Waiting
04:00

Waiting for your call
Is like waiting for redemption
And I’m not that patient my love
No I’m not that patient no
Are you there, are you there at home?
Screening all your calls
You have that, caller ID set
And that damn star 69
While I wait in limbo
Bite my nails, count the tiles
Waiting for the other show to fall
Waiting on you on you to call
Will I see you again?
One more drink one more night
Do you think it would be alright if I heard from you?
Waiting for your call
Is like waiting for results
Of a home pregnancy test
It makes me very anxious
Is she there, is she there with you?
Drinking out of my wine glass
Does she see my lipstick?
Eat the food I brought over?
I’ll admit I am lonely
Too much time on my hands spent thinking
Waiting for the other show to fall
Waiting on you on you to call
Will I survive the day?
One more drink one more night
Do you think it would be alright?
Call me when you say
It’s not that I’m accusing you
But what’s your explanation
Your hesitation
How many days will you make me wait?
It’s not that I haven’t got
Other obligations
Other invitations
Why’d you have to look some damn good?
Are you there, are you by the phone
I know you’re there, I know you’re by the phone
Part of me wants to tear my hair out
Part of me wants to run away
Slit my wrists do something drastic
Why, you ain’t worth it
Maybe I’ll take in a movie
Wash my hair take out the trash
Call a friend meet up for dinner
Then again, Then again
Waiting….are you there
Waiting….I know you’re there
Do you think this is fun?
Do you think it’s fair to keep me waiting around like this?
Like I have nothing better to do
Cause I do you know
I mean, just be straight okay.
It’s not like you have anything else planned.
Probably just sitting around in your underwear, watching MTV or Porn
While I slowly go mad
Do you get off on this?
Let me guess Your DIALING FINGER BROKE!
Well I won’t wait forever.

Another Me
03:35
|
|||
I used to let you bring me down
You used to knock me to the ground
I cried, crept into my self-made (little) shell
And I prayed, lived inside my wishing well
You told me everything I did was wrong
Preyed on me, made me feel I don’t belong
I had diminished self-respect
You laughed, no reason to object
But I’m a little bird who discovered she could sing
I’m a butterfly who discovered she had wings
Another me, would’ve hung on everything you said
The other me, would have let you get inside my head
The other me, another me, another me
You call, to see if I’m still there
Think you mistook me for someone who cares
What you say, or what you think of me
Your opinions don’t mean so much to me
Now I have my confidence I know what I can be
Put away your jagged edge you cannot cut through me
Another me, would’ve hung on everything you said
The other me, would have let you get inside my head
The other me, another me
I’ll be standing tall
I’ll be laughing through it all
You will never make me fall
You say, you see through me
I say, you never knew me
Another me…………….
Another me…………….
The other me, another me
Another me, a better me, a stronger me
And I’ll outlast you longer me
A newer me (a freer me) a truer me
And I won’t let you get the best of me
SOFT:
You say, you see through me
I say, you never knew me

I Like Who I Am
04:19
|
|||
I may look but I won’t touch
cuz I’ve been touched by you
What looks like gold may turn to dust
In you I see what’s true
I’m in love and it’s no lie
You’ve opened up my soul
My heart is free I can fly
In love but in control
You’ve opened up the world to me
Sheltered me from harm
Purity Ecstasy
With you I’m safe and warm. With you I’m safe and warm
.
Like a glove that fits just right
You keep me warm at night
You’re the java in my cup
You’re the fuel that fills me up
Give me love I’ve never known
No longer going it alone
You’re my love my light my everything right
I love you so
I like who I am when I’m with you ooh ooh
I like who I am when I’m with you
Through your eyes I see myself
A self I’ve longed to be
No more fears no more doubts
Passionate and free
You have this way of lifting me up
You see right through my soul
Inspire me I’ll never give up
Your love has made me whole. You have made me whole.
Like a glove that fits just right
You keep me warm at night
You’re the java in my cup
You’re the fuel that fills me up
Give me love I’ve never known
No longer going it alone
You’re my love my light my everything right
I love you so
I like who I am when I’m with you
Thank you for your patience and your love
There is nothing I won’t overcome
Thank my lucky stars above
The love you’re supplying is what keeps me flying
I like who I am with you…ooh
Like a glove that fits just right
You keep me warm at night
You’re the java in my cup
You’re the fuel that fills me up
Give me love I’ve never known
No longer going it alone
You’re my love my light my everything right
I love you so
I like who I am when I’m with you….repeat and fade

