MIDDLE CLASS 3:44
Middle Class, Middle Class, Middle Class -Life used to be a gas
Middle Class, Middle Class, Middle Class -I'm in debt to my ass
I owe so much
money
Can barely pay the rent
Even with my overtime
Too many bills to make a dent
Middle Class,
Middle Class, Middle Class - Thought my savings last
Middle Class, Middle Class, Middle Class -I'm in debt to my ass
Ever since
I was downsized, can't get-a-new job; I'm too old
Chinese prisoners do it cheaper
My company threw me out in the cold
Never thought
I'd be on food stamps
But my kids have got to eat
I sold everything of value
I give up I'm in retreat
Cause I'm Middle Class, Middle Class, Middle Class
A normal life is past
Middle Class, Middle Class, Middle Class
I'm in debt to my ass
When I was young
the world was my oyster
Maybe I'd be president one day.
Now I live like in a cloister
Everyday I pray and pay
Middle Class!
It's a thing of the past.
Middle Class- breathe my oven's gas.

2. BOSSMAN
6:10
Yes, boss-
whatever you say; I'll do it, as long as you pay.
No, no - I didn't say nay; Only please get out of my way.
You're the boss ;and that's the cost; Of living in the material world.
How did I get cursed with you? You put me in a hole.
Big boss man;
It's us and them.
They do what they want.
They're so useless when it comes to real work
They don't know what's going on.
You are such
a power-crazy bad-ass troll.
You think your stuff don't smell, no, no, no.
Promoting yourself is your game.
I'm amazed at the things you say
I'm not your toy I don't play
All my confidence you betrayed.
Big boss man;
It's us and them.
They do what they want.
They're so useless when it comes to real work
They don't know what's going on.
This isn't the
job I thought I'd be doing when I was young
I wanted to be a cowboy or a cop and just shoot a gun.
Now I'm working hard for someone who will never understand
Performing some meaningless work; I don't give a damn.
Big boss man;
It's us and them.
They do what they want.
They're so useless when it comes to real work
They don't know what's going on.
I just want
to make a living; Work is not my life.
I've got better things outside of here; My kids and my wife
I'm only here 8 hours a day; You don't own me.
Yes, boss- whatever you say; Please just let me be.
Big boss man;
It's us and them.
They do what they want.
They're so useless when it comes to real work
They don't know what's going on.

CHARITIES 3:51
How ya doin?
We're so worthy. Give us your money please.
We're non-profit, tax-deductible. You're as sweet as honey bees.
Charity! Charity!
Charity begins at home
Charity! Charity! Don't cry if you have a bone.
My wife and
I used to give to every street corner tin can.
We'd payroll deduct, contribute by phone;
but debt has fallen over me.
I traded my green bills for the owing kind; gave up luxury.
I lost my job can't get no work, no one's hiring me.
Charity! Charity!
Charity begins at home
Charity! Charity! Don't cry if you have a bone.
What ever happened
to the American Dream,
the promise of a brighter future?
A job that would pay the bills;
enjoy a Friday night stupor.
I'd live in a house near my friends,
drivin a brand new car.
Save for kid's college and retirement;
hang out at the neighborhood bar.
Charity! Charity!
Charity begins at home
Charity! Charity! Don't cry if you have a bone.
My solvency
has now gone; It's time to be movin' on.

4. BABE 3:38
Walk a little slower my honey
Don't you know you drive me wild.
Sweeter love you can't buy for money
Everything you do with style.
I just love - the way you shake that thing.
I lose my mind when you do what you do.
When I see you my heart will sing.
I'll do whatever you want me to.
Let me take
you away from this whole scene.
I'll make you smile, if you give me a chance.
The sky is blue and the grass is green.
When we kiss our tongues will dance.
Don't you know I need you oh so bad.
I hope you feel that way about me too.
Just the scent of you drives me mad
I don't know what I'm going to do.
When you undress
for me at night-
You really drive me insane.
I just can't put up a fight -My testosterone is to blame.
Twenty eight years since we married
Don't you know you still turn me on.
Seems like yesterday I carried
You across my threshold.
We worked hard to raise two kids
I can't believe how fast they've grown.
We kept our romance. I'm glad we did.
Now it's back to us alone.

