As lashes close
I see my woes
Spread out like a carpet of bugs.
In absence of light
Pass visions of night
And shallow graves left halfway dug.
Behind my eyelids
Is a world you cannot see,
A place that's just for me
Behind my eyelids.
You watch a tear.
It trickles clear
And glistens on my skin.
My liquid pain,
Oh, would profane.
Please, baby, let me in.
Behind my eyelids
Everything's always low.
I'm left in an eerie limbo
Behind my eyelids.
I can't abide
No place to hide.
I'm exposed to what is true
Here on the floor
I call out, "More!"
But know I won't get through.
Behind my eyelids
I've hit low altitude,
And nothing's helping my mood
Behind my eyelids.
The walls close in.
The ice gets thin.
In my own reality.
I'm left alone.
I have no home.
I'm a psychic refugee.
Behind my eyelids
Is a world you cannot see,
A place that's just for me
Behind my eyelids.
Oh make me over.
I'm all I wanna be:
A walking study
In demonology
Hey, so glad you could make it.
Yeah, now you've really made it.
Hey, there's only us who made it now.
Oh look at my face.
My name is might have been.
My name is never was.
My name's forgotten.
Hey, so glad you could make it.
Yeah, now you've really made it.
Hey, there's only us who made it now.
When I wake up in my makeup
It's too early for that dress.
Wilted and faded somewhere in Hollywood,
I'm glad I came here with your pound of flesh.
No second billing cause you're a star now.
Oh Cinderella, they aren't sluts like you.
Beautiful garbage, beautiful dresses--
Can you stand up, or will you just fall down?
You better watch out,
Oh, what you wish for.
It better to be worth it.
So much to die for.
Hey, so glad you could make it.
Yeah, now you've really made it.
Hey, there's only us who made it now.
When I wake up in my makeup
Have you ever felt so used up as this?
It's all so sugarless:
Hooker/waitress, model/actress.
Oh, just go nameless.
Honeysuckle,
She's full of poison.
She obliterated everything she kissed.
Now she's fading somewhere in Hollywood.
I'm glad I came here with your pound of flesh.
You want a part of me.
Well I won't sell it cheap.
No, I won't sell it cheap.

You're going to get what you deserve.

I'd rather die
Than give you control.

You're the Devil in black,
And you sure have a knack
For putting my heart on the shelf in the back.
I'm waiting my turn.
Oh, when will I learn?
My poor heart, you're giving it freezer burn!
Yeah...
Icebox woman--
Can't you leave me alone?
Icebox woman--
Can't you quit and go home?
Icebox woman--
Oh, what deed did I do--
Icebox woman--
To meet someone like you?
You've filled me with strife
Every day of my life
Since we met. Who would want you for a lover or wife?
'Cause fair or unfair,
Oh, why would you care
When losing the game is more than you can bear?
Yeah...
Icebox woman--
Can't you leave me alone?
Icebox woman--
Can't you quit and go home?
Icebox woman--
Oh, what deed did I do--
Icebox woman--
To meet someone like you?
All I had you have taken.
My foundations are shaken.
Oh, when from the glitter berries shall I awaken?
And I must be sincere
With the end very near
And ask: can you tell me for what reason you're here?
Yeah...
Icebox woman--
Can't you leave me alone?
Icebox woman--
Can't you quit and go home?
Icebox woman--
Oh, what deed did I do--

It's all about the Pentiums, baby.
Uhh, uh-huh, yeah. Uhh, uh-huh, yeah.
It's all about the Pentiums, baby.
It's all about the Pentiums, baby.
It's all about the Pentiums!
It's all about the Pentiums!
(Yeah!!)
What y'all wanna do?
Wanna be hackers? Code crackers? Slackers
Wastin' time with all the chatroom yakkers?
9 to 5, chillin' at Hewlett Packard?
Workin' at a desk with a dumb little placard?
Yeah, payin' the bills with my mad programming skills,
Defraggin' my hard drive for thrills.
I got me a hundred gigabytes of RAM.
I never feed trolls and I don't read spam.
Installed a T1 line in my house.
Always at my PC, double-clickin' on my mizouse.
Upgrade my system at least twice a day.
I'm strictly plug-and-play, I ain't afraid of Y2K.
I'm down with Bill Gates, I call him Money for short.
I phone him up at home and I make him do my tech support.
It's all about the Pentiums, what?
You gotta be the dumbest newbie I've ever seen.
You've got white-out all over your screen.
You think your Commodore 64 is really neato.
What kinda chip you got in there, a Dorito?
You're using a 286? Don't make me laugh.
Your Windows boots up in what, a day and a half?
You could back up your whole hard drive on a floppy diskette.
You're the biggest joke on the internet.
Your database is a disaster.
You're waxin' your modem tryin' to make it go faster.
Hey fella, I bet you're still livin' in your parents' cellar,
Downloadin' pictures of Sarah Michelle Gellar
And postin "Me too!" like some brain-dead AOL-er.
I should do the world a favor and cap you like Old Yeller.
You're just about as useless as jpegs to Helen Keller.
It's all about the Pentiums!
It's all about the Pentiums!
It's all about the Pentiums!
