INTRO
When we're ready to sing, we step up to the microphones
And it comes out something like this
COME OUT SWINGING
You brace and hold it all inside
It's more than you can stand
No one around even tries
Tries to understand
Don't turn away, don't turn away
Come out swinging, come out alone
They're in your way, they're in your way
But as long as you're swinging
Strong then you'll get by
Your pacing's wearing out a line
Right beside your bed
The scene replays a million times
Stuck inside your head
And though you stand in place, your mind escapes
Read beetween the lines
Smile's on your face
You fake like you're ok
Don't turn away, don't turn away
Come out swinging, out on your own
They're in your way, they're in your way
You may be stinging, but you'll get by
Don't turn away, don't turn away
Come out swinging, never alone again
The pain inside can guide your way
Midnight no sleep
Inside you scream to
No one hears you fall
Daylight prove me today, day
One more try
Don't turn away, don't turn away
Come out swinging, out on your own
They're in your way, they're in your way
You may be stinging, but you'll get by
Don't turn away, don't turn away
Come out swinging, never alone again
The pain inside leads you, leads you through so you'll get by
ORIGINAL PRANKSTER
You can do it
Until the break of dawn
Life, life, cannot go by the letter
Time, time, prozac can make it better

WANT YOU BAD
If you could only read my mind
You would know that things between us ain't right
I know your arms are open wide
But you're a little on the strange side, I cant lie
Your one advice, is you're too nice

Complete me
Mistreat me
I want you to be bad, bad, bad, bad, bad

Get out at close time
Pull out those highlights
Come around now can you see?

