Are you thinking about me? Are you talking about me, To your mom, and your dad and to all your friends in class? Are you thinking about me? Are you thinking about me, On the bus, in the car Am I everywhere you are? Are you thinking about me? Are you thinking about me? Do you whisper silently, Out my name, to your book? Am I everywhere you look? Are you thinking about me? I wanna see my name carved into a tree I want you to display your love publicly I want everyone to know, to know, to know You don't know what it's like being me The whole world says "You're ugly, you're ugly, you're ugly" Baby, you're ugly, you're ugly, you're ugly.

Bad Kids 03:36
To save my soul We'll have to compromise Evil takes hold Couldn't kick if I tried What makes a good kid bad? Is it mom or is it dad? Or the bands she listens to Late at night up in her room Doctor, if you think you know What has taken hold Of her heart, of her head Why she can't get out of bed Don't know if I'll make it through Small town Ontario Nothing to do If there's a party, let me know Walk hand in hand I feel like a little kid Maybe you'll teach me something My teachers never did Doctor, if you think you know What has taken hold Of my heart, of my head Why I can't get out of bed I got caught skipping school Bad kids do what they want to Oh, and if I wasn't going home You know I'd be coming over I got stuff I need to go Otherwise I'd be with you

Cock Rock 02:31
All of your symptoms Are pointing in on direction All of this sleeping in Do you think it might be depression Or are you bummed out, Cause being a girl is kind of shitty? Are you pissed off At your boring, conservative city? All of you reasoning Is leaving my head feeling heavy Girls don't know how to rock They're only good for going steady So are you bummed out, Cause being a girl is kind of shitty? Are you pissed off At your boring, conservative city? Where all the boys Run around with their guitars And everyone Looks at them like fucking stars

Conditions 02:49
I made the run away With two eyes shut and a knife My brittle bones will break Break under the weight of this night My secret slumber waits My well planned, dreamed escape And when sleep comes My body tired, will lie down wilingly And when dreams come Guilty freedom, washes over me We're all alone Hiding under covers in the dark With palms outstretched Waiting to receive what they're worth I can hold my own White at the knuckles White at the knucles And when sleep comes My body tired, will lie down wilingly And when dreams come Guilty freedom, washes over me

You punched a girl, said she had it coming And now everyone thinks you're a scum-bag And you know you are You know you are But everything blows over if you wait long enough You can do whatever if she doesn't make a fuss And you know you are You know you are One day they'll say he had it coming and be right And, maybe he shouldn't have stayed out all night Watching movie stars beat up on their wives Don't we know the difference between that and real life What was she wearing it's on everybody's mind "I think she's a tramp, and she's wasting time Who do you think you are, who do you think you are?" But everything blows over if you wait long enough You can fuck who ever if she doesn't make a fuss And you know you are, you know you are One day they'll say he had it coming and be right And, maybe he shouldn't have stayed out all night Watching movie stars beat up on their wives Don't we know the difference between that and real life Oh, what a joke What a well laid plan You didn't mean it, you didn't know Yeah, you're just man And we can't expect if we want dress like that To be left alone

Speak Slow 02:37
Speak slow, let every word Gently form and flow You don't need to waste your breath Telling me what I already know You could let me down easy And let me down fast Let me down holy And make me feel blessed For the privilege Deliver, don't run around Don't lay your pity on thick It's not the first time something came to nothing And it hurts, but I'm used to it So let me down easy And let me down fast Let me down holy And make me feel blessed For the privilege You won't get too far If you're afraid Yeah it's worse if you wait

You took it for granted And I always came, crawling back to you But you didn't know, that I could grow Into someone who could hurt you I"ll set you on fire You took me for a walk Around the block, of tough love Lesson learned I guess But you never though, that you could fall For me just like I fell for you I'll set you on fire I'll set you on fire Oh, and now you see When you're falling Faster than you want to On your downward move You got nothing to prove But everything to lose You took me for granted And I always came, I always came crawling back to you And now you feel the same You're calling me every day Well, I don't need you I'll set you on fire I'll set you on fire Oh, and now you see When you're falling Faster than you want to On your downward move You got nothing to prove But everything to lose
