Get It
I turn on the tube and do I see A whole lotta cryin' "Don't blame me" They point their crooked little fingers ar else Spend all their time feelin' for themselves Victim of this, of that Your momma's too your daddy's too fat Get it Get it All this whinin' and cryin' and a fit Get over it, get it You say you haven't the same since you had your little crash But you might feel better if I gave you some The more I think about it, Old Billy was Let's kill all the lawyers, 'em tonight You don't to work, you want to live like a king But the big, bad doesn't owe you a thing Get it Get it If you don't want to play, then you might as well Get over it, Get it It's like to confession every time I hear you speak You're makin' the most of your streak call it sick, but I call it weak You drag it like a ball and chain You in the guilt; you wallow in the pain You wave it like a flag, you it like a crown Got your mind in the gutter, everybody down Complain the present and blame it on the past I'd like to find your inner child and its little ass Get it Get it All this bitchin' and moanin' and a fit Get it, get over it Get it Get it It's stop sometime, so why don't you quit Get it, get over it

The Girl From
It wasn't reall sad the way said good-bye Or maybe it just hurt so bad she cry He packed his things, walked out the and drove away And she the girl from yesterday He took a across the sea To some foreign She stayed at and tried to understand How someone who had so close could be so far away And she became the girl yesterday She know what's right She know what's wrong She only knows the that comes from waiting for so long And she doesn't count the That she's cried while he's Because she knows in her heart That he'll be back The light's on in the she's waiting by the phone Talking to a memory that's coming home She dreams of his returning and the that he might say But she'll always be the girl from Yeh, she'll always be the from yesterday
To Be Still
It's another day in paradise As you to your bed You'd anything to silence Those ringing in your head You thought you find happiness Just that green hill You you would be satisfied But you will- to be still We are like sheep without a We don't how to be alone So we wander 'round this And wind up following the wrong gods But the flock out for another And they keep answering that And one more starry-eyed Meets a farewell- Learn to be Learn to be Now the flowers in your They smell so sweet Maybe forgotten The heaven at your feet There are so contridictions In all these messages we (We asking) How do I get out of do I fit in? Though the is torn and shaken Even if heart is breakin' waiting for you to awaken And someday you to be still Learn to be You keep on runnin' on runnin'
Tequila
