3. Lifestyles of the Rich and the Famous (3:10)
Always see it on TV or read it in the magazines Celebrities want sympathy all they do is piss and moan inside the Rolling Stone Talking about how hard life can be Id like to see them spend a week livin' life out on the street I dont think they would survive If they could spend a day or two walking in someone else's shoes I think they'd stumble and they'd fall Lifestyles of the rich and the famous theyre always complaining always complaining If money is such a problem well they got mansions think we should rob them did you know when you were famous you could kill your wife and there was no such thing as 25 to life as long as you got the cash to pay for Cochran And did you know if you were caught and you were smoking crack Mc Donalds wouldnt even want to take you back You could always just run for mayor of DC Id like to see them spend a week livin' life out on the street i dont think they could survive If they could spend a day or two walking in someone else's shoes I think they'd stumble and they would fall Lifestyles of the rich and the famous They're always complaining, always complaining If money is such a problem Well they got Mansions Think we should rob them
4. Wondering (3:31)
If you want me to wait, I will wait for you If you tell me to stay, I will stay right thru If you dont wanna say anthing at all, Im happy wondering Since i was a young man i never was a fun man I never had a plan and no security then ever since i met you i never could forget you I only wanna get you right here next to me 'Cause everybody needs someone that they can trust and... you're somebody that i found just in time Now my life is changing, its always rearranging Its always getting stanger than i thought it ever could Ever since i found you, I wanna be around you I wanna get down to the point that i need you cause everybody needs someone that they can trust and... youre somebody that i found just in time. If you want me to wait, I would wait for you. If you tell me stoy would stay right thru If you Dont wanna say anything at all im happy wondering. Dont tell me the bad news Dont tell me anything at all. Just tell me that you need me. And stay right here with me. If you want me to wait. I would wait for you. If you tell me to say i would stay right thru if you dont wanna say anything at all Im happy wondering.

I dont know too much about my old man I know he walked right out the door we never saw him agian Last i Heard he was at the bar doing himself in. I know I got that same disease. I guess I got that from him This is the story of my old man just like his father before him Im telling you do anything you can so you dont end up just like them, like them Monday he woke up and hated life drank until wednesday and left his wife Thursday thru Saturday lost everything Woke up on sunday miserable agian I remember baseball games and working on the car He told me that he loved and that i would go far Showed me how to work hard and to stick up for myself I wish he wasnt too hard to listen to himseld This is the story of my old man Just like his father before him Im telling you do anything you can so you dont end up just like him, like him Monday he woke up and hated life Drank until wednesday and left his wife Thursday thru Saturday lost everything Woke up on Sunday miserable again...agian...again..

6. Boys and Girls (3:01)
Educated with money hes well dressed not funny And not much to say in most conversations But he'll foot the bill in all situations 'cause he pays for everything Girls dont like boys girls like cars and money Boys will laugh at girls when they're not funny Paper or plastic,dont matter she'll have it Vacations and shopping sprees these are a few of her favorite things She'll get what she wants if she is willing to please His type of girl always comes with a fee Hey now there's nothing for free Girls dont like boys girls like cars and money Boys will laugh at when there not funny And these girls like these boys, like these boys these girls The girls with the bodies like the boys with Ferraris Girls dont like boys, girls like cars and money All of these boys and all of these girls are losing their soulds in a material world.
7. My Bloody Valentine (3:54)
Oh my love, please dont cry i will wash my bloody hands and we'll start a new life. I ripped out his throat And called you on the telephone to take off my disguise Just in time to hear you cry When you mourn the death of your bloody valentine The night he died You mourned the death of your bloody valentine One last time Oh my love please dont cry I'll wash my bloody hands and we'll start a new life I dont know much at all, I dont know wrong from right All i know is that I love you tonight There was... Police and Flashing lights The rain came down so hard that night The headlines read "A lover died" No tell-tale heart was left to find when you mourn the death of your bloody valentine One last time Oh my love please dont cry Ill wash my bloody hands and well start a new life I dont know much at all, I dont know wrong from right All I know is that I love you tonight Tonight... He dropped you off I followed him home Then I stood outside his bedroom window Standing over him he begged me not to do what i knew i had to do 'cause I'm so in love with you Oh my love please dont cry i will wash my bloody hands And we'll start a new life I don't know much at all, I dont know wrong from right All i know is that i love you tonight.

11. The day that I die (2:58)
One day i woke up woke up knowing today is the day I will die Cashdogg was barking went to the park and enjoyed it one last time Called my mother told her I loved her and begged her not to cry Wrote he a letter that said I'd miss her and signed that goodbye... You know the happiest day of my life I swear the happiest day of my life is the day that i died Can you feel the cold tonight It sets in but it's alright Darkness falls i'm letting go All alone but i feel fine We took a drive and we drove thru D.C. to see the places we lived, long conversations We talked of old friends and all the things that we did Summer nights, Drunken fights Mistakes we made...Did we live it right? You know the happiest day of my lige I swear the happiest day of my life is the day that I died Can you feel the cold tonight it sets in but it's alright Darkness falls I'm letting go All alone but i feel just fine You know the happiest day of my life I know the happiest of my life I swear the happiest day of my life is the day i died Can you feel the cold tonight It sets in but it's alright Darkness falls im letting go. All alone But I feel Just fine Did i live it right? I hope I lived it right, I know I lived it right
