Stroke 9 - Latest Disaster

We met Monday night
Where my friend bartends
And always gives me drinks for free
I caught you starin
Were you comparing the guy youre talking with to me?
Then you said, "This place is dead"
"And this drink's going to my head (Take me home)"
I will if you chill
There's still time to kill and this night just started looking better

chorus:
She bought herself a guitar
She learned a few chords
She wrote me a song and it goes like this
Get out, Get dressed your just like the rest
There's only one thing your after
You're still the same self-centered bastard
Stay out all night with your shady friends
Just getting plastered
This relationship's just my latest disaster

(Now listen baby I gotta run)

I thought I was doing everything right
And givin her everything she needs
But I wake up one morning
And all that shes left was a break-up note that reads,
"You don't
And you won't
Ever see my side of things" (oh come on)
I would
If I could
But everything that I thought was good or just off center

chorus

Our points of view will never meet
I'll always miss what's incomplete

Youre just like the rest
Youre just like the rest
Youre just like the rest
Youre just like the rest
Get out, Get dressed youre just like the rest
There's only one thing your after
You're still the same self-centered bastard
Stay out all night with your shady friends
Just getting plastered
This relationship's just my latest disaster

Stroke 9 - 100 Girls

100 girls or maybe more
Who left me passed out on the floor
I know it might be wrong
I had to write this song
For a hundred girls and hundreds more

There was Katherine in Manhattan
Her mouth was always laughin'
She's always a distraction
Cuz she always wants some action
At one she took me in a cab
Two, in a Soho bar
Three, she got real bad
And jumped me in a subway car

These are Mary's voodoo ways
We would stay in bed for days
In an alligator haze
In her swampy Southern place
She broke me down on Bourbon Street
Curled up at her feet
As Mary flashed the parades
I fixed myself with hurricanes

100 girls or maybe more
Who left me passed out on the floor
I wish I heard you tell me
Make up your mind
Wake up
Make up your mind
Make up your mind

This is Daisy, this is crazy
Always telling me I'm lazy
Her endurance would amaze me
And her swearing didn't phase me
It was based upon a sweet lie
Like a butterfly
She showed herself in many phases
And had a thing for public places
Late at night in Fenway Park
She led me naked through the dark
Daisy let me suffer there
Smothered in my underwear

100 girls or maybe more
Who left me passed out on the floor
I wish I heard you tell me
Make up your mind
Wake up
Make up your mind
Make up your mind

There was Allison and here's the thing
I thought that she was 17
She was 18 but looked 16
And told me she was 23

Valerie who hated money
Stuck me to the sheets with honey
Caroline from Amsterdam
Took off with some other band
Megan, Kim and the rest
I love you all and that's the test
If I wake up in time
How will I make up my mind

100 girls or maybe more
Who left me passed out on the floor
I know it might be wrong
I had to write this song
For 100 girls and hundreds more
Who left me passed out on the floor
I know it might be wrong
I had to write this song
For 100 girls, and hundreds more

Stroke 9 - Vacuum Bag

You'll never know what happened to me
It's just one of those things
I was sitting by myself
And my thoughts started pouring out
Remember that time on our trip
You asked me where we were going
I said Barcelona
You said that's not what I meant
Maybe I'll never get it
I just don't think I'm like that
Don't like planning stuff out
It never happens that way

I'm like a vacuum bag
That holds all that old dirt
Remember that time we found your mom's Valium and took it?

Don't hate me
don't regret me
don't ever forget me
Wherever you go
whatever you do
don't say I never loved you

That summer when we wore no shoes
And we danced on the Fourth of July
And we listened to your sister's records
And Frampton came alive
Even then you knew what you wanted
Even then I had no clue
I was just living in the moment
And the moment was all about you
Remember that time in LA
You asked me what we were doing
I said we're doing fine
You said here we go again

I'm like a vacuum bag
That holds all that old dirt
Remember that time we said we'd be together forever?

Don't hate me
don't regret me
don't ever forget me
Wherever you go
whatever you do
don't say I never loved you

'Cause it matters to me
Can you hear me?
Everyday I ask the same thing

Will you ever know what happened to me?
It happens everyday
And you wonder what went on
It's there and then it's gone
Maybe I'm sentimental
And I start to reminisce
And every time I do
I still want to tell you this

Don't hate me
don't regret me
don't ever forget me
Wherever you go
whatever you do
don't say I never loved you

Stroke 9 - Kick Some Ass

How many people wanna kick some ass?

I used to be a nerd - Grew up in the suburbs
Nothing there ever went wrong - I made it up in this song
I talk about the hood - I say stuff like "It's all good"
Tell people I'm down with All the cool kids downtown
When I've never even been there.....

