Wake Up 03:28
And light another cigarette and watch you walk away, I wanna hide you in the corner of my brain. But maybe just tonight you could walk me home, And kiss me good-bye, well no one needs to know. I want to wake up and roll over to your face, But first I need to learn to wake up at my place. I want to wake up and reap what I have sown, But first I need to learn to wake up my own. Okay, I'll slow it down, You know just how I get. Between the swills and pills, Well sometimes I forget. Think with my heart, feel with my mind, It gets me every time, Give the benefit of a doubt to those across the line I want to wake up and roll over to your face, But first I need to learn to wake up at my place. I want to wake up and reap what I have sown, But first I need to learn to wake up my own. On my own x 8 I need to learn to wake up x 7 I need to learn.

Japan 03:35
All of my friends they moved to Japan, They bought a house together and a white minivan, and I miss them, I miss them, I miss them. I thought that I could live in the spare room. But there were not enough sheets or towels for me to use, and I miss them, I miss them, I miss them. But I can't see why. I bought myself a flight under the wrong name, They took one look at me and wouldn't let me on the plane, and I missed it, I missed it, I missed it. I watched my flight depart without me, I'd pre-purchased a meal, And an hour of air TV, and I missed it, I missed it, I missed it. But I can't see why.

And I heard that you said, Something about me. (But I'm just guessing, but I'm just guessing!) But I never actually. (But I'm just guessing, but I'm just guessing!) I think I'm paranoid, it's probably all inside. (But I'm just guessing, but I'm just guessing!) And if it's all hearsay, then why would they tell me? And I heard that you said, Something about me.

Platypus 04:55
You can see the tan-lines on your feet. Sand in your shoes is left over from the beach. And it's all there, it's all there. So maybe, maybe. Your hair is blonde, it was bleached by the sun. The more you reminisce, the more it is done. And it's all there, it's all there. So maybe, you should be more aware. That you are not a platypus, And you are not a crocodile, And you can't breathe underwater. So just come home, you animal. Oh just come home you animal. A purple fiver is hiding in your pocket. Your door is closed but you don't need to lock it. And you've come home, you've come home. So maybe, leave your passport alone. To settle down, it sounds like such a curse. But you've done so much, you know it could be worse. Oh where you've flown! And how you've grown! So maybe it's okay that you're done. Because, you are not a platypus, And you are not a crocodile, And you can't breathe underwater, oh no. So just come home, you animal. Oh just come home, you animal. Oh just come home, you animal. Oh just come home, you animal, hey! Oh just come home you animal x 6 Oh just come home.

And hey look out the window, And tell me what you know. It's been a weird summer There's been a lot of snow. I think I only went, outside one time, And otherwise, I just stayed inside. And then all fall, Guess who hung out with me? My boyfriend and my cat and, Of course my T.V. I'm glad the new year's here, So I can resolve, To sit inside, And hide from it all. I want a little sun, I want my freckles back, I want a line between, My back neck. I want a farmers tan , And I want SPF, But polar ice is here, and now there's nothing left.

You Have To 03:53
I did absolutely nothing all day, I just sat around and I stared at my screen. I did not even go outside at all, I just sat around and wished someone would call. And the last time I talked to you, you had big dreams. Meanwhile I was re-running old 90s T.V. Today I accomplished all of my goals, Which involved banging my head against a wall. Why is it so hard to just find a way, Of completing maybe one thing a day? And the last thing I want is to be some loser, And no one's at my funeral, because "I never really knew 'er!" Turn it off, because you have to. Shut it down, because you have to. And go outside, because you have to. And face-to-face it, because you have to, you have to. You have to. You have to.

Perfect 03:14
Watching the world away, Watching the world away, Watching the world, you're watching. These four chords I'm strumming, And floor board are tumbling, Beneath our feet, Beneath our rickety existence. And the bookshelf is broken, And it's really just a token, Of a life worth living, With honest resistance. But you'll never get it because your life is perfect, And you'll never get it because your wife is perfect, And your life is perfect, and so is your home, And it's all covered up, therefore it's gone. It's covered up and it's gone x 4 I head out to my job, it's a fifteen minute walk, And you drive by, you're late for work again. And my wallpaper, it is torn, there's only one hinge on my door, You look to me; you want me to explain. But you'll never get it because your life is perfect, And you'll never get it because your wife is perfect, And your life is perfect, and so is your home, And it's all covered up, therefore it's gone. It's covered up and it's gone x 4 And you won't know, no you won't know, no you won't know, when it comes! No you won't know, no you won't know, no you wont' know, when it comes! Perfect; just like your life. Perfect; just like your wife. Perfect; just like your home. Covered up therefore it's gone. Covered up and it's gone, it's covered up and it's gone, it's covered up and it's gone. It's covered up and it's gone. And you're Watching the world away, watching the world away, watching the world away, watching the world away. Perfect; just like your life. Perfect; just like your wife. Perfect; just like your home. Covered up therefore it's gone.

