Not Fair - Lily Allen


Oh he treats me with respect
He says he loves me all the time
He calls me 15 times a day
He likes to make sure that I'm fine
You know I've never met a man who's made me feel quite so secure
He's not like all them other boys
They're all so dumb and immature

There's just one thing that's getting in the way
When we go up to bed you're just no good
Its such a shame
I look into your eyes I want to get to know you
And then you make this noise and its apparent it's all over

It's not fair
And I think you're really mean
I think you're really mean
I think you're really mean
Oh you're supposed to care
But you never make me scream
You never make me scream

Oh it's not fair
And it's really not ok
It's really not ok
It's really not ok
Oh you're supposed to care
But all you do is take
Yeah all you do is take

Oh I lie here in the wet patch
In the middle of the bed
I'm feeling pretty damn hard done by
I spent ages giving head
Then I remember all the nice things that you ever said to me
Maybe I'm just overreacting maybe you're the one for me

There's just one thing that's getting in the way
When we go up to bed you're just no good
It's such a shame
I look into your eyes I want to get to know you
And then you make this noise and it's apparent it's all over

It's not fair
And I think you're really mean
I think you're really mean
I think you're really mean
Oh you're supposed to care
But you never make me scream
You never make me scream

Oh it's not fair
And it's really not ok
It's really not ok
It's really not ok
Oh you're supposed to care
But all you do is take
Yeah all you do is take

There's just one thing that's getting in the way
When we go up to bed you're just no good
It's such a shame
I look into your eyes I want to get to know you
And then you make this noise and its apparent it's all over

It's not fair
And I think you're really mean
I think you're really mean
I think you're really mean
Oh you're supposed to care
But you never make me scream
You never make me scream

Oh it's not fair
And it's really not ok
It's really not ok
It's really not ok
Oh you're supposed to care
But all you do is take
Yeah all you do is take

The Pretender - Foo Fighters


Keep you in the dark you know they all pretend
Keep you in the dark and so it all began

Send in your skeletons
Sing as their bones come marching in again
The need you buried deep
The secrets that you keep are at the ready, are you ready?

I'm finished making sense
Done pleading ignorance that whole defense
Spinning infinity, but the wheel is spinning me
It's never ending, never ending
Same old story

What if I say I'm not like the others
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender

What if I say I'm not like the others
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say that I'll never surrender

In time or so I'm told
I'm just another soul for sale, oh well
The page is out of print
We are not permanent, we're temporary, temporary
Same old story

What if I say I'm not like the others
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say that I'll never surrender

What if I say I'm not like the others
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender

I'm the voice inside your head, you refuse to hear
I'm the face that you have to face, mirrored in your stare
I'm what's left, I'm what's right, I'm the enemy
I'm the hand that'll take you down, bring you to your knees

So, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?

Keep you in the dark you know they all pretend

What if I say I'm not like the others
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender

What if I say I'm not like the others
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say that I'll never surrender

What if I say I'm not like the others?
(Keep you in the dark)
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
(You know they all)
You're the pretender
(Pretend)
What if I say I will never surrender

What if I say I'm not like the others?
(Keep you in the dark)
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
(You know they all)
You're the pretender
(Pretend)
What if I say I will never surrender

So who are you
Yeah who are you
Yeah who are you!

No One Loves Me, Neither Do I - Them Crooked Vultures


Take a song from the first time you made me introduce them
She was looking, her mind just oblique
She called me baby, and was a mean lady with the song on the radio
So I told her I was rich, then she asked could I use a dirty bitch (of course)

Then she said, No one loves me... neither do I
You get what you give,
And give goodbye
and if I should vanish
Don't get caught off guard
Don't hold it against me
Unless it gets her

Well if sex is a weapon, then smash, boom, pow,
How do you like me now?
You can't always do it right, you can always do what's left
So I told her I was trash, she wait til after and said I already know...
I've got a beautiful place to put your face and she was right,

And I said, no one loves me... neither do I
It makes perfect sense,
So I heard her ask why?
I've got tomorrow
Cuz life doesn't wait
You can keep your soul
I don't wanna soul mate

Cutting her loose, I'm ready to go
People in the world, your gonna lose control
Cutting her loose, I'm ready to go
People in the world, your gonna lose control
Cutting her loose, I'm ready to go
People in the world, your gonna lose control
Cut me a noose, I'm ready to go
People in the world, your gonna lose

I know how to burn with passion
Hope nothing backfolds future ration
Give all you are, to not make haste
Save our revery, single taste
You get... cut

