Concrete Trampoline Lyrics
Where's My
Winnie Cooper
Winnie Cooper where have you been
Have you been breaking hearts of boys and men?
Let's go out and drink some wine
I haven't seen you in long long time
(long long time)
CHORUS
Cause I'm just a lonely punk
I go out (and booze) and I get drunk
Other girls they catch my eye
My heart stops and I wanna die
Winnie Cooper
It's been 2 years and you look great
I'd be first one to hesitate
I'd say that you have looks that kill
So we can go have our thrills
CHORUS
Cause I'm just a lonely punk
I go out (and booze) and I get drunk
It's times like these that their all right
When I see the girls that are way outta sight
Winnie Cooper (Winnie Cooper)
Winnie Cooper (Winnie Cooper)
Winnie Cooper
Whoa
Winnie Cooper (Winnie)
Winnie Cooper (Cooper)
Winnie Cooper
Whoa
Friday Night
It’s Friday night, it’s 4 A.M.
It’s Friday night I can’t sleep again
I pass the time as I paint the town red
This town at this hour is rather dead
Walking down the street to the corner of High
To all my friends I want to say goodbye
I need something ‘cause I can’t think
To all my friends let’s have another drink
CHORUS
Whoa oh oh
(It’s Friday night and I’m gonna go)
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
It’s Friday night
I just smoked my last cigarette
I need something that’s gonna clear my head
I’m walking around and I gotta get out
Gotta get out of this one-horse town
Cheers to you and cheers to me
This place ain’t what it used to be
There’s no cars no one site
Whatever’s left is what I’m leaving behind
It’s Friday night, it’s 4 A.M.
It’s Friday night I can’t sleep again
I’m sick of all the same old shit
Building something new better count my bricks
Walking down the street to the corner of High
To all my friends I want to say goodbye
I need something ‘cause I can’t think
To all my friends let’s have one last drink
Nothing To Lose
I’m losing my faith in life
My faith in humanity
And the worst part of all
Is that I know that it starts with me
I only got one shot
So I gotta make this one count
Cause I got nothing
Nothing to lose
CHORUS
I sit here by myself
And I wonder what went wrong
Cause I got nothing
Nothing to lose
I’m tired of playing games
Self righteous insanity
Say the words I want to hear
While you shut the door on me
Some things aren’t meant to be
Disgrace honesty
You gave me nothing
Nothing to lose
CHORUS
I got no where to go
And I wonder what went wrong
Cause I got nothing
Nothing to lose
Non Compos Mentis
Here I am alone again
Thinking about it now and then
I am running and hiding away from me
Leave me alone just let me be
Take it easy yeah easy for you to say
Living my life is the price that I gotta pay
That’s fucking funny you want to give me a hand
I can’t remember when you really gave a damn
CHORUS
Breaking bashing everything I got
Listen here you bastard snot
Society fears itself
But don’t hesitate to attack the commonwealth
Why am I like this why are you like this
Why are we so like this
Yeah, I just think by brain needs some time
But whoever said crazy was called a crime
Some of the others yeah they call me insane
It’s a merry-go-round until they felt the pain
I’m troubled with disconfusion stolen by a thief
Energetics with their vaccinated disbelief
It’s all good and happy in my mind
You’ll be the one to say that it’s not
Yesterday
Can you tell me where to go from here
What I didn't know I know now
Now I know that I can't go back
And feel the way I felt back then
CHORUS
I wanna go back right now
Can’t you take me back somehow
I wanna go back right now
Can’t you take me back somehow
Transformers, GI Joe
Only things we cared to know
Under the South School tree
County fair, First Town Days
A-Team, Airwolf, football games
Meant so much to me
Saturn
My girlfriend she treats me well
Holds my hand and walks through hell
Then she smiles at me and everything she does is all right
She goes deep within my soul
Turns me into a big black hole
Then she lies to me so sweetly I believe I love her
CHORUS
What it takes, my heart aches
Eyes are blinded by the sun
Love you so and I don’t know
Why Saturn’s crashing down on me
My best friend I call him Joe
Treats me like his only bro
It’s his apathy and treachery that I admire most
My best friend he treats me right
Stays at her house overnight
Between my shoulder blades I hope the knife wound doesn’t leave a scar
CHORUS
My mind’s gone now it’s on
Motherfucker you’ll get what you deserve
I trusted you and I got screwed
Now Saturn’s crashing down on me
She calls me from her bed
Uses me to ease her head
Dirty trick she plays she tells me that she really gives a damn
My girlfriend she treats me great
Takes me to the pearly gates
They open from within and Satan’s grin it goes from ear to ear
CHORUS
What it takes, my heart aches
Eyes are blinded by the sun
Love you so and I don’t know
Why Saturn’s crashing down on me
My fool heart bleeds, it’s you I need
Eyes are blinded by the sun
My sanity you took from me
Now Saturn’s crashing down on me
Brady’s Song
No matter how hard I try
It always ends up the same way
They'll look you straight in the eye
And then they'll walk away
I try not to let it bother me
Some guys they always get their way
Whatever girls want they get
Then they throw it all away
CHORUS
I give up and I don't care anymore
This game is fixed and I don't believe
Then I wake up and it hits me
Girls never go for guys like me
Is it too much to ask for affection
No commitment, just a connection
Then I wake up and it hits me
Girls never go for guys like me
You don't understand what's in my head
First impressions are only what you see
It's a shame you won't give me a chance
Might be surprised of who I turn out to be
Doesn't love matter anymore
You gave me shit then you showed me the door
Physical possessions and popularity
These all become your priority
Heartbreaks & Headaches
I can’t drink the beer
I can’t drink the wine
I’m lost in myself and I miss you all the time
Say…
I realize you have different feelings
But I have trouble dealing
With you pushing me away
I’m down and out on strike three
Please realize that we weren’t meant to be
I hope things work out some way
CHORUS
I can’t drink the beer
I can’t drink the wine
I’m lost in myself and I miss you all the time
Say…
Why can’t we go back where we used to be?