5. GET
YOUR OWN PHONE 4:19
Who's that calling
on my phone; It's not for me. Leave me alone
Trying to watch TV or munching a snack; I want quiet-not a verbal attack.
You know, I really do love you; But constant calls are making me blue.
Tell your friends not to call; Go and meet them at the mall.
[Come on and
leave me alone; I don't want to answer the phone
I don't want to answer the phone, I don't want to answer, answer the
phone
Ring, ring, ring-when I try to record;
Ring, ring, ring- when I want to make love.
Ring, ring, ring-when I watch a movie;
Ring, ring, ring- what do they want from me?]
You've got to
get your own phone; before my ears turn deaf like a stone
Don't want to hear another ring; This is my castle - not your plaything
I want to listen to no sound at all, When I come home after nightfall
No one knocking at my door. No strangers sleeping on my floor
[Come on and
leave me alone; I don't want to answer the phone
I don't want to answer the phone, I don't want to answer, answer the
phone
Ring, ring, ring-when I try to record;
Ring, ring, ring- when I want to make love.
Ring, ring, ring-when I watch a movie;
Ring, ring, ring- what do they want from me?]
Is that the
phone again?; Who's that calling? It's not my friend
It's not for me - that I Know; Just please leave, please just go.
Someone selling an insurance plan; Or Is it the magazine man?
What do they want from me? Got no money, Ain't it a pity?
[Come on and
leave me alone; I don't want to answer the phone
I don't want to answer the phone, I don't want to answer, answer the
phone
Ring, ring, ring-when I try to record;
Ring, ring, ring- when I want to make love.
Ring, ring, ring-when I watch a movie;
Ring, ring, ring- what do they want from me?]

6. BRO 3:36
I 'm so proud
to call you brother.
We'd be friends anyway.
I wouldn't want another. You're so happy and gay.
We have the very same thoughts at the very same time
We don't need to speak
cause we know each other's mind.
I'm so glad
you are my brother-O' Brother
You know all about me - the good and the bad
You're always there for me
When I need a helping hand
I know I can count on you
Until the very end
we'll always have each other.
Yes, you are my best friend.
We laugh about
those strange times
That weren't so funny then.
When you acted the Kaiser
but our wounds have long since mend.
We've learned so much
From mistakes along the way
We've come into our own
Enjoying life each day.
We've watched
our children grow
Learning from them as well
It wasn't always very easy
Sometimes it hurt like hell
I'll always treasure
those very special times
But of all the brothers in the world
I'm so lucky you are mine.
But of all the brothers in the world
I'm so happy you are mine.

THE BLACK SHEEP 3:08
Nobody is perfect.
Some of us live a fantasy.
Holding on to our own truth
As we cause others misery.
They call us
the black sheep
There's one in every family.
We don't care what you think.
Just as long as we do as we please.]
You're wasting
your life.
Why don't you go get help!
Stop causing such strife.
Don't you know - It's all in your head].
You've done
everything for me.
Now I can't help myself.
Being self sufficient
Is greater than wealth.
I repeat the
same mistakes.
I need someone to blame.
I never get a break.
I can't be tamed.
You're wasting
your life.
Why don't you go get help!
Stop causing such strife.
Don't you know - It's all in your head].
We're so nasty,
baby!
Messed up in the head.
There's no real solution.
Every one is wishing us dead.
What can I do?
Cause I've lost my mind.
Have you seen it lately?
I just can't find it.
You're wasting
your life.
Why don't you go get help!
Stop causing such strife.
Don't you know - It's all in your head.

PRINCESS 3:51
Irresponsible-
Does as she please
Irresponsible- Got more pressing needs
Irresponsible- Sorry that she's late
Irresponsible- You're treated second rate.
If she promises
to see you by noon
Time comes, she sings a different tune.
Always has a real good excuse.
Don't tie her down, or she'll turn you loose.
She's a busy gal and that's the truth.
To track her down- you need a sleuth.
So sorry she's wasted your time.
If it's not hers, ain't worth a thin dime.
Irresponsible-
Does as she please
Irresponsible- Got more pressing needs
Irresponsible- Sorry that she's late
Irresponsible- You're treated second rate.
If you need
assurances, count her out
She never lies, just complains and pouts.
It's not her fault- what she didn't do.
Intending good, sorry she hurt you.
There's always a problem- Oh, what a shame
Thank god there's someone else to blame
A real nice gal, a smile on her face
Enemies are better- What a disgrace!
Irresponsible-
Does as she please
Irresponsible- Got more pressing needs
Irresponsible- Sorry that she's late
Irresponsible- You're treated second rate.

