Have another drink and talk more shit I’ll still want ya back And I’ve got friends (Or something like that) To do this for me Ya know I don’t want you back I just wanna treat you bad I’m such a fool in fact I want you now more than ever Well these bodies are real but they’re not who we are While you sleep I’m going through your things While you're sleepin’ around Ya know I don’t want you back I just wanna make you laugh Until you have a heart attack I want you now more than ever I’ll fake my fucked up smile If you show some skin I’ll make you smile If I don’t have to mean a thing Oh yeah, just ask my friends My hands are red I know it’s all my fault But I’m blamin’ you instead

When you said ‘it feels too good’ It made my stomach turn But now I’m better at finding the holes in my head And we both know You’re no better than me You’re just here to watch me sweat So I prayed it’d be you In that hospital bed But I was just talkin’ to myself So drink up, baby I ain’t got no friends Not till summer Come back You know I don’t want your body Back in my bedroom And if california calls Tell them I ain’t ever comin’ back Drink up, baby I know we ain’t friends ’cause you spin my head right ’round And around and around and around Fuck this waiting room Hollow walls and words and skin I see right through And I see you waitin’ To see if I’ll make my move But we both know I’m done dancin’ for you While yer choked out in those beds I can applaud all I want But it won’t bring you back From the places that you’ve been And I don’t want you now anyway Your body language tells me more Than the words you slur Through that slutty hole in your head Like it all makes sense And you’re not sleeping with the enemy Or the devil that I know Just a cowardly two-faced fuck Who should’ve picked up the phone

Do you ever feel like a monster? Your smile’s just been wearing thin Why won’t anyone call a doctor When you talk about breakin’ up my spine? I don’t want this: any I don’t want this anymore (But I guess that’s what friends are for) I don’t need this: any Please don’t talk at me no more Now that we’re back in town Them baby blues ain’t enough To make me come around She talked until my fists Bent back and grew But I’ll be keepin’ my hands off of you I’m a shallow man With a spinning head But I’m sincere in The things that I say If I had ever thought I was a doctors son It was a patients words I believed But you know what they say And I know what you say But now you all just sound the same If you were saying those things to only me.. Well, it doesn’t matter much now Now that we’re back in town Looks like I’ve got a couple Funerals to attend Now that I’ve seen this show of hands I know what’s true So I’ll be keeping my hands off of you (So, put ‘em up) Put ‘em up but keep your trap shut I’m sure your lungs must be tired Of the back and forth Your true colors gotten muddied up I think you’re aiming At breaking my heart But you know what they say About the ones you love Yeah, those scars they get carved both ways I know we both know This part was your fault But you say that you’re tired of taking the blame It’s too far to fall If I jump down your throat I won’t get tangled up You ain’t got no guts To tangle me up You know, I think the boys Yeah, they’ll come back around I bet the wolves will be back around So, here come the boys right now And they walk soft but their mouths Still make those petty sounds And they can talk until Our faces all turn blue I’ll still be keepin’ my hands off of you They won’t fix you if I know the truth So I’ll be keepin’ off of you

Oh what big plans you’ve got All the better to bring me down You’ve got to be The sorriest bunch of wolves I think I’ve ever seen ‘Cause you always bare your teeth Just when I’m not around You’re so fucking brave It’s weird, just when I’m not around We know that we’re not the same But they’ll dance for your two-faced friends Till mine are better men And they’ll buy into all of your shit Till they have nothing left “We’ll sink our teeth in When you’re not lookin’ And we’ll just pretend That you don’t have a face” You must not know a thing About love or loyalty So I’ll just crack my smile And laugh while you circle me Oh yeah, so bare your teeth ‘Cause you ain’t scarin’ me I wanna know if your cowardice Can make me bleed ‘Cause your talk is less than cheap I’ve begun to entertain A bunch of silly little ways To dig my friend a shallow, early grave But it’s not worth the work it’d take

Sock Hop 02:03
She shakes her body For all of these Pussies pretending they’re wolves ‘Don’t you want more of me?’ She screams And the boys all cheered And they grabbed and begged To watch her body bend You fill your mouth with empty talk But all those things you say They don’t matter anyway No, we’ll keep on movin’ anyway And you fuck me up with your empty talk But all that shit you say It don’t matter anyway While they’re creepin’ up And I’ll be keepin’ my hands to myself While you’re still running your mouth off And all you want is just to dance A little more But I won’t keep it up

la da doctor 03:07
I can taste the lies In all these eager bodies My broken open mind Has been bitterly biting at you For years now But now I know I was right I just wish that I’d tried To find the words That could make this much worse Just to dig these scars in deeper ‘Cause you were supposed to be More goddamn pretty Let the sewing patterns bleed Until you’re more pretty I got a patient smile Like it could use attention I know it’s hard to love But I’ve got a tongue that can twist To any taste that you’ve got But I think I’d rather not I must seem selfish as fuck ‘Cause this suspicions Been breakin’ my hands Just to keep them from fixin’ you up Your eyes still got their lies to sell I’ve got a needle and thread But baby, yer not worth my time I know what this table is really for Don’t move till your mouth is reattached But you’re beautiful like that Just not a pretty sight Baby, you could use a doctor