In a final soon
I want you bad
Complicated

MILLION MILES AWAY
There was a time, looking through myself, wanting to pretend
If I escaped, I could fill myself, I don't think you can
Been far and wide, vut that hole inside never really leaves
When I went away, what I really left, left behind was me
It's telling me to be on my way... home
Ohh ohh
Million miles away
Ohh ohh
Million miles away
I can't stay, I can't stay
Ohh ohh
Million miles away
Each passing day, every passing face, seems like such a blur
I long to be, home silently lying next to her
Just to get back, by her side is all, all I need to be
Coz I went away, but what I really left, left behind was me
I need to be getting on my way... home
Ohh ohh
A million miles away
Ohh ohh
A million miles away
I can't take, I can't take
Ohh ohh
A million miles away
It's telling me to be on my way... home
I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away
I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away
I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away
I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away (ohh ohh)
I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away (ohh ohh)
I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away (ohh ohh)
I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away (ohh ohh)
I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away (ohh ohh)
I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away
DAMMIT I CHANGED AGAIN
Hey come inside
While I stand here acting bold
(Can't stand to feel this way)
Clear out the cobwebs in my soul
This time I turn around
And things have changed
Now I don't feel the same
Start a fight, I can't defend
One more time
Dammit, I changed again
Now I don't see
Things the way I did before
(Can't stand to feel this way)
Things important yesterday
Don't matter anymore (woah)
It doesn't make any sense
To feel so different day to day
(Can't stand to feel this way)
When nothing's changed except for me
This time I turned around
And things have changed
Now I don't feel the same
Yeah start a fight, I can't defend
One more time
Dammit, I changed again
This time I turned around
And things have changed
Now I don't feel the same
Yeah start a fight, I can't defend
One more time
Dammit, I changed again...
Turned around
And things have changed
Now I don't feel the same
Yeah start a fight, I can't defend
One more time
Dammit, I changed again
Turned around
And things have changed
Now I don't feel the same
Turn around, I can't defend
One more time
Dammit, I changed again
Woah, woah
I see it
LIVING IN CHAOS
...and it goes like this
Somewhere the time was right, could have been gone in ten
This world is hard to fight, hitting you once, hit it again
To know the way it feels, everyone gets knocked down
When you get up itıs real, by taking it back, turn it around
Get on it, up on it
Get on it (wouldn't wanna be you)
Get on it, out on it
Get on it (no oneıs gonna free you)
You know, when youıre keeping it slow
No matter where you wanna go (wouldnıt wanna be you)
Get on it, up on it
It's on (we're living in chaos)
Somewhere along the line, things get chipped away
This place keeps going down, gets a little worse every day
I see hate and greed, this worldıs a messed up town
Embrace the pain and see, by taking it back, you turn it around
Get on it, up on it
Get on it (wouldn't wanna be you)
Get on it, out on it
Get on it (no oneıs gonna free you)
You know, when youıre keeping it slow
No matter where you wanna go (wouldnıt wanna be you)
Get on it, up on it
It's on
Free... free... free...
Ya ya ya
Ya ya ya
Ya ya ya
Ya ya ya
...and it goes like this
Somewhere the time was right, could have been gone in ten
This world is hard to fight, hitting you once, hit it again
To know the way it feels, everyone gets knocked down
When you get up itıs real...
Free... free... free...
Ya ya ya
Get on it, up on it
Get on it (ya ya ya)
Get on it, up on it
Get on it (no oneıs gonna free you)
Get on it, up on it (ya ya ya)
SPECIAL DELIVERY
Hey now do you see me down the way?
Been watching you everyday
In my car on your street is where I stay
I know you better that way
One day I'll be meeting you for real
You'll feel bad like I feel
It'll blow you away
(You're gonna fall for me, you're gonna fall for me)
And the voices told me, to blow you away
(You're gonna fall for me, you're gonna fall for me)
Hey now well I'm knocking on your door
This special delivery is yours
My infatuation it's true
Hello, got something for you
It'll blow you away
(You're gonna fall for me, you're gonna fall for me)
And the voices told me to blow you away
(You're gonna fall for me, you're gonna fall for me)
If you hadn't sold me I'd still be away
(You're right in front of me, you're right in front of me)
Then I'll be on my way, breathing you okay
Ooga-chucka-ooga-chucka
Ooga-ooga-ooga-chucka
Ooga-chucka
Ooga-ooga-ooga-chucka
Ooga-chucka...
Can't break from my sins
Cannot pray
Can't break from my sins
Cannot pray
But you can't kill a man when he's got no hope
You can't kill a man when he's got no hope
You can't kill a man when he's got no hope
You can't kill a man when he's... God help me!
It'll blow you away
(You're gonna fall for me, you're gonna fall for me)
And the voices told me
To blow you away
(You're gonna fall for me, you're gonna fall for me)
If you hadn't sold me
I'd still be away
(You're right in front of me, you're right in front of me)
Then, I'll be on my way
When you breathe out of me
ONE FINE DAY
If I had a perfect day
I would have it start this way
Open up the fridge and have a tall boy, yeah
Then I'd meet up with my friends
Head out to the game again
We don't even really care who wins
(Hey) wins (hey) wins (hey) one two three
Now excitement seems to grow
When we're hangin' with the bro's
When we're chillin' and we pound a case of Stroh's
Now the game is cool to see, you can "High 5" on TV
Count the riot on the one two three
Operation is in sight and the field is open wide
When you break it then you know you're still alive
If the cops don't make you pay and you make your getaway
Then you know that's one fine day (hey)
On that day before we're through
We could torch a car or two
Then have ourselves another tall boy, yeah
Water hoses and batons
That's the real game that's on
I don't really give a shit who wins
(Hey) wins (hey) wins (hey) one two three
Now excitement seems to grow
When we're hangin' with the bro's
When we're chillin' and we pound a case of Stroh's
Now the game is cool to see, you can "High 5" on TV
Count the riot on the one two three
Operation is in sight and the field is open wide
When you break it then you know you're still alive
If the cops don't make you pay and you make your getaway
Then you know that's one fine day (hey)
I believe it's my God-given right
To destroy everything in my sight
Coz it never gets dull, it never gets old (woah...)
The only thing it gets is more bold
Drinkin', fightin', going to the game
In our world it's a way to stay sane
If you're asking me to have it my way
I'd say that's one fine day
Now excitement seems to grow
When we're hangin' with the bro's
When we're chillin' and we pound a case of Stroh's
Now the game is cool to see, you can "High 5" on TV
Count the riot on the one two three
Operation is in sight and the field is open wide
When you break it then you know you're still alive
If the cops don't make you pay and you make your getaway
Then you know that's one fine day (yeah)
Then you know that's one fine day (now)
Hey, hey, hey.. hey hey
ALL ALONG
Deep inside secret's burning
I Should have known all the while what's true
I went along, to fool myself
Can't go on, I can't escape it
All along, I think I really knew
It was there in the words unspoken
All along, still believed in you
Now I stand here betrayed and broken
Close my eyes from the burning
All along all the while it's true
Take it on, or turn your back
Either way, you can't escape it
All along, I think I really knew
It was there in the words unspoken
All along, still believed in you
Now I stand here betrayed and broken
Ohh...
Ohh...
All along, I think I really knew
It was there in the words unspoken
All along, still believed in you
Now I stand here betrayed and broken
All along, still believed in you
DENIAL, REVISITED
So here we go, having the same old fight again
There she goes same old game that never ends
If I could say all the right words
I know I could make you stay
If I could say all the right words
Things would work out all right
And if you go, I won't believe that it's forever
And you can go, I'll never leave coz it's not over
Woah
Replay last night
Talking it out don't make it right
I know she's tried
But my whole world is her
And all we've got now...
And if you go, I won't believe that it's forever
I won't let go, even if she say that it's over
I know it'll be different this time
If you'd just stay
And when we wrote this story, how did it end?
It was you and me for all our lives
Come on, don't say it, we'll try again
And if I'd just hold you we could last
But she stands softly tears down her face
Hitting me, oh God this is the end
I'd wait here for you
But there's nothing more now I can do
How did you know?
How did you know?
How did you know?
Finally
VULTURES
Now I could lie by your side
All serrated for you
Down below cancer grows
Weeping waits inside you too
Now all our rage begs a stage
It's a waste of time though
And you style seems worthwhile
But this lonely road has turned
(Woah)
And you faded there
(Woah)
They pretend to care
Vultures waiting
If you don't like me, certify me
(Yeah) I don't know
(Yeah) I won't go yeah
(Yeah) save it I'm okay... okay
And in the sun a loaded gun makes for conversation
All the while in denial
It's too late for me to change
(Woah)
And you were unchained
(Woah)
Nothing more had changed
I could fake it
If you still hate me, confiscate me
(Yeah) I don't know
(Yeah) I won't go yeah
(Yeah) save it I'm okay... okay
(Yeah) I won't play
(Yeah) go away
(Yeah) save it I'm okay... okay
(Woah)
And you were unchained
(Woah)
Nothing more had changed
I could fake it
If you still hate me, confiscate me
(Yeah) I don't know
(Yeah) I won't go yeah
(Yeah) save it I'm okay... okay
(Yeah) I won't play
(Yeah) go away
(Yeah) save it I'm okay... okay
CONSPIRACY OF ONE
Red over white, it's one last fatal scene
Brought on by someone unseen
Moving on their own
Bring on the night, and bring us all to our knees
All are gone and none agreed
One who acts alone
Nobody wins
Nobody hears us fall
Nobody wins when it's done
Conspiracy of one
Bring on the night, and bring us all to our knees

Nobody wins when it's done
Conspiracy of one
Nobody wins