How many people wanna kick some ass? (I do, I do)
And how many people sick of holding it back? (I am) Well I am, too
So don't lay another finger on her
She's mine and I still want her
If you put your hands upon her
Youre a goner - goner
And how many people sick of holding it back? (I am I am)
And how many people wanna kick some ass? I would if I could
But I'm really just a sensitive artist - Perpertrated like I am the hardest

So spin your cap around to the back - You think you rhyme but you can't rap
Loosen that strap a little more - Until your axe hits the floor
Flip off your fans, and make them cheer - Try to look sincere
Anger's today's fashion
So sing another song about bashing someone's head in

How many people wanna kick some ass? (I do I do)
And how many people sick of holding it back? (I am) Well I am, too
So, don't lay another finger on her
She's mine and I still want her
If you put your hands upon her
Youre a goner - goner
And how many people sick of holding it back? (I am I am)
How many people wanna kick some ass? I would if I could
But I'm really just a sensitive artist, Perpertrated like I am the hardest
Acting like I'm not the smartest, I'm really just a sensitive artist

Awwww.... yeah!

So don't lay another finger on her
She's mine and I still want her
If you put your hands upon her
Youre a goner - goner

And how many people sick of holding it back? (I am I am)
And How many people wanna kick some ass?

I said, How many people wanna kick some ass?
How many people wanna kick some ass?
What're you gonna do when you're sick of holding it back?
I think I'll kick some ass

How many people wanna kick some ass? I would if I could
But I'm really just a sensitive artist Perpertrated like I am the hardest
Acting like I'm not the smartest But I'm really just a sensitive artist

...honest.

Stroke 9 - Don't Worry

Well it's hard to say what's on someone's mind
If a woman looks mean she might really be kind
She's smart, well dressed
Smells good, likes sex
But you can't get over her, can't get past her
Can't get around your last disaster
Let it go while your pride's intact
Don't vow to get her back

Look there, you wonder where
You blew that one and now you care
But when you walk around
You think you see her everywhere

Don't worry you'll find her
It's just a little reminder (x2)

Just when you think that you're over something
One little sight it rushes like lightning
Then it's on, then it's off
Then you're sad, then you're not

But you wanna go for her, want to impress her
But can't get past her predocesser
You workin' through it, then ya know
The radio plays a song and brings her back

Look there she's everywhere
You can't escape, it's just not fair
And you still walk around
With that stupid blinding stare

Don't worry you'll find her
It's just a little reminder
Don't worry you'll find her
You're right behind her

You think you know what life's about
You're lucky now, you're lucky now
You think you know what love's about
You'll work it out

Stroke 9 - Just Can't Wait

Another summer coming with the feeling it brings
Another reason to avoid all the permanent things
Before you know what time it is, it's time to go
And reattach all the strings
But you got me going in so many places
You got to be nowhere with that look on my face

I just can't wait
I just can't wait
I just can't wait for you to say
That you want me
That you want me
I just can't wait for you to say that you want me

Well you need sunlight for things to go right
It just takes a taste, you know
Every single bit of love that I spread
Is coming straight for you
Would be it all right to go out tonight?
It doesn't matter where we go
You're the only one that I want to be near
And try to get to know
'Cause you got eyes that I would love to look through
A life that I can't wait to get into

I just can't wait
I just can't wait
I just can't wait for you to say
That you want me
That you want me
I just can't wait for you to say that you want me
As long as I can see what you see
As long as it's what you believe

Feeling all alone in my little head again
It feels so good just to sit and take it in
Back home in my big bed again
You're gone and I'm spent
But wherever you are I want to be
I can't stop thinking about what you did to me

Stroke 9 - Do It Again

You're instantly awake in my imagination
Old-fashioned infatuation
I can be anything that you want me to be
And you can have me in every position that you dreamed

I know you've got a wild streak
You're a freak
You're alone
In your bed
With graphic images in your head

Let me do what I want to do with you
Let me tie you down, pick you up
And flip you all around
Let me tell you how sexy you are
As I'm goin' down on you in the car
If feelin' this good is a sin
Let's do it all over again
Do it all over again
Do it

Just when I thought this might get boring
Wake me up in the morning by pouring
Honey on my body and licking it off
You're taking me to concerts
And you're taking off your top

I know you've got a wild streak
You're a freak
Then you're back in our room
With a bride and a groom

Well, this is it
This is great
This is what I always wanted
Where do we go from here?
That's the question of the year
I think you're fine
I think you're hot
This is what I always dreamed of
The one thing I forgot
Was to get to know you

You're instantly awake in my imagination
Old-fashioned infatuation
I can be anything that you want me to be
And you can have me in every position that you dreamed

I know you've got a wild streak
You're a freak
You're alone
In your bed
With graphic images in your head

Stroke 9 - We Were Wrong

Well I'm singing this song as loud as I can
As I drive too fast with my best friend
I don't wonder if you're wondering where I am
Cause I don't care if I ever see you again

Well I'm sick of being compared to what you had before
I'm sick of being what you don't want anymore
I'm sick of being used, bruised, and ignored
Because that's just not what friends are for

You were wrong
For me you were so wrong
I'd only come over to get it on
Well I've got to admit that it's time to move on

