Punching things Fucked up wrist Your fucked up kiss Your fucked vision The way the world Should be had Made, gathered, cultivated Two separate pages And three different books She's giving me dirty looks Guilty and stupid I hand her a beer And we pretend like nothing ever happened We pretend like nothing ever happened We pretend like nothing ever happened Later it's as though The fury pours out of ears Soaks onto my shirt And douses my torso aflame And only when I'm finally under Completely sedated, I realize The stupidity of it all So I call you I call the other you So I call you I call the other you And I cry and I yell I cry and I yell I cry and I yell And I laugh and I laugh and I laugh And I laugh and I laugh and I laugh Ha, ha, ha

Telephone 02:33
The days are becoming years Facing all my fears Yet hope just disappears Alone and afraid No matter what's at stake Alone and afraid, No matter what's at stake Seeking something always known I call you on the telephone Seeking something always known I call you on the telephone You never answer, never answer Nothing changes, nothing changes It never changes, never changes It never changes, never changes Seeing something always known I call you on the telephone Seeking something always known I call you on the telephone You never answer, never answer Nothing changes, nothing changes It never changes, never changes It never changes, never changes

Spent 02:50
He's name dropping, Hollywood Something never understood Prove yourself to be a man Makes no difference who I am Laughing at a stranger's jokes Let them know you're all a hoax Talking with the volume loud Makes no sense, you have no doubts All the same, all the rest All the same, all the rest All the same, all the rest All the same, all the rest All the same like all the rest Wait til all your luck is spent All the same like all the rest Wait til all your luck it spent Spent, spent, spent

Bad Attitude 01:57
She walks around with her attitude She walks around with her fancy shoes She walks around with her attitude She walks around with her fancy shoes With her face held high Make you want to die With her face held high Make you want to die I ain't got no feeling, feeling I ain't got no feeling, feeling I ain't got no feeling, feeling I ain't got no feeling, feeling, feeling With her face held high Make you want to die With her face held high Make you want to die I ain't got no feeling, feeling I ain't got no feeling, feeling I ain't got no feeling, feeling I ain't got no feeling, feeling, feeling
