American Woman
by Lenny Kravitz

American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don't come hangin' around my door
I don't wanna see your face no more
I got more important things to do
Than spend my time growin' old with you

Now woman, stay away, American woman, listen what I say

American woman, get away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don't come knockin' around my door
I don't wanna see your shadow no more

Coloured lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Now woman, get away
American woman, listen what I say-ay

American Woman, said get away
American Woman, listen what I say
Don't come a hangin' around my door
Don't wanna see your face no more
I don't need your war machines
I don't need your ghetto scenes

Coloured lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Now woman, get away
American woman, listen what I say-ay

American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be
I gotta go, I gotta get away
Baby, I gotta go, I am dying

I'm gonna leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman
Bye-bye 
Bye-bye 
Bye-bye 
Bye-bye 

(American woman) You're no good for me
And I'm no good for you
(American woman) I'll look you right in the eye
And tell you what I'm gonna do
You know I'm gonna leave, you know I'm gonna go
You know I'm gonna leave, I'm gonna leave you woman
Goodbye American Woman

Breathe (TLA Mix)  
by Moist

save 
save me from this 
wandered around the town 
all the thousand things 
i might miss 
and you 
think well suffer much 
think well close our eyes 
just to see the light 
pass us by 
with tomorrow coming 

hope that i don't 
let you down again 
said i'm so glad to be here 
does it mean a thing 
if only i could breathe what you breathe 
if only i could see what you see 

sit 
we'll take our time 
watching the flowers grow 
all friends we've known say 
goodbye 
and you 
did you suffer much 
did you close your eyes 
just to see the night 
rush on by 
gathered all around you 

hope that we dont 
let you down again 
i said i'm so glad to be here 
does it mean a thing 
if only i could breathe what you breathe 
if only i could see what you see 

said i'm so glad to be here 
does it mean a thing 
said i'm so glad to be here 
does it mean a thing 
said i'm so glad to be here 
does it mean anything

if only i could breathe what you breathe 
if only i could see what you see 
if only i could just believe a thing

Someday
by Sugar Ray

Someday
when my life has passed me by
I lay around and wonder why you were always there for me
one way
in the eyes of a passerby
I look around for another try and fade away
just close your eyes and I'll take you there
this place is warm without a care
we'll take a swim in the deep blue sea
I go to leave and you reach for me
some say
better things will come our way
no matter what they try to say
you were always there for me
some way
when the sun begins to shine I hear a song from another time and fade away
and fade away
just close your eyes and I'll take you there
this place is warm, without a care
we'll take a swim in the deep blue sea
I go to leave and you reach for me
someone said you tried to long
someone said we got it all
someone said we tried to long
is there a place where I belong
so far, so long
so far away
so far, so wrong
so far away
someday
when my life has passed me by
I lay around and wonder why you were always there for me
one way 
in the eyes of a passerby
I look around for another try and fade away 
and fade away

Hello Time Bomb
by Matthew Good Band
 
I found me a reason 
So check me tomorrow 
We'll see if I'm leaking 
Push and push till it hurts 
My devil's on roller skates 
Down at the roller rink 
Picking up chicks for me 
Ones that push and push till it hurts 
Dirty enough I got me a love and it's so bad 
Life's for the living 
So check me tomorrow 
We'll see if I'm kidding 
Pull and pull till it hurts 
Did it on Ritalin 
I got me some good grades 
Now I work me the night shift 
Where I pull and pull till it hurts 
Dirty enough I got me a love and it's so bad 
Hello time bomb I'm ready to go off 
If life's for the livid 
Check me tomorrow 
We'll see if I'm emperor 
My devil's on sugar smacks 
Down at the radio shack 
We're turning shit into solid gold 
Solid gold...

What's My Age Again?
by Blink 182

I took her out, it was a Friday night
I wore cologne to get the feeling right
We started makin' out and she took off my pants
But then, I turned on the TV

And that's about the time she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And are still more amused by TV shows
What the hell is ADD, my friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

Then later on, on the drive home
I called her mom from a pay phone
I said I was the cops and your husband's in jail
This state looks down on sodomy

And that's about the time that bitch hung up on me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And are still more amused by prank phone calls
What the hell is caller ID, my friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

And that's about the time she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And you still act like you're in freshman year
What the hell is wrong with me, my friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?

That's about the time that she broke up with me (what's my age again?)
No one should take themselves so seriously
With many years ahead to fall in line
Why would you wish that on me, I'll never wanna act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

What's my age again...

Slide
by Goo Goo Dolls

Could you whisper in my ear the things you wanna feel?
I'll give you anything to feel it coming
Do you wake up on your own and wonder where you are?
You live with all your faults

I wanna wake up where you are
I won't say anything at all
So why don't you slide
Yeah, we're gonna let it slide

Don't you love the life you killed?  The priest is on the phone
Your father hit the wall, your ma disowned you
Don't suppose I'll ever know what it means to be a man
Something I can't change, I'll live around it

I wanna wake up where you are
I won't say anything at all
So why don't you slide

And I'll do anything you ever dreamed to be complete
Little pieces of the nothing that fall
Oh, May, put your arms around me
What you feel is what you are and what you are is beautiful
Oh, May, do you wanna get married or run away?
(repeat)

I wanna wake up where you are
I'll do anything you ever dreamed to be complete
Little pieces of the nothing that fall

Praise You
by Fatboy Slim

Praise you
We've come a long long way together,
Through the hard times and the good,
I have to celebrate you baby,
I have to praise you like I should.