I know how to be controlled
Do what they said so, what your told
Quick to react, to break the box
Turn on queue, as your cell door locks
Behind you

I know how to be lost in lust
Not because you should, but because you must
It burns white hot, and so climbs the mile
This lightening strike isn't always cut
So use me up
Use me up

Plasticities - Andrew Bird


this isn't your song
this isn't your music
how can they be wrong
when by committee they choose it all?
they choose it all

chin chin
chin chin

you're gonna grow old
you're gonna grow cold

bearing signs on the avenue
for your own personal Waterloo
you're bearing signs on the avenue
for your own personal Waterloo now

we'll fight, we'll fight
we'll fight for your music halls
and dying cities

they'll fight, they'll fight
they'll fight for your neural walls
and plasticities
and precious territory

this isn't our song
this isn't even a musical
I think life is too long
to be a whale in a cubicle

nails under your cuticle

chin chin
chin chin

you're gonna grow old
you're gonna grow so cold
before this song can deliver you
you're bearing signs on the avenue
you're bearing signs
for your own personal Waterloo now

we'll fight, we'll fight
we'll fight for your music halls
and dying cities

they'll fight, they'll fight
they'll fight for your neural walls
and plasticities
and precious territory

Amy Winehouse - You Know I'm No Good


Meet you downstairs in the bar and heard
Your rolled up sleeves in your skull T-shirt
You say "why did you do it with him today?"
And sniffed me out like I was Tanqueray

'Cause you're my fella, my guy
Hand me your Stella and fly
By the time I'm out the door
You tear me down like Roger Moore

I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was trouble
You know that I'm no good

Upstairs in bed with my ex-boy
He's in a place, but I can't get joy
Thinking on you in the final throes
This is when my buzzer goes

Run out to meet your chips and pitta
You say when "we're married",
'Cause you're not bitter
"There'll be none of him no more"
I cried for you on the kitchen floor

I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was trouble
You know that I'm no good

Sweet reunion, Jamaica and Spain
We're like how we were again
I'm in the tub, you on the seat
Lick your lips as I soak my feet

Then you notice a likkle carpet burn
My stomach drop and my guts churn
You shrug and it's the worst
Who truly stuck the knife in first

I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was trouble
You know that I'm no good

I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was troubled
Yeah, you know that I'm no good

This Is Your Life - The Dust Brothers

And you open the door and you step inside
We're inside our hearts
Now imagine your pain as a white ball of healing light
Thats right
Your pain, the pain of self is a white ball of healing light
I dont think so

This is your life
Good to the last drop
It doesnt get any better than this
This is your life and its ending one minute at a time

This isnt a seminar
This isnt a weekend retreat
Where you are now you can't even imagine what the bottom will be like
Only after disaster can we be resurrected
It's only after you've lost everything you are free to do anything

Nothing is static
Everything is evolving
Everything is falling apart

You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake
You are the same decaying organic matter as everything else
We are all part of the same compost heap
We are the all singing all dancing crap of the world

You are not your bank account
You are not the clothes you wear
You are not the contents of your wallet
You are not your bowel cancer
You are not your grande latte
You are not the car you drive
You are not your fucking khakis

You have to give up
You have to realise that someday you will die
Until you know that
You are useless

I say, let me never be complete
I say, may I never be content
I say, deliver me from swedish furniture
I say, deliver me from clever art
I say deliver me from clear skin and perfect teeth
I say you have to give up
I say evolve, and let the chips fall as they may

I want you to hit me as hard as you can (x2)
Welcome to fight club
If this is your first night - You have to fight

36 Degrees - Placebo


We were tight,
but it falls apart as silver turns to blue.
Waxing with a candlelight,
and burning just for you.
Allocate your sentiment,
and stick it in a box.
I've never been an extrovert,
but i'm still breathing.
Someone tried to do me ache
it's what I'm afraid of)

With hindsight,
I was more than blind,
lost without a clue.
Thought I was getting carat gold,
and what I got was you.
Stuck inside the circumstances,
lonely at the top.
I've always been an introvert happily bleeding.
Someone tried to do me ache
(it's what i'm afraid of)

4 7 2 3 9 8 5 - I gotta breathe to stay alive,
and 1 4 2 9 7 8 - feels like I'm gonna suffocate.
14 16 22 - this skin that turns to blister blue.
Shoulders toes and knees,
I'm 36 degrees,
shoulders toes and knees,
I'm 36 degrees,
shoulder toes and knees,
I'm 36 degrees,
shoulders toes and knees,
I'm 36 degrees.
