Why Would You Wanna Live
It's all happened here before.
I know you've seen it too.
I know you've seen it too.
And it's all happened to you.
Kid you've paid your dues.
Dues and dues.
Why would you wanna live in this world?
Why would you wanna live in this world?
I know you watch the news.
I've seen it too.
I've seen it too.
And it's all happened to you.
Kid you've paid your dues.
Dues and dues.
Why would you wanna live in this world?
Why wouldn't you wanna live in this world?
Wouldn't you wanna live

Somebody Out There
Who cares what I'm gonna do
Without you, without you
Who cares if I blow a few
Without you, without you
I go run after dark
I know you heard it all before
I'm doing fine without you
On my own
What do you expect of me
You used to run, used to be
Got my own life without you
(Now I know)
I've made it through
I paid my dues
There's somebody out there
And black and blue
And so confused
There's somebody out there
And so a few are born to lose
Getting me nowhere
I've made it through
I paid my dues
There's somebody out there
Who cares what you're gonna be
You're without me, you're without me
Who cares if you're coming clean?
You're without me, you're without me
You go run after dark
I think I heard it all before
I'm doing fine without you
(On my own)
What am I supposed to say
I'm used to all the games you play
I'm doing all right without you
(Now I know)
I've made it through
I paid my dues
There's somebody out there
And black and blue
And so confused
There's somebody out there
And all of you are born to lose
Getting me nowhere
I've made it through
I paid my dues
There's somebody out there
It's been weighing on my mind
And taking up my day
Then I opened up my eyes
Nothing left to say
I wanna take the time to find
Can you help me on my way
So if you push me down in time
I've made it through
I paid my dues
There's somebody out there
And black and blue
And so confused
There's somebody out there
And all of you are born to lose
Getting me nowhere
I've made it through
I paid my dues
There's somebody out there
There's somebody out there
There's somebody out there

I Wanna Live
Written by john loudermilk
Flowers have blooms, the oceans have waves.
The sky has the clouds, people have babes
I wanna live, till I get old
I wanna watch all of this grow.
I wanna live, live and let live.
I want the love this life has to give.
I wanna smile and be friendly with you.
I wanna live and let you live some too
Rover is big, teddy is small.
Betty is short, jimmy is tall.
They wanna live, live and let live.
They want all the love this life has to give.
They wanna smile be friendly with you.
They wanna live that you live too.

I dont wanna go
(go without you, go without you)
I dont wanna be alone
Verse1:
When we hooked up
We sat down
Made an agreement
We vowed that
That wed always be together
Through whatever
We said that no one ever would
Get between us
So love will never ever leave us
That was a while ago,oh
But now lately
It feels like
I mean I feel like
All we do is fight
Every single night
Cant make it tight
Cant get it right
I just wanna go back
Take it way back
All the way back
Can we start again?
Do it over?
Can we straighten it out?
Can we work it out?
Chorus 2x:

I cant feel without you, deal without you
Spend without you

When I spend my last time to be in your life

Where did we go wrong?
We both made mistakes
We gotta carry on)

I Wanna Be the Girl
i wanna be the girl you write songs about
I wanna be the girl you can't live without
I wanna be the girl on the radio
I wanna be that girl you know
I wanna be the intimidating one
I wanna be the one you love
I wanna be the one you can't get over how she looked at you today
I wanna be that girl
I wanna be the girl you tell your mom about
i wanna be the girl you watch walk away
I wanna be the girl you always point out
I wanna be the girl who never heard what you had to say
I wanna be the girl you write songs about
I wanna be the girl you cab't live without
I wanna be the girl on the radio
I wanna be that girl you know
I wanna be that girl
You know the one i mean
I wanna be the girl
You know the one you know
I wanna be the girl who changed your life
I wanna be the girl who's not quite right
I wanna be the girl in your dreams
I wanna be the girl you beg 'be with me'
I wanna be the girl who stands out
I wanna be the one you can't live without
God, I want to be he
I'm so jealous of that girl
I wanna be the girl you write songs about
I wanna be the girl you can't live without
I wanna be the girl on the radio
i wanna be that girl, that girl you know

My Gang
Have you changed your world
You changed your view
Cause what you see
Is black and blue
White on the left
Black on the right
Nothing seems to fit
On a new york night
Have you heard the news
Are you talking to me
I said hey there honey do you like what you see
Read about it, it never fails
We dont doubt it, its in the mail
So you wanna be in my gang
Youd better think it through
Yeah you wanna be in my gang
You have to pay your dues
We sleep at night
On a bed of nails
All I know
Babys got some thrills
White on the left
Black on the right
Nothing seems to fit
On a new york night
Have you heard the news
Are you talking to me
I said hey there honey do you like what you see
Read about it, it never fails
We dont doubt it, its in the mail
So you wanna be in my gang
Youd better think it through
Yeah you wanna be in my gang
You have to pay your dues

Dues
I think Im headed for a terrible accident.
Made more plans than anyone who ever paid their rent.
Im not stupid and I might be havin too much pride.
Surgeon general has determined that I may as well die.
Jesus are you watching or have you gone blind.
Evil souls are upon us and were surely runnin out of time.
Chorus
I tried religion and some holy roller steals my tenth.
In the grave yard I aint strong enough to jump the fence.
Some men they say they got more soul than both my shoes.
Makes me wonder can we ever stop payin dues.
I might be workin on a scene that I can never act.
Everybodys gonna think that my mind is cracked.
I dont care because its my right to win or lose.
Makes me wonder can we ever stop payin dues.
Crazy, am I crazy for wanting so much more.
My mind says I cant ever give up but I still cant be sure.
Chorus
Can we ever stop payin dues.
Can we ever stop payin dues.
Can we ever stop payin dues.