It's all about the Pentiums!
Now, what y'all wanna do?
Wanna be hackers? Code crackers? Slackers
Wastin' time with all the chatroom yakkers?
9 to 5, chillin' at Hewlett Packard?
Uh, uh, loggin' in now.
Wanna run wit my crew, hah?
Rule cyberspace and crunch numbers like I do?
They call me the king of the spreadsheets.
Got 'em all printed out on my bedsheets.
My new computer's got the clocks, it rocks,
But it was obsolete before I opened the box.
You say you've had your desktop for over a week?
Throw that junk away, man, it's an antique!
Your laptop is a month old? Well, that's great--
If you could use a nice, heavy paperweight
My digital media is write-protected,
Every file inspected, no viruses detected.
I beta tested every operating system.
Gave props to some, and others? I dissed 'em.
While your computer's crashin', mine's multitaskin'.
It does all my work without me even askin'.
Got a flat-screen monitor, 40" wide.
I believe that yours says "Etch-A-Sketch" on the side.
In a 32-bit world, you're a 2-bit user.
You've got your own newsgroup, alt.total-loser.
Your mother board melts when you try to send a fax.
Where'd you get your CPU, in a box of Cracker Jacks?
Play me online? Well, you know that I'll beat you.
If I ever meet you I'll control-alt-delete you.
What?
It's all about the Pentiums!
It's all about the Pentiums!
It's all about the Pentiums!
It's all about the Pentiums!
What y'all wanna do?
Wanna be hackers? Code crackers? Slackers
Wastin' time with all the chatroom yakkers?
9 to 5, chillin' at Hewlett Packard?
What??
"The Kids Aren't Alright" (The Offspring)
When we were young the future was so bright.
The old neighborhood was so alive.
And every kid on the whole damn street
Was gonna make it big and not be beat.
Now the neighborhood's cracked and torn.
The kids are grown up but their lives are worn.
How can one little street
Swallow so many lives?
Chances thrown.
Nothing's free.
Longing for what used to be.
Still it's hard,
Hard to see.
Fragile lives, shattered dreams.
Jamie had a chance, well she really did.
Instead she dropped out and had a couple of kids.
Mark still lives at home cause he's got no job.
He just plays guitar and smokes a lot of pot.
Jay committed suicide.
Brandon OD'd and died.
What the hell is going on?
The cruelest dream, reality.
It's been one week since you looked at me.
Cocked your head to the side and said "I'm angry".
Five days since you laughed at me saying,
"Get that together; come back and see me".
Three days since the living room.
I realized it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you.
Yesterday you'd forgiven me,
But it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry.
Hold it now and watch the hoodwink.
As I make you stop, think.
You'll think you're looking at Aquaman.
I summon fish to the dish, although I like the Chalet Swiss.
I like the sushi
'Cause it's never touched a frying pan.
Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes,
Big like LeAnn Rimes,
Because I'm all about value.
Bert Kaempfert's got the mad hits.
You try to match wits, you try to hold me but I bust through.
Gonna make a break and take a fake.
I'd like a stinkin' achin' shake.
I like vanilla, it's the finest of the flavors.
Gotta see the show, 'cause then you'll know.
The vertigo is gonna grow.
Cause it's so dangerous,
You'll have to sign a waiver.
How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad,
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad?
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral.
Can't understand what I mean?
Well, you soon will.
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve.
I have a history of taking off my shirt.
It's been one week since you looked at me.
Threw your arms in the air.
And said "You're crazy".
Five days since you tackled me.
I've still got the rug burns on both my knees.
It's been three days since the afternoon.
You realized it's not my fault,
Not a moment too soon.
Yesterday you'd forgiven me,
And now I sit back and wait till you say you're sorry.
Chickity China the Chinese chicken,
You have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin'.
Watchin' X-Files with no lights on.
We're dans la maison.
I hope the Smoking Man's in this one.
Like Harrison Ford I'm getting frantic.
Like Sting I'm tantric.
Like Snickers, guaranteed to satisfy.
Like Kurasawa I make mad films.
Okay, I don't make films,
But if I did they'd have a Samurai.
Gonna get a set a' better clubs.
Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs.
Just so my irons aren't always flying off the back-swing.
Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon,
'Cause the cartoon has got the boom anime babes
That make me think the wrong thing.
How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad,
Tryin' hard not to smile though I feel bad?
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral.
Can't understand what I mean?
Well, you soon will.
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve.
I have a history of losing my shirt.
It's been one week since you looked at me,
Dropped your arms to your sides
And said "I'm sorry".
Five days since I laughed at you and said,
"You just did just what I thought you were gonna do".
Three days since the living room.
We realized we're both to blame,
But what could we do?
Yesterday you just smiled at me,
'Cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry.
It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry.
It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry.
Birchmount Stadium, home of the Robbie.
I'm glad you're happy inflicting my pain,
Leaving skid marks on the roads of my brain.
We had no love scene, but you've cut to the chase.
You're biting off my nose to spite my face.
Ow, my nose! Ow, my face!
Ow, my nose! Ow, my face!
Ow, my nose! Ow, my face!
