My name is Jonas
I'm carryin' the wheel
Thanks for all you've shown us
But this is how we feel
Come sit next to me, pour yourself some tea
Just like grandma made, when we couldn't find sleep
Things were better then, once but never again
We've all left the den, let me tell you about it
The choo-choo train left right on time
A ticket cost only your mind
The driver said, "Hey man, we go all the way"
Of course we were willing to pay
My name is Wepeel
Got a box full of your toys
They're fresh out of batteries
But they're still making noise, making noise
Tell me what to do, now the tank is dry
Now this wheel is flat, and you know what else?
Guess what I received in the mail today
Words of deep concern from my little brother
The building's not goin' as he planned
The foreman has injured his hand
The dozer will not clear a path
The driver swears he learned his math
The workers are going home, the workers are going home
The workers are going home, the workers are going home, yeah!
The workers are going home, the workers are going home
The workers are going home, yeah, yeah, yeah!
My name is Jonas

No One Else

My girl's got a big mouth
With which she blabbers a lot
She laughs at most everything
Whether it's funny or not
And if you see her
Tell her it's over now
I want a girl who will laugh for no one else
When I'm away, she puts her makeup on the shelf
When I'm away, she never leaves the house
I want a girl who laughs for no one else
My girl's got eyeballs
In the back of her head
She looks around and around
You know, it makes me sad to see her like that
Please don't believe her, she says that for anyone
And if you see her, tell her it's a hey, hey, hey, hey!
I want a girl who will laugh for no one else
When I'm away, she puts her makeup on the shelf
When I'm away, she never leaves the house
I want a girl who laughs for no one else
And if you see her, tell her it's over now!
And if you see her, tell her it's over now
And if you watch her go, watch her go, watch her, watch her, watch her, watch her!
I want a girl who will laugh for no one else
When I'm away, she puts her makeup on the shelf
When I'm away, she never leaves the house
I want a girl who laughs for no one else, no one else
Yeah!

The world has turned and left me here
Just where I was before you appeared
And in your place, an empty space
Has filled the void behind my face
I just made love with your sweet memory
One thousand times in my head
You said you loved it more than ever
You said
You remain, turned away
Turning further every day
The world has turned and left me here
Just where I was before you appeared
And in your place, an empty space
Has filled the void behind my face
I talked for hours to your wallet photograph
And you just listened
You laughed, enchanted by my intellect
Or maybe you didn't
You remain, turned away
Turning further every day
The world has turned and left me here
Just where I was before you appeared
And in your place, an empty space
Has filled the void behind my face
You remain, turned away
Turning further every day
The world has turned and left me here
Just where I was before you appeared
And in your place, an empty space
Has filled the void behind my face
(Do you believe what I sing now?)
The world has turned and left me here
(Do you believe what I sing now?)
Just where I was before you appeared
(Do you believe...)
And in your place, an empty space
Has filled the void behind my...
Do you believe what I sing now?
Do you believe what I sing now?
Do you believe...

What's with these homies dissin' my girl?
Why do they gotta front?
What did we ever do to these guys
That made them so violent?
Woo-hoo, but you know I'm yours
Woo-hoo, and I know you're mine
Woo-hoo, that's for all the time
Woo-ee-oo, I look just like Buddy Holly
Oh-oh, and you're Mary Tyler Moore
I don't care what they say about us anyway
I don't care 'bout that
Don't you ever fear, I'm always near
I know that you need help
Your tongue is twisted, your eyes are slit
You need a guardian
Woo-hoo, but you know I'm yours
Woo-hoo, and I know you're mine
Woo-hoo, that's for all the time
Woo-ee-oo, I look just like Buddy Holly
Oh-oh, and you're Mary Tyler Moore
I don't care what they say about us anyway
I don't care 'bout that
Bang! Bang! Knock on the door
Another big bang, get down on the floor
Oh no! What do we do?
Don't look now but I lost my shoe
I can't run and I can't kick
What's a matter, babe, are you feelin' sick?
What's a matter, what's a matter, what's a matter you?
What's a matter, babe, are you feelin' blue? Oh-oh!
That's for all the time
That's for all the time
Woo-ee-oo, I look just like Buddy Holly
Oh-oh, and you're Mary Tyler Moore
I don't care what they say about us anyway
I don't care 'bout that
I don't care 'bout that (x3)

Aw man, you want a beer?
Alright
Aw man, hell brah, this is the best man. I’m so glad we’re all back together and stuff. This is great, man

Yeah
Aw man, it’s gonna be the best, I’m so stoked! Take it easy, brah!

If you want to destroy my sweater
Hold this thread as I walk away
Hey, what’s up?
Not much
Did you hear about the party?
Yeah
Um, I think I’m gonna go but, um, my friends don’t really wanna go. Could I get a ride?
Oh no, it go, it gone, bye-bye (Bye)
Who I, I think, I sink, and I die
If you want to destroy my sweater
Hold this thread as I walk away (As I walk away!)
Watch me unravel I'll soon be naked
Lying on the floor, lying on the floor, I've come undone
If you want to destroy my sweater
Hold this thread as I walk away (As I walk away!)
Watch me unravel I'll soon be naked
Lying on the floor, lying on the floor, I've come undone
(I don't want to destroy your tank top)
If you want to destroy my sweater
(Let's be friends and just walk away)
Hold this thread as I walk away (As I walk away!)
(Hate to see you lying there in your Superman skivvies)
Watch me unravel I'll soon be naked
(Lying on the floor, lying on the floor, I've come undone!)
Lying on the floor, lying on the floor, I've come undone!

