Finally (1999)
B-MOVIE:
NO
I won’t be a part of your B-Movie.
I won’t wind up on your cutting floor.
I think you should find yourself another lover.
Cause I won’t co-star with your
attitude.

and Oscar slippped right through your hands.
I do believe you could of been a star
but I won’t be your leading man.
Don’t wanna be.
Don’t want the starring role in your B-Movie.
NO
Don’t think of me as your stepping stone.
Another extra on your show.
Now we both know what it is that could have been.
But now I guess we’ll never know.
Your double feature just got bad reviews
and Oscar slippped right through your hands.
I do believe you could have been a star,
but I won’t be your leading man.
Don’t wanna be.
Don’t want the starring role in your B-Movie.

Hey diddle diddle the cat and the fiddle, we got time for just one more dance.
Little boy blue the man’s after you. Better leave town while you got the chance.
Jack and Jill both looking for a thrill, headed to the seedy side of town.

fix.
Georgie Georgie pudding and pie if you take too much junk, you will surely die.

But it takes a little honesty and it takes a little trust.
I will bring you down.
You knew what was good for you but then you lied to me.
But you lied to everyone and called it purgery.
But when you least expect it , I’ll be right behind you.
There’ll be no
tomorrow, cause I will bring you down.
I will bring you down.
WORDS:
I can’t seem to talk to you. My words they won’t come out right.
When I try to speak to you, my tongue you know it gets all tied.
Your taste it’s on my lips. Your touch is at my fingertips.
Your face, it’s all I see. Why won’t my heart just let me be?
I’ve been thinking of you, so much my head it hurts all the time.
Sitting here talking to myself, I’m about to lose my worried mind.
I was going to write you but my pen and paper just want to fight.
I get so frightened sometimes cause I try and try and try as I might.
Alright
I wanna dream about you but I can’t sleep all alone in the night.
Why won’t I call you. Only seven numbers and the phone don’t bite.
I’ve gotta get these demons off my chest.
I wanna be different, not like therest.
My blood it’s racing way too fast.
I want so much for this moment to last.
But that’s in my past.
I’ve been thinking of you, so much my head it hurts all the time.
Sitting here talking to myself, I’m about to lose my worried mind.
I really need to be with you but loneliness seems to be my plight.
My feelings get so weighted down, my sencerity just refuses to fly.
Bye Bye
I can’t seem to talk to you. My words they won’t come out right.
Every time I try to speak, my tongue you know it gets all tied.
I wanna dream about you , but I can’t sleep alone in the night.
I get so frightened sometimes cause I try and try and try as I might.
My words , they won’t come out right.
SO FAR AWAY:
Feels like this time it’s gone to far. And you’re so far away.
Our love it didn’t go bad. It got lost along the way.
I wish that I could go back and try another way.
Now I’m trying but I just can’t.
Crying but I just can’t.
Dying cause I just can’t let you go.
It’s not the way that I want it. It’s not the way it should be.
When I see your face, I see the place where your love used to be.
Now I’m trying but I just can’t.
Crying but I just can’t.
Dying cause I just can’t let you go.
You lied to me. You lied to yourself.
When you said you gave your all.
Catch me as I fall.
Trying but I just can’t . Crying but I just can’t.
Dying cause I just can’t let you go.
GODLESS:
Where is the savior, where is the messiah?
Where is the peace, I can’t seem to find ya.
Where is the justice, where is your proof?
Love has left town and that’s the truth.
Fly me away to a place that’s far from here.
I don’t wanna stay. Just want to disappear.
Fighting and killing and unnatural acts.
Kids, guns, and gangs, it’s just a matter of fact.
Why has our world become so cold?
God wash us off and cleanse our souls.
Lord take me away from this world so full of hate.
I’m leaving today. Fall to my knees and pray.
It’s time for faith , it’s time for some prayer.
No time to waste when the world don’t care.
Fly me away to a place that’s far from here.
I don’t wanna stay. I just wanna disappear.
Lord take me away from this world so full of hate.
I’m leaving today. Don’t let this be our fate.
You’re all godless.
The world is godless.
We’re all godless.
Stop the hate.
