- Pull the shades, razor blades. You're so tragic, hate you so, love you more, I'm so elastic. The things you say, the games you play.
- Dirty Magic
- You gotta keep 'em separated
- Come Out And Play
- Now I'll relate this little bit
That happens more than I'd like to admit
Late at night she knocks on my door
She's drunk again and looking to score
Oh I know I should say no but
It's kind of hard when she's ready to go
I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb
I'm just a sucker with no self esteem- Self Esteem
- Drivers are rude
Such attitudes
But when I show my piece
Complaints cease
Something's odd
Feel like I'm god
You stupid dumbshit goddamned motherfucker!- Bad Habit
- Smash is the way you feel all alone, Like an outcast you're out on your own. Smash is the way you deal with your life, Like an outcast you're smashing your strife

- Head over heels I've fit in before, Now I don't wanna do it no more, I wanna be who I wanna be, I guess it's hard for others to see
- Smash
- Me and my old lady sit and sip on wine. And when she says she loves me, well, I say that love is blind.

- When the truth walks away, everybody stays/'Cause the truth about the world is that crime does pay
- Have You Ever

And I need - I've taken all I can stand
And I fall - But I am running a race
Against myself,- Race Against Myself

In front of me
Heaven up above, with a shove
Abandons me