YOU'RE EVERYTHING TO ME 4:54
I can't let
you go darling; You're everything to me
You're the first person I see when I wake up;
And the last one before I sleep
I know it's not normal; To have only one in your life
But since you decided to have me; I decided to make you my wife.

off a bridge- I'll do it
Ask me to lie- you know I'll do it
Ask me to die- Yes, I'll do it
You're everything to me] 2X
I know you are
crazy; But at least you're crazy about me
We'll stick like goo together; I don't need to be free
Just the two of us against the world; That's how it was meant to be
We'll have two model children; Start a dancing family.
[Ask me to jump
off a bridge- I'll do it
Ask me to lie- you know I'll do it
Ask me to die- Yes, I'll do it
You're everything to me] 2X

strange baby; to love you this way
and whatever the cost; you know I'm willing to pay
cause I burned all my bridges; forgot my yesterdays.
Everything you say is right; That's all I've got to say
[Ask me to jump
off a bridge- I'll do it
Ask me to lie- you know I'll do it
Ask me to die- Yes, I'll do it
You're everything to me] 2X
Don't you know

I'll give up my happiness for you baby;
Cause you're everything I'm living for.
I need your loving; You're my Mrs.
I never knew what this marital bliss is.
[Ask me to jump
off a bridge- I'll do it

SORRY EXCUSE 3:10
Hello, it's
me again
It's been a few years
Hello, it's me again
We used to drink some beers
Yeh, I got
married to someone who needs all my attention.
Haven't had time for fun and did I mention
We've had a baby, there's no time for friends.
Too much money to make, Too many cards to send.
Hello, it's
me again
It's been a few years
Hello, it's me again
We used to drink some beers
My in-laws
hate us, they beat my wife up so bad.
Now she can't hold the baby, so we're quite mad
We can't stand them, so we've moved to their street.
Took off 3 months from work, barely have enough to eat.
Hello, it's
me again
It's been a few years
Hello, it's me again
We used to drink some beers
Could use your
help, the movers stole our stuff.
My wife who hates you, just wants to be loved.
Don't talk to me, unless I need you, nothing's changed.
Let's talk music, nothing personal, or I'll feel strange.

LOVE HURTS 2:29
Pussy whipped
-That's what I am
Pussy whipped -She says I'm a man
Pussy whipped -She tells me what to do
I listen to her instead of you
My wife says
I'm a mommy's boy no more
Lost my mind, now I know the score.
I wash her laundry instead of yours
Got a new religion, it's her I adore.
Pussy whipped
-That's what I am
Pussy whipped -She says I'm a man
Pussy whipped -She tells me what to do
I listen to her instead of you
We have no
friends, no one talks to us.
If you disagree, we'll kick up a fuss.
I know I'm happy cause my wife tells me so.
She tells me when to come.
and tells me when to go.
Pussy whipped -That's what I am
Pussy whipped -She says I'm a man
Pussy whipped -She tells me what to do
I listen to her instead of you
When I'm on
the phone
My wife listens in
We never fight cause I always give in.
Life's so much easier since I know what to do
My body's white, but my spirit's black & blue.
I'm pussy whipped
-That's what I am
I'm pussy whipped.

I'M LEAVING YOU 4:09
I've had it
so hard, for way too long;
Now I can't take it anymore
I'm walking out on you;
Baby we're through
I'm tired of always singing the blues;
I remember when we first went together
We laughed and loved Till dawn;
Falling asleep in each other's arms.
Where has our love gone?
I'm leaving
you dear; Not coming back
Living with you; Will give me a heart attack, attack, attack!
You've shown me your true self;
Why did you lie to me that way?
Since you don't love me anymore;
Your gonna pay come Judgment Day
I wish you'd die; But don't take me too.
I don't know why I quiver when I think of you.
Tell me why you do what you do; Why do I always get screwed?
I'm leaving
you dear; Not coming back
Living with you; Will give me a heart attack, attack, attack!
But I can't
take another heartbreak;
I guess it's time I moved on
I don't know why our sweet love soured;
I don't know where it's gone.
I feel like a crumb, not a cake; Without you I want to die.
Another day, I can't take it; But I have to say goodbye.
I'm leaving you dear; Not coming back
Living with you; Will give me a heart attack, attack, attack!