I May Be Thinking of You Now
And I may be thinking of you now,
But tomorrow...
That thought's gonna go!
And I may want you more than ever,
This hour...
With a ticking that's slow.
I don't know.
But you're not gonna rob my time!
After all we've been through!
And you,
May see me and ask...
If I,
Am doing okay.
I am!
And you...
May wanna stray,
Just to see...
If you can get in my way.
No...
That door has long been closed.
Not to be reopened.
And we won't open it.
I refuse...
To pay more dues,
Today!
Baby...bay-be!
And that door has closed,
Keeping my heart from being decayed.
Baby...bay-be!
And we won't open it.
I refuse...
To pay more dues,
Today!
Baby...bay be!
No we won't open it.
I refuse...
To pay more dues,
Today!

I Don't Want To Grow Up
When I'm lyin' in my bed at nite
I don't wanna grow up
Nothing ever seems to turn out right
And I don't wanna grow up
How do you move in a world of fog that's always changing things
Makes the wish that I could be a dog
When I see the price that you pay
I don't wanna grow up
I don't ever wanna be that way
And I don't wanna grow up
Seems that folks turn into things that they never want
The only thing to live for is today...
I'm gonna put a hole in my T.V. set
I don't wanna grow up
Open up the medicine chest
I don't wanna grow up
I don't wanna have to shout it out
I don't want my hair to fall out
I don't wanna be filled with doubt
I don't wanna be a good boy scout
I don't wanna have to learn to count
I don't want the biggest amount
No I don't wanna grow up
Well when I see my parents fight
I don't wanna grow up
They all go out and drinkin' all night
And I don't wanna grow up
I'd rather stay here in my room
Nothin' out there but sad and gloom
I don't wanna live in a big old tomb on grand street
When I see the 5 o'clock news
I don't wanna grow up
Comb their hair and shine their shoes
I don't wanna grow up
Stay around in my old hometown
I don't wanna put no money down
I don't wanna get me a big old loan
Work them fingers to the bone
I don't wanna float on a broom
Fall in love

New Disease
I heard the news today
All about your new disease
This is what you said you wanted
When you walked away from me
I heard the news today
Yeah i know what your friends all say
That i'm gonna go to hell, they're all probably right
I just wanna go to hell my way
I just wanna do it my way
I heard the news today
All about your new romance
There is always gonna be someone better than me
I guess i never had a chance
Yes i heard the news today
You were livin' by the sound of the bell
I still believe that life gets better when you tell the world to go to hell
Oh i don't wanna play your game
I don't wanna live that way
I don't wanna do what you tell me to do
I don't fit inside the box you've made
No i don't wanna play your game
No i will never live that way
I don't wanna do what you tell me to do
I just want to do it my way
Yes i heard the news today
You've got scars on your hands and knees
You never would have been so ovbious when i was a new disease
Yes i heard the news today
You were livin' by the sound of a bell
I still believe that life gets better when you tell the world to go to hell
Oh i don't wanna play your game
I don't wanna live that way
I don't wanna do what you tell me to do
I don't fit inside the box you've made

I Just Wanna Live
I Just Wanna Live
I need an a-larm system in my house
So I know when people are
Creeping about
These people are
Freaking me out
(these days)
It's getting hectic everywhere that I go
They won't leave me alone
There's things they all wanna know
I'm paranoid off all the people I meet
Why are they talking to me?
And why can't anyone see
I just wanna live
Don't really care about the things that they say
Don't really care about what happens to me
I just wanna live
Just wanna live [x6]
I rock a
Lawsuit when I'm going to court
A white suit when I'm gettin' divorced
A black suit at the funeral home
And my birthday suit when I'm home alone
Talkin' on the phone
Got an interview
With the rolling stone
They're saying
Now you're rich and
Now you're famous
fake ass girls all know your names and
Lifestyles of the rich and famous
your first hit aren't you a-shamed?
Of the life [x2]
Of the life you're livin'
I just wanna live
Don't really care about the things that they say
Don't really care about what happens to me
I just wanna live
Stop your messin' around boy
Better think a your future
Better make some good plans boy
Said everyone of my teachers
Lookout
You better play it safe
You never know what hard times will come your way
We say
Where we're coming from
We've already seen
The worst that this life can bring
Now we're expected everywhere that we go
All the things that they say
Yeah we already know
I just wanna live
Don't really care about the things that they say
Don't really care about what happens to me
Just wanna live [x3]
I just wanna live
Just wanna live [x3]
I just wanna live
Just wanna live [x3]
Don't really care about the things that they say
Just wanna live [x3]
Don't really care about what happens to me

