I've been creepin around this place for years
But I never seen your face around here
You just showed up wantin to get paid
For your reasearched rip-offs and readymades
Well there's nothin punk
about playin the game
Yea The New Cool Style Is Totally Lame
It was long dead when I arrived
And 6 scenes since I've stood aside
But now you're here, and still am I
So we'll go around that seventh time
But I heard it before
and it was the same
Aw, the new cool style is utterly tame
All my life I've just been hearing how there's nothin new under the sun
Still the world around is cheering on the latest flimsy form of fun
What can be done?
I couldn't care what nothin means
I've seen things you dare not dream
When I was young we had to clean
Now you got plans for the obsolete
Well just toss me out
When I get in the way
Yea the new cool style better save the day
Save it man
All my life I've just been hearing how there's nothin new under the sun
Still the world around is cheering on the latest flimsy form of fun
What can be done?

I Need Music

I need music more than my life.
When I can hear it, everything's right
I need music
So play me that beat. Get me energized.
If it don't stop, I'll go all night
Yea, I need music
Without this music, I'm not myself.
I start to question my mental health
I need music
So don't push me baby, 'cuz push comes to shove
and I need this music as much as your love.
Don't make me choose
'cuz I need music.
Surround me with sound
Suspending time
Spin me around
Give me a shine
Words in my mouth
I'll make them mine
I'm bathing in
The liquid divine
I need music

I hid in the trees while you and your crew
dragged a straw stuffed suit across route 22
Laid it in the middle of the southbound lane
Waited in hiding and gave it a name
When up pulled a man who brandished his rifle
Up the mountain you ran like antelope startled
He yelled in the darkness, threatening to shoot
I hid in the trees watching you and your crew
I never thought it was cool to cause
Pain and confusion
I just so desperately wanted
Your love and inclusion
And 20 years later I still feel shame
I guess you did too, so we're both to blame
You pushed me around and you called me names
But you had your secrets and we had
Bob Highway
Everything done just comes back around
All of our fun gets paid for somehow
Long since moved on, but never forgotten
My morals have failed me easily and often
You stole decorations from faraway lawns
and lovers attention from dusk until dawn
I was not surprised when I found out the truth
We all should have guessed, it was too late for you
I never thought it was cool to cause
Pain and confusion
I just so desperately wanted
Your love and inclusion
And 20 years later I still feel shame
I guess you did too, so we're both to blame
You pushed me around and you called me names
But you had your secrets and we had
