Brightening Day

My best friends are gone Far and way beyond And they left me here with no one by my side How can I get by With no one to dry And pick me back up when I fall down? My support has left Me, and I'm bereft Of the things I need to help me make it all through Now I cannot do With no cheering crew They do make me feel like I don't suck
It was a brightening day (instrumental) It was a brightening day
My posse has split They don't give a spit About anybody else on earth but themselves So we'll burn in hell And think that it's swell Just as long as we get our own rooms So we'll burn in hell And think that it's swell Just as long as we get our own rooms

Your Room

You're coming at me worlds away There's nothing that I can say And all of these games you play Will lead me/you to your room (repeat)

I Just Threw Out the Love of My Dreams

I'm so tall can't get over me I'm so low can't get under me I must be all these things For I just threw out the love of my dreams He's in my eyes He is in my ears He's in my blood He is in my tears I breathe love And see him everyday Even though my love is a world away Oh, he's got me wondering My righteousness is crumbling
Never before have I felt this way I know what is right, but want for him to stay I must be made of steel For I just threw out the love of my dreams He's in my eyes He is in my ears He's in my blood He is in my tears I breathe love And I see him everyday Even though my love is a world away Oh, he's got me wondering My righteousness is crumbling
Oh, he's got me wondering My righteousness is crumbling And I see him everyday Even though my love's a world away He's in my eyes He is in my ears He's in my blood He is in my tears I must be made of steel For I just threw out the love of my dreams

Devotion

Suddenly our shortcomings Don't seem to matter that much Your IQ is 20 points low And I'm no six foot hot look all-American man Sad to say I pushed you away Waiting for "Mrs. Right"
Chorus: You never gave up devotion Waiting for me You'll always be my girlfriend I too am waiting for you I'll always be your friend
I commend your stubborness Without it we'd never got this far I am done with perfection Chasing her leaves me with nothing but pain Unlike you she isn't true She's got her own concerns (chorus) (instrumental) (chorus)

Mykel and Carli

Back at Wilson High I had two best friends They lived down the block Where Eagle Court bends One she cared for my bones Fed me ice cream cones One she cared for my happiness Wouldn't leave me alone
Back at Wilson High Said I had these two best friends Til the school bus came And took my friends away Now I'm left alone at home To sit and think all day Hear you me Mykel Hear you me Carli
They gave me a hat The hat was awful rad Wore it everyday Made my teacher mad She tore it off my head Now my head's well-read My head gets cold at night sometimes But I can't be mislead
Hear you me Mykel Hear you me Carli She tore it off my head Now my head's well-read My head gets cold at night sometimes But I can't be mislead
Back at Wilson High I had two best friends They lived down the block Where Eagle Court bends Til the school bus came And took my friends away Now I'm left alone at home To sit and think all day
Hear you me Mykel Hear you me Carli Oh oh no, Mykel Oh oh no, Carli

Christmas Celebration

Christmas celebration And all around the nation Won't you stay with me tonight Cause I'm running out of fight And the pageantry is such a bore
Carolers are singing Registers ka-chinging And the presents are in place But I'd rather eat some mace Cause the eggnog always makes me sick
You know how the story goes You've seen it all before That man is so obese that he can't get out the door
Christmas stupefaction I'm begging for some action And the ringing in my ears Is the sound of Christmas cheer Come to knock me screaming overboard
You know how the story goes You've seen it all before That man is so obese that he can't get out the door (instrumental)
You know how the story goes You've seen it all before That man is so obese that he can't get out the door
Christmas celebration And all around the nation Won't you stay with me tonight Cause I'm running out of fight And the pageantry is such a bore The pageantry is such a bore The pageantry is such a bore The pageantry is such a bore The pageantry is such a bore Yeah

The Christmas Song ["The Green Album" - Japanese version; 2001]

You told me you would be here by my side Warming my heart on this cold winter's night Here I sit waiting beside the tree all by myself You told me you would move heaven and earth Cheering my spirits with laughter and mirth Here I sit waiting beside the tree all by myself (by myself)
How could you ever know how much I care? (how much I care) Could you ever know that out somewhere (that out somewhere) There's a boy who really hurts? (really hurts) Since I found you I found a girl I found a thorn I found a queen Now I am warm (Repeat)
You told me you would move heaven and earth Cheering my spirits with laughter and mirth Here I sit waiting beside the tree all by myself (by myself) Here I sit waiting beside the tree all by myself

Christmas Song [Kevin & Bean's The Real Slim Santa (KROQ); 2000]

You told me you would be here by my side Warming my heart on this cold winter's night Here I sit waiting beside the tree all by myself You told me you would bring presents and treats Cheering my spirits with homemade sweet meats Here I sit waiting beside the tree all by myself
How could you ever know how much I care? Could you ever know that out somewhere, There's a boy who really hurts? Since I found you I found a girl I found a thorn I found a queen Now I am warm (Repeat)
You told me you would bring presents and treats Cheering my spirits with homemade sweet meats Here I sit waiting beside the tree all by myself Here I sit waiting beside the tree all by myself
