Leftovers
Thinking what should I do now I don't have you
Facing my demotion, I'm just a fish in your ocean
Has been, that's what I am, with no backstage wristband
I'm freaking, seconds of you, that's not what I'm used to
Feed, feed 'em all to me
I'm careful with my stuff
What's your policy?
First one's free
I save 'em up, I put 'em in my pocket
I save 'em up, put 'em in a jar
I save 'em up, I'm gonna need 'em for later
I save 'em up, then they'll go real far
Hand me downs, I'll the takedowns
I take the leftovers
Cold ones and the old ones
Better than no ones
Feed, feed 'em all to me
I'm careful with my stuff
What's your policy?
First one's free
I save 'em up, I put 'em in my pocket
I save 'em up, put 'em in a jar
I save 'em up, I need 'em for later
I save 'em up, then they'll go real far
I time it out, gotta be real careful
I time it out, get 'em right on time
I time it out, I get 'em when I need 'em
Time is up, what's left is over
It's over
I can never have enough
Oh, I can never have enough
I sure am greedy
Hand 'em over to me
Nothing's free
I save 'em up, I put 'em in my pocket
I save 'em up, put 'em in a jar
I save 'em up, gonna need 'em for later
I save 'em up, then they'll go real far
I time it out, I'll be real careful
I time it out, get 'em right on time
I time it out, I get 'em when I need 'em
Time is up, what's left is over
Oh, I need 'em,
Yeah, I need 'em
Because I need 'em
Time is up, what's left is over
I time it out, I time it out, because I need 'em
I really need 'em
What should I do, now I don't have you?
I really need 'em, I really need 'em
Hand me downs, the takedowns
I take the leftovers

Under Construction
His accent serenades me and presses at the door
Broken promise to be around for my mind war
And my accomplishment's interrogating me
Today's become tomorrow before I wanted it to be
And desperate discussions
The start of the destruction
Our sign, in my mind
I'll be fine
I'll be fine
'Cause I'm under construction everyone
So you'll have to mind the mess
I'm under some construction
I always had to try harder, I never really could keep up
Sitting in the corner with my illness and bad luck
But in this humble place I'm feeling like red wine
And I hope to get better
With some time I'll be fine
With some time
I'll be fine
'Cause I'm under construction everyone
So you'll have to mind the mess
I'm under some construction
Construction
Modification
Motivation
Of construction
And the rituals that soothe and disgust me will be gone
With some time I'll be fine
With some time
I'll be fine
I'll be fine
I'm under construction everyone
So you'll have to mind the mess
I'm under some construction
I'm under construction everyone
So you'll have to mind the mess
I'm under some construction
Under construction
Construction
Feel better with some

Beauty Contest
Damsel in distress is quite submissive
Look how somber my vanity is
A feminine human creature
Superficial, seducing detour
I'm going to the mall for the cookie cutter
The ugly duckling will always suffer
Contaminated standards, I try to fight it
I better get back on my diet
Obsessed with the beauty contest
Beauty contest
How'd my vanity get such a mess?
Beauty contest
I'm obsessed
Reduce myself, I got the strict restrictions
Not sexy enough without the regulations
A melting point countdown the fading features
Born to blossom and bloom to perish
Obsessed with the beauty contest
Beauty contest
Oh, I've got to get out of this mess
Beauty contest
I'm obsessed
And I've fallen
I can't help myself
I'm feeling envious of all the rest
You're bringing out the lemming in me
A victim of the cattle call disease
Not easy to be me
I feel so lame
Obsessed with the beauty contest
Beauty contest
How'd my vanity get such a mess?
Obsessed with the beauty contest
Obsessed with the beauty contest
Beauty contest
I've got to get out of this mess
Obsessed with the beauty contest
Obsessed with the beauty contest
Beauty contest
How'd my vanity get such a mess?
Caught up in the beauty contest
Caught up in the beauty contest
Caught up in the beauty contest
Caught up in the beauty contest
Caught up in the beauty contest
And I feel so lame
How'd my vanity get such a mess?
(Madeline) My vanity's a mess

Full Circle
All I've ever touched or said to them
Becomes a rehearsal for you, just practicing
Too many magic moments to be coincidence
It all comes full circle
I knew someone who knew you
And he introduced me to you
Your ex-girlfriend had a boyfriend
Who kissed my girlfriend
Who dated Adrian
The world keeps on getting smaller and smaller
And everything comes back full circle, full circle
Six degrees of seperation
We all know someone else
It all comes full circle
And you come from England
My ex-boyfriend, he is Indian
British passport, we're all connected
And everyone else is affected
The world keeps on getting smaller and smaller
And everything comes back full circle, full circle
Six degrees of seperation
We all know someone else
It all comes full circle
It all comes full circle
The world keeps on getting smaller and smaller
And everything comes back full circle, full circle
Six degrees of seperation
We all know someone else
It all comes full circle
The world keeps on getting smaller and smaller
And everything comes back full circle, full circle
Six degrees of seperation
We all know someone else
It all comes full circle