Why can’t we go back when you still loved me?
Do you remember all the times we shared?
I wish I knew what makes you so scared
Please come back to me today
All of this seems so unfair
But it all can be so repaired
The damage done this way
(CHORUS)
I never thought you would hurt me
My face is shoved in the dirt you see
And until you say that you’ll stay...
Please put me out of existence
Because none of this makes any sense
And until you say that you’ll stay...
(CHORUS)
Gold Digger
Put out for jewelry
There’s nothing for free
You’re nothing but trouble
So stay away from me
Look at my pretty hair
Look at my tan skin
Money’s what matters
And my patience is wearing thin
CHORUS
Give her your credit card
Your life savings too
She gets what she wants
And pretty soon your screwed
Gold digger, how’d you figure
Well it makes me mad
Gold digger she gets richer
When she treats you like that
Mullet Town
The 80’s called they want their hair
back, dude
What the hell are you trying to prove?
Mud flaps and feathered hair
I can smell Aquanet in the air
CHORUS
Mullet Man, Mullet Man
We hate you
Mullet Man, Mullet Man
We hate you
Mullet Man, Mullet Man
I like your do
Mullet Man, Mullet Man
We hate you
Dirt-lipped cronies
Your girl’s missing teeth
High tops and pegged pants
Pretty neat (yeah right)
Bitchin’ Camaro and your 4x4
With the rebel flag stuck on the door
Comb in the back with a can of Skoal
Don’t you know glam rock isn’t cool
Business up front and a party in the back
Business party
10 90
Dejected
I can see you running from me
You can’t choose who you want to be
Your apathy is making me bleed
You ignore the truth and deny everything
CHORUS
It seems so very clear
Not what you want to hear
Rejected who I am
Now I don’t know just who to be
You stole from me my identity
Was our love just a fantasy?
Your friends are shit and you will eventually be
Speechless
I see you across the room
And I notice that you don’t notice me
And I know that I don’t know
All the things that make you do what you do to me
CHORUS
It’s obvious we’re not meant to be
I only want what I can’t have
But this attraction seems to get the best of me
And I don’t have a thing to say
Hearts taken moods shaken
What keeps us from always being let down
I’ve given up and you live it up
I know the answer before I even ask the question
I see you across the room
And I notice you still don’t notice me
And I know that I’ll never know
What it’s like to even know your name
(chorus)
What kills is that I’ll never know
NO REGRET
Thought was in my head
Be better in the end
Accept that it's the way
Forgetting all my dreams
Sick of paying dues
Just trying to hold on
Restricted by the fit of the mold
That has been made for me
CHORUS
Don't compromise your happiness
Or settle for anything less
I know that I'm the only one
Who can live my life with no regret
Going down the road
Of predictability
Will be safe and guaranteed
To be unfulfilling
Waking up to find
Misplaced memories
Of the person that I am
And the one that I am supposed to be
Thought is in my head
Be better in the end
Accepting no one's way
I've remembered all my dreams
Live for here and now
Because tomorrow may not come
Avoid the status quo
And be who you want to be
Hollywood Idles
Obsessed with fortune obsessed with fame
Blinded by glamour have you no shame?
It's on the TV it's all on the news
Preoccupation with celebrity shoes
Hardworking honest American man
Selling his soul for some tape in a can
Media has painted pictures of gods
Held in esteem by academy nods
CHORUS
Red carpets, bright lights
Your role models are not right
Big city premiere
Priorities are being queered by your
Idols (Hollywood)
Idols (Hollywood)
Idols (Hollywood)
I don't want your autograph
I'm a person just like you
Waiting for hours for a souvenir
A picture or autograph or just to be near
West coast Olympus' new royal family
How pathetic could our society be?
CHORUS
I'm human like the rest of you
Stand up be counted get your just due
We're all together on this planet too
Success doesn't make someone better than you
TV and movies have now come to be
The throne of the world's new royalty
Pray to your new gods the media boxes
While leaders of networks' master plans are concocted
CHORUS
DEGENERATION
Not gonna lie
Not gonna say
not gonna sit back one more day
all of this nothin' more I can take
all of this makes me insane and..
CHORUS
I'm not buyin' what you have got to $ell
whats your story?..is it worth to tell?
a little confusion on what I wanna say
My Generation...is not for $ale
Do what I want .. not like you
all the magazines don't like my point of view
not a role model ... make no mistake
if there's one thing that I cant fake its..
Chorus
Not gonna lie...Not gonna say
not gonna sit back one more day
all of this nothin' more I can take
all of this makes me insane and..
Chorus
TWENTY - SEVEN
I remember the first time that I heard your first song it was a
such a long time ago but then you introduced me to a
a different side of me that I never knew existed
I'd like to thank you for that but I never got that chance yet
CHORUS
Walk away
Fortune and fame
They say the stars that burn so bright
tend to fade away fast
you'd rather go out with a bang
instead of fading away
I remember the first time that I heard your first song it was a
such a long time ago I'd like to thank you for that
but you went and shot yourself dead
Chorus
I remember the first time that I heard your first song it was a
such a long time ago but then you introduced me to a
different side of me that I never knew existed
I'd like to thank you for that but I never got that chance yet
Chorus
