Piano Prodigy

I waited seven years
I shed exactly eleven tears
Before they shipped me off
To the land of Rachmaninov
Ten hours every day
I would sit on that bench and play
Beethoven, Mozart, and Bach
I barely ate, I forgot how to talk, yeah.
I waited seven years, before by the pressure of peers
I entered my high school talent show
That spotlight shown so bright, but I managed to play it right
I entered my school hall of fame.
Piano prodigy, fingers flying all over the keys
Can you keep playing without a light?
Piano prodigy, will you write me a symphony?
Those skills with those trills are just out of sight.
I waited seven years, before confirming my parents' fears
I saw a guitar from so far away.
Those strings they shown so bright
and I managed to play it right
I entered the world hall of fame.
Piano prodigy, fingers flying all over the keys
Can you keep playing without a light?
Piano prodigy, will you write me a symphony?
Those skills with those trills are just out of sight.

Get a Room

Get a room, get a room
Get a room, get a room
Get a room, get a room
Get a room, get a room
I don't care about your bodies
romances or one night stands
just get a room
Get a room, get a room
Get a room, get a room
Get a room, get a room
Get a room, get a room
Room get a room get a room
Get a room, get a room
I don't have any prospects
I don't have any net to break my fall
I don't have any love connections
Or many corrections
Don't have anything at all
So rub it all in my face
So your passionate taste
For each other's meals
You make me want to throw up
My P.F. Chang drinking cup
And Wendy's dollar deals
Get a room, get a room
Get a room, get a room
Get a room, get a room
Get a room, get a room
Room get a room get a room
Get a room, get a room
It's kind of true that I'm jealous
And kind of true that what you're doing
Is just plain wrong
They've got plenty of inventions
Like locks and keys to muffle your song
So get out of my place
Buckle up tight your lace
And leave a tip in the jar
Because I came here to play
For ladies eating fillets and girls driving cool cars
I don't have any prospects
I don't have any net to break my fall
I don't have any love connections
Or many corrections
Don't have anything at all
So rub it all in my face
So your passionate taste
For each other's meals
You make me want to throw up
My P.F. Chang drinking cup
And Wendy's dollar deals
Get a room, get a room
Get a room, get a room
Get a room, get a room
Get a room, get a room
Room get a room get a room
Get a room, get a room
Get a room, get a room

Nancy

It was a Monday, a simple Monday
I walked into my favorite 7-11
And there to greet me, not Dimitri
But a face that seemed to burn at 5,000 degrees kelvin
I'm not a big of your fat face wearing that fake tan
As you growl at me, one more send please
My dear Nancy
Why did you have to be so very rude to me?
My dear Nancy
If it was not for you I'd be as happy as I could be
There was a day I thought I'd see your face
No, no more
I thought you'd walked out my front door
But you came again it meant again
I guess that I just cannot win
You toss me into the trash bin
I'm not a big of your fat face wearing that fake tan
As you growl at me, one more send please
My dear Nancy
Why did you have to be so very rude to me?
My dear Nancy
If it was not for you I'd be as happy as I could be
My dear Nancy
Why did you have to be so very rude to me?
My dear Nancy
If it was not for you I'd be as happy as a man could be

Train Man

There's a man in the desert whose gone insane
You can find him every day in the second lane
He wears a hat to hide his shame
No one even bothers to know his name
Distance dweller, what's your name?
Distance dweller, what's your game?
This man in the desert whose gone insane
I found him one day in the second lane
When I saw him sitting there I asked his name
But he ran off in a hurry to catch his train
Distance dweller, what's your name?
Distance dweller, what's your game?
Distance dweller, what's your name?
Distance dweller, what's your game?
What's your game?

American Dream
02:37
|

It's time you confined your smiling face
To an office space
The race is all but won
Just kick all the fun out the door
We've got clocks so you can watch
Your life ticking away
You can stare at the screen
But don't ever believe what they say
I'm Just another victim to the bigger system
Why would I see the debris
When all I care about is money
You've got your smiles and I've got my miles
All I've done, see, is followed my American Dream
We came here for love we came here for life
We find at home a big screen tv and wife
All but lost in the pixels
Their tricks will deceive and destroy
Why did I ever believe
In history jokes and trigonometry
Bring about more than sore eyes and broken hearts
I'm Just another victim to the bigger system
Why would I see the debris
When all I care about is money
You've got your smiles and I've got my miles
All I've done, see, is followed my American Dream
Just another victim to the bigger system
Why would I see the debris
Well all I care about is money
You've got your smiles and I've got my miles
All I've done, see, is follow my American Dream
Yeah, I'll follow my American Dream
It's time you confined your smiling face
To an office space
The race is all but won
Just kick all the fun out the door
We've got clocks so you watch
Your life ticking away
You can stare at the screen
But don't don't ever believe what they say

Tatoos and piercings
I'm gonna start a Ska band now
Me in a band, we're singing
I'm gonna start a Ska band now
I'm gonna make lots of money
I'm gonna meet lots of honeys
As I say with my dying breath
Give me Ska or give me death
No food no money
I'm gonna start a Ska band now
Me in my band with the horns real loud
I'm gonna start a Ska band now
I'm gonna make lots of money
I'm gonna meet lots of honeys
As I say with my dying breath
Give me Ska or give me death
But I can't play a single instrument
Why must I go through this torment
But I can't play a single instrument
Why must I go through this torment
Tatoos and piercings
I'm gonna start a Ska band now
Me in a band with the horns real loud
I'm gonna start a Ska band now
Start a Ska band now
Start a Ska band now

Model Rocket

Model rocket
I was in my basement yesterday
I built a model rocket
I was in my basement yesterday
I picked it up so I could launch it
When something goes awry most people turn and run
But my philosophy is stay or miss all the fun
If you don't believe me, just ask my Auntie Ann
She smiles incessantly since her head met my fan
Model rocket
Model rocket
Model rocket
Model rocket
I was in my basement yesterday
I built a model rocket
I was in my basement yesterday
Made a hole so I could launch it
Some people probably think that I'm a lunatic
Hiding downstairs with super glue and lightning sticks
But I will swear that I'm as sane as Auntie Ann
Five-hundred accidents she's still my biggest fan
Model rocket
Model rocket
Model rocket
Model rocket
One day I started to make a model rocket for my Auntie Ann
Because every experiment goes terribly wrong
So I glue it, move it, and shoot it into the air
And it blew up right in the house and it killed the cat
She said that's the last time that you build a model rocket
Do you hear me?
Model rocket
Model rocket
Model rocket
Model rocket
