When I was once very young
the air seemed so clean in my lungs.
Black and white was the name of the game,
Until my age took its aim.
You think your plans will never change,
But everything is now out of place.
The world has become so strange.
Everybody is crowding up your space.
I need someone to tell me
When everything went straight to hell.
Where did you go, the world I heard about
So many years ago?
Or was it just another lie?
How would I ever know?
The world is not how they say it is at all.
I'm surprised by what I had found,
nothing like the story that's around.
Everyone else has their feet on the ground.
Fairytale world has come unwound.
Cold as Ice, dog eat dog
All in all you're just another cog.
Dreams and hopes get me through the day,
But reality is forcing me to pay.
I need someone to tell me
When everything went straight to hell.
Where did you go, the world I heard about
So many years ago?
Or was it just another lie?
How would I ever know?
The world is not how they say it is at all.
I need someone to tell me
When everything went to hell.
Where did you go, the world I heard about
So many years ago?
Or was it just another lie?
How would I ever know?
The world is not how they say it is at all. - Track Name: So Much Time, So Little to Do

Sitting at my desk and I'm staring at the computer screen
Checking on the phone to see if it will ever ring.
I've taken the garbage out at least three times today
Won't somebody please call me cuz I'm bored in every way
Nobody wants to talk to me
And I don’t want to anyway
But just for now I guess
I’ll have to say There's nothing to do So I'm stuck thinking about you Party time will come someday But for now I'll have to say I'm bored. I'm sure there's a party goin' down while I am here Someone's getting laid and I just have a beer. There's laughter in the distance but I'm so far away Won't somebody please call me, cuz I don't want to stay Nobody wants to talk to me I didn't want to anyway But just for now I guess I will have to say There's nothing to do So I'm stuck thinking about you Party time will come someday But for now I'll have to say I'm bored. Well the night's come to an end and now I'm off to bed But how can I get to sleep with all these thoughts inside my head Maybe it was the 4 hour nap I took to past the time Tomorrow might be different But for now I guess I'm fine
Nobody wants to talk to me I didn't want to anyway But just for now I guess I will have to say
There's nothing to do So I'm stuck thinking about you Party time will come someday But for now I'll have to say I'm bored. - Track Name: Dancing for Clowns

Sometimes the truth can radiate
An ongoing debate
But will we seal our fate
By seeing through the shade
If faith is for the weak
Then he’s on an evil streak
And stronger than a song
Our questions are forgone
Addressing your concerns
And eating all you learn
Sending out the sounds
Our trouble all around
Trapped underground
And fearing for the worst
All angles have found
The thirsty leave the thirst
You’ll find in time there’s a bridge
Between traffic and the ratings
All of the lines, they seem to abide
But they’re wrapped around a mound
Chase reality and you’re finally gonna see
That the one you made isn’t free
Wrapped up in sound
And dancing for clowns
Cuz we’re laughing all the way
The truth is first one on the scene
And we all know just what it means
You’ll see it every other day
If you don’t look the other way
It’s like a whisper in the wind
You tell from strangers to your friends
Until the hungriest of all
Eats through to make the others fall
Wrapped up in sound
And dancing for clowns
You made the choice for me
But I would like a refund please
For all our crimes They are not seen
Unless they’re obscene The distance being
The suffering is for the machine
If we just let it do what it please
Cuz it’s laughing in our face
All above town and dancing for clowns
Independent thought can always starve them out
Whoa yeah cuz their laughing in our face
Whoa yeah cuz we’re fighting all the way. - Track Name: Shark Bite

It’s all a catastrophe
People keep screaming at me
That old radio keeps blaring paparazzi
What you think you know is wrong
Still you play those stupid songs
You think your high and mighty like big old King Kong
It is always haunting you it is always taunting you
You don’t really care even though you know
it is always hunting you and it is always taunting you
You don’t really care but it’s time you know
Brag and say that you are it
Think I really give a shit
You do nothing while they push us to the limit
You just want a little more
Well come one now you gossip whore
Make those little kiddies beg for more.
We all think it’s such a waste
When you put on your new face
You need to be set back in your place
It’s all a catastrophe
People still screaming at me
That old radio keeps playing paparazzi
It is always haunting you and it is always taunting you
You don’t really care even though you know
it is always hunting you and it is always taunting you
You don’t really care but it’s time you know
Shark bite!
It gonna hit you like
Shark bite!
There’s no escaping the
Shark bite!
Don’t even try to run
Shark bite!
How long can you breathe
Shark bite!
It gonna hit you like
Shark bite!
There’s no escaping the
Shark bite!
Don’t even try to run
Shark bite!
How long can you breathe
Brag and say that you are it
Think I really give a shit
You do nothing while they push us to the limit
You just want a little more
Well get it now you gossip whore
Make those little kiddies beg for more.
We all think it’s such a waste
When you put on your new face
You need to be set back in your place
It’s all a catastrophe
People still screaming at me
That old radio still blaring paparazzi
It is always taunting you and it is always haunting you
You don’t really care even though you know
Cause it is always hunting you and it is always wanting you
You don’t really care but it’s time you know
Shark bite!
It gonna hit you like
Shark bite!
There’s no escaping the
Shark bite!
Don’t even try to run
Shark bite!
How long can you breathe
Shark bite!
It gonna hit you like
Shark bite!
There’s no escaping the
Shark bite!
Don’t even try to run
Shark bite!
How long can you breathe - Track Name: Drunk Tank

