Calling Out
The disdain and betrayal in your eyes
Reveals that they’ve surrounded you with their lies
I know that they’ve no need for the truth
That once you loved me and I loved you...
Calling out to you to hold on
Calling out to you to hold on
Wait until the dawn, I will come
Wait until the dawn, I will come
Don’t let go, I will run
Turn away in new-feigned disgust
Have you forgotten what you told me in trust?
Somehow you let others make up your mind
I know that’s safer, but surely in time?
Calling out to you to hold on
Calling out to you to hold on
Wait until the dawn, I will come
Wait until the dawn, I will come
I hope that someday that attitude
Falls away like a mask and reveals you
Don’t let them take you completely down
In time you’ll be the one wearing the crown
Calling out to you to hold on
Calling out to you to hold on
Wait until the dawn, I will come
Wait until the dawn, I will come
Don’t let go, I will run
The disdain and betrayal in your eyes
Reveals that they’ve surrounded you with their lies
Don’t let go, I will run
And that they’ve no need for the truth
That once you loved me and I loved you

Feel a Man’s Alibi
Waiting for you to pound on my door
You’re too busy causing trouble
All again across the neighborhood
And I feel totally annoyed and ignored
You’re late again for our date
I’ve had enough now I’m not waiting no more
I’m going down to Club Underground
Gonna dance right up to an emo boy
Gonna meet me a gorgeous Part Time Punk
Gonna tell him my name is Pussy Galore!
If you ever turn up at my place
I’ll kindly let you know “This is not for me”
Then I will slam the door fast on your face
Don’t stand too close, my dog is up for the chase
I’m going down to Laguna shore
Gonna put my cutest bikini on
Gonna ride the big waves on my body board
Gonna catch myself a hot surfer boy
Now it’s just past 10 o’clock
And you decide to never show up
I feel so dumb I didn’t get up and walk
My pining for you has got to stop
I’m now driving to Hollywood
With my girls in back, we’re gonna hit the clubs
Ready for martini’s, we choose a burlesque
Hot in our booth,
you come out dancing in
... BREASTS
What the hell is this?
You stood me up because you drag strip?
You couldn’t even call me?
I waited up all night in my 5-inch heels
… and you’re wearing 7!
Am I not woman enough for you?
Are you fucking kidding me?

Wait for the Song, Friends
I’ll miss Sunday brunch
... the special dates we had
All the good advice
... shared over vegan rice
With me gone now…
Seen a lot, stayed fond
Of you and grew fond of them
Somehow now a strange lesson
The game has become too much
for the both of us…
To you they have won
I’ll miss Sunday brunch
... the special dates we had
All the good advice
... shared over vegan rice
With me gone now…
You’ve realized that, it’s become
a turf war
Holding secrets from you no more
You’re friends became so desperate
Fantasies running in their heads
Information they thought I had
Expecting I’d give every weekend
I’ll miss Sunday brunch
... the special dates we had
All the good advice
... shared over vegan rice
With me gone now…
Some people move on
Some grow old together
Never imagined you gone
The game has become too much
And to you they have won
And now you have gone…
And now you have gone…
And now you have gone…

Daybreak
Found three photos of her
under our bed last night
do I say anything
to you or just smile
… as you come
Home
I mean it
I love you…
I’ll go with you
come with me
leave your dreams…
If you promise
I’ll care for you
don’t worry…
be my baby
tie yourself to me
come with me…
Found a note on your desk
wasn’t your mum or sister
don’t want to be that paranoid
girlfriend on tv
late at night
Home
I mean it
I love you…
I’ll go with you
come with me
leave your dreams…
Found two shot glasses
on our countertop
you know I don’t drink
whiskey with my wine
… late at night
Home
I mean it
I love you…
I’ll go with you
come with me
leave your dreams…
Home
I mean it
I love you…
I’ll go with you
come with me

Ice Breaker - Meeooww
Watch out here I come
Never going back where I started from
All those men were a sham
How ‘bout you take my hand?
Don’t listen to the drama
I make myself out to be
I’m just seein’ if you can
Handle me
But if you don’t think you can handle me
Go ahead
Walk out now
There’s the exit door you see
Watch out here I come
Never going back where I started from
Caught you lookin’ my way
Telling you to go but I wish you’d stay
Yeah, sometimes I mean it
Like when I tell the creeps to scram
I’m not gonna be a fetish
As I expect you to be a Man
But if you don’t think you can handle me
Go ahead
Try to run
The door is locked… I have the key
Watch out here I am
No one thought I’d make it but here I stand
The former four-eyed geek
She’s the beauty queen of all the scene
There’s no use resisting
My endless feminine charm
The best advice I can give you
Is to relax those handcuffed arms
If you still don’t think you can handle me
Go ahead and try to run
The cuffs are locked
… And I have the key