Bawitdaba
by Kid Rock

Bawitdaba da bang a dang diggy diggy diggy said the boogie said up jump the boogie 
My name is Kiiid... Kid Rock 
Bawitdaba da bang a dang diggy diggy diggy said the boogie said up jump the boogie (x4)
And this is for the questions that don't have any answers 
The midnight glancers and the topless dancers 
The gang of freaks, cars packed with speakers 
The Gs with the forties and the chicks with beepers 
The Northern Lights and the Southern Comfort 
And it don't even matter if your veins are punctured 
All the crackheads, the critics, the cynics 
And all my heroes in the methadone clinic 
All you bastards at the IRS 
For the crooked cops and the cluttered desks 
For the shots of jack and the caps of meth 
Half pints of love and the fifths of stress 
For the hookers all trickin out in Hollywood 
And for the hoods of the world misunderstood 
I said it’s all good and it's all in fun 
Now get in the pit and try to love someone! 
Bawitdaba da bang a dang diggy diggy diggy said the boogie said up jump the boogie 
For the time bombs tickin and the heads that hang 
All the gangs gettin money and the heads that bang bang 
Wild mustangs and porno flicks 
All my homies in the county in cell block six 
The grits when there ain’t enough eggs to cook 
And for DB Cooper and money he took 
You can look for answers but that ain't fun 
Now get in the pit and try to love someone! 
Bawitdaba da bang a dang diggy diggy diggy said the boogie said up jump the boogie 
For the love, and for the hate 
And for the peace 
Waaar!!

All Star
by Smashmouth

Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead

Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb

So much to do so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow

Hey now you're an All Star get your game on, go play
Hey now you're a Rock Star get the show on get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold

It's a cool place and they say it gets colder
You're bundled up now but wait 'til you get older
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture

The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The waters getting warm so you might as well swim
My world's on fire how about yours
That's the way I like it and I never get bored

Hey now you're an All Star get your game on, go play
Hey now you're a Rock Star get the show on get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold

Hey now you're an All Star get your game on, go play
Hey now you're a Rock Star get the show on get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold

Somebody once asked could you spare some change for gas
I need to get myself away from this place
I said yep what a concept
I could use a little fuel myself
And we could all use a little change
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow

Hey now you're an All Star get your game on, go play
Hey now you're a Rock Star get the show on get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold

Heaven Coming Down
by The Tea Party 

With nothing to do
you'd waste away
obscure in exile
they've witnessed the times
you've gone astray
whose fault?
now you're thinking...
ah,there's nothing to prove
a message from the crowd to the shore...

And it feels now
just like heaven's coming down

So strange are the ways,
they all have changed
still life it stays the same
a break from the past
could make it last
oh, maybe just a little longer
now there's nothing to prove
a message from the crowd to the shore...

And it feel now
just like heaven coming down
your soul, shakes free
as its conscience hits the ground

You surrender
love under will
rest assured you're adored, oh.

And it feels now
just like heaven's coming down
your soul, shakes free
as its conscience hits the ground
these times,this fate,
takes a path you didn't choose
stay strong, keep faith
there's a change that's
coming through
hold on, my love
hold on, my love
hold on, my love
Feels like heaven's coming down.

Let Forever Be
by The Chemical Brothers

And how does it feel like to wake up in the sun?
And how does it feel like to shine on everyone?
How does it feel like to let fovever be
How does it feel like to spend a little lifetime sitting in the gutter
Scream of sympathy 

How does it feel like to sailing on the breeze. 
And how does it feel like to spend a little lifetime sitting in the gutter
Scream of sympathy 

How does it feel like to make it happening
And how does it feel like to breed with everything
And how does it feel like to let forever be
How does it feel like to spend a little lifetime sitting in the gutter
Scream of sympathy

How does it feel like to be a crystal fiend
How does it feel like to spend a little lifetime sitting in the gutter
Scream of sympathy

Blue Monday
by Orgy

How does it feel to treat me like you do 
when you've laid your hands upon me 
and told me who you are 

I thought I was mistaken 
I thought I heard your words 
tell me, how do I feel 
tell me now, how do I feel 
 
How does it feel, how should I feel 
tell me how does it feel, 
to treat me like you do 
 
Those who came before me 
lived through their vocations 
from the past until completion 
they'll turn away no more 
 
And I still find it so hard 
to say what I need to say 
but I'm quite sure that you'll tell me 
just how I should feel today 

I see a ship in the harbor 
I can and shall obey 
but if it wasn't for your misfortune 
I'd be a heavenly person today 
 
And I thought I was mistaken 
and I thought I heard you speak 
tell me how do I feel 
tell me now, how should I feel 

Now I stand here waiting... 

