In It For the Money
03:08
|

I'm in it for the money
I'm in it for the speed
I'm in in for the rush I get, the adrenalin
I'm in it for the thrill
I'm in it for the money
I'm in it for the kicks
I'm in in for the madness, honey
I'm in it for the fix
Your seeking fame and glory
Your tell yourself your special and
your looking for an ego boost
You looking for yourself
But there is no self to find
behind your broken ego
You cannot change the world like that
there is no fame and glory that's why
I'm in it for the money
I'm in it for the speed
I'm in in for the rush I get, the adrenalin
I'm in it for the thrill
I'm in it for the money
I'm in it for the kicks
I'm in in for the madness, honey
I'm in it for the fix
Don't cry, baby
Go buy some superglue
Fix that broken ego
It's alright, baby
You tag your yourself and text your friends
they´re pretty and unique
hoping they'll return the favor
hoping they're sincere
You're praying that eventually
you'll be discovered and acknowledged
You need reaffirmation
You need it oh so bad – but me...
I'm in it for the money
I'm in it for the speed
I'm in in for the rush I get, the adrenalin
I'm in it for the thrill
I'm in it for the money
I'm in it for the kicks
I'm in in for the madness, honey
I'm in it for the fix
I'm in it for the money
I'm in it for the speed
I'm in in for the rush I get, the adrenalin
I'm in it for the thrill
I'm in it for the money
I'm in it for the kicks
I'm in in for the madness, honey
I'm in it for the fix

Stalker
02:56
|

Stalker, stalker, what do you do?
What do you do when you're not coming through?
Are you, are you going insane
When she's not getting back to you?
Stalker, stop stalking
But I'm only courting
Stalker, stop stalking
But I'm only loving her
Stalker, stalker, move on
She is, she is through with you
Can you, can you understand
Why she's running away from you?
Stalker, stop stalking
But I'm only courting
Stalker, stop stalking
But I'm only loving
Stalker, stop stalking
But I'm only courting
Stalker, stop stalking
But I'm only loving her
Stalker is in denial
He's lost his mind
Stalker is in denial
He's lost his mind
Stalker, stalker
Stop stalking
Stalker, stalker
Stop stalking
Stalker, stalker
Stop stalking
Stalker, stalker
Stop stalking
Stalker, stop stalking
But I'm only courting
Stalker, stop stalking
But I'm only loving
Stalker, stop stalking
But I'm only courting
Stalker, stop stalking
But I'm only loving her

L.A.
03:17
|
|||
I felt so much at home
when I first came to town
Hollywood I'd roam
like a drunk clown
I saw the dreams and lights
I'd seen on tv my whole life
What a gorgous paradise
Unfolding before my eyes
I'm in L.A.
It's a beautiful day
Never wanna be away
Cuz I'm on my way
I live in L.A.
And everything's ok
When gigging at Buffalo Bills
I'd miss my green kingdome
I just knew the Hollywood hills
would be my forever home
And I never wanna leave again
Because the Cali energy
Is such a beautiful array
Of all the branches on Odin's tree
I'm in L.A.
It's a beautiful day
Never wanna be away
Cuz I'm on way
everything's ok
I live in L.A
Strolling down the dirty boulevard
And the artsy side streets
Venice hippie backyards
Stoned in the pleasant heat
Oakwood's old fashion lookin' jews
Old dudes at Rainbow bar and grill
The pacific ocean view from Malibu
The flowers, palm trees and the Hollywood hills
I love it all
And I'm not ashamed to say
cuz
I'm in L.A.
It's a beautiful day
Never wanna be away
Cuz I'm on way
everything's ok
Cuz I'm in L.A

Muse

Muse
I am speechless
No more words to say
No more lyrics to write
No more new songs to sing about
You, my muse
I am done
What took me so long
To understand you're not a man for me
I am done
What took me so long
To understand you're not a man for me
I've been sleepless
Inspired by you, my muse
No more late nights
No more thoughts of what we could have done
You and me, my muse
I am done
What took me so long
To understand you're not a man for me
I am done
What took me so long
To understand you're not a man for me
Cotton cock is what
We'd call you in my native tongue
But I won't sink so low
This will be my last song about you, my muse
I am done
What took me so long
To understand you're not a man for me
I am done
What took me so long
To understand you're not a man for me
I am done
What took me so long
To understand you're not a man for me

