Little Things
Yeah, this song is dedicated to every kid who ever got picked last in gym class This is for you To every kid who never had a date to no school dance This is for you
To everyone who's ever been called a freak Here we, here we go What? y'all know what I'm talking about, y'all know what I'm saying
Like the time in school when we got free lunch and the cool kids beat us up reduced lunch And the rich kids had convertibles and we had to ride the bus fifty-five
Like the time we made the baseball team, but they still laughed at us we still suck Like the time that girl broke up with me cause I wasn't cool enoughTrick!
Things...
The little things they always hang around
The little things they try to break me down
The little things they just won't go away
The little things made me who I am today
You wanna hate me knowBut I won't stop know, cause I can't stop now
What? Come on. Ungh.
Here we go
Like the time mom went to that institute cause she was breaking down I just can't take it
Like the car we had that wouldn't start, we had to walk to get around Can I get a ride And that same year on Christmas Eve, Dad went to the store uh, I'll see you guys later We checked his room, his things were gone We didn't see him no more Dick!
Things...
The little things they always hang around
The little things they try to break me down
The little things they just won't go away
The little things made me who I am today
You wanna hate me know But I won't stop know, cause I can't stop nowIt always seems those little things they take the biggest part of me...
And I know that those little things they make the biggest part of me break downI'm breaking down
Break down
Gotta maintain
"Waldorfworldwide"
Listen up 'cause there ain't nothin' funny,I wanna hot girl and a little bit of money,I wanna little house where my band can live,'Cause we're tired of movin' every other weekend I wanna go to parties where they got no guns,

[Chorus]
Everything's gonna be alright now, everything's gonna be alright Get down stay up all night now, Let's do this one more time,Everything'll be alright, Everything will be alright, alright
[Chorus Ends]
All I wanna do is kick the welfare, all I wanna do is get my share All I wanna do is kick the welfare, all I wanna do is get my share And I don't wanna run for the president, I just want an honest way to pay my rent
And I'm tired of the man always shuttin' us down,Tired of my old man 'cause he's never around And I'm tired of eating off of other people's plates,And I don't look important, so they're tellin' me to wait Police records said they wouldn't exist,I wanna know the meaning of a Christmas list Said all I wanna do is kick the welfare,
All I wanna do is get my share,All I wanna do is make somethin' from nothin',It's GC baby and we're workin' with somethin',
[Chorus]
[Chorus Ends]
We'll be self-made millionaires,These lives we'll lead without a care, oh yeah,And we'll see what we'll be
Everything's gonna be alright now,Everybody say it one more time,Everything will be alright, alright,
We'll see you when we get there, We'll see you when we get there,On the video, Or the radio, In the magazines, On the movie screens
"The Motivation Proclamation"
Spend your lazy, endless crazy days, inside my head,
You're so selfish, you're not the only one who thinks he's dead
I'm paid to smile, now I'm on trial for what you think I said
'Cause I never said that everything would be ok,
And I never said that we would live to see another day
[Chorus]
Motivate me, I wanna get myself out of this bed,
Captivate me, I want good thoughts inside of my head,
When I fall down would you come around and pick me right up off the ground
[Chorus Ends]
I'm un-artistic, I'm un-realistic,
You say I'm selfish and absurd
You try to change me, you try to save me
You say I'm gonna learn, I'm so blind,
I'm out of time, You're so unkind sometimes,
I never lied, I never lied, I never lied...
[Chorus]
[Chorus Ends]
'Cause everything it'll be ok,
You know we're gonna live to see another day,
Yeah...yeah...
Motivate me...yeah,
Motivate me...yeah
"East Coast Anthem"
Walking on the streets of D.C.,
On the eastcoast where I live, You say what's the problem
What's with this angry kid
You don't like the way I walk, Or the way I talk,
Or the way I swing my hands,
You don't like the words I speak, or the thoughts I think
And I know you'll understand
[Chorus]
You know-
On the eastcoast, we ride until we die-
You know,
Well there's a place inside my mind,
Yeah a place you'll never find,
There's a place inside my mind, We'll leave today
[Chorus Ends]
Wouldn't it be perfect if I could sit with you?
