Tadpole - Better Days
Sometimes I feel lonely and I crave human company
I miss sleep it's
nice, haven't had much of it 'round here
Sometimes I feel sorrow and
there's no way to release it
It wells up inside, don't have no one
here with whom to share it,
Except you, you're nice
Sometimes I feel guilty and I wish I could absolve it
I miss peace
it's nice, haven't had much of it 'round here lately
I miss peace,
it's nice.
I've had better days...
There's no way to break through
I'm trying to break through
'cause
I feel in slow-mo
And there's no way to break through
'cause I
feel in slo-mo
Sometimes I feel joyous and there's no way to explain it
it burns me
inside, never lasts long enough to become a custom
I miss this, it's
nice
Sometimes I feel jealous and I'm not sure that I like it,
It
hurts me inside, don't quite have the strength in me to remove it,
I
miss you, you're nice.
I've had better days...
There's no way to breakthrough...
Sometimes I feel a burden and I wish I could remove me
Do you like
me, that's nice
Haven't seen much of me 'round here lately
Do you
miss me, that's nice
Sometimes I think I'm drowning and I wish someone would save me
That's
not likely now
Don't quite have the strength in me to resist it,
I
don't care, it's nice.

Supergroove - My Best
So alone
No-one to call my own
I need someone
To make a fuss
Someone
to hold
Someone I can trust
Never ever to
Take me for granted
But
I'll let them if they must
So alone
No-one to call my own
I need someone to
Stay by me
Someone
to fortify me
She's on top of the world
Things have never been better
And I'm
glad in a way
Doing my best to forget her
So alone
All the people I've known
Are all tricky
Handshakes
and smiles
But in my absence they plot
And conspire
All these
people who
Wouldn't piss on me
If they knew I was on fire
So alone
No-one to call my own
I need someone to
Stay by me
Someone
to fortify me
She's on top of the world
Things have never been better
And I'm
glad in a way
Doing my best to forget her
So alone
No-one to call my own
I need someone to
Stay by me
Someone
to mortify me
So alone
No-one to call my own
I need someone to
Stay by me
Someone
to crucify me
She's on top of the world
Things have never been better
And I'm
glad in a way
Doing my best to forget her
Doing my best to
forget her
Doing my best to forget her
Betchadupa - Lucy's Song
Dreams don't excite you
And I hope that I do
Not much gets past you
But
you don't realise what I do
No you don't realise what I do
I grew so close to you
Like friends are supposed to
I laid beside
you
But you don't realise what i do
No you don't realise what i do
And now we're off again
My band, i'll stand
The same worries that
we bear
Well i care
What matters is the time we share
We share
I
only wanna be with you
But i won't lie
There'll come a time
I
know you're true
I'll wait for you
When times are hard
Don't
fall apart
I'm tied to you
You'll see me soon
The words i sigh
Before i die
We know are true
Cos i love you

Vorn - Take Your SUV and Fuck Off
Tsa long long ride from my house to work and the fates lie in wait yeah
they lurk round
Each corner at each intersection apocalypse beckons
with nasty metal claws
And they screech and skirl and snarl and snap
hear the hiss of the valves on the victory lap
And I can't help but
hunch up my shoulders and wait for the crunch
Of their impact
They're gonna run me down
Like they run down the chick from The
Stereolab
Run down the trees and the seas and the skies
Until all
the oil runs dry
In a factory not far away
There's a foreign guy working for minimum
wage
Making weapons to keep gasoline prices cheap
So some fucker
can afford to run me over
And he'll never know the part he played in
my demise
They're gonna run me down
Like they run down the chick from The
Stereolab
Run down the trees and the seas and the skies
Until all
the oil runs dry
They're gonna run me down
And I will fall like a domino struck by a
domino
Fall like all those who will follow will fall till there's no
one left alive
They're gonna run me down
Like they run down the chick from The
Stereolab
Run down the trees and the seas and the skies
Until
all the oil runs dry
They're gonna run me down
And I will fall like a domino struck by a
domino
Fall like all those who will follow will fall till there's no
one left alive

Phantom Planet - First Things First
You should get your story straight before I start to doubt itCuz if you've worn your lipstick off, I want to hear about it
And telling me would be such a breeze, tell me if you want to leave
I think I'm getting the drift
You want some time with your friends
On the nights and weekends
You take the time for yourself
Both of us used to spend
Before you make it better
Before you make it worse
First things first
I don't think it's an accident you treat me like a dummy
Hold on, Hold on
I've been asking for the truth at least just tell me something
Hold on, Hold on
And telling me would be such a breeze
Let me know, don't let me be
It's almost too easy
I'm holding you by the hand
More like the nape of your neck
Why don't you draw up a list you have to frequently check?
And put some things in order
And lose it in your purse
First things First

