1. Lorraine
there's just one thing I couldn't find
one girl that couldn't be mine
she's in love with calvin klein.
I know she could have any one of these boys
Here, I'm playin' with my baby toys
I'm rocking out but I'm just making noise
Sixteen years and what do we get?
Another ex and deeper in debt
I've done all my time and I've placed all my bets
People say that l.a. is a dive
But livin' aint that hard if you know you're alive
We still party like it's 1955
Lorraine, lorraine, my destiny
This song is over, without you
So I'm singing this refrain to you
('till the) 'till the night I realize
I still see the world through candy-coated eyes
2. Just Tell Me When
just tell me when
oh oh oh oh
you don't like me anymore
I hate to see you running out like this
But hey, it's been done before
I live alone
And think of you at night
And walk the dog
And pick up the poop yeah
Honey, honey, honey
Just tell me when
Honey, honey, honey
I'll be back again
(I'll be back again, I'll be back again)
I'm not like you, oh no
I like my rock & roll
I sleep in the day
Wastin' my life away, oh yeah
Just tell me, just tell me
Just tell me when
(I'll be back again, I'll be back again)
I saw you today, you blew my mind away
I drove the car right off of the cliff, yeah!
3. Rain of The Golden Gorilla
I see you everyday but I tear my eyes away
'cause if you can't be mine
I don't wanna waste my time
I don't wanna waste my time.
I see you everyday but I tear my eyes away
'cause if you can't be mine
I don't wanna waste my time
I don't wanna waste my time
I see you now and then
But I look away again
See, you're not the one I'm for
I don't wanna suffer anymore
I don't wanna suffer anymore
I see you now and then
But I look away again
See, you're not the one I'm for
I don't wanna suffer anymore
I don't wanna suffer anymore
I don't wanna suffer anymore
I know the end is near
But it has been since the start
But that still doesn't mean
That I can keep you from my heart
That I can keep you from my heart
I know the end is near
But it has been since the start
But that still doesn't mean
That I can keep you from my heart
That I can keep you from my heart
I couldn't keep you from my heart
I couldn't keep you from my heart
Yeah, ohhhh (yeah)
(Same verse as first)
the sound flowing through these cables is the blood in my veins
the sound flowing through these cables is the blood in my veins
oooooohhhhhhhh!
4. Maybe In An Alternate Dimension
deep in the hills
there is a hideaway
that i built with zack, the lego maniac
i'm never ever gonna turn back
maybe in legoland you're mine
stop pause record fast-forward rewind
to the beginning frame
when i heard your name
we've tunneled through
to the outside world
the front guard is link, the zelda warrior
i'm never ever gonna turn home
5. Los Angeles
it's Friday night, I gotta moan
'cause it's not right to be alone
and I'm alone
and so I sleep, and wake up at dawn
and leave before the moon is gone
I know its wrong
Wha' oh oh ohhhh
I've gotta find somewhere outta' here
Jump on a plane and I'll disappear
Maybe east of ohio
Maybe that's where I 'oughta go
'cause living here I've got so down
I guess that's why I've got to leave town
And find someplace I haven't found
'cause I know that you'll be there waiting
back, back honey, take me back baby
I wanna stay in l.a.
Back, back honey, take me back sugar
I wanna stay
When I get home, the house is dark
The only sound is joey's bark
Woof, woof, woof, (howling, barking, etc.)
(bark like doggy)
been searching for another place a while
seen every town up in northern cal
and searchin' further every country mile
I saw new york and I like it's style
But still I gotta say I love l.a. (we love it)
I guess that's why I feel I've gotta stay
The hot streets and the summer nights
So lonely
I know it's sad but I love l.a.,
it's even sadder that I'm here to stay.
I might vacation on an isle away.
But this is where I'll spend my dying day.
So now it's time for me to get me a wife.
And live in town with her for all of my life.
I'll understand when my hair turns gray, why I, I live, in l.a.
