ALONE  (Bonet/Greenawalt)

 When I need you
Now what I really need
Is not to need you, so very much
And when you need me
That's what you really need
Is not to need me
So very much

I want to be alone
But not tonight
If that's alright
Later you'll be gone
I'll be alright, yeah, I'll be alright

I'm getting crazy
but what I really get
Is dull & lazy, when you're around
You're getting crazy
But what you never get
Is what I give you
When I'm around

I want to be alone
But not tonight
If that's alright
Later you'll be gone
I'll be alright, yeah, I'll be alright

BIGGER IS ALWAYS BETTER (Bonet/Greenawalt)

According to the Pope
And the Dalai Lama
Mother Theresa
And Madam Pajama
And according to the Bible
King James edition
Bigger ... is always better

Bigger ... is always better
Bigger ... is always better

You may be thinking while you're sitting there drinking
That some things are better left small
But when you put a lot of small things together
You get something bigger
And that's better!
Why tell a white lie when you can tell a whopper
Why be a bad guy when you can be a copper
Why be copper ... when you can be gold
Why be gold ... when you can be platinum
Why be platinum when you can be a diamond
Why be an island when you can be a continent
Why be incontinent when you can be a planet
Dammit!

Bigger ... is always better
Bigger ... is always better

The bigger it is ... the better it is
The taller it is ... the better it is
The higher it is ... the better it is
The longer it is ... the better it is
The fatter it is ... the better it is
The harder it is ... the better it is
The louder it is ... the better it is
The bigger it is ... the better it is

Unreleased

I feel fried today
Please make it go away
Yeah, yeah
I feel fricasseed
By your overwhelming need
Yeah, yeah

You're my hamburger man
You're my flash in the pan
You're a lamb being led to the slaughter
Have you heard about me
Have you heard about me
I'm the farmers' daughter

You'll be scattered...smothered...covered - lover
Chopped - topped and
Blackened...beaten and eaten
With a charming chardonnay

There's a chicken in the sea
Smells fishy to me
Yeah, yeah
Got your cookie in the jar
Now you've gone too far
Yeah, yeah

Gonna chop you up
Gonna fill me up
Don't you be so finicky
Gimme a light
Have another round
Don't forget to tip me

You'll be scattered...smothered...covered - lover
Chopped - topped and
Blackened...beaten and eaten

CHEAT ON YOU (Bonet/Clift)
Unreleased

Look me in the eyes
You know you heard me say it
Half a million times
I'm a broken record playing
And though I never follow through
It doesn't change the fact that when I'm laying next to you
I'm feeding you with lies

Here's the way it goes I dreamt that he was 6 foot 1
Or maybe she's a girl
She'd know how to have some fun
And though I never follow through
You really should believe me
And pretend I tell the truth
'Cause maybe I just could

I could cheat on you
I could deceive you
But I could never leave you
For another girl or guy
I could cheat on you
Beat you up
But I can never get enough of you
All I really want is you

Walking down the street
I meet my Latin lover
I'm imagining the heat
Of what we're doing to each other
And though I never follow through
You really should believe me
And pretend I tell the truth
'Cause maybe I just could

I could cheat on you
I could deceive you
But I could never leave you
For another girl or guy
I could cheat on you
Beat you up
But I can never get enough of you
All I really want is you
All I really want is ...

I read the Village Voice
I'm excited by the lonely hearts
They offer so much choice
And I just want to play the part
Of a lover with no strings
Roleplay, PVC or rubber
I'd do anything
And maybe I just ...    maybe I just ...
 Maybe I just would

I could cheat on you
I could deceive you
But I could never leave you
For another girl or guy
I could cheat on you
Beat you up
But I can never get enough of you
All I really want is you    All I really want is you
All I really want is ...

