- - - when jennifer sings - - - |
pale white girl, puts her beat up
guitar case on the ground
pulled hair back, won't stare back
cigarette in her mouth
granola
not older, than 23 maybe 24
she smoulders, her shoulders
rise and fall as she hits the floor
what happened next, I can't really describe
but it's what this song's about, so I gotta try
then Jennifer sings
my god it must be an angel, must be an angel
when Jennifer sings
see Jennifer's wings
her eyes bright, her skin white
stark against a dark guitar
she strums chords, then strums more
every inch of a star
the room's still, we've all chills
perfect note after perfect note
she gazes, amazes
where have you been and where will you go
I didn't think I could be so moved
but I've been wrong before and once again it is proved | |

what's a boy to do, with one who looks like you
you make him feel confused, you make him feel a fool
then what's a boy to say, to make it all ok
if you would lead the way, you would make his every day
noone wants a grey sky, hanging over their life
when you know the sunshine, is on its way
hold out for the blue sky, hold out for the blue sky
nothing else will chase away the rain
so what's a girl to do, with the stares coming from you
you know that the look is true, make her trust, show her proof
tell her you like her style, tell her you love her smile
tell her you'd walk a thousand miles, like that proclaimer's song
all you ask is one small chance
to have a kiss or the last dance
to be yourself and be all hers
to read your eyes when there's no words
and all she wants is just the same
she tires of all the endless games
she wants to know just where she stands
as she holds out her perfect hand and ... | |
- - - can this be true - - - |
I called you up four times today
But you were never there
You walked past me yesterday
Like I wasn't there
Why don't you want to talk to me?
Please say some words if you really care
I think that there is someone else
That makes you leave ne all alone
Someone that you love more than me
Can this be true
I've heard it from all your friends
that we are all washed out
I think it's a crying shame
That we can't get get it all worked out
Why won't you stop and talk to me
I want you back it's not too late | |
- - - fireball - - - |
my girl she's a fireball
she's the last call of my day
she's the one that's always on
she knows just what to say
she's so perfect, she's so worth it
she makes everything alright
she's got talents others haven't
everything I like
I'm alive and it's all your fault
I guess I'll do another day
i'm alive and it's what I want
coz you blow my soul away
thinking of a number
and you know that number's two
my most favorite day is one
that starts and ends with you
she's so agile, she's so fragile
you make everything alright
who'd have guessed I'd be this blessed
everything's just right | |
- - - hey there - - - |
ain't nobody gonna get me down today
take that sad face and turn it the other way
I'm sure you think you have it rough right now
but there's people worse off and that's why you're hearin' me say
hey there now, don't you fret about a thing
hey there now, it's the perfect time to sing
this song, o hoh
trust me the answer's right there where you can see
but you have to look first or you won't see the wood for the trees
and don't give up if you don't see it straight away
all you have to do is try to make it ok | |
- - - let it go - - - |
let go of the little things
that's what she said
you'll never get anywhere
carrying all of that around
time to brush away
the dust in my head
open the windows
and let fresh air in
and let you share in
i never could tell the right time
but you said, 'I got that covered babe'
i never would notice the good times
till you, said, you gotta let it go
you gotta let it go
go slow, don't you rush around
stop smell the roses
and I don't suppose that's the
perfume that you're wearing now
time to put away
nefarious notions
and love spells and potions
and time to rely on those things on which
we can agree | |
- - - visiting christine - - - |
the sun is shining in her eyes
and other times it's the stars
feeling lonely, feeling down
she reminds you who you are
all the boys that she has known
she, remembers all their names
and all the stones that they might throw
will never make her change
we're visiting christine
i like her style
she's one for whom you'd walk for miles
to see her smile
visiting christine
it's always fine
she blurs the line between hers and mine
and takes her time
after hours, anytime
the lights are always blue
it doesn't matter where you are
she has the time for you
some misinterpret her ideals
because they can't understand
if she's so perfect, why can't you see
what's in her other hand | |
- - - midnight train - - - |
thinking about a cliche
that kinda sums up my day
is it SSDD, does it matter to me
i don't know
it's only a Tuesday
a day of abuse day
just a noise in my ear, I complain to my beer
then I go
someone please tell me what comes next
coz i don't wanna have to kill again
I need a midnight train
to take me away
I dunno I don't care,
'bout how fast or to where
it should go
they need my reports now
i don't even know how
i just bang random keys
hope they like what they see,
but no way
it's only a Wednesday
an 'it never ends' day
it's only the hump, but I think I should jump
from the roof | |
