Get It
I on the tube and what do I see A whole people cryin' "Don't blame me" They point their crooked fingers ar everybody else Spend all their time sorry for themselves of this, victim 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, kill 'em You don't want to work, you want to like a king But the big, bad world doesn't owe you a Get it Get it If you want to play, then you might as well split Get it, Get over it It's like going to confession every time I hear you You're makin' the most of losin' streak Some call it sick, but I it weak You drag it around like a ball and You wallow in the you wallow in the pain You wave it like a flag, you it like a crown Got mind in the gutter, bringin' everybody down Complain about the present and blame it on the I'd like to your inner child and kick its little ass Get it Get it All this bitchin' and moanin' and a fit Get over it, get it Get it Get it It's gotta stop sometime, so why don't you Get it, get over it

The Girl Yesterday
It reall sad the way they said good-bye Or maybe it just so bad she couldn't cry He his things, walked out the door and drove away And she became the girl yesterday He took a plane the sea To some land She at home and tried to understand How someone who had been so could be so far away And she became the girl yesterday She doesn't know what's She know what's wrong She knows the pain that comes from waiting for so long And she count the teardrops That she's while he's away 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 and the things that he might say But she'll always be the girl yesterday Yeh, she'll be the girl from yesterday
To Be Still
It's just day in paradise As you stumble to bed You'd anything to silence Those voices in your head You thought you could happiness Just over green hill You you would be satisfied But you never Learn to be We are like sheep a shepherd We know how to be alone So we wander 'round desert And wind up following the gods home But the cries out for another And they keep that bell And one starry-eyed messiah a violent farewell- Learn to be to be still Now the flowers in garden don't smell so sweet Maybe forgotten The heaven lying at your There are so many In all messages we send (We asking) How do I get out of do I fit in? Though the world is torn and Even if your heart is waiting for you to awaken And you will- Learn to be Learn to be You keep on runnin' Keep on
Tequila
another tequila sunrise Starin' slowly 'cross the sky, said He was just a hired Workin' on the dreams he to try The go by Ev'ry night when the sun goes Just another boy in town And she's out 'round She wasn't just woman And I couldn't keep comin' on been so long Oh, and a hollow feelin' when It comes to dealin' friends It never Take shot of courage Wonder why the right words come You get numb It's another sunrise,this old world looks the same, frame, mm...
Hotel
On a dark highway, cool wind in my hair Warm of colitas, rising up through the air Up ahead in the distance, I saw a light My head grew heavy and my sight dim I had to stop for the There she in the doorway; I heard the mission And I was to myself, could be Heaven or this could be Hell' Then she lit up a and she showed me the way There voices down the corridor, I thought I them say... Welcome to the California Such a lovely Such a face Plenty of room at the Hotel Any time of year, you can it here Her is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes bends She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she friends How they in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat. dance to remember, some dance to forget So I up the Captain, 'Please bring me my He said,'We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen nine' And still voices are calling from far away, you up in the middle of the night Just to hear say... Welcome to the California Such a lovely a lovely face They livin' it up at the California What a surprise, bring your alibis on the ceiling, The champagne on ice And she said 'We are all just here, of our own device' And in the chambers, gathered for the feast The stab it with steely knives, But they just can't the beast thing I remember, I was Running for the I had to the passage back To the I was before 'Relax,'said the man, We are to receive. You can any time you like, but you can leave!
