Wanna Be
WANNA BE
I wanna be like superman
I wanna be a chimpanzee
I could fly all over the land
Or be swinging from a tree
I wanna be like a fish
Have the freedom of the sea
But walking on two feet
That’s where you will find me
Up in the morning and I take a stand
All is going just the way I planned
The boys the girls the kids in agony
Tell them freedom is my remedy
Retribution, no solution
We’re all apart of the institution
A recession no digression
It’s an obsession
I wanna be like superman
I wanna be a chimpanzee
I could fly all over the land
Or be swinging from a tree
I wanna be like a fish
Have the freedom of the sea
But walking on two feet
That’s where you will find me
Stampede of greed
Can’t you see that’s the last thing we need
You see our hate is our fate
It’s what we anticipate
Get the rhythm and the rhyme
Wouldn’t it be nice to have a good time
You’ll benefit from getting with it
Just for a minute
I wanna be like superman
I wanna be a chimpanzee
I could fly all over the land
Or be swinging from a tree
I wanna be like a fish
Have the freedom of the sea
But walking on two feet
That’s where you will find me
I wanna be like superman
I wanna be a chimpanzee
I could fly all over the land
Or be swinging from a tree -

This Highway
THIS HIGHWAY
Look into my eyes, tell me how far can you see
Can you see the dream, is it coming true, or is it just a fantasy
Look at me and stare, I never quite knew why you cared
I never quite knew why you
You mock my want for infamy
Though I kinda liked the jealousy
It’s like I’ve memorized this highway
And from that I will not stray
And I wish I could say I’d missed you (I bet you say the same too)
It’s like I’ve memorized this highway
Look into my eyes, tell me can you see what I see
A definition and a vision of a hero lies in me
You look at me so cold, not everything you touch is gold
Not everything is gold you
You mock my want for infamy
Though I kinda liked the jealousy
It’s like I’ve memorized this highway
And from that I will not stray
And I wish I could say I’d missed you (I bet you say the same too)
It’s like I’ve memorized this highway
And it’s all I know to do
It’s all I know to do
You mock my want for infamy
Though I kinda liked the jealousy
It’s like I’ve memorized this highway
And from that I will not stray
And I wish I could say I’d missed you (I bet you say the same too)
It’s like I’ve memorized this highway
And I wish I could say I’d missed you (I bet you say the same too)
It’s like I’ve memorized this highway
Look into my eyes
I just want to wish you well, wish you well, wish you well, in your hell
Look into my… -

Jungle Beat
JUNGLE BEAT
You know to be alone has a negative implication
Is it alone by choice or a fear of being shunned
Can a fear of being lonely really be a fear of failure
And can this fear become a fearful nature
These insecurities have got me walking on my knees
I know exactly what I please, but my mind is ill at ease
It’s not easy for me to lay my hopes and feelings down on the line
But the price of failure weighs heavy of my mind
I got that jungle beat and that’s what I need
When the outside world turns up the heat
When I’m feeling sad and I’m feeling mad
When the problems just seem to be outta hand
I get the music out and it’s swinging about
And the spirit turns within me and I wanna shout
I can’t be down or even wear a frown
‘Cause the music grabs a hold and picks me up from the ground
My problems may not leave me
But the beat has lifted me inside
My soul has begun to smile
Now I think I’ll be O.K. for a while
The microscope that we aim at ourselves
Is amazingly powerful in the depths that it delves
My new flaws in our self conception
Are seen as giant cracks by our inspection
Now these flaws they’re traits of every man and woman
They make us what we are, but they keep up from being open
Nobody wants to see those flaws exposed
But the fact of the matter is son that’s a door we can’t keep closed
I got that jungle beat and that’s what I need
When the outside world turns up the heat
When I’m feeling sad and I’m feeling mad
When the problems just seem to be outta hand
I get the music out and it’s swinging about
And the spirit turns within me and I wanna shout
I can’t be down or even wear a frown
‘Cause the music grabs a hold and picks me up from the ground
My problems may not leave me
But the beat has lifted me inside
My soul has begun to smile
Now I think I’ll be O.K. for a while
I got that jungle beat and that’s what I need
When the outside world turns up the heat
When I’m feeling sad and I’m feeling mad
When the problems just seem to be outta hand
I get the music out and it’s swinging about
And the spirit turns within me and I wanna shout
I can’t be down or even wear a frown
‘Cause the music grabs a hold and picks me up from the ground
My problems may not leave me
But the beat has lifted me inside
My soul has begun to smile
Now I think I’ll be O.K. for a while