THE BEST OF ME:
I used to have me a woman who was so good to me.
She would make me laugh, giggle, and smile. She would keep me company.
But time hasn’t been such a good friend to me.
Cause now she’s gone and I need her love oh so desperately.
She didn’t have a problem leaving. She didn’t even think twice.
Said that she had her reasons.
But I want to know what froze your heart to make it cold as ice.
We used to spend everyday as if it was our last.
We didn’t think about the future, but we didn’t dwell on the past.
But I soon found out that I was tricked. The wool was pulled over my eyes.
My sweet little angel was just the devil in disguise.
So put your "W"in the win column baby. My defeat I realize.
You said you needed more well that’s your problem.
One of these days somebody's gonna cut you down to size.
I can’t keep from crying. You can’t stop your lying.
What’s the use in trying. Cause your excuses I’m not buying.
It’s time to move on to other things and spread my wings and start flying.
So long.
A black cat has crossed my path. The walls are closing in on me.
Let it be written on my epitaph that a woman has gotten the best of me.
Save Me. Save Me. All is lost.
DO IT TO YOU:
You give me something that I can’t get at home.
Late at night , I’m knocking at your door.
But danger’s my drink of choice and I think I’ll have myself one more.
So baby don’t complain when I do what I do.
I do what I do and I’ll do it to you.
It be my guess you’d like to be my guest
and do the things that boys and girls do.
I must confess if she takes off that dress,
I’m in a world of hurt you know it’s true.
So baby don’t complain when I do what I do.
I do what I do and I’ll do it to you.
How I love to play when that mean ol’ cat’s away.
We play the game of cat and mouse.
BAYBERRY DUNES:
Well we’re leaving today.
My bags are packed and our troubles are left behind.
Headed to a place where the seafood is good and the women are fine.
Me and my bro’ we’re letting it all hang out.
Gonna do the things that we dig the most.
Gonna catch a buzz, hang out with my cuz’.
Man, I really dig the coast.
Everything’s gonna be alright at Bayberry Dunes on a hot summer night.
A vacation trip we’ve been longing for. String bikinis and more.
We’re gonna fun in the sun.
Gonna get all undone in the sun.
The Old Bay spice it’s hot on my lips. The crab is the best in the land.
Swimming in the ocean, I got my suntan lotion and I’m working on a tan.
The boardwalk’s bright with bright shiny gifts
and the bars have hard rocking bands.
Driving down the shore to Nicolas once more.
Man, their bolis are grand.
Everything’s gonna be alright. Cruising Ocean City on a hot summer night.
Well, I feel in love at least a dozen times. Walking down the line.
We’re having fun in the sun . Baby I’m the one. Nobody knows my name.
Take me to the beach where there’s sand under my feet.
I don’t think it’s going to rain.
Hell No!
Everything’s gonna be alright. Swimming buck on a hot summer night.
If I had it may way, I would do it all again. Is the tide coming in?
We’re having fun in the sun. Baby I’m the one. Nobody knows my name.
Take me to the beach where there’s sand under my feet.
I don’t think it’s going to rain.
We’re having fun in the sun and I’m the one. Nobody knows my name.
Well I’ll meet you at the beach where there’s sand under my feet.
I don’t think I’ll be the same. Bye Bye Baby.
We’re having fun in the sun.
HEADED WEST:
She came to me on New Year’s Eve.
Made me wear my heart out on my sleeve.
Now she’s leaving and I still can’t believe
that I didn’t try to keep her here with me.
She’s departing this place and headed for another.
I guess every baby eventually leaves it’s mother
and she’s headed west.
Brought to my attention at one of my shows.
Seemed shy and quiet but her face had a glow.
She’ll soon be gone and now I know,
that she’s thawed my heart that’s been frozen cold.
Baby, I wish you the best.
Every bird eventually leaves it’s nest
and she’s headed west.
She’s goin’ where she belongs.
Where you can smell the ocean and the weather’s warm.
She’s goin’ where she needs to be.
0n the coast, in the sand by the sea.
She’s headed west.
Sometimes, I think I tried too hard.
My friends keep tellin’ me, I didn’t try at all.
So I guess I’ll say it in a song.
