Mira
Why do you look away when you see someone acting sad?
What are you afraid of?
I know, you're only looking out for yourself.
That, and/or the labels...
But look, when your sh*t hits the fan,
Don't be surprised when upon seeing you I ran.
Or is that too dramatic?
Or you want to be popular?
Yeah, we all do
Though we all deserve recognition.
You can't judge someone without even a passing stare.
And you know what? You become a sociopath if you don't care.
Stop quoting The Joker.
I do love it when he goes psycho- must be the media.
Sensationalist ratings (attention) -seeking effluvia.
Artifice of trends; plastic pollution; etc.

Stop Being So Dramatic
You tell me what you think and mean.
But why you don't,
Let it go!
When we're walking in the streets,
There's always a scene.
And under spotlight...
You begin your show.
Let it go.
Your past and those bitter things.
Let it go.
Why can't,
You let it go.
Does your happiness mean anything?
Then you've got to let stuff go!
Let it go.
Stop being so dramatic.
Let it go.
Stop being,
Those worst of fanatics.
Let it go.
Stop being so dramatic.
Let it go.
Stop being,
The worst of fanatics.
You spend your days fantasizing from your window.
Locked up tight without a social life.
And you tell 'me' I'm growing old.
But I'm not sitting with my eyes half closed.
Or watching my life pass by...
From a window.
Let it go.
Your past and those bitter things.
Let it go.
Why can't,
You let it go.
Let it go.
Stop being so dramatic.
Let it go.
Stop being,
The worst of fanatics.
Let it go.
Stop being so dramatic.
Let it go.
Stop being,
The worst of fanatics.
You tell me what you think and mean.
But why you don't,
Let it go!
Stop being so dramatic.
Let it go.
Stop being,
The worst of fanatics.
Let it go.
Stop being so dramatic.
Let it go.
Stop being,
The worst of fanatics.
You let life flow to pass you from your window!
Framed-in-pain...
Let it go!
Stop being so dramatic.
Let it go!
Stop being so dramatic.
Let it go!
Stop being so dramatic.
You need a hit to spark that light inside!
Let it go.
Stop being so dramatic.
Let it go!
Stop being,
The worst of fanatics.
You let life flow to pass you from your window!
Stop being so dramatic.
Stop being so dramatic.
Stop being so dramatic.
Stop being,
The worst of fanatics.

Extraordinary
You think that I go home at night
Take off my clothes, turn out the lights
But I burn letters that I write
To you, to make you love me
Yeah, I'd drive naked through the park
And run the stop sign in the dark
Stand in the street, yell out my heart
To you, to make you love me
I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho
You may not believe in me
But I believe in you
So I still take the trash out
Does that make me too normal for you?
So dig a little deeper, cause
You still don't get it yet
See me lickin' my lips, need a primitive fix
And I'll make, I'll make you love me
I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
See me jump through hoops for you
You stand there watching me performing
What exactly do you do?
Have you ever thought it's you that's boring?
Who the hell are you?
I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho
Average every day sane psycho

Plastic Man
A man lives at the corner of the street,
And his neighbors think hes helpful and hes sweet,
cause he never swears and he always shakes you by the hand,
But no one knows he really is a plastic man.
Hes got plastic heart, plastic teeth and toes,
(yeah, hes plastic man)
Hes got plastic knees and a perfect plastic nose.
(yeah, hes plastic man)
Hes got plastic lips that hide his plastic teeth and gums,
And plastic legs that reach up to his plastic bum.
(plastic bum)
Plastic man got no brain,
Plastic man dont feel no pain,
Plastic people look the same,
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Kick his shin or tread on his face,
Pull his nose all over the place,
He cant disfigure, or disgrace,
Plastic man (plastic man).
Hes got plastic flowers growing up the walls,
He eats plastic food with a plastic knife and fork,
He likes plastic cups and saucers cause they never break,
And he likes to lick his gravy off a plastic plate.
Plastic man got no brain,
Plastic man dont feel no pain,
Plastic people look the same,
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Kick his shin or tread on his face,
Pull his nose all over the place,
He cant disfigure, or disgrace,
Plastic man (plastic man).
Hes got a plastic wife who wears a plastic mac,
(yeah, hes plastic man)
And his children wanna be plastic like their dad,
(yeah, hes plastic man)
Hes got a phony smile that makes you think he understands,
But no one ever gets the truth from plastic man (plastic man)
Plastic man (plastic man).