Bitter Lemon Bitter Lemon
What makes you so sour?
In this happy hour
Don’t think I want no Bitter Lemon
Your effervescent nature lead me to this place
Your bitter disposition leaves an aftertaste
It is so moronic
How I tried this tonic
Don’t think I want no Bitter Lemon
Bitter Lemon no no
Bitter Lemon please no
Bitter Lemon hold your
Bitter Lemon
Why can’t you just sweeten up?
Why cant you just lighten up
Please don’t ever fill my cup with Bitter Lemon
The way you went down all wrong makes me writhe inside
I can’t seem to swallow you lost my appetite
You seemed so innocuous
Now I think you’re poisonous
Think I’ll stay away from Bitter Lemon
Bitter Lemon no no
Bitter Lemon please no
Bitter Lemon hold your
Bitter Lemon
Why can’t you just sweeten up?
Why cant you just lighten up
Think I’ll stay away from Bitter Lemon BREAK
Bitter Lemon no no
Bitter Lemon please no
Bitter Lemon hold your
Bitter Lemon
Why can’t you just sweeten up?
Why cant you just lighten up
Take a hint from 7-up Bitter Lemon
Bitter Lemon no no
Bitter Lemon please no
Bitter Lemon hold your
Bitter Lemon
Why can’t you just sweeten up?
Why cant you just lighten up
I think you should give it up Bitter Lemon
Pass the sugar please
Pass the sugar please
Pass the sugar please
I think I’m gonna be SICK!

Young and Pretty
04:12
|
|||
I’ve tried so hard to be good
But I get nothing in return
Try to focus straight ahead not let others turn my head
Your lack of passion has me concerned
I’ve been tempted by the apple of seduction
But all the while I’ve held restraint
If you don’t come around and prove why you’re my lover
I’ll have wandered into eden’s gate
Like to say I’d wait forever
I don’t think I have forever
Want it while I’m young and still pretty
Don’t like to waste my time
So if you can’t make up your mind
Leave me while I’m young and still pretty
I’m getting tired of having to explain
Why my lover’s not with me
If I’m unavailable why am I alone
When there are many men to fill my needs
My chastity belt is wanting to unfasten
Unleash this gypsy girl inside
I don’t think I’m asking much just want time together
Or I’ll be swept out with the changing tide
Like to say I’d wait forever
I don’t think I have forever
Want it while I’m young and still pretty
Don’t like to waste my time
So if you can’t make up your mind
Leave me while I’m young and still pretty
Part of me remembers when everything was fine
You called me often Bought me things
Took me out to dinner Swept me off my feet
When was the last time you made love to me
Like to say I’d wait forever
I don’t think I have forever
Want it while I’m young and still pretty
Don’t like to waste my time
So if you can’t make up your mind
Leave me while I’m young and still pretty 2x

Don't Shut Me Out
04:05
|
|||
You talk but you say nothing
Nothing to reveal
Superficial casual
Always trying to conceal
What’s underneath the covers
Behind the broken door
Highly guarded walls of fear
Well what if someone knew the score
PRE-CHORUS
If no one can come close to you
A lonely life you’ll lead
Feelings make you human
Admit your wants and needs
CHORUS
Don’t shut me out, let me in
It’s the only way we both can win
A woman’s touch can make you whole
Doesn’t mean you’ve lost control
Don’t shut me out, let me know
It’s the only way our love can grow
Drop the hang ups start again
Let me help you I’m your friend
VERSE 2
A soft and careless whisper
I’m giving you my ear
So close to me yet distant
Seems like you’re not hear
Every night I’m hoping
You’ll open up to me
You make love without feeling
PRE-CHORUS
Deny your ecstasy
Lying on my pillow
Unsure of your embrace
Hands up to the ceiling
Turned to hide your face
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Boy just put your trust in me
I’ll give my love unselfishly
Clear the cobwebs from your mind
Fight the demons have some pride
Take some chances let me in
It’s the only way we both can win
Let your soul fly free at last
Start the future, forget the past
CHORUS
You talk but you say nothing…(4x)

One Less
04:22
|
|||
Should I feel devastated that you want to leave
Should I feel negated was I supposed to grieve
Should I fall apart at the sight of your things
Packed away in designer bags
Divi up the things we had
Record of the fact there was a we….well let me see….
Well it’s ONE LESS dress I have to wear
ONE LESS frown to look upon
ONE LESS dinner that I have to sit through, and nod politely
ONE MORE night without a headache
ONE MORE night of better sleep
ONE LESS person that I have to please…so it’s fine with me
Now your closet’s empty what am I supposed to do
With all this new found freedom cuz I’m not obligated to you
I can take you off my to do list
Make myself a better plan
Find myself a better man
Can’t remember why I stayed with you…well it’s true
Well it’s ONE LESS dress I have to wear
ONE LESS frown to look upon
ONE LESS dinner that I have to sit through, and nod politely
ONE MORE night without a headache
ONE MORE night of better sleep
ONE LESS person that I have to please…so it’s fine with me
If you’re going leave your keys upon the table
If you’re going leave my umbrella in the hall
If you’re going don’t forget to forward all your mail
Don’t let that door hit you in the tail
Cuz I couldn’t stand the sound
But don’t worry
Cuz it’s ONE LESS dress I have to wear
ONE LESS frown to look upon
ONE LESS dinner that I have to sit through, and nod politely
ONE MORE night without a headache
ONE MORE night of better sleep
ONE LESS person that I have to please
Yeah it’s ONE LESS drink that I have to pour
ONE LESS night I have to hear you snore
ONE LESS tear that will fall from my eyes
Are you surprised
ONE LESS smile that I have to fake
ONE LESS night I have to lie awake
Wondering where you are
Wondering what you’re doing
Or who you’re doing
MM HM
So it’s fine with me