Don't give me shit, don't give me lip
Don't make me lose my grip on everything that I've known all along

Well I wasted two years trying to make you mine
Then I wasted two more as I missed every sign
That you weren't what you seemed like you were which is fine
Cause I don't know who I am most of the time
But what I do know I can't show for fear that I'll throw it away
Like every word that you say
Like all the things that you're saving for a rainy day
And all the times that you wouldn't have it any other way

I was wrong
For you I was so wrong
You'd only come over to get it on
but you gotta admit
It's time to move on

Don't give me shit, don't give me lip
Don't make me lose my grip on everything
that I've known all along

Don't cross the line, don't lose your mind
You showed me all the signs that your not the one
Cause I've known all along
That it's time to move on

Well it's the day before our last day together
We realize it wasn't meant to last
We used to think that it would be forever
But we never thought forever'd go this fast
And now we're singing this song as loud as we can
As we drive too fast again and again
I don't wonder cause now I know where we stand
And I don't care if I ever see you again

We were wrong, all along we were just wrong
All along we were just wrong
So Wrong
We were goin' strong
But we were wrong

Don't give me shit, don't give me lip
Don't make me lose my grip on everything
that I've known all along

Don't cross the line, don't lose your mind
You showed me all the signs that your not the one
Cause I've known all along
That it's time to move on
{repeat}

Stroke 9 - Reject

No one tastes like you
And no one wastes me with their words like you do
No one can change my views like you
Do

Do you really think I wanted this to fail?
Do you really think this crazy world'll get better?
Do you really think this crazy world'll get better?

No one tastes like you
And no one wastes me with their words like you do
Nothing is between us is assumed
And no one can change the fact that I was sold on you

I'm the reject that you never accepted
I'm the reject that you always neglected
I'm the reject that you never accepted
Now I'm left wrecked and forever affected

There's nothing left to do
There's nothing left to say
No more words
I miss all the things you do
There's no
Excuse

Do you really think I wanted this to fail?
Do you really think this crazy world'll get better?
Do you really think this crazy world will get better?

I'm the reject that you never accepted
I'm the reject that you always neglected
I'm the reject that you never accepted
I'm the reject that you always neglected
Now I'm left wrecked and forever affected

You know when I'm all alone
There's nothing else I can say
There's no one else I can pay anymore

Stroke 9 - Anywhere

Everyday something new comes my way
That helps me get through, the past
Anyway I can't say how long I've been away
I feel I'm home at last
I'm aware there's something around me
Saving me, protecting me, that won't let me crash
Everyday something new comes my way
And I feel at home, feel at home, at last

Anywhere is everywhere
And I don't care
As long as I can feel this is real
Then I'm not scared to let you in
Everywhere is far from there
As long as this is real
And when you're gone
I won't feel this good again

Anytime I can say what's on my mind
And remember how good things have been
I relax and reattach to the past
And we feel like one again
It erases all the cares in our away
And we feel like one, feel like one again

Feel this good again
Feel this good
Feel this good again
Feel this good

Stroke 9 - Lead The Way

Well she says she's got it figured it out
She thinks its getting better
I don't believe this and I'm never gonna get her
Well she says she's strong
I say she's crazy
She says I'm wrong
And I say well maybe

When she's lying on the floor
And she can't take no more
She knows the word to this one

You lead the way
You lead the way
You lead the way
Away from here

Well there's a conversation that's never gonna happen
It's about a relationship
And we're sitting there laughing
She thinks she's strong
Well I think she's crazy
She thinks I'm wrong
And I say well maybe

When she's lying on floor
And she can't take no more
She knows the word to this one
I sympathize with what she's in
It's face the music time again
She looks to me to sing along

Stroke 9 - California

I can't change how
Feelings will be shown
Don't blame you
You're nervous on your own
Propose the worst and I'm the first in line
Despite the rest it's not a bad sign

You mean the world to mean
And
The city and my soul disagree
Last time round fast
I'll see you on the way down
Life's a funny thing
And you can't bring yourself to face it if you want to

Now I shake here
For your sake dear
I was raised and I was born here
I couldn't leave California if I tried to

I can't say it now
Where I'm going to go
When I figure it out
You'll be the first to know
Do you understand that it's out of these hands of mine?
Despite our plans I've got to draw the line

And you still mean the world to mean and
The city and my soul disagree
Last time round fast
I'll see you on the way down
Life's a funny thing
And you can't bring yourself to face it if you want to

Now I shake here
For your sake dear
I was raised and I was born here
I couldn't leave California if I tried to
If I tried to
If I tried to
If I tried to

I can't change how feelings will be shown
Don't blame you
You're nervous on your own
Propose the worst and I'm the first in line

Last time round fast
I'll see you on the way down
Life's a funny thing
And you can't bring yourself to face it if you want to

Now I shake here
For your sake dear
I was raised and I was born here
I couldn't leave California if I tried to