I think I’m falling. Oh God I’m Falling. Yeah.
Call on me if you need a friend.
I’ll be that midwestern Valentino that you can depend..
I’ll write you letters that I’ll probably never send.
It’s so sad every beginning must have an end.
You really put my heart to the test.
God, your face, I’m gonna miss.
Now there’s an empty space in my chest
where you used to be.
JOKER:
I remember a time when you owned me.
Had your collar tied around my throat.
For days and nights your love, it would stone me.
But now is then and that was long ago.
Don’t tell me what to wear. How to look, think, or act.
Stand up straight, mind your manners, comb your hair,
say your prayers, and don’t talk back.
The king of clubs, he’s a beating me down.
The ace of spades is nobody’s clown.
The jack of diamonds, he’s a playing to win.
My queen of hearts, She’s a crying again.
I still can recall when I was under your rule.
My hands were tied, I was playing your fool.
I couldn’t think straight when I was under your spell.
My heart was in tatters, my soul was in hell.
I never could just be myself. Had to lie, cheat, and bend the truth.
Listening to you bitch, whine, and moan, you’re making me old in my youth.
The king of clubs, he’s still beating me down.
The ace of spades is nobody’s clown.
The jack of diamonds, he’s a playing to win.
My queen of hearts is a crying again.
The joker’s gonna have, This joker’s gonna have the last laugh
.
Your time it’s fading fast. Struggling for air, it’s your last gasp.
Forget about the past. The joker’s gonna have the last laugh.
Your rein it’s ended at last.
The joker’s gonna have the last laugh. HA HA HA HA!!
Don’t tell me how to look, think, or act.
Shut your trap, you dig? and don’t talk back.
TWO SIDES 2 LOVE:
It used to be so hard to say I love you. I tried so hard to stay away.
All that you wanted was a piece of me. You got what you wanted.
Now the
memory’s left with me.
Now I see two sides to love. One is happiness. One’s the heartbreak.
Two sides to love.
Another year has come and gone and nothing has changed.
I wish you well but I know I won’t be the same.
A broken heart you can’t sell , and what a price to pay.
Although you can’t really tell. I might be leaving today cause I see.
Two sides to love. One is happiness. One’s the heartbreak.
Two sides to love. One comes naturally. One is hard to take.
Two sides to love.
It used to be so hard to say I love you.
DOWNTOWN:
My baby told me just the other day that our sex, it needs a little spice.
We need something to break the monotony
and give the bedroom just a bit more
life.
I said baby what’d you have in mind, she said a little face would be nice.
Now I don’t wanna be a stick in the mud
but I think I’m gonna have to draw the line.
She wants me doing things that I don’t want. She wants me down on my knees.
If you put your head between my thighs, I’ll show you how it pleases me.
My baby wants me to go downtown. But my mouth, it doesn’t make a sound.
My nerve is lost and cannot be found.
The wheels in my head are spinning round and round.
All my friends really think I’m a clown cause I don’t like to go downtown.
This may sound just a little profound, but what goes up, must come down.
It’s kinda funny, it so tongue and cheek.
Lift up them covers baby and let me take a peek.
She gets frustrated, says we got us a problem.
I don’t feel so bad, it’s not the cradle I’m robbing.
I guess I’m gonna have to go with the flow and try to take everything in stride.
Because now I’m being put on the spot,
I’m gonna have to swallow more then my pride.
She wants me doing things that I don’t want.
Says it’s time to satisfy her
needs.
Go on down below the border baby and put you head down between my knees.
Baby go down. Oh baby go down.
JUST SAY GOODBYE:
Don’t want to see you live your life this way.
I don’t want to see you lose your pride today.
Second best, or so they say. You know the rest or so you say.
You don’t want to love me. You don’t wanna try.
You don’t wanna see me shine. You just wanna say.....
Just say goodbye.
I don’t wanna see you all alone today. I don’t wanna see you cry.
Second best, or so they say. He’s just like the rest or so today.
I don’t wanna love you. I don’t wanna try.
I don’t wanna see you smile. I just wanna say.....
Just say goodbye.
You don’t wanna love me. You don’t wanna try.
You don’t wanna see me shine.
Just say goodbye.