I Can't Stand You
04:32
|
|||
I’d like to say the very thought of you
Brightens up a dreary day
That every time I see your smile
Happy feelings come my way
But It’s just not true…I can’t stand you no no
It’s just not true…I’m over you
Wish I could say you made me giddy
Made me tremble deep inside
Like to say your charms have affected me
There’s a secret I have to hide
But It’s just not true…I can’t stand you no no
It’s just not true…I’m over you
There was a time you made me think that we had something special
Took my number Took my pride
And used only one of them frequently
Well I’ve forgotten what I saw in you
What made me glance your way
So I guess in the scheme of things
It wasn’t that important anyway
Your big blue eyes and electric smile
Might tempt another to fall for you
Well they don’t affect me at all
But I’ll say that if you want me to
But It’s just not true…I can’t stand you no no
It’s just not true…I’m over you

Crossed Over
04:31
|

VERSE 1
I was cheated on by fate
And cheated out of the love of a lifetime
You're at Heaven's Gate
And I have Hell on Earth
VERSE 2
You took me for your wife
I took you for a love everlasting
You went and changed my life
Now all my dreams are gone
PRE-CHORUS
We took our vows and we said forever
How did forever come and go
Thought our lifetimes would last forever
Forever's over, oh how did I know
When we said goodbye that fateful morn
It really was goodbye
CHORUS
How can I move on when your side of the bed is still warm?
How can I move on when a part of my life has been torn?
It's like a piece of my heart was just ripped out
And it's hanging over my head
The day that you crossed over, crossed over, crossed over
VERSE 3
If everyone had a soul mate
If everyone had only one true love
Then I'll have to wait
Til I see you up above
PRE-CHORUS
You said we'd always be together
How did our always come and go?
Part if you will be with me always
I'll always love you though you've passed on
They tell me I'm young I should find another
But I can't let you go
CHORUS
How can I move on when your side of the bed is still warm?
How can I move on when a part of my life has been torn?
It's like a piece of my heart was just ripped out
And it's hanging over my head
The day that you crossed over, crossed over, crossed over
BRIDGE
Wish I could have made you stronger
Held you by me a little bit longer
Made you late for work that day
Kept all evil far away
Have I used all my points?
Made all my wishes
Where's my lifetime warranty?
CHORUS
How can I move on when your side of the bed is still warm?
How can I move on when a part of my life has been torn?
It's like a piece of my heart was just ripped out
And it's hanging over my head
The day that you crossed over, crossed over, crossed over
Sleep tight my love (4x)

Uninhibited
03:39

I wear my skirt just shorter tan a lady ought to
Is that ok by you
Just enough to be legal Pushing the limit
Pants are a little too tight
My blouse too revealing in certain light
Anything dangerous you’ll be there to save me
Make me wanna walk against the light
Do all the things that I know ain’t right
Disobey everything mama always told me not to do
When I’m with you
Make me wanna be bad
I’ll show you a time like you never had
Disobey every rule we were taught in school
Is that ok by you when I’m with you
Love the way you make me writhe in endless pleasure
You’ll scream my name too
Do anything as long as we have fun together
I walk just a little too proud
Click my heels just a little too loud
No one told me that wasn’t allowed
Bring bail money for later
Make me wanna walk against the light
Do all the things that I know ain’t right
Disobey everything mama always told me not to do
When I’m with you
Make me wanna be bad
I’ll show you a time like you never had
Disobey every rule we were taught in school
Is that ok by you when I’m with you
Let them whisper let them stare
You’re the only one who’ll get your share
Let them take notes in the lesson of love it’s free by me
My lipstick’s a little too red
I’ll gladly do the walk of shame to my own bed
Pay my dues later as long as I have fun now
Make me wanna walk against the light
Do all the things that I know ain’t right
Disobey everything mama always told me not to do
When I’m with you
Make me wanna be bad
I’ll show you a time like you never had
Disobey every rule we were taught in school
Is that ok by you when I’m with you
Swim in the waters of shamelessness
I feel uninhibited
Dance in the fire of decadance
I feel uninhibited repeat and fade
