I know she can’t be trusted, but can he trusted, I don’t know
I know he can’t be trusted, but can she be trusted, I don’t know
And if they ever decide to make this thing official, will either one of them make it out alive, I don’t know
He says he likes it rough, the only way he can get off, I don’t know
So she starts to choke him out, as she starts going down, I don’t know
He’s gagged and bound to the bed and never been more turned on, will either one of them make it out alive, I don’t know
He’s lying on his back as everything starts to fade to black, I don’t know
He says he’ll stay this way now that he can finally be himself, I don’t know
And if they ever decide to make this thing official, will either one of them make it out alive, I don’t know

Summertime

Counting down the days, until summer is here
Down in the water, catching all the waves is where you’ll find me
And all the girls in town are laying out in their bikinis
Spring and fall are ok, winter sucks and so it’s clear, summer is the very best time of the year
Camping with the boys, drinking ‘round the fire is alright
But laying with your girl, underneath the stars is out of sight
None of these things you can do unless warmer weather is here
And that’s why summer is the very best time of the year
Gimme, gimme, gimme summer
Gimme, gimme, gimme summer
Gimme, gimme, gimme summer
I need summer now
It’s too cold in this state
So come before it’s too late
And that’s why I’m counting down the days until summer is here
Don’t try and argue, cuz you know I’ll prove you wrong now
Summer is coming, no it won’t be too long now
Spring and fall are ok, winter sucks and so it’s clear, summer is the very best time of the year

Hey Doll
03:30

I see you walking down the street, and I wonder where you’re going, and if I can go there too
I walk up to you armed with my best pick up line, but when I look at you I lose my mind
Do you wanna have some fun with me
Could you really be the one
Then I say to you
Hey doll, whatcha doin tonight, cuz you’re the prettiest sight that I’ve ever seen oh yeah, you gotta believe me
Hey doll can I hold your hand, I wanna be your man, I ain’t looking for a one night stand
I know we just met, but I recognize those eyes, I swear, I’ve seen them somewhere before
I don’t mean to be so forward, but I got nothing to lose, and this feeling is way too hard to ignore

Kidd’s got the guns, I got the bags, The 1-2 Manys are tired of working for the man
Dan keeping watch, Murph behind the wheel, hope it doesn’t come to this, but we ain’t afraid to kill
Everyone stay calm, listen to what we say, as long as everything goes smooth, no one is gunna die today
Everyone stay calm, listen to what we say, put all the money in the bags and we’ll be on our way
All it takes is one job
All it takes is one job, one job and everything is gunna be ok
Now we got the dough, and it’s time to go, I think that we all know that Johnny Law is on his way
Jump in the car, Murph hits the gas, doesn’t take long before we hear those sirens blast
But we all stay calm, cuz there ain’t no way
Yeah we all stay calm, cuz there ain’t none of those coppers gunna lock us up today
No way!

Can't Believe
01:29

Can’t believe it’s been two years since I met you, and now I can’t believe after this time that we’ve come so far
Can’t believe it all started by asking for a vanilla blonde, and most of all I can’t believe that you’re still with me
I know we’ve had our ups and downs, in fact one time you kicked me out, and please don’t get me wrong it was deserved
Can’t believe you took me back believing we’d get back on track, and now I’ll make sure it’s a choice you won’t regret
There are times when I’m alone that I sit back and wonder what exactly it is that you see in me
Then I think to myself, well fuck that cuz I think we both can agree that you’ve never had it so good
Whether we are crushing pills so that we can snort them, or locking ourselves in the bathroom so we can get high
Long rides on my motorcycle, or making each other cum, I think we can admit that we’re having lots of fun
I can’t wait to see
I can’t wait to see
I can’t wait to see
I can’t wait to see
Where we go, go from here, cuz anything can happen whenever we hit the town

She gets on the train and heads downtown to the Union Station
She says that it doesn’t bother me after all it pays the bills so how can I complain, but
No one is safe around here, don’t know what goes on around here, you should never be alone
This is just her first stop it’s not going not be her last stop, she gets on the bus to the Library Building
She looks out the tower, counts down the hours, and gets home in time just to do it all again
She goes in and out of sanity, she’s not alone just a victim of the city
She’s never been one to ask or beg for help, but after ten long years she’s got no option left

Do you wanna, do you wanna go to the sock hop with me
Do some dancing, maybe romancing at the sock hop with me
And if you’ll wear my pin around
Then I will be the luckiest boy in town
Do you wanna, do you wanna go to the sock hop with me
Dancin really close, gunna wanna take off your clothes at the sock hop with me
It’s not enough to say I think you’re swell
Cuz when it comes to love I already fell
I fell in love with you
At the sock hop
In love with you
At the sock hop
In love with you
At the sock hop
In love with you
At the sock hop
And if everything goes right, we’ll be goin steady by the end of the night

Gotta get away, gotta get away, gotta gotta
Gotta get away, gotta get away, gotta gotta
Gotta get away, gotta get away, gotta gotta
Gotta get away, gotta get away, gotta gotta
Gotta get away from you
What do I do, why do I try
When I know everything is just a lie
Did you ever really love me
Don’t answer that cuz I gotta be free
Cuz now I know that I gotta get away from you
Now I’m sitting in my room
Listening to records that make me think about you
Drop that needle, ain’t gunna cry
Cuz everything is gunna be alright
Cuz now I know that I gotta get away from you

Wanna Be Bad
03:15

From the moment that you walked into the room
I couldn’t seem to take my eyes off of you
I glanced over just to see how you move
All I could think about is what I wanna do
I see the way that you’re looking at me
Behind those eyes, yeah you wanna be set free
So take my hand and let me show you the moon
Cuz I just wanna be bad with you
What’s the use in hiding it we already know
Tonight’s the night that you’re gunna take me home
Throw back another shot of Kentucky whiskey
I turn around, you’re standing right in front of me, and you say

I Think You're Groovy
02:03
|

|
All my friends say you’ll never stay
They laugh at me and they call me names
But I don’t care what they say, I think you’re groovy
Daydreaming all about our fun
I’m losing punk points, one by one
But I don’t care anyway, I think you’re groovy
And if you would just hold my hand
And tell the world I am your man
Cuz I, I think you’re groovy
I think you’re groovy
You’re my dummy girl
You send my heart in a whirl
I think I’ll follow you around the world
I think you’re groovy
What can I say, I guess I’m hooked
You can read me like the cover of a book
So why do I bother hiding it, I think you’re groovy

Say hey girl, whatcha doing do you wanna get out of here
Say hey girl, whatcha thinking are you handling more than you can bare
So come with me
Gunna set you free
Let’s go for a motorcycle ride
Hop on the back girl, and everything will be alright
Wanna feel the wind blow through your hair
Don’t care where we go, let’s get out of here
Let’s go!
Aren’t you sick of all the bullshit that’s pouring down like rain
So let’s get our asses out of here, before we go insane

Wish there was something I could say hasn’t been said before
I feel like a broken record staring at the floor
But I ain’t got a clue just how to make it work with you
So I wonder does this mean that we’re though
What now, are we through
What now, are we through
What now, are we through
Days go by without a word said that’s how we get along
One of these days I’m afraid I’ll go off just like a bomb