And we would change a thing or 2, we would change a thing or 2,
We would change the way you think, we would change the way I think,
We can't change the way they think so we're not changin' anything
[Chorus]
[Chorus Ends]
On the eastcoast we ride, until the day we die
"Festival Song"
I don't care about a thing, I used to but I'm fed up,
And I can hear the words you say, I wish that you would shut up
I've got responsibility, that is my liability, a menace to society,
At least that's what they say to me,
But tonight, tonight, it's on tonight
I don't want your boring life, And I don't want your 9 to 5,
Or anyone to tell me how to live my life,
People always tell me not to waste my time,
To get a real job and get back in line,
You can say I'll never be a millionaire,
Tell me this guitar won't get me anywhere,
I've got responsibility, that is my liability,
I'm questioning authority
They say there's not a chance for me
[Chorus]
Your future's no future,
Your future's no future,
Your future's no future,
I control my life
[Chorus]
"Complicated"
And we've been here for so many years,
Still it seems as if you're not there (are you there)
Every time I talk, you turn away (do you care),
Isn't Dad an obligation to care
[Chorus]
And we've been here for so many years,
So many years still it seems,
So complicated, overrated, complicated,
This feeling is low
[Chorus Ends]
Well I came in the door, I said it before,
I never let the stress get me down no more
Giving thanks to the Lord, and I pray every day,
Giving shots to my peeps and this is what we said,
[Chorus]
[Chorus Ends]
You left us one little room with a black and white TV,
One eviction notice, and a bill for therapy,
You're living all alone you're like a dog without a bone,
You're living all alone 'cause you left us all at home,
Well you had a second chance but you threw it all away,
A fourth and fifth and sixth but that was yesterday,
Now you're sitting at a bar just a drowning in your tears,
Lonely in your corner while everybody cheers,
[Chorus]
[Chorus Ends]
"Seasons"
Summer air reminds me of all the feelings of your love,
And what it was like when we were together,
Walking all along the beach, you were never far from my reach,
And you held me through the stormy weather,
[Chorus]
And I want to fall in love tonight,
And I remember when you said "everything's gonna be alright"
[Chorus Ends]
Laying in the summer grass, you told me not to talk so fast,
As I told you how I feel,
You made me feel right at home,
You told me I was not alone and you knew just how I feel,
[Chorus]
[Chorus Ends]
I know we talked about it, I just can't get around it,
I just want one more night with you,
[Chorus]
[Chorus Ends]
October air reminds me of all the seasons of your love,
And what it was like when we were together
The smell of fall is everywhere and though it seems,
I just don't care, 'cause now you've gone away,
[Chorus]
[Chorus Ends]
"I Don't Wanna Stop"
All these games you play, they're messin' with my head,(messin with my head)
I don't know why I stay, I should leave instead (I should leave instead),
When I speak from my heart, you laugh like it's a game (this ain't no game)
Yeah we'd make great friends, but it just isn't the same...
[Chorus]
And I know this is not the way it should be,
And I know you treat him like me,
But I don't wanna stop, I don't wanna stop, I don't wanna stop
[Chorus Ends]
Now I don't need you to buy me pretty things (you don't pay for me),
Pay for my tattoos or buy me diamond rings (we don't want those things),
All I know is that I'm happy to see you smile (i want to see you smile),
And it'd make my day if you'd just stay here awhile (stay with me),
[Chorus]
[Chorus Ends]
This has gone on way too long...
And I'm tired of movin' on,
[Chorus]
[Chorus Ends]
"I Heard You"
Today I screwed up again,
You said I could tell in the way you said goodbye,
I saw you sitting at your t-shirt stand with your new boyfriend,
He's really cool, I get the point
[Chorus]
I don't want you, I don't want you,
I heard you, I heard you, I heard you say not a chance,
What don't you see,
I don't want you, I don't want you,
I heard you, I heard you, I heard you say you're not good enough for me
[Chorus Ends]
Today I screwed up again,
I wasn't paying attention, I walked into the wall again,
I heard you laugh and saw you grin,
While you were sitting at your t-shirt stand,
With all your cool friends, they're really cool,
I get the point
[Chorus]
[Chorus Ends]
Today I'll give it one last try,
And then I'll wonder why, I did it to myself once again,
I saw your boyfriend, he's 6'3", Quarterback on varsity
The football players love to torture me,
So I'm feeling like I'm not fitting in,
I know that I'm not fitting in with you,
And your stuck-up friends, I get the point
"Walk By"
She walks down to the store at eight,
The devil walks with her and he thinks she's great,
When she looks at me, I don't know what I saw,
I think he's tryin' to make me his son in law
[Chorus]
When she,
Walks by, walks by, walks by, she walks on by
[Chorus Ends]
Egos fly when she walks by,
She caught my eye on October 9th,
22 days before Halloween, How did I know she'd be my evil queen,
[Chorus]
[Chorus Ends]
My mother warned me against girls like you,
She said stay away from them son, you know they're not true,
All they're gonna do is put you under a spell, she told me,
When you're fallin' down, you're going straight to hell
[Chorus]
[Chorus Ends]
"Let Me Go"
Down in the streets outside of Washington, D.C.,
I wasted all my time and you were there with me,
Back then it meant so much to have you by my side,
I always had your back, and you always had mine
Sayin...