Right on time
With a new song (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Now there's nothing in this life now that could go wrong
Oh no (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Not me (yeah you you you)
How could (yeah yeah yeah yeah)

The more I see
The more I want of you
I was afraid
I would be sad and lonely

You would not be my one and only
Well I got so hung
Now I'm gonna stake my pony
Oh no (yeah yeah yeah yeah)

Should I hide from it
Tired of it

Love Crime
I didnt know what to say
I tried to look the other way
When I saw you there with him
Acting like I dont care
But you can read from how I stare
That Im hurting deep inside
But even though you look so good tonight
Ill be fine
But I know that for you
To be here without me by your side
Its a love crime
Why you act so surprised
I can tell from the guilt in your eyes
Its a love crime to me
Love has never been good to me
Maybe its just my destiny
To live my life alone
Who was I trying to fool
Thinking our love would break the rule
Still Im standing on my own
And even though you look so good tonight
Ill be fine
But I know that for you
To be here without me by your side
Its a love crime
Why you act so surprised
I can tell from the guilt in your eyes
Its a love crime to me
Here I am not knowing
Tell me what to do
But I know that for you
To be here without me by your side
Its a love crime
Why you act so surprised
I can tell from the guilt in your eyes
Its a love crime to me

You Don't Know
Bryan:
Oh yeah yeah, yeah
Nobody knows me
Yet everyone knows my name
Some people judge me
Not knowing that Im the same
Thanks for the offer
But I keep my old friends, always
And then I get lonely
Counting the endless days
Are you here for me at all?
Do you care for me at all?
Well this time now I know
I aint standing alone no more
Cos all I want is love
Someone who can share the pain I feel
And the eyes that stare
Wont stare at me no more
Cos all I need is time
Time for me to open up and show
The person I am
The person you think you know
You dont know
You dont know
Mark:
Some heart felt emotion
Creeping from deep inside
Cos being this person
Is all Ive got left to hide
Are you here for me at all?
Did you care for me at all?
Last time I was told
I aint standing alone no more
All I need is love
Someone who can share the pain I feel
And the eyes that stare
Wont stare at me no more
And all I need is time
Time for me to open up and show
The person I am

Plastic
Oh a little bitty termite you know he come knockin' knockin' on my front door
Well he walked right in sat right down started chewin' on the kitchen floor
You know he chewed out the walls and the ceilings and the halls Lord knows he tried
But he kept gettin' thinner and he never got no dinner and finally he sat up and cried
He said it's plastic yeah he said it's plastic
Well you know it ain't no wood and it can't do me no good
Because it's plastic he said it's plastic
You know that everything's gonna be plastic by and by
Yeah an early one day in the month of May I went down to the beach
You know there were beauties and cuties in little bathin' suities
And all of them within my reach
Then a 38-24-36 miss just happened to be passin' my way
I said please don't think I'm nervy but you look so very curvy
Please tell me how you got that way
She said it's plastic she said it's just plastic
She said it's pretty as can be but you know that it ain't me
Because it's plastic she said it's plastic everything's gonna be plastic by and by

They Want You To Pay Them Attention
Why aren't you paying them any attention?
'Who? '
The ones ignoring you.
'Huh? '
Yeah!
They want you to pay them attention,
So they can ignore you.
'But...
Isn't that what they are doing? '
YES!
But you are not expected to show,
You could care less about it!
'Oh...
I see.
So...
Maybe they are the ones seeking attention,
And giving it to me...
In the hopes I notice it.
But pretend I don't suspect it is from them.'
I don't know!
Is that the message you want me to deliver?
'Huh?
When did the minding of my own business,
Become their focus? '
Don't ask me!
I was told to get you to look their way.
So they can ignore you!

