
[pre-chorus]
now is not the time
there is no time for you
oh
[chorus]
theres no time for your happy ending
youre happy ending is long gone and forgotten
its worth nothin'
mines worth somethin'
that love you sent isnt sending
like i said theres no time for your happy ending
some days ill try to break free
of this misery
some days ill try to find
a thought swarming in my mind
to say to you
i dont know what to do
[repeat pre-chorus and chorus]
there must be something going on
this dumb thing is making me run
what is that called again
oh yes a rumor
it must end sooner
ive counted rumors up to ten
[repeat pre-chorus and chorus]
you cant be happy when there is no happiness
you cant be angry when there is no angryness
you cant be sad when there is no sadness
you cant be mad when there is no madness
in the air
please dont look and stare
at me
please
[repeat pre-chorus and chorus]
no time i said for your happy ending

Whos That Man?
Chorus:
Know, dont you wanna know, dont you wanna know,
Know, whos that man?
Repeat
Verse one (kandi):
Hes got a different little style than other men today,
He does his thing with a swing.
And everything you see him do is in a different way,
You never ever seen before.
Bridge (latocha):
Hes not your ordinary slick uptown type of brother,
Dont think twice cause youll never find another.
Because the man behind the mask,
Youve never ever seen him before.
Repeat chorus
Verse two:
(all):
Hes got the flava to do his his thang,
Hes got something everybody wish they had,

And something tells me you dont wanna make him mad,
No you dont, no you dont, no you dont.