DON'T MAKE PROMISES (Bonet/Greenawalt)

Don't make promises that you can't keep
Don't make promises that you can't keep
You wind me up
I wind up with you
I'm a failure with a halo on my head
I'm no angel when I'm falling into, falling into, falling into, falling into bed

Don't make promises that you can't keep
Don't make promises that you can't keep
You wind me down now
Because I let you
Pour some kerosene upon your lucky break
There's a fire now you'll burn me at the, burn me at the, burn me at the stake

I SCREAM YOUR NAME (Bonet/Doss)

I'm not crazy... just emotionally challenged
I'm not lazy... impatient... so press me
Just wanna do it nice and slow
There's temptation... no... I'd feel too guilty
There's hibernation... investigation
On how I'm gonna do it to you

You hold me close, then you shut down
There's only you, when you're around
I breathe you in, I want you near
I scream your name
I scream your name...
But you don't hear

Maybe it's inertia... can't seem to stop myself
I'm not perverted... disturbed... off center
That's what my girlfriends tell me anyway

You give it here, you take it back
I stick around, cos it makes me laugh
I drink you in, I want you near
I scream your name
I scream your name

Step on a crack... to hell with superstition
I don't need a meal... you're my nutrition

You hold me close, then you shut down
There's only you, when you're around
I breathe you in, I want you near
I scream your name

You give it here, you take it back
I stick around, 'cause it makes me laugh
I drink you in, I want you near
I scream your name... (x4)
But you don't hear

Happy - sad - infamous -mad
Quaaludian benze-dream
Nightmare - dilemma - solution
It's always something with you

LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE (Bonet/Greenawalt)

Let's not point the finger
Strictly between me and you
Not knowing all the details
Only hurts when I breathe

If you don't like it ... lie
Tell me you love it ... lie
If you don't like it ... lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie

It's not that I can't take it
It's not that it could hurt
My skin is thin and cranky
A prima donna up my skirt

If you don't like it ... lie
Tell me you love it ... lie
If you don't like it ... lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie

Take it, want it, give it, got it
Take it, want it, give it, got it
Take it, want it, give it, got it
Take it, want it, give it, got it

If you don't like me ... lie
Tell me you love me ... lie
If you don't like me ... lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie

If you don't like me ...

LIFE ISN'T FAIR (Bonet/Doss)
Unreleased

So you can't stand yourself
Handing out all your lines
So you can't stop yourself
Life is a waste of time
So you can hang yourself

You will be all the rage
So if you shoot someone
You will improve your aim
You're insane
Or in pain
Or to blame

Sometimes it just isn't fair
Sometimes it just isn't fair
Sometimes it just isn't fair 
Who cares...


If you carry the weight of the world on your head
Your back will break
If you can't let it go shut your mouth up instead
Don't start to shake
When the man in the moon turns into a bear
It's not so nice

Change your clothes, change your mind, change your hair
All your life
All your life
All your life

Sometimes it just isn't fair
Sometimes it just isn't fair
Sometimes life just isn't fair

Who cares...

OUR LOVE'S GOT AN ATTITUDE (Bonet/Barratt)

He's kool, he's hot
He's everything you're not
He kicks, he rocks
Electric aftershocks

He's real, he's a dream
He's radical, he's extreme
He rules, he's got vibe
He makes me come alive

Our love's got an attitude

He's a brickhouse
He's letting it all hang out
He acts tough
He's gentle and then he's rough

He's lean and he's long,
He never does me wrong
He's not smart,
Well, let's face it, it's not about smart

Our love's got an attitude

Your body speaks for you when you're in love
There are no weaknesses when you're in love
Nobody gives a s*** when they're in love
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love

And the skinny white boys sing ...

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo,
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

He's kool, he's hot
He's everything you're not
He's impossible to resist
It's a shame that he doesn't exist!

PHAT, STOOPID, TOTALLY DEF (Bonet/Barratt)

It's alright, it's OK
You're totally set for life
We're young, you're beautiful
Your Daddy's rich & so are his wives
One thing I can tell you
I'm totally down with that...

