1.	I Found Someone That I Hate More Than You 03:16	lyrics	buy track
Good to see you, enemy You used to mean so much to me Ah, ah Ah, ah Focused on your treachery But I’m all outta energy Yeah, you might be a crook But I guess you’re off the hook I found someone that I hate more than you now I found someone that I hate more than you now I didn’t think it was possible, but somehow I found someone that I hate more than you And I really hate you, so Na na na na na na, na-ah na na Na na na na na na, na-ah na na Na na na na na na, na-ah na na Na na na na na na, na na na I don’t miss your company But I’ve had this epiphany You’ve lost all your infamy To someone else’s toxicity You’re still a piece of shit But it’s time that I admit I found someone that I hate more than you now I found someone that I hate more than you now I didn’t think it was possible, but somehow- I found someone that I hate more than you And I really hate you, so But I hate someone more! Na na na na na na But I hate someone more! But I hate someone more! But I hate someone more! Oh didn’t you hear, darling? You’re yesterday’s recipient of The Most Loathed and Loathsome If I saw you whilst vacationing in Marseille, I would simply not give you the time of day. Away…away…
2.	Ring Pop 04:18	lyrics	buy track
Thirty five, damn you’re old Another year without a hand to hold We had a meeting, took a poll Diagnosis - no self control Mind’s open, think it’s gonna happen She’s playing with your hair, while sitting in his lap and Self lies are the longest cons The signs you were seeing were octagons You gotta stop falling in love with potential ‘Cause potential is only potential Stop falling in love with potential ‘Cause potential is only potential So easy to fall for a fantasy When you only see what you wanna see Stop falling in love with potential ‘Cause potential is only potential We sat down and we discussed - These delusions of devotion are dangerou- S So take your pills and kill the lust Before you implode or combust to dust (You keep doing it, so you must like it You keep doing it, you must like pain) Eyes open, didn’t see it coming Thought you were dancing, but she was just running Self lies are the longest cons The signs you were seeing were octagons You gotta stop falling in love with potential ‘Cause potential is only potential Stop falling in love with potential ‘Cause potential is only potential So easy to fall for a fantasy When you only see what you wanna see Stop falling in love with potential ‘Cause potential is only potential All this dreamin’ has turned existential Get a romance that comes with credentials I’m falling in love and it’s all my fault It’s all my fault that I’m falling in love ‘Cause potential is only potential She says hello, I hear I love you She says goodbye, I’ll see her soon She asks for time, I’ll say 8:30 Buy her a Ring Pop, we’ll say “I do” She says hello, I hear I love you She says goodbye, I’ll see her soon She asks for time, I’ll say 8:30 Thirty Thirty Thirty… Thirty five, this is sad A one night stand’s the best you’ve ever had (Jesus Fucking Christ) Time’s nope-in’ never gonna be Sweet nothings were nothing but empty calories Self-lies are the cruelest cons The signs you were seeing are octa- Gone gone gone! You gotta stop falling in love with potential ‘Cause potential is only potential Stop falling in love with potential ‘Cause potential is only potential So easy to fall for a fantasy When you only see what you wanna see Stop falling in love with potential ‘Cause potential is only potential I’m falling in love and it’s all my fault It’s all my fault that I’m falling in love (repeat) She says hello, I hear I love you She says goodbye, I’ll see her soon She asks for time, I’ll say 8:30 Buy her a Ring Pop, we’ll say “I do” I do.