Klaxons - Isle of Her
Row! There's only seven more miles to go...Row! There's only seven more miles to go...
Row! There's only seven more miles to go...
Row! There's only seven more miles to go...
We'll reach the Isle of Her
We'll find the peacocks tail
We'll
steal the mother of pearl
We'll eat the dancing girls
Cyclops gazing alone
Facing mirrors that show
The reflection of
his own
Face to face
A hand on each of the oars
A hand on each of the oars
We're seven
miles from shore
Just keep on going

Scissor Sisters - Intermission
When you’re standing on the side of a hillFeeling like you didn’t be done
Here it comes, strawberry sponge
Chasing away the sun
Don't let those precious moments fool you
Happiness is getting you
down
A rainbow never smiles or blinks
It’s just a candy colored
frown
You were going on at half-past seven
Now it's going on a quarter 'til
nine
All the angels want to know
Are you lost or treading water?
And
you're going on your fifteenth bender
But you've only got a matter of
time
Yes we've all got seeds to sow
Not everyone's got lambs to
slaughter
When the night wind starts to turn
Into the ocean breeze
And the
dew drops sting and burn
Like angry honey bees
That is when you
hear the song falling from the sky
Happy yesterday to all
We were
born to die
Sometimes you're filled with the notion
The afterlife's a moment away
You
want to tell someone the way that you feel
But then you ain't got
nothing to say
You fight for freedom from devotion
A battle that
will always begin
With somebody giving you a piece of advice;
By
the way you're living in sin
Now there's never gonna’ be an intermission
But there'll always
be a closing night
Never entertain those visions
Lest you may have
packed your baggage
First impressions are cheap auditions
Situations
are long goodbyes
Truth so often living dormant
Good luck walks
and bullshit flies
Let the headlights guide your way
You know the place is right
When
the treetops sing and sway
Don't go to sleep tonight
That is when
you see the sign
Luminous and high:
Tomorrow's not what it used to
be
We were born to die
Happy yesterday to all
We were born to
die

Phantom Planet - Anthem
I woke up today a song was swimming in my headAnd I hummed it to myself as I got out of bed
And on the way to take a shower it all just dawned on me
That a song like this just might go down in history
I quickly ran back to get my guitar
A pen and some paper
'Cause this whole world needs an Anthem
And I'm trying to put the words where they belong
Yeah this whole world needs an Anthem
And I'm hoping everyone will sing along
Well I quickly got to work and put the song in gear
And my neighbor rang the doorbell said it caught his ear
I was playing it so loud the whole neighborhood could hear
And at night from every household it became quite clear
Everyone was singing along
The same notes the same song
Or maybe I heard it wrong
'Cause this whole world needs an Anthem
And I'm trying to put the words where they belong
Yeah this whole world needs an Anthem
And I'm hoping everyone will sing along.

Gomez - We Haven't Turned Around
We came, we came, we came againTo stem the tide and point the blame
Came back for more
Came back to see what you had in store
Everyone join the line, everyone
Yeah
So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world
around?
And anybody else, cut 'em down
So you wanna make
catastrophe?
Won't you send it right over to me
I got some time
Everybody
running high
The same, the same, the same again
To steal the time and haunt the
graves
Just because it's there
Don't mean you see it anywhere
Maybe
it's a trick of the light
Maybe, yeah
So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world
around?
And anybody else, cut 'em down
So you wanna make
catastrophe?
Don't you send it right over to me
I got some time
Everybody
come alive
Yeah
So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world
around?
And anybody else, bring 'em down
So you wanna make
catastrophe?
Don't you send it right over to me
I got some time
Everybody
running high
So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world
around?
And anybody else, cut 'em down
So you say we haven't
turned around?
So you say we haven't turned around?
Just everybody
else is going wrong
Going wrong

Blow Your Little Minds
Just a flash in the pan
To blow your little minds
The nucleus of
an atomic mine
Abducted by a Dutchman
Dressed to kill
And he's
gonna try
There's no one about
No one to see
What you're about to do
You
pick up your gun
Take off your shoe
For someone it's a clue
He
flips the switch
A level he pulls
It's gonna be the end
He
looks in the sky
Lines up his shot
He's aiming at you
It wasn't your fault
No matter what you feel
He had inner pain
Which
nothing could heal
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
What
you're gonna do
You mutter some words
Surrounded by smoke
You've
disappeared it seems
He shoots anyway
But it's not at you
You
wonder who it's at
You look in the sky
Hearing the shot
He
falls to the ground
Just a flash in his hand
To blow his little mind
The ending of a
man once alive
Abducted by Lucifer
Dressed to kill
And he's the
one who'll die
