travel bug

A few days, just a few.
It’s all I wanted but now it just won’t do.
I’ve got some things to do.
Booking flights this don’t include.
But I can’t sit.
Oh no. I can’t stand,
until I’ve figured out my travel plans.
I blame the travel bug.
Oh, all that wanderlust.
Yeah, by plane or sea or bus,
I’m not coming home today.
Passport stamps - I want them all.
Rome, Finland, don’t forget Japan.
New Zealand, I want you.
I’ve got some things to do.
Booking flights this don’t include.
Reading Conda Nast won’t change my past.
When I don’t know
what to do, well that’s my cue.
I blame the travel bug.
Oh, all that wanderlust.
Yeah, by plane or sea or bus,
I’m not coming home today.
No matter the place
I’m happy to live out of my suitcase.
And that’s true.
But I’ve got some things to do.
Booking flights this don’t include.
Reminded all around how
I wanna skip town. I never
feel home unless I roam.

With no expectations
while out that night.
Birthdays happen all the time.
You said something witty
so I stole your line.
Then you never left my mind.
Doe-si-doe
here we go.
With no time wasted
I found you online.
Hoping I could make you mine.
You think I’m silly,
but I think you’re fine.
You could be my partner in crime.
Doe-si-doe
here we go.
It just kinda happened
late that night.
Ooh, and now I want you all the time.
It could all be so simple.
Why make things hard?
And then we’ll never be apart.
Doe-si-doe
here we go.

Mr. Mister

Mr. Mister, don’t call me ma’am.
Oh, Mr. Mister, don’t you know who I am?
I’ll make your coffee or I’ll bring you tea.
But that don’t mean you can get with me.
Whatever I do, I’m dressed in black.
Hold your horses, I’ll be right back.
I’ll take your order with paper and pen.
Breakfast’s over and lunch had began.
We got some specials, if you check on the board.
But stay away from the Soup de Jour.
I’ve heard it all now,
what you’re asking ain’t new.
No my number’s not on the menu.
Whatever you do, please don’t do that.
Whatever you do, please don’t do that.
When I walked away, I flashed a fake smile.
So no I don’t want to hang for a while.
Here’s your bill. Are you ready to pay?
Here’s your change, now please go away.
Whatever you do, please don’t do that.
Whatever you do, please don’t do that.

|

Get yourself some more
whatever you want.
Whatever I am.
I just hang around.
And that brings me down.
You bring me down.
Now I'm watching you
with your photograph I hit the gas.
Everything that you say is better at night.
is prettier than I
really am.
I think I'm the chosen few. What am
I to do? Just say I will.
But I'm watching you
with your photograph I hit the gas.
Oh Charlie please do it for me.
Yeah yeah yeah and for everyone.
And I know. Boy it seems like
I wasted my time.
And I know. Oh I know, boy
it seems like I wasted my time.
Seems like I wasted my whole life with all the
wrong fools ‘cause you're my world.
While you're laughing I say aloud, that
I'm so proud to have you as my friend.
Now I'm watching you
with your photograph I hit the gas.
Oh Charlie please do it for me.
Yeah yeah yeah and for everyone.

fee-fie-foe-fum
02:26
|

On a calm summer day
hanging out just wasting away.
How I love the holidays!
Brought myself to the shelf,
grabbed a book, think I’ll take
a look. That was all it took.
I hear a fee-fie-foe-fum.
I’m not scared,
but I guess I better run.
I hear you after me.
I won’t die of curiosity.
Grind my bones to make you bread,
some things should be left unsaid.
You have a castle in the sky, but
you’re not a nice.
No, you’re not a nice guy.
Next thing I know day is night.
Please don’t, don’t turn off the light.
Cause I’ll have a big fright.
Clutching my pillowcase I look to the end
of the room into an empty space.
I think I see your face.
I hear a fee-fie-foe-fum.
I’m not scared,
but I guess I better run.
I hear you after me.
I won’t die of curiosity.
Grind my bones to make you bread,
some things should be left unsaid.
You have a castle in the sky, but
you’re not a nice.
No, you’re not a nice guy.
In the end, end of the story
Jack’s happy.
But I don’t know about me.