GOOD BYE FOREVER 3:12
It's not my
fault
That I was born
Why take responsibility
When you can pass it on?
I can do, whatever I want
It doesn't matter
If I'm right or wrong.
I get depressed
when I look around
Sometimes I'm up, sometimes I'm down.
I can't take it anymoreleaving here, walking out the door.
Don't want to live in pain or fear.
Don't think I'll survive another year.
Some people
say: "Love is grand"
I feel like taking all the pills on my nightstand
Don't want to live another minute
Life will go on, But not with me in it.
Tell my parents, I said good bye
I'm burned out from drugs
They no longer make me high.
I get depressed
when I look around
Sometimes I'm up, sometimes I'm down.
I can't take it anymore
leaving here, walking out the door.
Don't want to live in pain or fear.
Don't think I'll survive another year.
I don't know
what went wrong
But it's not it's not my fault
I'm gonna check out of here
I'm tired of crying those bitter tears.
I live in daily misery
Leaving this planet will be ecstasy
One more minute is much too long
These are my last words. The words of this song.
Gone, I'm gone.
Gone, I'm gone. Gone, I'm gone.

RITTENHOUSE SQUARE 3:30
It happened
one afternoon
Watching the spring flowers bloom.
Someone shoved a pamphlet in his hand.
He read the facts and did understand.
He's gay - didn't
grow up that way
Found out just today -He's gay, He's gay, He's gay
In god's image
man was made
Man loved god - what else to say?
Love another as you love yourself
And you'll possess the greatest wealth
He's gay - didn't
grow up that way
Found out just today -He's gay, He's gay, He's gay
He ran down
to Rittenhouse Square
Where leather is worn with no hair.
One smile later they were in bed
I guess it all went to his head.
He's gay - didn't
grow up that way
Found out just today -He's gay, He's gay, He's gay
He changed his
mind - now she's straight
Became transsexual - now her period's late
You can see her on TV this afternoon
On Oprah, Rivera, Sally Jesse too
She's straight
- Thank god it's not too late
She's looking for a mate - she's straight, He's gay, he's straight.

15. YO DAD,
WHASUP 3:55
Did you smoke
pot, dad?
Have sex before you were married?
Were you ever arrested?
Was your hair long and scraggily?
Me and my friends, They want to know
Could we have a party?
Just a few friends with some buds
To get it started.
I guess things
keep on changing until you die.
Everyone's searching for that spiritual high!
` Where have
the years gone? So fast.
My baby's 21.
All those memories of the past.
I never thought the day would come.
He's now left home, having reached that age to be moving on.
It's not a stage, he's grown now.
the days of childhood have gone.
I guess things
keep on changing until you die.
Everyone's searching for that spiritual high!
I guess things
keep on changing until you die.
Everyone's searching for that spiritual high!
I tried to teach
my values of love peace and harmony.
I think it's true what they say-
"the apple doesn't fall far from the tree".
I hope I spared him some of life's pain,
teaching him its mysteries.
I only wish him happiness and a spirit that'll soar free.
I guess things
keep on changing until you die.
Everyone's searching for that spiritual high!

EMPTY NEST 3:36
We've been together
for so many years;
I know, I can't believe it myself
We were so young and in love;
Though in the beginning it was mostly lust
Oh how wonderful that we have each other;
I can't believe how the years have flown.
We've been married
such a long time;
Now our, our kids have grown.
It wasn't always
easy; we did the best we could.
But now we're older and wiser;
Life's getting better one day at a time.
We've got so much to look forward.
I'm so thrilled
we have each other;
I know that I - I want you forever
You are my love- You are my passion;
And you're still my best friend
I am so lucky to have you baby,
in my life and I know we'll make it
Now that we're together alone;
Now that both kids have left home
It wasn't always
easy; we did the best we could.
But now we're older and wiser;
Life's getting better one day at a time.
We've got so much to look forward.
We're going
to do whatever we want to;
First we'll pay off the college debt, you bet
Then we'll save for our future together;
Cause with you it only gets better.
I want to make love to you darling;
Since you're the best thing in my world
It's a joyride living life's adventure;
With you baby sharing your life with me.
It wasn't always
easy; we did the best we could.
But now we're older and wiser;
Life's getting better one day at a time.
We've got so much to look forward.
