on the floor now baby
you won't bother me no more
if you're drinkin' well, you know
that you're my friend and i say
i think i'll have myself a beer.

well i should have known it wouldn't be
all right, but i can't live without her
so i won't even try...

maybe some day, i'll think of what to say.
maybe next time i'll remember what to do,
she looks like heaven, maybe this is hell,
said she'd do it all again, she'd
promise not to tell!

if i get drunk well,
i'll pass out
on the floor now baby

plants are screamin' and tomatoes cry,
you say it's not so bad, they're only
vegetables, that's what you said

stole her heart, but it's not my
fault, lookin' at
my picture she forgot about her
boyfriend, yea.

i'll never be...a rock and roll star
i'll never be...anything, anything at all,
drives me crazy, can't get away,
somebody tell me...when do we get paid?

everybody's lookin' at me
thought by now i'd be on mtv
or a magazine like seventeen or rolling stone,
and i won't be alone with your
money in my pocket and face on your t-shirt yea.

i'll never be...a rock and roll star
i'll never be...anything, anything at all,
drives me crazy, can't get away,
but i try and i try and i try and i try
every day
every day
said i'll never be,
a rock and roll star
i'll never be...
anything, anything at all.


13. Alternative, Baby

well, i see you up on stage and
i don't know just
what you're sayin', but you're my hero...
and a guy just kicked me in the head,
a little girl
just passed out dead, i'm in between a big jock
and a sweaty skinhead but i love you
whatever that means...but i don't wanna talk
to you, cause i know i'd just say some thing
stupid and i know you've got better things to do.

hey, little alternative girl
don't you wanna be my friend?
you know i'm singin' all my songs to you
it's all right if you don't understand.

maybe i shouldn't be so serious, tellin' you that
everything sucks cause i don't wanna bring
you down
but it never ever works out right, i'm gonna lose,
give up the fight, i won't get what i want
won't get anything but i love you...whatever
that means.
and they don't wanna talk to me cause they know
what i'll turn out to be, i said i was cool
but i can't lie to you (but i do)

hey, little alternative girl
don't you wanna be my friend?
you know i'm singin' all my songs to you
it's all right if you don't understand.

and i don't wanna start again cause i know
it'll be the same in the end
i didn't like it the first time anyway.
