1.Far Behind
All i need is a walking cane
To guide me on my way
A hat to push away the rain
That would be okay
Starting over to begin
I'm standing here too strong
I never thought i'd ever see at all
I stand to tall, but i shrink away
I never thought i could feel as good
As the way i feel today
So i run away...
Cause things aren't quite going my way
Run away from yesterday
Tomorrow will be free
I slipped today, but that's okay
I need a new routine
Those who live and those who die
Shining like the sun
All trying to peak over the wall
I stand to tall, but i shrink away
I never thought i could feel as good
As the way i feel today
So i run away...
Cause things aren't quite going my way
And when i turned on mtv
I saw just what i wanted to be
But that was yesterday
And things aren't quite going my way...
2.Please
Why must you pick on me? have you no sympathy? i'm just trying
to get to school. i lack popularity, no friends to ride with me.
so i'm alone in the car pool (lane). when i saw those flashing
lig
When i heard you read my rights, i knew this wasn't gonna be my
day...so, officer please don't ticket me, my violation doesn't
deserve a citation. please, i won't bother you so don't bother
me.
;sorry son but that's what i've got to do.' i'm tired of these
stupid rules. i've got to waste my day at traffic school, and on
top of that i've got to pay a fine. the chp likes to pick on
Hey've got no sympathy. they're nothing but fat red neck swine.
(chorus)
3.When Will I Learn
I bought everything that you asked for, everything but you
wanted more, i guess i wasn't quite enough. i did everything
that you asked me to, everything that i could do, i guess i
wasn't quite e
. i should have acted like a hopeless pessimist, 'cause i know
that you're a sucker for that type, and if i told you i was
gonna kill myself, maybe then you'd comfort me and hold me
tight. i to
U every place that you wanted to go, every single place that i
know, i guess i wasn't quite enough. i told you everything that
you wanted to hear, i said i love you in your ear, i guess i
wasn't
E enough. (chorus)
4.Diane
i've been in a bind for a while
I can't find this girl is quite my style
Ever since she walked out on me.
You were the one for me.
We'd sit and watch our mtv.
Why did you have to walk out on me.
I'm reaching insanity.
I'm reaching insanity.
Yeah diane come back to me.
I'll be everything that we can be.
I'll join the football team.
Diane come back to me.
You are the only one for me.
You are my destiny.
Please tell me it wasn't right.
Two stared crossed lovers in the night.
Why did you have to walk out on me.
You were the one for me.
We'd sit and watch our mtv.
Why did you have to walk out on me.
I'm reaching insanity.
I'm reaching insanity.
Yeah diane come back to me.
I'll be everything that we can be.
I'll lose my dinity.
Diane come back to me.
You are the only one for me.
You are my destiny.
Diane come back to me.
I'll be everything that we could be.
Popularity.
Popularity.
5.Don't Worry
So you know that everybody's going to the ska show when it used
to be just you. you feel betrayed, alone, left out. all your
favorite bands have all sold out. and now you see them on mtv.
no way
're gonna remember little old me, what's become of the ska
scene? all the bands want money. all the bands are mean. so
please come out to the show tonight. i promise everything is
gonna be all r
The boys are gonna start a pit. but all you wanna do is dance,
you're sick of this punk bit.
6.Celebrate
You think that you could walk out on me. you think that i'll be
there when you're in need. i celebrate my days of hate 'cause
now i see that you're nothing to me. so go out and get with any
guy
Ind. don't come crawling back when you're in need. (chorus)
7.Irie
People now, people now, where ever you are say irie...(irie)
How can I show you that I cannot not see?
How can I show you that my life's a lie?
Got the world round thinking that I feel Irie
Would you believe me if I told you I RAST-I-FAR-I
Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah...
I'm gonna pass the structure from the left hand side
Well maybe then everyone will like me?
I'm gonna jump punk rock, and throw the horse shoe
spend five dollars on coffee, Well.
Chorus
The superficial life is wrong
I won't look cool if I HIT THE BONG
Maybe I should be, different from everybody
Or maybe I should be, or maybe I should be me.
People now people now, wherever you are say Irie.
People now people now, say Irie after me, Irie.
8.Asleep At The Wheel
It's two in the morning, i'm tired as hell. what am i doing
behind the wheel? the lights have all blurred into a row. how
long i'll be up, i just don't know. i'm falling asleep, asleep

This feels like a dream but this is real. i've got a lot on my
mind, i've been driving all night. you can bet i'll be driving
when out comes the light. i've been on the road so long that i'm
gon
Ack, i've been 'on the road' longer than jack kerouac. (chorus)
9.So Lonely
Well someone told me yesterday that when you throw your love
away you act as if you don't care you look as if you're going
somewhere but i just can't convince myself i couldn't live with
no one
And i can only play that part and sit and nurse my broken heart
so lonely so lonely so lonely so lonely so lonely so lonely so
lonely so lonely so lonely so lonely so lonely so lonely now no
one
Ocked upon my door for a thousand years or more all made up and
nowhere to go welcome to this one man show just take a seat
they're always free no surprise no mystery in this theatre that
i call
Oul i always play the starring role so lonely so lonely so
lonely so lonely so lonely so lonely so lonely so lonely so
lonely so lonely so lonely so lonely so lonely so lonely so
lonely so lonel
Lonely so lonely so lonely

great. nothing matters any more!
My grades have dropped i'm such a schmuck, but i don't care i
