What if you were not just for show,What if you were not good to go,What if you were simply not so beautiful? What if you were not thin and tall,What if you were done with it all,What if you were not baby doll beautiful? (Beautiful)Isn't she,(Beautiful)Paid to be,(Beautiful)When I see,(Beautiful)Shame on me. Hoping that it's deeper than skin,Open to the beauty within,Scoping out the room's not a sin.Beautiful. Beautiful, and not much else, and not much else going on.No matter cause no one's as (Beautiful)Everytime she walks in the room the eyes all turn to find her,(Beautiful)Everything she says I simply say I never mind her,(Beautiful)Everyone she sees seems to ignore the whole experience,(Beautiful)Everytime she leave she sees me her checking her appearance. What if one day I wake up blind,Would I go on losing my mind,Groping in the dark just to find beautiful. Beauty disappears,Boredom perseveres. (Beautiful)Isn't she,(Beautiful)Paid to be,(Beautiful)When I see,(Beautiful)Shame on me.(Beautiful) (Beautiful) Isn't she?Everytime she walks in the room their heads all turn to find her(Beautiful) Paid to beEverything she says I simply say I never mind. (Beautiful) When I seeEveryone she sees seems to ignore the whole experience. (Beautiful) Shame on me.

Drunk on wine, I'm amazing Bitter Pill; it's my raising News at five and at midnight Caught on tape; serves me right The crowd around me starts to grow I can feel the undertow Anyone with a half a heart would help me out Before they ever let the other half find out But if they could see how far I've let you down Anyone with half a heart would let me drown Flashing lights couldn't warn her Paint myself in a corner Bracing now for the impact Losing hope, keeping track Standing on a crumbling wall Tethered to a cannonball Anyone with half a heart would help me out Before they ever let the other half find out But if they could see how high I've built this wall Anyone with half a heart would let me fall In the space between sleep and sleeplessness We redress all our wounds If we replace all this hopeless hopelessness Then we could rest Anyone with half a heart would let me drown Anyone with half a heart would pull me down Anyone with half a heart would let me fall Anyone with half a heart wouldn't care at all Anyone with half a heart would help me out Before they ever let the other half find out But if they could see how far I've let you down Anyone with half a heart would let me drown

Pretty soon you will be wanting me To go. And I will only be the enemy I know. Pretty soon you will be needing me To leave. But know that you and I will always be Naive. Maybe you'll forgive the things that I forgot. Maybe you're forgetting all the times we fought. Maybe we should divvy up the things we bought. But maybe not. Why don't we lay down on the kitchen floor All that we say we had with us before? We'll find our way to what we're looking for By seperating what is mine from yours. Pretty soon I'll be the one you hold At bay. And then forever I'll be good as gold If I may. I know your heart cannot be bought or sold For much. Darlin' I'd consider yourself told In Dutch. And we can argue 'till our throats are sore About how far you take a metaphor. You always deign to see the glass half filled And now it seems to me the half glass spilled. Maybe you'll forgive the things that I forgot. Maybe you're forgetting all the times we fought. Maybe we should divvy up the things we bought. But maybe Maybe you'll forgive the things that I forgot. Maybe you're forgetting all the times we fought. Maybe we should divvy up the things we bought. But maybe not. Maybe not. Maybe not

Everybody knows that happy is the new sad So I am gonna go and imitate my old dad And never crack a smile again. Everybody knows that as we all get older The will is first to go and so upon my shoulder The bluebird shall not sing again. Everybody knows that as our hair gets greyer We strike a bended pose and say a little prayer To never feel this way again. Everybody knows it's never getting better Everything must go and you will have to let her And never see her face again. Everybody's youth is only what they make it Longer in the tooth, so why do people fake it? We'll never get it back again. I know it hurts Noone wants to die. Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye

I had time to kill One day in Alaska I walked around until I found the arts and crafts shop I bought you a card I don't know where to send it I wrote it from the heart I'm not sure how to end it I wonder--where have you been? Will I see you again I give the globe another spin All this time I'm wonderin' Give the globe another spin Are you in Berlin? Sweet potato pie Is what your mom would always make Your father smoked a pipe My hand crushed in his handshake They say you took a job Spying for the army And had to relocate With a new identity I wonder--where have you been? Will I see you again? I give the globe another spin All this time I'm wonderin' Give the globe another spin Are you in (are you in) Afghanistan? Are you in...

Why'd you put your dress shoes on if you didn't come to dance?Frankly, I'd be on my own if I thought I'd stand a chanceWhy'd you take your glasses off if you don't intend to fight?Frankly, I'd be on my own if I thought I'd last the night No screaming or fighting, no scratching or bitingWe're just shaking hands goodnightSullen and silent, emotionally violentI waited a while and nothing, nothing Why say anything nice when you can say nothing at all?Why say anything nice when you can say nothing at all? Why'd you put your backpack on if you won't just take a hike?Frankly, I'd be out the door if you hadn't sold my bike No fencing or sparring, no bruising or scarringAnd no 'au revoiring' yetNo communication, just alienationI've tried to be patient but nothing, nothing Why say anything nice when you can say nothing at all?Why say anything nice? Say anything nice, a simple deviceThat makes everything beautiful just ordinaryNice can come at a price, forever imbued with all this boredomSacrifice can only suffice when something is beautiful After all the resentment, all the discontentmentThe flowers you sent meant nothing, nothing Why say anything nice when you can say nothing at all?Why say anything nice when you can say nothing at all? (Why say anything nice?...)You can say nothing at allWoo-hoo-hooNothing at allWoo-hoo-hooYou can say nothing at allWoo-hoo-hooNothing at all