Ow, my nose! Ow, my face!
You've hijacked my brain, like a moth to a flame.
If you don't release me, then I'll leave the same.
It's my private Hell, where I roast in my shell.
This moth's gotta fly or else go crazy as well.
Ow, my nose! Ow, my face!
Ow, my nose! Ow, my face!
Ow, my nose! Ow, my face!
Ow, my nose! Ow, my face!
You've carved crop circles in my soul's waves of grain.
If I were to linger, it would be really lame.
One of us has to yield. Care to forfeit the game?
I'm calling all bets. You're driving me insane!
Ow, my nose! Ow, my face!
Ow, my nose! Ow, my face!
Ow, my nose! Ow, my face!
Ow, my nose! Ow, my face!
I was angry when I met you.
I think I'm angry still.
We can try and talk it over
If you say you'll help me out.
Don't worry, baby.
No need to fight.
Don't worry, baby.
We'll be alright.
This is the noise that keeps me awake.
My head explodes and my body aches.
Push it, make the beats go harder.
Push it, make the beats go harder.
Sorry that I hurt you.
Please don't ask me why.
I want to see you happy.
I want to see you shine.
Don't worry, baby.
No need to fight.
Don't worry, baby.
We'll be alright.
This is the noise that keeps me awake.
My head explodes and my body aches.
Push it, make the beats go harder.
Push it, make the beats go harder.
Come on push it, you can do it.
Come on prove it, nothing to it.
Come on use it, let's get through it.
Come on push it, you can do it.
Don't worry, baby.
Don't be uptight.
Don't worry, baby.
We'll stay up all night.
This is the noise that keeps me awake.
My head explodes and my body aches.
Push it, make the beats go harder.
Push it, make the beats go harder.
(This is the noise that keeps me awake.)
Push it, make the beats go harder.
(My head explodes and my body aches.)
Push it, make the beats go harder.
(This is the noise that keeps me awake.
My head explodes and my body aches.)
Don't worry, baby.
We'll be alright.
Don't worry, baby.
We'll be alright.
Push it.
Push it.
Push it.
Push it.
Hell's revenge cooks in my heart,
Death and despair flame about me!
If Sarastro does not through you feel
The pain of death,
Then you will be my daughter nevermore.
Disowned may you be forever,
Abandoned may you be forever,
Destroyed be forever
All the bonds of nature,
If not through you
Sarastro becomes pale as death!
Hear, gods of revenge,
Hear a mother's oath!
Load up on guns; bring your friends.
It's fun to lose and to pretend.
She's overboard and self-assured.
Oh no! I said a dirty word.
Hello, hello, hello; I don't know.
Hello, hello, hello; I don't know.
With the lights out, it's less dangerous.
Here we go now; entertain us.
I feel stupid and contagious.
A mulatto, an albino,
A mosquito, my libido.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm worse at what I do best,
And for this gift I feel blessed.
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end.
Hello, hello, hello; I don't know.
Hello, hello, hello; I don't know.
With the lights out, it's less dangerous.
Here we go now; entertain us.
I feel stupid and contagious.
A mulatto, an albino,
A mosquito, my libido.
Yeah, yeah.
And I forget just why I taste.
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile.
I found it hard; it's hard to find.
Oh well, whatever, never mind.
Hello, hello, hello; I don't know.
Hello, hello, hello; I don't know.
With the lights out, it's less dangerous.
Here we go now; entertain us.
I feel stupid and contagious.
A mulatto, an albino,
A mosquito, my libido.
Yeah, yeah.
Please allow me to introduce myself.
I'm a man of wealth and taste.
I've been around for long, long years,
Stole many a man's soul and faith.
I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain.
Made damn sure the Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed His fate.
Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name.
But what's puzzling you is the nature of my game.
I stuck around St. Petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change.
Killed the Czar and his ministers.
Anastasia screamed in vain.
I rode a tank, held a general's rank
When the Blitzkrieg raged and the bodies stank.
Pleased to meet, hope you guess my name.
Ah, what's puzzling you is the nature of my game.
I watched with glee while your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades for the gods they made.
I shouted out, "Who killed the Kennedys?!"
When after all, it was you and me.
Let me please introduce myself:
I'm a man of wealth and taste,
And I leave tracks for troubadours
Who get killed before they reach Bombay.
Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name.
But what's puzzling you is the nature of my game.
Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name.
But what's confusing you is the nature of my game.
Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints,
'Cause heads is tails just call me Lucifer,
'Cause I'm in need of some restraint.
So if you meet me, have some courtesy,
Have some sympathy, have some taste.
Use all your well learned politesse,
Or I'll lay your soul to waste.
Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name.
But what's puzzling you is the nature of my game.
Goddess on the mountain top,
Burning like a silver flame,
The summit of beauty and love,
And Venus was her name.
She's got it.
Yeah, baby, she's got it.
I'm your Venus, I'm your fire,
At your desire.
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire,
At your desire.
Her weapons were her crystal eyes,
Making every man a man.
Black as the dark night she was,
Got what no-one else had.
Wa!
She's got it.
Yeah, baby, she's got it.
I'm your Venus, I'm your fire,
At your desire.