going all out
02:35
|

I swam in the ocean.
I crossed the sea.
I swam in the ocean
and oh it’s just like me, it’s just like me.
You heard it through a friend.
Then you booked the deal.
When surrounded by strangers
we do what we feel.
Going all out in the sunshine,
everything goes your way.
Dancing all night until morning,
grab a drink to start the day.
Going all out in the sunshine,
everything goes your way.
Dancing all night until morning,
grab a drink to start the day.
I climbed a mountain
jagged and so tall.
I climbed a mountain.
It makes me feel so small.
I’m watching the unbelievable.
Things you couldn’t conceive.
But I have a secret,
this is when I’m truly me.
Going all out in the sunshine,
everything goes your way.
Dancing all night until morning,
grab a drink to start the day.
Going all out in the sunshine,
party potion in its purist.
You party the hardest
when you party like a tourist.

we never had a choice
02:36
|
|||
I wasn’t born with a criminal mind.
Now it seems my actions
will have me doing time.
Breaking in homes,
things I’ve taken.
But please believe me,
it’s out of desperation.
I guess anything goes
when you’re holding on holding on.
This is obscene.
Where are my dreams?
You wouldn’t believe
the people you meet.
When you’re out there running,
on the street.
A million people you just don’t know.
It’s like everyone out
there is Jane or John Doe.
I guess anything goes
when you’re holding on holding on.
This is obscene.
I have no dreams.
We never had a choice.
I was looking for something
to settle me down.
We never had a choice.
I was looking for something
to set me right.

fairy tale
02:58
|

Once upon a dream,
you know the kind I mean.
You took my heart for ransom,
because you’re oh so handsome.
It started out so swell,
like I wished you from a well.
But now you’re acting strange,
how did everything change?
But I want you, I need you
and you know this much is true.
I’ll live in a fairytale for you.
Here in the story, deep in my mind.
In the critical hour,
you rescue me from the tower.
But in all reality,
you were never there for me.
Finding you with her was alarming,
But you’re still my prince charming.
But I want you, I need you
and you know this much is true.
I’ll live in a fairytale for you.
Speeding on your wagon,
you race to fight the dragon.
In one fatal strike, you win the fight.
It’s plain to see that
you’re no good for me.
You act so strong,
but I know that’s all wrong.
But I want you, I need you
and you know this much is true.
I’ll live in a fairytale for you.

standing next to me
03:22
|

I’ve been called it all in life,
weird and crazy and odd and nice.
They’re all compliments I’m different.
When it comes to finding love,
the kind that’s worthy of writing of.
It’s not so easy you see to
find someone like me.
But I won’t be alone, oh no.
Cause you’re my reflection
standing next to me.
You know you have to love yourself,
before you can love anybody else.
Before you can have some fun with the one.
It may be true opposites attract,
but similarities they last.
For so long, so long,
I’ve had it all wrong.
I love you more than I can fit in a verse.
So much more we’ll have
to create a new universe.
It’s you and me babe for better or worse.
Me is we.

when it started out
03:11
|

Last week, you told me the truth.
Came up to me and said
you couldn’t do without me.
It’s been a while, I’ve seen your face.
You hang around, follow me all over the place.
Boy you’re not clever.
You say you love me like no other.
I said I love you like my brother.
You said you’d never love another,
when it started out.
After one date you wanted a sequel.
But my whole life I’ve wanted an equal.
I don’t respect you.
You know it could be all good and fun.
Just tell me what you think,
you want and grow some.
A backbone.
You say you love me like no other.
I said I love you like my brother.
You said you’d never love another,
when it started out.
You gave up, you acted yourself.
You gave up and I couldn’t help.
You got me. You got me.
And now things won’t be the same.
It’s even different when you say my name.
Oh my! I think I love you.
You say you love me like no other.
I said I love you like my brother.
You said you’d never love another,
when it started out.

i don't trust me
02:32
|

I’ll try, no, no, no, no, no.
I cannot do that.
No, no, no, no,
you have it in your hand,
but I can not understand
why you want to escape.
I don’t trust me.
I don’t trust me.
I don’t trust me.
You won’t do it everyday,
at least that’s what you say.
But you don’t know that,
I pick things up fast.
Fast. I hope this doesn’t last all night.
I don’t trust me.
I don’t trust me.
I don’t trust me.