Better Way
BETTER WAY
I wouldn’t call this a love song
I didn’t write it ‘cause I did something wrong
Just a better way to show you how I feel
Just a better way to show you I’m for real
You never treated me good, but you never treated me bad
Thought I knew where we stood, all it took to make you mad
You asked me to leave then you wanted me to stay
Better make up your mind either way
I still love you (I still love you)
I still love you (I still love you)
I still love you (I still love you)
I still love you (I still love you)
I wouldn’t call this a love song
I didn’t write it ‘cause I did something wrong
Just a better way to show you how I feel
Just a better way to show you I’m for real
You really liked me, I was so in love with you
But I never acted my age, or be who you wanted me to
So you say you’re through with trying, it’s time to turn the page
Never gonna leave me crying, so why don’t you stay
I still love you (I still love you)
I still love you (I still love you)
I still love you (I still love you)
I still love you (I still love you)
I wouldn’t call this a love song
I didn’t write it ‘cause I did something wrong
Just a better way to show you how I feel
Just a better way to show you I’m for real
I never acted my age and I never wore the right clothes
Well at least I didn’t have an earring in my nose
I still love you (I still love you)
I still love you (I still love you)
I still love you (I still love you)
I still love you (I still love you)
I still love you (I still love you)
I still love you (I still love you)
I still love you (I still love you)
I still love you (I still love you) -

Why Me
WHY ME
I woke up on the wrong side of the bed
It’s days like these my mama said I would dread
Like to get nice and clean, but all the hot water is gone
God dam have to shower with a bottle of cheep cologne
Late for a very important date again
Speed up leave a cloud of dust at least the engine isn’t dead
Up ahead every light I see turns from green to yellow to red
Every block that I stop I bang the steering wheel with my head
Tell me why, everything’s a formality
Tell me why, we always disagree
Tell me why, I wallow in my own pity
Could happen to anyone in this city
Why me
Another day another dime another sign another dollar that I spend
Another time another rhyme another opinion to defend
Boss man got me twenty things to do
Not in a state to concentrate with this dog crap on my shoe
Don’t you lie, don’t you patronize, you say you’ve been here before
Ain’t life just a grand slam when it’s kicking your posterior
Say man look at the bright side the days not over yet
Things can’t get any worse I say wanna bet
Tell me why, everything’s a formality
Tell me why, we always disagree
Tell me why, I wallow in my own pity
Could happen to anyone in this city
Why me
Tell me why, everything’s a formality
Tell me why, we always disagree
Tell me why, I waddle in my own pity
Could happen to anyone in this city
Tell me why, my song is so shitty
Tell me why, I suck at Jeopardy
Tell me why, you’re looking so pretty
Tell me why, I can’t be too sexy
Why me -

Pittsburgh
PITTSBURGH
You flew in from Pittsburgh just the other day
So much on your mind so little to say
I asked all the questions and waited for the answers
But your only reply was a tear from your eye
You flew in from Pittsburgh just the other day
Left your man back East with your love all frayed
Now you’re searching for the comfort of old homes bed
When you should be seeking the comfort of a long lost friend
And I said, when you find what love is for
I’ll be right inside my door
When you leave your prince’s kingdom
I hope you come knocking
You flew back to Pittsburgh just the other day
With your eyes all dry, nothing left to say
I’m left here again with my heart in my hands
With all love ails cured, still part of me is sad
And I said, when you find what love is for
I’ll be right inside my door
When you leave your prince’s kingdom
I hope you come knocking