Cellophane Boy
And I'm not the judge or the referree
And I can't accept, 'cause I am uptight
And the smoke clying into my eyes are burning
My concern is I just might get a new life
And I can't relate to the hypnotist
And I can't get close, 'cause of plastic wrap
And I want to have kids, but their father's up inside the clouds
The distance between us on my mind
Up until now things have been fine, temporarily
You're cute, but the circumstances have changed
Your subtition method crutch
Your whole protection from your fame
There's presentation on my ploy
Is to change my cellophane boy
Aoh, it's not the 70s
Let your future fly with me
Up until now things have been fine, temporarily
You're cute, but the circumstances have changed
Your subtition method crutch
Your whole protection from your fame
There's presentation on my ploy
Is to change my cellophane boy
And I want your habit to be me
Your harbor and your refugee

New Friend
Mind my own business
I'm on my journey
And I enough old friends
To keep me company
To say hey what's up
You want to hook up
You wanna hang out with me
Kick back, relax, feel happy and lazy
You sent to me, one time
You come to me, two times
Why me? A-three times
Abracadabra now I've got a new friend
Let me introduce you to my new friend
Whoa, I got a new friend
Let me introduce you to my new friend
Whoa, I got a new friend
Mind my own business,
I'm on my journey
Eye against eye on my journey
We're happily interrupted
Extremes are extremes
With my brand new friend
We test the boundaries
Like a little kitties whiskers cautiously
Experimental expression downward looks
You come and sniff around
I'm not sure what to do
Like a big explosion
Magically look at me
I think I might have found a new friend
Let me introduce you to my new friend
Whoa, I got a new friend
Let me introduce you to my new friend
Whoa, I got a new friend
Mind my own businessI'm on my journey
(Ah shit)
Mind my own businessI'm on my journey
(Ah shit)
You sent to me, one time
You come to me, two times
Why me? A-three times
Serial monogamy, I've got a new friend!
(repeat chorus)
Mind my own business
I'm on my journey
And I enough old friends
To keep me company
To say hey what's up,
You want to hook up
You wanna hang out with me
Kick back, relax, feel happy and lazy
It's in my headIt's only in my head
It's in my headIt's only in my head
It's in my headIt's only in my head
It's in my headIt's only in my head

Oi To The World
Haji was a punk just like any other boy
And he never had no trouble until he started up his Oi band
Safe in the garage or singing in the tub
Till Haji went to far and he plugged in at the pub
It was a cold Christmas eve when Trevor and the skins
Popped in for a pint and to nick a back of crisps
Trevor liked the music but not the Unity
So he unwound Haji's turban and knocked him to his knees
If god came down on Christmas Day
I know exactly what he'd say
He'd say "Oi to the punks and Oi to the skins -
But Oi to the world and everybody wins!"
Haji was a bloody mess, he ran out thru the crowd
He said "We'll meet again we are bloody but not unbowed"
Trevor called his bluff and told him where to meet
Christmas day on the roof down 20 Oxford street
If god came down on Christmas Day
I know exactly what he'd say
He'd say "Oi to the punks and Oi to the skins -
But Oi to the world and everybody wins!"
On the roof with the nun chucks Trevor broke a lot of bones
But Haji had a sword like that guy in Indiana Jones
Police sirens wailing, a bloody dying man
Haji was alone and abandoned his band
Trevor was there fading and still so full of hate
When the skins left him there and went down the fire escape
But then Haji saw the north star shining more then ever
So he made a tourniquet from his turban saving Trevor
The repelled down the roof with the rest of the turban
And went back to the pub where they bought each other bourbon
If god came down on Christmas Day
I know exactly what he'd say
He'd say "Oi to the punks and Oi to the skins -
But Oi to the world and everybody wins!"
If god came down on Christmas Day
I know exactly what he'd say
He'd say "Oi to the punks and Oi to the skins -
But Oi to the world and everybody wins!"

I Throw My Toys Around
I've got no time for fairy stories
I'm not a little girl
So you can leave me all alone
And turn off the lights as well
If you are frightened
Then listen
But I don't think you'd like it
Such a nice kid
Nobody's lookin' now
I'll throw my toys around
Somebody's being very bad
I wonder who it can be
Somebody's gonna get in trouble
I know it isn't me
I'm just a little angel
But you don't know what I've done
When your back's turned
Nobody's lookin' now
(nobody's lookin')
I'll throw my toys around
(with Elvis:)
Pick up those building blocks
Chop off the baby's locks
Swing dolly by the hair
Put down that teddy bear
Slam dunk a happy clown
I throw my toys around
I've got no time for bedtime stories
I'm not a little child
Everything makes me furious
And everything makes me wild
If you are frightened then whistle
And I'll come runnin' you
As you boo hoo
Nobody's lookin' now
(nobody's lookin')
I'll throw my toys around
Nobody's lookin' now
(nobody's lookin')
I'll throw my toys around
(Elvis -) I throw my toys around
(Gwen -) I'll throw my toys around
(Elvis -) I throw my toys around
(Gwen -) I'll throw my toys around
(Elvis -) I throw my toys around
(Gwen -) I'll throw my toys around
(Elvis -) I throw my toys around
(Gwen -) I'll throw my toys around
(Elvis -) I throw my toys around
(Gwen -) I'll throw my toys around