Yeah we can do body shots
Or have separate Shiner Bocs
Hell, I’ll get you any beer
If you’ll get over here
And dance with me
(AND SKANK THE NIGHT AWAY!)
And there’s a boy in the band
Who’s been staring at my tits
And there’s your boy in the back
On some other girls lips
And I gotta say, HEY
I like the way you move
(OH, SO SMOOTH)
You’re lips are so sweet
And if they’re as good as your feet
I’d let them walk all over me anytime.
I know this is cold, but my beer’s nice and cold
Won’t you dance with only me this time?
Here comes the boy from the bar
Who’s been looking at me
And there’s the cops at the door
Asking for your ID
And I gotta say, HEY It’s time to make a move
(OUT THE BACK DOOR!)
You’re lips are so sweet
And if they’re as good as your feet
I’d let them walk all over me anytime.
I know this sounds weird, AH! I just spilt my beer
Oh here come the cops to get me!
And damn! I almost had it planned out.
Damn! My plans nearly panned out.
We’re in the back of the squad car
I know this won’t go far
But darling, I gotta say…
That DAMN! I almost fell through.
And DAMN! I’m sitting here beside you
In an orange jumpsuit. - Track Name: Third Time's the Charm

My father and his father always lived underground
And they wanted me to do the same.
But always doing what you're told and never rebelling
Can drive someone insane.
So I’ll just smile and nod without batting an eye
And say I'll keep the tradition.
I wonder what’s waiting out there for me,
I’m so tired of this condition
. Everybody says I should stay out of sight.
There's never any drama when I'm out of mind
The impression that I get is if I take up flight
I'll leave so much behind.
From a classy New York to a classy San Diego,
I was rolling around in the underground.
One day I got curious and poked my head out
I couldn't believe what I'd found.
So many people with different tastes
I wanted to be part of the scene
But nothing could prepare me for what happened next
It was something out of a dream.
Somebody came up to me and said "I dig your style,
Would you like to make a million bucks?"
"I'll show you to the public and they'll love every minute
As you tell them that everything sucks."
So I'll live my life
With no regrets.
Take a chance and never look back again.
If you're afraid of failure
Then don't forget,
That is why you fail
And the window of opportunity passes you by.
At first, it sounded sweet so I said "We have a deal"
And I signed above the dotted line.
But 15 minutes goes so fast they want something new,
Now ya don't cut even every time.
I'd like to say don't let the bastards grind you down,
but eventually it takes its toll.
So there's one thing left to do and I should do it soon
before I lose my soul.
I'm going underground, I’m going back to my roots.
I know I've got nothing to lose.
The impression that I get is I'll be welcomed back,
I hope they don't refuse.
So I'll live my life
With no regrets.
Take a chance and never look back again.
If you're afraid of failure
Then don't forget,
That is why you fail
And the window of opportunity passes you by. - Track Name: Twitter Me Your Love

It was a date with destiny
Your profile said you’re 5 foot 3
When you first sent that pic
I knew that you were the one for me
Our hearts are in e-harmony
Your chatting is so filling with glee
When you first LOLed
I fell in love with you
Twitter me your love
Our cyber romance is like a drug
I wish I could caress your smiley face
You text so fast I can't keep up the pace
And your emoticons turn me on
That is why I'm emailing you this song!
Our hearts are in e-harmony
Your chatting is so filling with glee
When you first LOLed
I fell in love with you
For a moment I almost thought that you were here
Whisper in my ear that you're in love (love)
All the buddies on my list
Well they've been getting pretty pissed
That I’m spending all my time with you
I think that we should meet right here on the street
So everyone can see our love
Yeah they’ll see our love
Twitter me your love
Our cyber romance is like a drug
I wish I could caress your smiley face
You text so fast I’ll never keep up the pace
And your emoticons turn me on
That is why I'm emailing you this song
Twitter me your love!