I thought I told you to leave me 
while I walked down to the beach 

Tell me how does it feel 
when your heart grows cold 
how does it feel, how should I feel 
tell me how does it feel, 
to treat me like you do

Scar Tissue
by The Red Hot Chili Peppers

Scar tissue that I wish you saw 
Sarcastic mister know it all 
Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you ’cause 
With the birds I’ll share 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view 
Push me up against the wall 
Young Kentucky girl in a push-up bra 
Fallin’ all over myself 
To lick your heart and taste your health ’cause 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view... 

Blood loss in a bathroom stall 
Southern girl with a scarlet drawl 
Wave good-bye to ma and pa ’cause 
With the birds I’ll share 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view 

Soft spoken with a broken jaw 
Step outside but not to brawl 
Autumn’s sweet we call it fall 
I’ll make it to the moon if I have to crawl and 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view... 

Scar tissue that I wish you saw 
Sarcastic mister know it all 
Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you ’cause 
With the birds I’ll share 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view...

Summertime In The Void
by I Mother Earth

I felt the break and the roll of the nexus 
On a day when the whole world elected
To sell us out
These are the hands that grab my attention 
When all is what I'm giving
They slow me down
Slower than southern muddy rivers

When you think there's salvation
When you don't want to leave
Your room with eyes open, undreaming
When it's summertime in the void

When it's summertime in the void
The sun is upside down
And facing the other way until days end
With a schizophrenic everjoy
And with a sense of doubt
You wait automatic and afraid

On ran the train through my solar plexus 
On the day I made good connection
With love out loud, home, hate and sound 
And who wrote the words to my death sentence 
When life is what I'm living
And leaving now
While I trip 'till time is over

When it's summertime in the void
And the stars yell out your name
All together and insane
'Cause they're broken words they are a noise 
There's no answer for
You wait automatic and afraid

Anthem for the Year 2000
by Silverchair

We are the youth, we'll take your fascism away, 
We are the youth, apologize for another day. 
We are the youth, and politicians are so sure, 
We are the youth, and we are knocking on this door. 
Never knew we were living in a world 
with a mind that could be so sure, 
Never knew we were living in a world 
with a mind that could be so small. 
Never knew we were living in a world 
And the world is an open court, 
Maybe we don't wanna live in a world 
where our innocence is so sure. 
We'll make it up to you in the year 2000 with 
Never knew we were living in a world

And the world was an open court, 
Maybe we don't wanna live in a world 
where our innocence is so sure. 
We'll make it up to you in the year 2000, 
Build it up with you in the year 2000, 
Make it up to you in the year 2000,

{spoken}: 
Never knew we were living in a world 
With a world that could be so sure, 
Never knew we were living in a world 
with a mind that could be so small. 
Never knew we were living in a world 
where the world is an open court, 
Maybe we don't wanna live in a world 
World even cares at all 
We'll make it up to you in the year 2000, 
Build it up for you in the year 2000, 
Make it hard for you in the year 2000, 
Build it up for you in the year 2000, 
Make it hard for you in the year 2000, 
Build it up with you in the year 2000 with you.

Mistake
by Serial Joe

Do you know how to find what you’re lookin’ for 
Stuck in a maze of promises, don’t know what’s real or not 
Promise you anything, I’ll never lie 
Do you even know what it is you want 
So how can I even try 

It’s all a mistake 
How long will it take 
When the dreams are all gone 
How long till you wake 

Don’t know how it came to this 
Just try n’ figure out what to do 
How can he give you what you need 
You think that I can not 
In a state of mind games, it feels like a checkmate 
None of us will win 
And I don’t think I can wait 

How long till you wake

You Don't Know What It's Like
by Econoline Crush

Did you give up?
Did get easier?
Did all those things you wanted come together in the end?

(Oh yeah)

Was I the one?
Was I even there?
Did you ever really notice how I never really cared?

(Oh yeah)

She smiled and looked at me and said....

You don't know what it's like
(What it's like)
(What it's like)
You don't know what it's like
(What it's like)
(What it's like)
I feel like nothing at all
You don't know what it's like
(What it's like)
(What it's like)

Did you forget?
Did you believe in it?
Did all those things I promised come out empty in the end?

(Oh yeah)

And the regrets...
And the dreams you missed...
Comfort comes with patience, serenity yeah yeah.

She smiled and looked at me and said.....

You don't know what it's like
(What it's like)
(What it's like)
You don't know what it's like

You don't know what it's like
(What it's like)
(What it's like)

I feel insignificant...
I feel nothing at all
I feel insignificant...

Did you give up
Did it get easier
Every little word that lingers slipped and fell.

You don't know what it's like
(What it's like)
(What it's like)
You don't know what it's like
(What it's like)
(What it's like)
I feel like nothing at all
You don't know what it's like
(What it's like)
(What it's like)

You don't know what it's like... what it's like
You don't know what it's like... what it's like
I feel like nothing at all
I feel like nothing at all
I feel like nothing cause you don't know what it's like...
