Well she's counted every star And she's given all of them names But she can't tell them apart Because they all look the same And he's going out for a walk now Looking for a brand-new girl But she's just staring at the ceiling Waiting on the end of the world She's waiting on the end of the world Because everyone you love is going to die And Jenny loves the librarian But she's in over her head If she forgets where she came from She's going to wind up dead Our friend Jenny's going to wind up dead Because everyone you love is going to die

I'm going to learn how to love you But I find it's hard to understand You fell in love with a computer But I'm going to do the best I can My emotions run on ones and zeroes My heart's a hard-drive My soul is ram Lately I'm feeling almost human I'm just a pretty little robot trying to be a man I'm going to learn how to care for you I'm going to prove that this is real You and I were meant to be together Sometimes it's logical to feel My emotions run on ones and zeroes My heart's a hard-drive My soul is ram Lately I'm feeling almost human I'm just a pretty little robot trying to be a man My emotions run on ones and zeroes My heart's a hard-drive My soul is ram Lately I'm feeling almost human I'm just a pretty little robot trying to be a man I'm just a pretty little robot doing the best I can I'm just a pretty little robot trying to be a man

When I Look 02:36
When I look into your eyes You know I'm happy just to be alive Because you're the one for me And anyone can see That we're in love When I fell your hand in mine I know it's sweeter than the sweetest of wine Because I'm the one for you There's nothing nobody can do Because we're in love Everybody needs somebody Why can't your somebody be me? I am me and you are you So let's get together and make a we When I feel the way I feel And I know that this is something real That you're the one for me And anyone can see That we're in love When you say you love me back Just in spite of everything I lack That I'm the one for you There's nothing nobody can do Because we're in love Everybody needs somebody Why can't your somebody be me? I am me and you are you So let's get together and make a we Everybody needs somebody Why can't your somebody be me? I am me and you are you So let's get together and make a we

Dead Horse 04:00
This horse is dead, but we're going to beat it some more And we'll keep on fighting, even if we don't know what for And we're walking and talking in circles saying nothing new And we all took a vote to decide what's best for you Everyone's heard the news And we all have so much to lose So it's too big a risk To let you have the life that you choose This house is on fire, but we're going to let it burn down This child can't swim, but it's better just to let him drown And destruction breeds creation, but we don't know quite what that means And sure we're all human, but we play for different teams Look from our point of view Playing blind, but we knew You can do what you want If it's what we want you to do This horse is dead, but we're going to beat it some more And we'll keep on fighting, even if we don't know what for And we're walking and talking in circles saying nothing new And we all took a vote to decide what's best for you

Had that cast on for so long now And your bones are getting strong But they will never love you They will never love you At your best you're second-rate My older brother thinks you're great But they will never love you They will never love you Try your best to be a heel Working on your mass-appeal But they will never hate you Not the way that I do You're no good at being bad You're only known as Randy's dad And they will never love you They will never love you

My TV 03:24
My TV never lies to me Only shows me things that I want to see It speaks and I agree, so I know it's true It says that war is bad and peace is good We shouldn't fight unless we should And you're an angel or a devil if you bleed red white and blue But when you ask the right questions, the answers are always clear And if you want me to believe you, tell me what I want to hear I demand an apology I stand in solidarity Though I've never met whose cause I'm fighting for We're alike; we're so oppressed We both want our needs addressed We've got everything we wanted, and now we want some more And if you want to be enlightened, you know what you've got to do You've got to hate your parents, and hate your home town too My TV only lies to me Only shows me things that I want to see It says what's on my mind, but it isn't true Peace is bad and war is good We shouldn't fight unless we should And you're an angel or a devil, if you bleed red white and blue But when you ask the right questions, the answers are always clear And if you want me to believe you, tell me what I want to hear If you want me to believe you, tell me what I want to hear

Dusty Rhodes 02:29
Son of a plumber, American Dream You're what we wanted to be Bleached blond warrior, with star-spangled eyes You'll always be champion to me But it's hard times now that you're gone The stratosphere was reserved for you It's hard times now that you're gone And all the boys in the back are singing those hard time blues The Andersons, Blanchard, and Flair can't compete We all know the way that you feel Face among faces, man among men You made us believe it was real But it's hard times now that you're gone The stratosphere was reserved for you It's hard times now that you're gone And all the boys in the back are singing those hard time blues It's hard times now that you're gone The stratosphere was reserved for you It's hard times now that you're gone And all the boys in the back are singing those hard time blues

She said it (she said it, she said it) She told the truth But nobody listened, all they could hear was her youth She screamed, she shouted, she cried But it was too late And up until now, she never believed in fate Now she's packed up and moving away She's got no reason to stay Maybe next time they'll listen When she's got something to say He said it (he said it, he said it) He told a lie He thought he was honest, but he buried it deep down inside He mumbled, he whispered, he spoke His voice sounded true Always knew what to say, how to say it, and just what to do But his words fail him now And he's wiping the sweat from his brow And he knows he'll keep living even if he doesn't know how
9.
Well we've made a list of demands We simply want everything that you've got And we might not know who we are But when we look at you, we know who we're not We fight the good fight; we know what's at stake You've won the battle but we'll win the war And we'll keep this up for as long as it takes Just as long as it takes or until we get bored Because people are evil so we need some people To control the people who think they know best So we'll build some schools and we'll build some prisons We'll educate some and lock up the rest Well we demand blood, we demand justice We demand shelter and we demand fame We'll turn a blind eye to murder and torture Because of the letter that's next to your name Because people are evil so we need some people To control the people who think they know best So we'll build some schools and we'll build some prisons We'll educate some and lock up the rest Because people are evil so we need some people To control the people who think they know best So we'll build some schools and we'll build some prisons We'll educate some and lock up the rest
10.
Go to Sleep 04:04
What's the point of living if there's nobody watching? What's the point of screaming if you'll never be heard? You say that you love me but I need you to prove it Give me your cognition and I'll give you my word There's nothing left to fear Mom and Dad are here Rest your head, my dear And go back to sleep Your brother's watching out to make sure nobody hurts you There's nothing to fear if you do nothing wrong Moses had two tablets but he didn't have WiFi Everything's cool if you're playing along We're here and we're your friends Break before you bend These dreams don't have to end If you'll simply go back to sleep
11.
Three Cheers 03:49
Three cheers for me Three cheers for me I'm just as pious As I can be Hip hip hooray Hip hip hooray I'm here, I'm ready For judgment day I'm here, I'm waiting For judgment day Because everybody's got an altar And everybody prays And everyone just wants to get along So we'll try to keep it civil Even though that's now what pays They think we're evil-we think they're wrong They think we're evil, but we just think they're wrong I want to be I want to be Something empty: A vacancy I want to say What I've got to say Something louder And In the way Something Louder And in the way Because everybody's got an altar And everybody prays And everyone just wants to get along So we'll try to keep it civil Even though that's now what pays They think we're evil-we think they're wrong They think we're evil, but we just think they're wrong