Dirty Dishes
03:29
|
|||
I've been doing your dirty dishes for too long
It's time I leave and head out for some fun
You said you'd take care of me
But lately you've acting like a baby
Life can be hard and
Two should make it light
But I ain't getting no more from you
Than dirty dishes and sleepless night
Gonna close the door and say "hey"
Baby, I'm done doing them dirty dishes
Gonna get in my car and sing "hey"
Honey, I'm done doing them dirty dishes
Gonna go straight to the bar and yell "hey"
Baby, I'm done doing them dirty dishes
Gonna dance all night long to the sound of "hey"
Honey, I'm done doing them dirty dishes
Babe, I've scrubbed the floors. Washed your clothes
Made your favorite breakfast, lunch and dinner
It's time I leave and carve myself
A spot as a winner
Life can be hard and
Two should make it light
But I ain't getting no more from you
Than dirty dishes and sleepless night
Gonna close the door and say "hey"
Baby, I'm done doing them dirty dishes
Gonna get in my car and sing "hey"
Honey, I'm done doing them dirty dishes
Gonna go straight to the bar and yell "hey"
Baby, I'm done doing them dirty dishes
Gonna dance all night long to the sound of "hey"
Honey, I'm done doing them dirty dishes
No, no, no, no, no more
Gonna close the door and say "hey"
Baby, I'm done doing them dirty dishes
Gonna get in my car and sing "hey"
Honey, I'm done doing them dirty dishes
Gonna go straight to the bar and yell "hey"
Baby, I'm done doing them dirty dishes (Oh)
Gonna dance all night long to the sound of "hey"
Honey, I'm done doing them dirty dishes
Honey, I'm done doing them dirty dishes
Honey, I'm done doing your dirty dishes

Colors of the Forest
I had a vision
Of me on the ground
I was dressed in colors of the forest
She sent me a postcard
Of me pictured as a fairy
She wrote to me that I was
A goddess floating in the wind and...
I was a queen of everything that I dream
I was a queen of everything that I dream
Everything was following me
Cuz I was following my own path
Everything was following me
Cuz I was following my own path
In the universe
I had a vision of me
I was grounded in earth
I was floating in the water of life
Then you came and showed me that
I am a queen of everything that I dream
I am a queen of everything that I dream
Everything was following me
Cuz I was following my own path
Everything was following me
Cuz I was following my own path
Everything was following me
Cuz I am following my own path
In the universe
In the universe
In the universe

Britney Wannabe?
I've moved to a strange city
Bored and alone with my dreams
But believing that this is my opportunity
to show the world my philosophies
Life has no meaning
If not fulfilling my life dream
I don't care about love or money
I just wanna be seen
Britney, I love you hopelessly
But I'll let you go free
It's the thing you are I wanna be
Britney I love you hopelessly
But this time it'll be me
This is the case
I wanna be in your place
My talent and my dream are my lifebase
Let me take a look at your face:
This is my destiny
I'll let you go free
It's the thing you are
I wanna be
Britney, I love you hopelessly
But I'll let you go free
It's the thing you are I wanna be
Britney I love you hopelessly
But this time it'll be me
Britney, I love you hopelessly
But I'll let you go free
It's the thing you are I wanna be
Britney I love you hopelessly
But this time it'll be me

Sandstorm
03:32
|

TThere's a sandstorm coming in
Lock the door and bar the windows
Feed the dog and get the cat
Cause the sandstorm's closing in
How many fingers must I cross?
And how many prayers must I say?
How many chances must I pass?
To get the hell away
There's a sandstorm going on
The door is locked, the windows barred
The dog is barking, the cat is gone
But I'm not there
How many rivers must I cross?
How many miles must I walk?
And how many mountains must I crawl?
To escape the sandstorm in my mind?
Take me away
Take me away
Take me away
Take me away
Take me away
Take me away
Take me away
Take me away
How many fingers must I cross?
How many prayers must I say?
How many chances must I pass?
To get the hell away

