Oh bellboy Where’s my luggage Oh Bellboy Bring my luggage Well I am high society and I expect the best of care I’ll take the elevator, but the bellboy takes the stairs Are you gonna ring my bell Are you gonna ring my bell Are you gonna ring my bell Are you gonna ring, are you gonna ring, are you gonna ring my bell Oh housekeeping Where’s my mint Oh housekeeping Bring more towels Fluff the pillows, change the sheets, clean up this god damn mess Don’t disturb, not a word, I need my beauty rest Are you gonna ring my bell Are you gonna ring my bell Are you gonna ring my bell Are you gonna ring, are you gonna ring, are you gonna ring my bell Oh room service Where’s my dinner Oh room service Bring champagne The water is not sparkling and the glasses all have spots This chicken is so overcooked and the bar is understocked. Are you gonna ring my bell Are you gonna ring my bell Are you gonna ring my bell Are you gonna ring, are you gonna ring, are you gonna ring my bell

Think Again 03:13
I wanna be able to think again I wanna be able to breathe I wanna be able to feel again I wanna be able to scream Hit a brick wall, going home. Now we’re out here on our own Loss of feeling, loss of heart. How’d we get so torn apart Don’t fear me now Don’t fear me now Don’t fear me now Don’t fear me now, now that I got here There is nothing, I could say, that will make this go away But I can tell that, nothing’s right, cause you don’t fall asleep at night Don’t fear me now Don’t fear me now Don’t fear me now Don’t fear me now, now that I got here Make me crazy, make me real. What I’d give to fucking heal We are broken, we are diseased, and I am begging on my knees Don’t fear me now Don’t fear me now Don’t fear me now Don’t fear me now, now that I got here

Nice Guys 02:14
Play the fucking victim just a little more When no one wants to fuck you cause you’re such a goddamn chore Well everyone keeps saying, “oh man he’s such a drag” Well you’ve been hurt a thousand times but there’s no need to brag Oh oh oh oh oh There’s something that you really ought to know Oh oh oh oh oh You’re making all the people that you know feel so uncomfortable You’re such a nice guy but you always finish last It’s not our fucking fault that you keep living in the past So just keep on complaining that we won’t give you a chance Or maybe just don’t try so hard to get inside her pants Oh oh oh oh oh There’s something that you really ought to know Oh oh oh oh oh You’re making all the people that you know feel so uncomfortable Oh oh oh oh oh There’s something that you really ought to know Oh oh oh oh oh You’re making all the people that you know feel so uncomfortable

Limbo 03:42
A new song, been ringing on my phone today Changed the alarm, the old one wasn’t getting me awake Every day is the same, on the corner i’m just beggin for some change Start to feel normal, I felt a lot better when I felt a bit strange Need a new routine, a new something to which i cling, oh Shake it up just a bit, oh so scared of the trouble it will bring But I’ve been sifting and drifting, moving along to where I belong so slowly Why do I move so slowly? I’m bent over backwards and I’m stuck in limbo with nothing above or below me Nothing above or below me Take a seat just at least, to get yourself a different point of view I know it ain’t easy trying to deal with me when I’m trying to deal with you I’d go insane but my sanity tends to lock me out Practice what I preach but the words in my head don’t match with the words in my mouth Lost in thought, I’ve been stuck with a tension that nobody ever caught At what cost, the best things in life just can’t be bought, oh no But I’ve been sifting and drifting, moving along to where I belong so slowly Why do I move so slowly? I’m bent over backwards and I’m stuck in limbo with nothing above or below me Nothing above or below me They tell me shoot for the moon but I’ve come to find i’m just too down to earth If pain is gain, only realize it works when it starts to hurt I’ve got a tolerance but no common sense about knowing when to quit. And the logic of man says “Shut the fuck up, just deal with it” Bones ache and break, every day it takes just a little bit more Keep both feet on the floor, don’t wanna do the things that I’ve done before But I’ve been sifting and drifting, moving along to where I belong so slowly Why do I move so slowly? I’m bent over backwards and I’m stuck in limbo with nothing above or below me Nothing above or below me

Meet me upstairs, I’ll be home soon Talk about it there, in my room Let the boys stare, don’t let them hear Say it’s not fair, it’s not you Fucked it up So suck it up It’s little boys With their white noise Up against the wall, can’t be alone Bathroom stall, it’s overblown Don’t they all think, you’re so free One more drink, they’re so mean Fucked it up So suck it up Lost again Another friend Take it out on me, please tell me why Can’t take advice, helpless to try Heard it all before, it’s nothing new Can’t take it anymore... (RANT) Fucked it up So suck it up It’s little boys With their white noise Fucked it up So suck it up Lost again Another friend

Steel pillowcase White crooked face Our happy days (You know you’re gonna miss me) Sweet humming sound Slumber on the ground Can’t stop it now (You know you’re gonna miss me) I’ll be, I’ll be you’re sleeping beauty I’ll be, I’ll be you’re sleeping beauty Black sugar bound Careless all around I’ll put you down (You know you’re gonna miss me) Air in your mouth Lung without a sound You’re murder crowd (You know you’re gonna miss me) I’ll be, I’ll be you’re sleeping beauty I’ll be, I’ll be you’re sleeping beauty Folks, I’d like to let you know, we’re gonna have to take it slow That pretty thing up just a head, tied up wishing to be dead Think we’ll help her out tonight, sudden loss of appetite Sorry folks, not tonight, not tonight, not tonight. I’ll be, I’ll be you’re sleeping beauty I’ll be, I’ll be you’re sleeping beauty I’ll be, I’ll be you’re sleeping beauty I’ll be, I’ll be you’re sleeping beauty (You know you’re gonna miss me, You know you’re gonna miss me)

Well oh my my, the bank just called, We ain't gonna make it through the fall And you could hear those bastards laugh as they hung up. To them this home is just a house, While I play my game of cat and mouse, Don't open the mail, best not test our luck. Well my mom's work is killing her, but you don't get what you don't deserve, Get your broke ass back to work, and pay your debts with death. And insurance claims all the damndest things, But a wasp don't die after it stings, Better off if you kill the queen, but you're never gonna find the nest. The less you make the more things cost, I'll cut you a break just to rip you off, If it all sounds good on paper full steam ahead. Old big brother might lend a hand, But you better shake twice for a payment plan, You wanna make an honest wage you're gonna have to beg FUCK! Well a penny saved soon goes to waste, Ya can't dream big if the bills ain't paid, Sit the fuck down and learn your place, That's all they ever taught in school. I work so hard just to be a scapegoat, When your chickens come to roost get your ducks in a row, You're gonna go broke if you keep up to code, but ya know thems is the rules. Well I purge it all and I keep it clean, I'm stuck in the middle of the in between, Roll up your sleeves, tighten your grip, but just don't give up the ship!