Immortal
Released on the cd-single for goodbye
Do you have the will to walk on water
Do you have the strength to part the waves
Do you have the lips to kiss a blood red rose
fore the colors start to fade
But are you tough enough to walk through the fire
Are you (? ? ? ) split the hangmans noose
Wanna ride, gonna slide, take it over the line
Hit the pin, kick it in
Im gonna win again
I dont wanna live forever
I just want a slice of the pie to call my own
I dont wanna live forever
Do you wanna be, like I wanna be
Immortal
Do you have the bread to feed the hunger
Do you have to choose to turn water to wine
Do you have the tears to cry me a river
Build a bridge to the other side
But are you holding out for the late edition
Gonna read all about it cause its frontpage news
So high, bone dry, got a thirst for life
Kiss the skin, drink it in
Im gonna win again
I dont wanna live forever
I just want a slice of the pie to call my own
I dont wanna live forever
Do you wanna be, like I wanna be
Immortal
Just like the gates of heaven
Theres no way back, theres no way back
Im ten miles high got the keys to the kingdom
Im back on track
Got a life and Im living it
Do you have the (game? ? ) to the tell me a secret
Or will I read all about it when its frontpage news
Wanna ride, gonna slide, take it over the line
Hit the pin, kick it in
Im gonna win again
I dont wanna live forever
I just want a slice of the pie to call my own
I dont wanna live forever
Do you wanna be, like I wanna be
I dont wanna live forever
I just want a slice of the pie to call my own
I dont wanna live forever
Do you wanna be, like I wanna be immortal
I dont wanna live forever
Cause I wanna be immortal
Do you wanna be immortal
I dont wanna live forever
Like I wanna be immortal
Dont you wanna be immortal

Cause I wanna be immortal

18 Til I Die
Wanna be young - the rest of my life
Never say no - try anything twice
Til the angels come - and ask me to fly
Gonna be 18 til I die - 18 til I die
Can't live forever - that's wishful thinkin'
Who ever said that - must of bin' drinkin'
Don't wanna grow up - I don't see why
I couldn't care less if time flies by
Chorus
18 til I die - gonna be 18 til I die
Ya it sure feels good to be alive
Someday I'll be 18 goin' on 55! - 18 til I die
Anyway - I just wanna say
Why bother with what happened yesterday
That's not my style - I live for the minute
If ya wanna stay young - get both feet in it - 18 til I die
A 'lil bit of this - a 'lil bit of that
'Lil bit of everything - get ya right on track
It's not how ya look

All I want is a real fast car
I wanna go too fast - I wanna go too far
I wanna take a bite of this sweet sweet life
While the gettin is good and the time right
I wanna fill my cup - I wanna drink it up.
I dont wanna live forever
I just wanna go for broke
Gonna ride thru any kind of weather
Go out in a cloud of smoke
I dont wanna live - dont wanna live forever
Dont wanna live - dont wanna live forever
All I need is a good excuse
You can cut my reins and turn me loose
Im gonna pull my weight Im gonna push my luck
Im gonna go down fightin when my time is up
You know I dont care - Im gonna get my share.
I dont wanna live forever

Swim
could not believe
came here today
helmet was on
you blew me away
house is on fire
we're naked again
maybe all we need
is water and friends
shackles and chains
won't keep me away
temple is you
and my brow is insane
I wanna be just like you
I wanna feel right through you
I wanna see just with you
I wanna live
I wanna die you
thinning ice
14 hairdryers
swimming to you
flame on earth desire
poor on the rise
rich on the fall
this cripple's with you
fame is a whore
I wanna fit inside you
I wanna room inside you
if money talks I wanna buy you
I wanna die
I wanna die
I wanna live you

Can't Keep
I wanna shake
I wanna wind out
I wanna leave
This mind and shout
I've lived
All this life
Like an ocean
In disguise
I don't live for
Ever
You can't keep
Me here
I wanna race
With the sundown
I want a last breath
Forgive
Every being
The bad feelings
It's just me
I won't wait
For answers
You can't keep
Me here
I wanna rise
And say goodnight
Wanna take
A look on the other side
I've lived
All those lives
It's been wonder
Full at night
I will live for
Ever
You can't keep

I Wanna Live
I've been thinking it over
And I know just what to do
I've been thinking it over
And I know I just can't trust myself
I'm a Gypsy prince
Covered with diamonds and jewels
But then my lover exposes me
I know I'm just a damn fool
I give what I've got to give
I give what I need to live
I give what I've got to give
It's important if I want to live
I wanna live
I want to live my life
I wanna live
I want to live my life
As I load my pistol
Fine German steel
I never thought I'd be so down and out
Having my last meal
But I know I can do it
It just took a few years
As I execute my killer
The morning is near
I give what I've got to give
I give what I need to live
I give what I've got to give
It's important if I want to live
I wanna live
I want to live my life
I wanna live