I've got a problem where, I'm always speaking in metaphors, Then I met a girl, who was literal, I said hey I will give that a go. I say what comes right to my head , If I can't write it down instead, I don't wanna get caught up on, Things that aren't even real. So hey I will give that a go, Hey I will give that a go, Hey I will give that a go, Hey I will give it a go. It's April and I still have green on my nails from St. Patrick's Day. I painted them all over instead of trying to take it away. I still eat chips for dinner and I think that that's fine, I'm, Probably at the age where I should be awake by nine. But, I will figure it all out, And I'll get a job where I can shout, 'Cause I think a healthy dose of exercising your vocals chords is good for you! So hey I will give that a go Hey I will give that a go Hey I will give that a go Hey I will give it a go. I'm gunna, I'm gunna try my best And you're gunna, you're gunna try your best And then together, we can do it We can put our all into it! And, I'll do it You'll do it. We're gunna put our all into it. And I'll do it, And you'll do it, And we can get together...woo!

Make it Rain 03:14
And when you're in the room, and I'm not there Do you still act cool, and pretend you don't care? What's all this about you being a recluse? Cause the guy I met, well I guess he wasn't you. And what's your plan for the next few years? Hanging around with the same few peers? Drinking around with the same twelve beers? Shaking your head in an attempt to get it clear? You're lucky that someone like me, Ever gave notice to you, You were a part of the scene, When it was just a phase that I was going through. And what's your plan for the next few years? Hanging around with the same few peers? Drinking around with the same twelve beers? Shaking your head in an attempt to get it clear? And in a few years I'm gunna have to laugh. 'Cause when you knew me, You never got my autograph. ..two, three, four. So you can make it rain? Well good for you! Under my umbrella, you didn't get me wet, now did you? So you can make it rain? Well good for you! Under my umbrella, you didn't get me wet, now did you? You're lucky someone like me, ever even noticed you you're lucky someone like me ever even notice you. You're lucky! You're lucky! You're lucky! You're lucky! Oh you're lucky, You're lucky, So lucky, You're lucky.

I hope I watch you walk into the place I work at, I'll serve you coffee, it's not great but it's black. I hope that you order the wrong meal, You'll send it back and then I will have free dinner. Because people like you, People like you, People like you, Don't see people, You don't see people, like me! I hope I get to dedicate this song to, Everybody in the bar expect for you. Because people like you, People like you, People like you, Don't see people, You don't see people, like me! And it's people like you, people like you, Well your kind of people, you don't have a clue. Because, where are you going, and what are you doing? How can I tell if it's me and then it's you? People like you, People like you, People like you, Don't see people, You don't see people like me!

Breakwater 03:56
Breakwater, break bread, Break promises instead. Of holding onto time, Onto lonely, hearts and minds. Hold fast, hold steady. Holding hands, breaking free, Of a moment, of a time, It's not yours, nor's it mine. Cold winter, colder snow. Take it with you, or let it go. Seasons will change, or they won't. You really have no control. So hold this moment, And hold it close. Fill your glass, Cause heaven knows, We're all in free fall, There's no solid ground, So seeing as you can't, why stand around? And breakwater, and break bread, And break promises instead. Of holding onto time, Onto lonely, hearts and minds. Hearts and minds, hearts and minds. Onto lonely hearts and minds. Hearts and minds. Onto lonely hearts and minds.

Telephone 03:13
I rang you again today, But only you would know, What happens on, The other side of the phone. Do you remember you called me, Late and we talked, We kept everyone up, And made no excuses for our fun. Well, you're good at not making excuses, Because you've got none now, Not even a reason, Just an empty other side of the phone. Here we go ! Ring ring a ring ring x 8 I wrote down my number for you, and I put it inside of your rear view, Mirror, I wrote down my number for you. And I put it inside of your shoe, Nearer to all of the other pieces of paper, That you must hold dearer to your heart than my number. Well, you're good at not making excuses, Because you've got none now, Not even a reason, Just an empty other side of the phone. Ring ring a ring ring x 8 One more time, Hello?! Hello?! Where are you ? Hello?! I know that you're home, so pick up your phone! I said ring, I said ring, I said ring ring ring ring ring! Hello! I said ring, I said ring ring ring ring ring!
