Good Neighbor

I see life pass from inside out,
shut up all day.
My world ain't black n' white,
just several shades of grey.
I can see you're sleepin'
Your light's gone dim.
I'm howlin' round your back door
Won't you let me in?
When I see you girl
I nearly go insane.
I get so worked up
I can't remember my name.
I can see you're sleepin'
Your light's gone dim.
I'm howlin' round your back door
Won't you let me in?
You don't see me
walk right past me in the light
You can't ignore me
when I find you in the night.
I can see you're sleepin'
Your light's gone dim.
I'm howlin' round your back door
Won't you let me in?
I'm sniffin' round your door step
'bout to dig right in.
But wait! You left your dog door open!
Let the fun begin!
(howl)

Heart Tax

Money cost time
takin' all of mine
Got me workin' hard
You're in charge
I shoulda paid attention
before I bought into you
Goin' broke, goin' broke
so I don't get brokenhearted.
If money spoke, if money spoke,
it would tell me I'm retarded
I'm taxed
Can't relax
Seein' red
Losin' green
Buying possesions
My heart's gone into recession
I should feel like a rich man
just to get to hold your hand
but your palms are always up
I need a loan just to keep up
I think I need to get away
all I am is your payday
I just need some kind of loan
I just need to be alone
Goin' broke, goin' broke
So I won't be brokenhearted.
If money spoke, if money spoke,
it would tell me I'm retarded
Goin' broke, goin' broke
So I won't be brokenhearted.
If money spoke, if money spoke,
it would tell me I'm retarded

She Actually Loved Me
02:50
|
|||
I haven't slept in three whole nights
but I can't get out of bed.
Keep thinking all the things I did and what I should have said.
Know that she's not coming back
I could write a million songs
My friends say I've given up and that I should move on.
What hurts is that she actually loved me.
She said she'd be better off without me.
So I, I just let her leave.
I can't believe she actually loved me.
Thought that I was doing fine
then I saw her at the store.
She's hanging on to Mr. Frank
I could tell there was more
Still her voice around the house
Try to find it every time
I'm sick and tired of chasing ghosts
I'm losing my mind.
What hurts is that she actually loved me.
She said she'd be better off without me.
So I, I just let her leave.
I can't believe she actually loved me.
Not afraid to leave the house
or just to hear her name.
No longer overcome with dread
when the forecast calls for rain.
I'm eatin' more and drinkin' less.
I just worked a full day.
Then days add up and turn to weeks
and April turned to May.
What's nice is that she actually loved me.
and that she's really better off without me.
And now I can finally see
what she, she did for me.
That's all, that's all we were meant to be
I can't believe she actually loved me.

Dating a Stripper
02:21
|
|||
It's a beautiful sight,
her eyes in this light.
She's looking so good tonight.
She's holding my hand.
I'm her number one man
and I'm her number one fan.
She won't get home 'til morning
That was my first warning
I'm dating a stripper
I just wanna be with her
I know it's not right
but I don't wanna fight
I'm dating a stripper.
I'm taking her home.
She feels all alone.
When we walk in,
my mom dropped the phone.
My mom expected plain
not this hot little flame.
Then it came time for me to explain.
She's not that kind of dancer.
Her stage name is Prancer...
Any guy can get a peek in the VIP.
But what they cannot see is her
comin' home with me.
I'm dating a stripper.
I just wanna be with her.
I know it's not right
but I don't want to fight
I'm dating a stripper.
I just wanna be with her.
I know it's not right
but I'm getting lucky tonight.
I'm dating a stripper.

The Love of the Gods
04:04

Say there ladies, step right up and find yourself a man.
I know you can that is unless you're a nun,
or married or into girls or something like that.
Come to think of it, maybe you're thinking about
being single for a while
Maybe for you the solo life is the right style,
well, that's all right, baby because...
I got time, I can wait.
My love won't die and neither will I.
I am immortal, I am a god.
That's the only explanation for this hot bod.
Now I know you been hurt before
maybe by forces beyond your control
like a hurricane, herpes, or the death of Heath Ledger.
But I been doing my research into ancient Norse mythology
and the cure for your broken heart is something no mortal means can mend.
What you need is the Love of the Gods, and lookee here, one's standing right before you...
What luck! It must be fate!
It's okay if you think I'm cocky and conceited.
People often get arrogance and divinity confused.
Maybe you're scared about going god-style,
well, that's all right, baby because...
I got time, I can wait
My love won't die and neither will I.
I am immortal, I am a god.
That's the only explanation for this hot bod.

Dude Won't Die Lincoln, Nebraska
Dude Won't Die is a musical shapeshifting entity which resides in the middlest of America. When not crafting post-modern digestible power-pop-doom-rock songs, the amorphous members of DWD spend their time working on The Earworm Farm, which is pretty close to a full-time gig. ... more
