1: Down on Haley

Down on Haley, Haley Street
Where the drugs are easy and the sex is cheap
You never know just who you'll meet on Haley
Crack Dealer looks out his door
Winks his eye and waves to his whore
She don't wanna turn tricks anymore on Haley

You don't have to ride the straight and narrow
As long as you drive up in a Camaro
Tattoo Parlor why don't you hang out
Let em show you what it's all about
We're gonna help you work it on out on Haley
Don't need no license don't need no subpoena
You can hook up with your favorite Gina
Makin' fun if you know what I mean on Haley
You don't have to ride the straight and narrow
As long as you drive up in a Camaro
Goin' down down down down .... on Haley
Goin' down down down down .... on Haley
Goin' down down down down .... on Haley
Goin' down down down down .... on Haley

2: Golfshirt

I'm not the one you dream about
And I'm not the one who you can't live without
I'm not the one you wanna see
I'm not the one who you want to be seen with
But when you're tired of all the jerks
And you're tired of all the work
And you're tired of being hurt
You will long for the comfort of my Golf shirt

I'm not the one who was an old time punk rocker
I was listening to Rush and trying to feather my hair back
When all that stuff went down
I'm not the one who was in a high school hardcore band
I sat in my room, scoring with Ms. Pac-Man

But when you're tired of all the jerks
And you're tired of all the work
And you're tired of being hurt
You will long for the comfort of my golfshirt

No tats, no piercings
No hats, no grunge beard baby, yeah
No tats, no piercings
No hats, no grunge beard baby, yeah
No tats, no piercings
No hats, no grunge beard baby, yeah
Yeah, oh yeah

3: Sorry

Sorry we broke up, sorry I missed you
Sorry I wanted only to kiss you
Sorry I promised to love you forever
Made you feel guilty, oh when you left me
Sorry I showed up at your party
Sorry I drank up all the Bacardi
Sorry I puked up on your bedspread
Sorry I wanted to be your boyfriend again

What can I do?
It's over, it's over, it's over, it's over
What can I do? I am the loser

Sorry I saw you and I heard birds sing
Sorry I touched you and I heard bells ring
Sorry I jacked off outside of your window
While you were sleeping
I thought you'd never know
Sorry I showed up at your wedding
Sorry I tried so hard to get in
Sorry I screwed up your picture
Sorry I had sex with your sister

What can I do?
It's over, it's over, it's over, it's over
What can I do? I am the loser

Sorry we broke up, sorry I missed you
Sorry I wanted only to kiss you
Sorry I promised to love you forever
Made you feel guilty, oh when you left me
Sorry I showed up at your dinner
Sorry I said those things to your father
Sorry I crashed through your window on acid
Sorry I made a mess, sorry I bled to death

What can I do?
It's over, it's over, it's over, it's over
What can I do? I am the loser, I am the loser
What can I do?
It's over, it's over, it's over, it's over
What can I do? I am the loser

4: Easy Mark

Yeah she, she's bustin' out
Put the suitcase in the Pinto
And get the hell out of Ohio

She gets on that great highway
Doesn't wanna' be anywhere
She's an easy mark o-ho, o-ho, o-ho
She's an easy mark o-ho

Yeah he, he's got a master plan
Yeah he's gonna make a fortune
Panning gold out of a bottle of Goldschlager
Shot by shot by shot

He gets on that great highway
Doesn't wanna' be anywhere
He's an easy mark o-ho, o-ho, o-ho
He's an easy mark

She lays down in the grass
On Strawberry Hill
He is there, smelling like nicotine and peanut butter
Ya' gotta' love her

Yeah she, she doesn't wanna' change this time
There's a hunger in her soul
For tater-tot casserole, with the crispy on the outside

She gets on that great highway
Doesn't wanna' be anywhere
She's an easy mark o-ho, o-ho, o-ho
She's an easy mark o-ho

I hate this world, this stupid world, this screwed-up world
I hate this world, this fucking world

5: Van Halen

I bought Van Halen One
It was the best damn record I ever owned
TG&Y, 1978
Two hand tapping guitar technique really got me off
Eruption, yeah
Ain't talkin' 'bout love, I'm on fire

Tomorrow may come, tomorrow may never come
Can't you hear Jamie cryin'?
She's runnin' with the devil, oh lord, oh lord

I bought Women and Children First
Fair Warning and Van Halen Two
Dance the night away
1984 was my favorite record, yeah, I wore it down
Might as well jump, might as well jump

Tomorrow may come, tomorrow may never come
Can't you hear Jamie cryin'?
She's runnin' with the devil, oh lord, oh lord

Is this what you wanted? Sammy Hagar?
Sammy Hagar? Is this what you wanted, man?
Dave lost his hairline, but you lost your cool, buddy
Can't drive 55, I'll never buy your lousy records again
Again, again, again, never again, no, no, no

Tomorrow may come, tomorrow may never come
Can't you hear Jamie cryin'?
she's runnin' with the devil, oh lord, oh lord

Jump jump jump jump jump jump jump, might as well jump
Jump jump jump jump jump jump jump, might as well jump

7: Nosering Girl

I, I met a girl
She was standing on the dance floor of the club
She was a very very pretty girl
So I went up and talked to her
And when you share your thoughts with someone
You feel close to them

Nosering Girl, I love you
Nosering Girl, I want you I want you I want you
Nosering Girl, I love you
Nosering Girl, I want you I want you I want you

Yeah, she had pretty hair and beautiful eyes
And a dalmation jacket, dalmation jacket
And she was the kind of girl who you would give up eating meat for
No more salami, no more steak or potatoes
Yeah you would walk on down to the health food store and
Buy hummus
And tabouli
And babaganoush
And rice cakes, rice cakes, rice cakes

Nosering Girl, I love you
Nosering Girl, I want you I want you I want you
Nosering Girl, I love you

An alcoholic
A weirdo
A freak

9: You're gonna be the one Who's Sorry

I got my mind set...

Got a new job at a radio station
But that won't help you at all
40,000 watts of maximum rock
But that won't help you at all
You think you've got everything but I've got news for you
You're gonna be the one who's sorry
You're gonna be the one who's sorry
You're gonna be the one who's sorry

You got a new girlfriend, a bitchin' new girlfriend
But she won't help you at all
Said I'd fight with the scene
She's a local rock queen
But that won't help you at all
You think that you've got it made but you've made one mistake
You're gonna be the one who's sorry
You're gonna be the one who's sorry
You're gonna be the one who's sorry

The free paper calls you a local celebrity
But that won't help you at all
You're such a big big deal you get in the clubs for free
But that won't help you at all
You think you've got everything but I've got news for you
You're gonna be the one who's sorry
You're gonna be the one who's sorry, yeah

You're gonna be the one who's sorry
You're gonna be the one who's sorry