This fire has made liar Pour me another, I'll burn to the brim It's all a ruse to become your rouge For I could slink beneath your skin What's that I see, is that blush for me Oh how we could live deliciously We don't know what we don't know Would you like to know me When I'm dreaming, every thought is screaming When I'm sleeping, hanging on the telephone When I'm drinking, find that I am thinking How can I get you alone When you're preening, is there hidden meaning That shade of red selected You always have done just so But I just have to know how Far off your lips it can go I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna Excess to thumb A perfect, delectable plum So I'll invite you over For some crimson and clover But it's alright if you don't wanna come Swimming in doubt, what's that look about Open your mouth, spit it out A glance or a gaze, I'll wonder for days I'll wonder for days, I'll wonder, wonder Was that too much, was it not enough If I asked nicely, could I fuck you up Just a nick of your lips, could I take a sip Just the smallest of sips, I can't take it, take it When I'm dreaming, every thought is screaming When I'm sleeping, hanging on the telephone When I'm drinking, find that I am thinking How can I get you alone When you're preening, is there hidden meaning That shade of red selected You always have done just so But I just have to know how Far off your lips it can go I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna mess up your makeup I wanna Excess to thumb A perfect, delectable plum So I'll invite you over For crimson and clover But it's alright if you don't wanna come It was a night much like any other night Darkness...stars...and shit I was standing at a bar And so was this dame At the other end of the bar The other end of the bar that I was At the other end of She looks at me And I look at her And then That's it Nothing happened I didn't wanna seem pervy And I didn't wanna ruin her night With a potentially unwanted interaction So I took my leave And went home To watch episodes of The Nanny With my cat Anyway, you can play the next song now
4.	Is There Anybody Here (Who Isn't An Asshole)? 04:54	lyrics	buy track
Your words were a heart graze Hitting me sideways That wasn’t the way that I wanted to fall The lips from my daydreams Curled into cold screams The girl that you seemed to be, you’re not her at all I had high hopes for you With cards on the table, I took an appraisal A look at the character under the sheen And so I discovered We shouldn’t be lovers And I’d have to Homer back into the green ‘Cause you’re mean I had high hopes for you You disappoint me with that attitude You’re so rude Is there anybody…? Is there anybody here…? Is there anybody…? Is there anybody here…? Is there anybody…? Is there anybody here…? Is there anybody…? Is there anybody here who isn’t an asshole? Is there anybody here who isn’t an asshole? Is there anybody here who isn’t Doth my ears deceive me? Or did you really just say that to my face? Thought that you could be good for me Now to lose faith in the human race…again. It’s just another Tuesday. They’re playing the loser And he’s just a user She claims to be psychic, she never could see But if I’m looking around here And assholes are found here Then maybe the asshole has always been me This is the company I keep Is there anybody…? Is there anybody here…? Is there anybody…? Is there anybody here…? Is there anybody…? Is there anybody here…? Is there anybody…? Is there anybody here who isn’t an asshole? Is there anybody here who isn’t an asshole? Is there anybody here who isn’t an asshole? A dickwad, a douche bag, a real jag Who isn’t an asshole, a dickwad, a douche bag, a real jag Who isn’t an asshole A dickwad, a douche bag, a real jag Who isn’t an asshole, a dickwad, a douche bag, a real jag Who isn’t an asshole I had high hopes for you
5.	Burbank Cowboy 03:44	lyrics	buy track
Home home on the range down by Riverside I heard her trot up and she asked me if I wanna ride I was late for work at Double You Bee Studios She tipped her hat and tapped her lap and said “Let’s go.” I wondered if she was a stuntman or actor But she engaged in only pre-talkies banter Nothing but smiles as we galloped through traffic Heart racing ‘gainst a wranglin’ sapphic Burbank Cowboy Stallion of the screen, riding through my dreams Will she ever see what she means to me? Burbank Cowboy Watch her set the scene, equine fantasies I forgot to breathe! Could she ever be my… Tall gates were no match for her country steed We stormed the lot like a stampede The set fell to chaos, the director aghast As we crashed his fancy Western with an all British cast I wondered was this gonna cost me my livin’ As she roped the actor who was playing the villain But we yee’d our haw’s all over the grounds Making something real outta Tinseltown Burbank Cowboy Stallion of the screen, riding through my dreams Will she ever see what she means to me? Burbank Cowboy Watch her set the scene, equine fantasies I forgot to breathe! Could she ever be my… Knights in shining armor You can’t make me swoon Here beside my girl Bet she could lasso down the moon Don’t wake me from this dream too soon Burbank Cowboy Stallion of the screen, riding through my dreams Will she ever see what she means to me? Burbank Cowboy Fly above the trees, like the end of Grease I forgot to breathe! Could she ever be my Burbank Cowboy Soaring through the stars, outer space is ours Who’d’ve ever THUNK that we’d get this far? Burbank Cowboy Love won’t let me freeze Watch her kiss on me I don’t need to breathe! Could she ever be my… Don’t wake me from this dream too soon
6.	Radio Silence 06:02	lyrics	buy track