[Chorus]
Let me go, Have some fun,
Well my decision sucks, yeah
But I'm so young
[Chorus Ends]
We'd hang out late and fight just trying to have fun
We were such punk ass kids but we knew everyone
And who could see through such blazed up bloodshot eyes,
There was a plan for us one day we'd realize,
[Chorus]
[Chorus Ends]
"Screamer"
Communication is a lot like the wind,
When I speak, It's like no one understands and I'm left with empty hands,
Forever I can't speak, So many things I'll never learn
You can't cross bridges that you've burned,
Why is life such an issue in your mind,
Why are the answers to my problems hard to find, So hard to find
Don't forget to buckle when you fall,
Beneath the pressure of the seconds, when, your life becomes a screamer,
Staring at the sea, things become so small,
I want movies of my life, and pictures on my wall,
Pictures on my wall,
[Chorus]
You say that I'm a dreamer,
I say you're a non believer,
Take out the light, take out the light, Start screamin',
I'm dreaming, I'm a dreamer, no one believes me,
And you don't either, So tell me what to do
Take out the light, Take out the light,
Take out the light start screamin'
[Chorus Ends]
"Change"
I am lost in the see-thru, I think you lost yourself too,
Throughout all of this confusion, I hope I somehow get to you,
I practiced all the things I'd say, To tell you how I feel,
And when I finally get my chance, It all seems so surreal,
'Cause from the first time I saw you, I only thought about you,
I didn't know you, I wanted to hold onto, The things you'd never say to me,
'Cause you said
[Chorus]
You can't change the way you feel,
I could never do that, I could never do that,
But you can't tell me this ain't real,
'Cause this is real
And you would see right through that,
In the end it's all I've got, So I'm gonna hold onto that,
So I'm gonna hold on and on and on and on,
[Chorus Ends]
Now you've got me watching your eyes,
Got me waiting just to see, If it goes the way it never will,
Your eyes are watching me, and now you've got me thinking 'bout,
The first time that I met you, Standing in a crowded room,
But I could only see you, And I hope my words will get through,
'Cause now I can't forget you, I want to tell you,
If only I could reach you, And make you feel this way,
But you said...
[Chorus]
[Chorus Ends]
"Thank You Mom"
I'm sitting here, I'm thinking back to a time when I was young,
My memory is clear as day, I'm listening to the dishes clink,
You were downstairs, you would sing songs of praise,
And all the times we laughed with you,
And all the times that you stayed true to us,
Now we say, I said, I thank you,
I'll always thank you, More than you could know,
Than I could ever show, And I love you, I'll always love you,
There's nothing I won't do to say these words to you,
That you're beautiful forever, you were my mom, you were my dad,
The only thing I ever had was you, It's true,
And even when the times got hard you were there,
To let us know that we'd get through, you showed me how to be a man,
You taught me how to understand the things people do,
You showed me how to love my God, You taught me that not everyone knows the truth,
And I thank you, I'll always thank you,
More than you could know, Than I could ever show,
And I love you, I'll always love you, There's nothing I won't do to say these words to you,
That you will live forever, always
Another Loser Anthem
So its a new day
But it all feels old
Its a good life
Thats what Im told
But everything it all just feels the same
At my high school
It felt more to me
Like a jail cell, a penitentiary
But I think they thought it would never end
Cause I dont ever wanna be like you
I dont wanna do the things you do
Im never gonna hear the words you say
And I dont ever wanna
No I dont ever wanna be you
Dont wanna be just like you
What Im saying is
This is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
You, Dont wanna be you
So its a new day
But its not the day
It two sided
To go against that way
Its time for you to live the way you are
You can give up
And just get in line
Or you can stand up
And stop wasting time
Its time for you to do just what you want
Do you really want to be like them?
Do you really wanna be another trend?
Are you gonna be part of that crowd?
Cause I dont ever wanna
I dont ever wanna be you
Dont wanna be just like you
What Im saying is
This is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
You, dont wanna be you
Shake it once thats fine
Shake it twice thats ok
Shake it 3 times youre playing with yourself again
rap soundy thing
You, dont wanna be just like you Joel what Im saying is
This is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
Jump if you feel me
Sing if youre with me
Yea, dont wanna be just like you
What Im saying is this is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
Jump if you feel me
Sing if youre with me
Another loser anthem
Another loser anthem
Another loser anthem
Another loser anthem
