Up All Night

that girl is a runaway
she don't listen to a word i say
i'm trying not to come undone
she's trying not to fall in love
she and i could get away
take a plane to far bombay
but she don't listen to that jazz
she thinks i'm a fuckin' spazz
maybe she's right
i'm staying up all night
she's playin' hard to get
and i'm out of cigarettes
i've wasted all my time
but she don't pay no mind
blinded by the summer sun
i think that i have come undone
but she already moved on
and i'm staying up all night long

Enough

you're talkin' funny, and you're actin' kinda strange
i can tell you're back to your old ways
it makes me sick, man, i can't stand to be around
i'm done running after you when you're skippin' out of town
i played the fool one too many times
this ain't the first time that you have crossed the line
i can see right through all your dirty tricks
i ain't gonna tell you again, go and hit the bricks
cause i'm done messin' around
and i ain't gonna be your clown
burnin' me up, and i've got to tell you what
pack your shit and get on out, cause i've had enough
now i'm through listenin' to your lies
try it all you'd like, those fake alibis
you ain't no salesman and i ain't lookin' to buy
i ain't gonna tell you twice, get out of my sight

Squeeze
03:20
|

i asked her for a dance
she told me "sure," and so we hit the floor
she took me by the hand
she cast her spell upon me at the door
we're both bored beyond our rights
and we've both got an empty night
so we went back to her place
but i don't even know her name
and next week's a different scene
we are aware, but still we both don't care
come on baby, give me a squeeze
take me there and then we both can sit and stare

No Blame

tell me friend, would you let me know if i have gone insane
it's ok, i won't cast no blame
i don't know just how long it's been since i have lost my mind
and track of time, but it's alright
i'm sorry, ma, when i'm feelin' low i say some stupid shit
i'm a hypocrite, that i'll admit
oh, but please, don't you worry 'bout me, even for a jiff
i'm learning quick, i've got to shift
up and away, try to lift myself into some better days
i'll be feelin' great, just you wait
can't find the truth, but i sense it hiding behind all the lies
i recognize, i am not blind
just goes to show that the smartest man may never truly know
the secrets told in days of old
but such is life, there's another mountain every single time
still i climb, i'll get it right

Twisted Smile
02:52

well you stroll in with that twisted smile
and ask if you could stay for a while
well, you light up a smoke and ask how i've been
say "i've been better, man," but still you sit and grin
the smoke is fillin' up the room me both are in
and i can see what's goin' on, but i keep givin' in
ain't that a sin
can't have you comin' through
'cause you just bring me the blues
i don't need your putrid ways
or that smile on your face
i can't take your wicked games
or the crazy things that you say
i don't need to waste my time
tryna see things from your state of mind
don't wanna see through your crooked eyes
would rather have the good lord strike me blind
if he's be so kind