Surf Wax America
03:05

|
The sea is foaming like a bottle of beer
The wave is coming, but I ain't got no fear
I'm waxing down, so that I'll go real fast
I'm waxing down, because it's really a blast
I'm going surfing, cause I don't like your face
I'm bailing out, because I hate the race
Of rats that run around and 'round in the maze
I'm going surfing, I'm going surfing!
You take your car to work, I'll take my board
And when you're out of fuel, I'm still afloat
My buddies and their honeys all come along
They seem invincible as they trip along
The sea is rolling like a thousand pound keg
We're going surfing, going surfing!
You take your car to work, I'll take my board
And when you're out of fuel, I'm still afloat
You take your car to work, I'll take my board
And when you're out of fuel, I'm still afloat
All along the undertow is strengthening its hold
I never thought it'd come to this, now I can never go home
All along the undertow is strengthening its hold
I never thought it'd come to this, now I can never go home
You take your car to work, I'll take my board
And when you're out of fuel, I'm still afloat
You take your car to work, I'll take my board
(All along the undertow is strengthening its hold)
And when you're out of fuel, I'm still afloat
(I never thought it'd come to this, now I can never go home)
You take your car to work, I'll take my board
And when you're out of fuel, I'm still afloat
You take your car, I'll take my board
You take your car, I'll take my board, let's go!

Say It Ain't So

Oh, yeah, alright...
Somebody's Heine is crowding my icebox
Somebody's cold one is giving me chills
Guess I'll just close my eyes
Oh, yeah, alright, feels good inside...
Flip on the telly
Wrestle with Jimmy
Something is bubbling behind my back
The bottle is ready to blow
Say it ain't so, your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so, my love is a life taker
I can't confront you, I never could do
That which might hurt you, so try and be cool
When I say, "this way is a water slide away from me
That takes you further every day," so be cool
Say it ain't so, your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so, my love is a life taker
Dear daddy, I write you, in spite of years of silence
You've cleaned up, found Jesus, things are good, or so I hear
This bottle of Stephen's awakens ancient feelings
Like father, stepfather, the son is drowning in the flood
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah!
Say it ain't so, your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so, my love is a life taker

In The Garage

I've got a Dungeon Master's Guide, I've got a 12-sided die
I've got Kitty Pryde, and Nightcrawler too
Waiting there for me, yes I do, I do
I've got posters on the wall, my favorite rock group KISS
I've got Ace Frehley, I've got Peter Criss
Waiting there for me, yes I do, I do
In the garage, I feel safe
No one cares about my ways
In the garage, where I belong
No one hears me sing this song
In the garage
I've got electric guitar, I play my stupid songs
I write these stupid words, and I love every one
Waiting there for me, yes I do, I do
In the garage, I feel safe
No one cares about my ways
In the garage, where I belong
No one hears me sing this song
In the garage, in the garage, yeah!
In the garage, I feel safe
No one cares about my ways
In the garage, where I belong
No one hears me sing this song
In the garage, I feel safe
No one laughs about my ways
In the garage, where I belong
No one hears me, no one hears me
No one hears me, no one hears me
No one hears me sing this song

Holiday
03:23
|

Let's go away for a while, you and I
To a strange and distant land
Where they speak no word of truth
But we don't understand anyway
Holiday, far away, to stay
On a holiday, far away, let's go today
In a heartbeat!
Heartbeat, heartbeat
Don't bother to pack your bags or your map
We won't need them where we're going
We're going where the wind is blowing
Not knowing where we're gonna stay
Holiday, far away, to stay
On a holiday, far away, let's go today
In a heartbeat!
Heartbeat, heartbeat
We'll write a postcard to our
Friends and family in free verse
We'll write a postcard to our
Friends and family in free verse
(On the road with Kerouac)
We'll write a postcard to our
(Sheltered in his bivouac)
Friends and family in free verse
(On this road, we'll never die)
Heartbeat, heartbeat
Let's go away for a while
You and I, to a strange and distant land
Where they speak no word of truth
But we don't understand anyway
Holiday, far away, to stay
On a holiday, far away, let's go today
In a heartbeat!
Let's go away, let's go away
Let's go away, let's go away
In a heartbeat!

Only in Dreams
07:58

You can't resist her, she's in your bones
She is your marrow, and your ride home
You can't avoid her, she's in the air (in the air)
In between molecules of oxygen and carbon dioxide
Only in dreams, we see what it means
Reach out our hands, hold onto hers
But when we wake, it's all been erased
And so it seems, only in dreams
You walk up to her, ask her to dance
She says, "Hey, baby, I just might take the chance"
You say, "It's a good thing that you float in the air (in the air)
That way, there's no way I will crush your pretty toenails into a thousand pieces..."
Only in dreams, we see what it means
Reach out our hands, hold onto hers
But when we wake, it's all been erased
And so it seems, only in dreams
[Post-Chorus]
Only in dreams, only in dreams, only in dreams!
Only in dreams, only in dreams, only in dreams, only in dreams...