I really love to act; I love everything about it. I've never had this addiction to being known. I mean, sure, if you go into acting, there's part of you that is saying, 'I want attention' but I was brought up to work to deserve attention, and it is the work, not the trappings that are important.

Popularity Bestowed
To declare someone or a thing done,
As popular...
Is a point of view.
Like a fad one embraces,
Until the taste of it is replaced...
By something else considered fresh,
And updated.
In some schools these 'labels' given,
Hold true too.
With a giving of attention...
To a uniqueness that is mentioned.
That others may attempt to replicate.
But when something is determined by some,
To become popular...
Others may perceive that a popularity bestowed,
May go to one's head to marinate to stay.
To carry around without sleep.
With a thought of this believed.
To be accepted as received.

Valuable
People judge me by the outer personality. However, what's in my heart is something which nobody actually sees. I never want to hurt anyone, just want to care and love, with my true feelings forever. I may appear to you as a psycho although can a crazy person actually know the value of love? Just think for once, then you will get the answer. I can care, I can love, like none can since I know one thing that love which is true can never ever be purchased through valuables. Love is truly valuable for me.

Plastic passion is a hard to handle
Plastic passion is a sold out scandal
Oh it's a plastic passion

Plastic passion is the ladies lover
Plastic passion is the marble mother
Oh it's a plastic passion

Plastic passion is a diamond delight
Plastic passion is the nadir of night
Oh it's a plastic passion
It's a plastic passion
It's a plastic passion
Plastic passion is a hycoscine heart
Plastic passion is a transparent tart
Oh it's a plastic passion

I don't care. I don't care. I don't care.
I don't care. Care if I'm old. I don't mind.
I don't mind. I don't mind. I don't mind. Mind.
Don't have a mind. Get way. Get way. Get way.
Get way. Way from your home. I'm afraid. I'm afraid.
I'm afraid. I'm afraid. Afraid of a ghost.
Even if you have. Even if you need.
I don't mean to stare. We don't have to breed.
We can plant a house. We can build a tree.
I don't even care. We could all three.

Take Care Of Yourself
Are you ready?
(yeah yeah)
Are you ready to rock?
(yeah yeah)
Do you wanna do it?
(yeah yeah)
Get down on it?
(yeah yeah)
Marching clock now he dont stop,
Seen it quite a lot
And he says take care of yourself,
Old man sighs, shuts his eyes
And leaves behind another life
Take care of yourself,
Millstones swing, grind your thing
Pay the tax and alimony.
Take care of yourself,
Raise that boy, hell go far
cos he had a real good teacher.
Take care of yourself
Truth dont go, dont go far
Sell a lie to any paper.
Take care of yourself.
Sleep too deep, zombie sleep,
And all alone it has to be.
Take care of yourself.
Peace of mind is hard to find
But he dont mind like you dont mind yall
Big t dont care that you dont mind
No she dont care and you dont matter
One nine nine oh here we go
May the next ten break the mould
Take care of yourself
Mister goods gone away
Looking out for number one says
Take care of yourself
Did she say where youd have to stay
When the partys over?
Can you face the longest march to come
Now you know youre not the number one?
Yeah yeah
(feel all right? )
Yeah yeah
(you know its packing in your mind? )
Yeah yeah
(but the hero says)

Baited By Ratings (The Defamation Game)
Baited by ratings,
And driven to satiate...
The entertainment of news.
And what and who produces the best,
Net worth.
At the sacrifice of substance.
Feeding those obstinate.
With desires that are decadent.
Baited by ratings,
And driven to satiate...
Public revelations,
Of those raise to heights.
Those selected to be judged and smeared.
By those electing to delight from the blight.
Baited by ratings,
And driven to satiate...
On gossip that's dropped.
With nonstop dollars...
Given to the media on top,
Of the defamation game.