6. Flight Of The Bootymaster
wesley willis starts to break down
feels the beat and hits the dance floor
i will listen to the radio
still i can't hear you on the telephone
it's a shakedown so count from one to three
and shake your booty 'til the early dawn
you gotta be laid back, rock to obscurity
then you will surely find there's nothing wrong with me
three months have passed
and no reception has left me searching for another one
it's too bad that i was believing
that you could ever be more than deceiving
and when i listen to the radio
now i'm not thinking things about you
and all the things you say that drive me crazy
could not compare to the things you never say
now is the end
i will call her a friend
i won't regret what i said (what i said)
when i become a man then i will surely see
that you were just a girl and you were wrong for me
if you would ever call i know that i'd be home
because i'm waiting and i'm all alone
7. If My Amp Had Wheels
if my amp had wheels
I would go real fast
And if my amp had speakers
Then we'd really have a blast (really have a blast)
yeah
If I had some glue
I would stick to you
And if I had more love
Then I'd give it all to you (all to you)
Yeah
xochitl, xochitl, i'm so glad you're so she
xochitl, xochitl, technicolor coat so chi
ooh whoo
ooh whoo
ooh whoo
if my amp had wheels
I would go real fast
And if my amp had speakers
Then we'd really have a blast (really have a blast)
yeah
Sochi, sochi, I'm so glad you're sochi
Sochi, sochi, I'm so glad you're with me
ooh whoo
ooh whoo
ooh whoo
Sochi, sochi, I'm so glad you're sochi
Sochi, sochi, I'm so glad you're with me
Sochi (you left me) sochi, (I'm sorry, I'll always love you) I'm so glad you're sochi
Sochi, sochi, please don't ever leave me!
Ooh whoo
Ooh whoo
Ooh whoo

8. Shootingstars (Demo)
i finally feel at ease
i'm on an eastern breeze
it blows me into shore
come back to kiss my dear
come back to face my fears
it can't be worse than war
unless you say you gave your heart away (gave your heart away)
unless you say i shouldn't have returned (shouldn't have returned)
and in that case... i'll go
every night i see a shooting star
and wonder if it's landing where you are
if you can see it then you can't be far
and if that's the way you do it
that's the way you find your love
now the air is cold and thin
i'm on my second wind
it blows me to your door
lean into the bell and press
you're in a brand new dress
i've never seen before
and then you say you gave your heart away (gave you heart away)
and then you say i shouldn't have returned (shouldn't have returned)
so i turn my face... and go
every time i take a look around
i find myself looking out
on a place that looks a lot more round
i find myself feeling down
every night i see a shooting star
and wonder if it's landing where you are
if you can see it then you can't be far
and if that's the way you do it
then that's the way you find your love
9. Natalie Portman Intro
Papa, tell me a story
10. Natalie Portman (Demo)
i'm telling you a story now
of something that's wrong
this has been developing
since nineteen eighty-one
maybe she's alone
maybe she's alone
what can i do?
what can i do?
there's nothing
there's nothing
there's nothing i can do
if i'm a proper jewish boy
will her family love me?
can't stand to see her on the stage
and know she's not thinking of me
maybe she'll be hearing this
but probably she won't (probably she won't)
possibly she has desires
but probably she don't (probably she don't)
there's nothing i can do
11. Iceland
I'm over you now
And I guess that's the way it's supposed to be
but there's something inside that calls me back to you
and I know that there's something wrong with me
is it wrong with you too?
But the keyboard is with me
but the keyboard will keep me company
but the keyboard is with me
but the keyboard will keep me holding on
she left for iceland
we lived a techno fantasy
we loved to listen
to our rock and roll part three
I guess I'm over you now
and I guess that you don't give a damn
but now the feeling's gone
and I'm starting to understand
12. Baseball (Live)
when i feel the morning grass i let down my guard
because love comes from the dirt in my own backyard
everytime i think i've finished being young
i catch myself having fun
but the moment passes as the sun moves on
so i turn myself back to you
on a diamond in the rough i spent my better years
i still see her in the crowd with diamonds in her ears
and it's depressing that i can't forget the tune the organist played
la da da da da da da, la da da da da da da...
everytime i think i've finished being young
i catch myself having fun
but the moment passes as the son moves on
so i turn myself back to you
is our season over?
no four leaf clover
i feel it's getting colder
now that it's late fall
but can you still remember?
april to november
you and i were members
of the best team in baseball
so we play our games
i've got a girlfriend
you've found a new guy
but it's not the same
and so i drive
straight up i-5
to let you know i'm still alive