Be With Me

Be with Me
Do you think about it
When you come at night?
Do you think about it
When she turns off the light?
Do you think about it
When she's up for having sex?
Is it just a nice flirt
Or are you serious, babe?
I think you should
Be with me
I think you should
Be with me
If you ask me
I think you should
Be with me
Be with me
I think you are gorgeous
Quite extraordinary
See, it's so rare to find
Someone so charming
I usually find that
Quite alarming
See, I'm used to it comes hand in hand
with a warning:
Player, player, player,
In your case,
Well, I'm not sure yet
But I think you
Should be with me
If you ask me
I think you should
Be with me
If you ask me
I think you should
Be with me
Be with me

I don't Understand
I don't understand
Why you do
Things that you don't wanna do
Honey, I wanna understand you
I don't understand
Why you don't
do the thing you wanna do
Honey, I wanna understand you
That is why I go on on
That is why I speak to your conscience
That is why I go on on
Now I know I hurt you by
Messing around with your mind
Cuz how can you answer?
Honey, when you don't understand you
You don't understand
Why you don't
Do the things you wanna do
Honey, I wish you understood you
That is why I go on on
That is why I speak to your conscience
That is why I go on on
Now I know I hurt you by
Messing around with your mind
Cuz how can you answer?
That is why I go on on
That is why I speak to your conscience
That is why I go on on
Now I know I hurt you by
Messing around with your mind
Cuz how can you answer?

Cuz how can you answer?
Honey, when you don't understand you
Cuz how can you answer?
Honey, when you don't understand you

Monique Says:
Monique Says
Take me home
for I shall like to be alone
You're not who you claim
It's making me insane
It's making me insane
Oh he was hurt
Spat on her shirt
Then it was on
Nobody won, nobody won
No one won
Monique says
Take me home
The leave on your own
Trying not to cry
Drove to the Westside
Drove to the Westside

Intuition (Jewel)
I'm just a simple girl
In a high tech digital world
I really try to understand
All the powers that rule this land
They say Miss J's big butt is boss
Kate Moss can't find a job
In a world of post modern fad
What was good now is bad
It's not hard to understand
Just follow this simple plan
Follow your heart
Your intuition
It will lead you in the right direction
Let go of your mind
Your Intuition
It's easy to find
Just follow your heart baby
You look at me
but you're not quite sure
Am I it or could you get more?
You learn cool from magazines
You learn love from Charlie Sheen
If you want me let me know
I promise I won't say no
[CHORUS REPEAT]
You got something that you want me to sell
Sell your sin. Just cash in.
You got something that you want me to tell
You'll love me. Wait and see.
If you want me
Don't play games
I promise
it won't be in vain
Uh-uh-uh
[CHORUS]

Who Am I?
04:01
|

Who am I?
Who am I when I keep changing myself?
Who am I when I keep changing myself?
Who am I when I keep changing myself?
I gotta change my faith
Because I can't be myself
When I'm all consumed by you
And I can't seem to shake you out of my head
So come quickly
Come now
Before I loose another you
See, my faith is on the loose
So call on the force
Call all the angels and the universe too
I don't attract you
I don't make sense
When I'm limping away from your bed
Bleeding, my boy
Making a mess
Oh, no one can love me like this
No, no one can love me like this
Who am I when I keep changing myself?
Who am I when I keep changing myself?
I'm loosing my blood
I'm calling for help
But you leave me laying like this
You're watching me crawl
As I'm trying to get through
To that isolated place
You've made for you
I so wanna, wanna get in
But I see no invitation from you
I'm bleeding in a pool
And I keep my eyes on you
As you turn away from me
I'm so messed up
Gotta gotta go patch up
I drop you off and give you my bravest smile
But you give me a pad on the shoulder
As you say your goodbyes
There's no blaim cuz i don't know who I am
Who am I when I keep changing myself?
Who am I when I keep changing myself?
Who am I when I keep changing myself?
Who am I when I keep changing myself?