I talk in circles and I walk in squares How will I ever really know how she got me there With all this radio silence? With all the radio silence? We keep on burning through the 1's and 2's How will I ever really know what I was to do With all this radio silence? Can't take the radio silence Wires, lines crossed Lip service, no cost It's not very frequently I find you on the same frequency Time, lives lost All courtesy tossed Find that I am bound by my erstwhile Still hoping for a sound when I turn the dial I talk in circles and I walk in squares How will I ever really know how she got me there With all this radio silence With all the radio silence We keep on burning through the 1's and 2's How will I ever really know what I was to do With all this radio silence Can't take the radio silence Somnambulizards are making their move These dream thieves have an appetite for your reveries Concocting a calamitous crime against humanity Their melatonal melodies will siren you into a ceaseless, serene slumber Dreamers beware Your nocturnal fantasies could be their next amuse bouche Sleep tight...don't let the reptaliens bite Wires, lines crossed Lip service, no cost It's not very frequently I find you on the same frequency Time, lives lost All courtesy tossed Find that I am bound by my erstwhile Still hoping for a sound when I turn the dial I talk in circles and I walk in squares How will I ever really know how she got me there With all this radio silence With all the radio silence We keep on burning through the 1's and 2's How will I ever really know what I was to do With all this radio silence Can't take the radio silence I don't really find it peaceful I don't really find it nice Holding out for two words, three syllables Your line went dead in paradise I don't really find it peaceful I don't really find it nice Holding out for two words, three syllables Your line went dead in paradise I don't really find it peaceful Me voy bailar sin ti Bound by erstwhile No sound when I turn the dial Bound by erstwhile No sound when I turn the dial Bound by erstwhile No sound when I turn the dial Bound by erstwhile No sound when I turn the dial Bound by erstwhile No sound when I turn the dial Bound by erstwhile No sound when I turn the dial Bound by erstwhile No sound when I turn the dial Bound by erstwhile No sound when I turn the dial
7.	About That Night... 04:06	lyrics	buy track
I can’t erase you When I can still taste you on the tip of my tongue And I can’t replace you Though I’ve tried and tried, the goodbye is buried deep in my lungs When all was said And all was done I knew I’d never be the one But it ain’t done I still think about that night, how about you? Oh, I never came to. Much better to dream and hear you whisper to me. ‘Cause I couldn’t claim to Make any better decisions when my mind is working consciously When you close your eyes do you see Anything that takes you back to me? Cause when I close my eyes, all I do Is think about that night, do you? When all was said And all was done I knew I’d never be the one But it ain’t done I still think about that night, how about you? When you close your eyes do you see Anything that takes you back to me? Cause when I close my eyes, all I do Is think about that night, do you? When all was said And all was done I knew I’d never be the one But it ain’t done I still think about that night, how about you? I still think about that night, how about you?
8.	Fun But Not Forever 04:47	lyrics	buy track
Wasn’t gonna say this, but here goes ‘Cause anything on my mind finds its way to show On the face that you traced with your lips many moons ago So do you know Oh do you know - It’s the gleam in your eye that takes me It’s the ease of goodbye that shakes me It’s the casual wave that breaks me It’s the lingering crave that makes me Something borrowed, something blue But I just wanna be with you It’s a lie when I say that I’m Happy to have fun, but not forever We can be fun, but not forever In every life, I’d choose you every time Still we call it “fun” but not forever We can have fun, but not forever Wasn’t gonna call you, you called me Told myself a trillion times I’d do this differently I’d be perfect and spacious and handle us graciously But, if you knew me Oh, then you’d see - It’s the gleam in your eye that takes me It’s the ease of goodbye that shakes me It’s the casual wave that breaks me How can you carry on? It’s a lie when I say that I’m Happy to have fun, but not forever We can be fun, but not forever In every life, I’d choose you every time Still we call it “fun” but not forever We can have fun, but not forever So kind and so lovely You’re floating above me Never quite safe enough to ground Watching from cold seas The fantasy holds me Just high enough so that I don’t drown It’s a high that I’d swear to But it wouldn’t be fair to Hold you to devil-may-cares ‘Cause loving me scares you I wish I could dare you But honey, that’s not my cross to bear Stuck to you like summer Slipped under your covers In a box marked ‘other’ Saved for your next lover It’s a lie when I say that I’m Happy to have fun, but not forever We can be fun, but not forever In every life, I’d choose you every time Still we call it “fun” but not forever We can have fun, but not forever We can have fun, but not forever We can have fun, but not forever Why can’t we have fun for forever?
9.	Make You Breakfast 04:40	lyrics	buy track
All I wanna do is make you breakfast All I wanna do is say you’re fine All I wanna do is clean the messes All I wanna do is make you mine All I wanna do is watch the walls peel All I wanna do is pass the time All I wanna do is know how you feel ‘Cause all I wanna do is make you mine In the daytime All I wanna do is place the napkins All I wanna do is tie your shoes All I wanna do is fetch the paper ‘Cause you’re always my good news Even when you’re in the blues You’re always my good news All I wanna do is make you breakfast Hushed, so you can sleep past nine All I wanna do is press your dresses All I wanna do is make you mine All I wanna do is pop the pastilles All I wanna do is kiss the bruise ‘Cause you’re always my good news Even when you’re in the blues You’re always my good news