You're phat, stoopid, totally def and I love you
Don't know what it means, but it's totally true
You're phat, stoopid, totally def and I love you

It's alright, it's OK
You're in the top 10 of your class
You're built, you're bred
To let everyone kiss your ass
Don't know why I love you
Just know that I do 

Cause you're phat, stoopid, totally def and I love you
You're phat, stoopid, totally def and I love you
You're phat, stoopid, totally def and I love you
You're phat, stoopid, totally def and I love you

"Do you know what I'm saying..."
You're saying
"Do you know what I'm saying..."

You're phat, stoopid, totally def and I love you

PLEASE DIE FOR ME (Bonet/Greenawalt)

Apples and cherries
And wild blackberries
Sunshine and breezes
And wild she teases

Follow me now
No-one will see
Follow me now
No-one will see
Please die for me, for me

Roses and brandy
And peppermint candy
Someone is spilling
And quiet she's killing

Follow me now
Down to the spring
Follow me now
Don't say a thing, don't say a thing
Please die for me, for me

Please die for me

SMALL TALK (Bonet/Garnham/Knight)
Unreleased

How's the weather? - what my sign?
What's your major? - what's on your mind?
Do you know who's winning? - what's the score?
Is your mind drifting? - can you take any more?
Have you ever floated? - did she get the job?
Who's the drummer? - have you ever been robbed?
Venice is sinking - we ate there last - tell me what's next
Give me the trash...

Just look at her hair - he just bought a Porsche
I'm learning Swahili - she's going up north
Was it good as the book? - have you ever read Vonnegut?
Who is God? - can you make any sense of it?
It's only a game - he was only 45
What's in a name? - you should never ask why
Who'd you vote for? - what is vermouth?
Were you born in a barn? - tell me the truth

We're going around with what we say
We're moving our mouths up and down all day
Talking loud - talking small
Sometimes I can't hear you at all...

So how 're you doing? - did it make you cry?
He's a total jerk - let's give it a try
Did he ask you out? - how 'bout a bite?
It's almost over - do you wanna fight?
Who are you? - what's she doing with him?
The P.A.'s too loud - we went out on a whim
Coffee makes me nervous - no need to shout
It's smoky in here - there's a lot of it about
There's a lot of it about...

We're going around with what we say
We're moving our mouths up and down all day
Talking loud - talking small
Sometimes I can't hear you at all...(x2)

Do you think it will rain? - blue is your color
Don't make um like they used to - war is a bummer
Don't you love the commercials? - they're having a sale
What's your hobby? - it's as big as a whale
Can you tell me the time? - come here often?
Life's a bitch - ever swim with a dolphin?
There's a new one from Spielberg - the dog don't bite
Keep it simple - keep it light...

We're going around with what we say
We're moving our mouths up and down all day
Talking loud - talking small
Sometimes I can't hear you at all...(x 3)

SUNSHINE ( Bonet/Greenawalt )

I want a riot - I want some peace
I want to cry but not about you

I want to be kool - I want new eyes
I want my legs to wrap around you

I want to be charming - I want to be crude
I wanna be a masterpiece - I wanna be rude
I want to see you on the ocean sea
I want sunshine all the time .... sunshine all the time

I wanna get naked - I want a place to live
I wanna get famous - I wanna get famous
I want to f*** you all the time
That's why I need ...

THE GIRLFRIENDS OF DORIAN GRAY (Bonet/Barratt)

She don't have to be too tall
She don't have to be too small
She don't have to be anyone at all
She don't have to have a brain
She could even be insane
Just released from cell block 3 or maybe 4

The first one looks like the last one
Looks like the ones in-between

The girlfriends of Dorian Gray
He picks them up at night and he's gone the next day
The girlfriends of Dorian Gray
How can anybody be that way

Looks down his nose and up her dress
And she dissolves to his caress
He tells each one they are an Amazon princess
He drives her wild then drives her home
Gives her a number, not his own
He's looking past her for the next one to impress
The lonely and the lusty
And the ones in-between ... you know what I mean

The girlfriends of Dorian Gray
He loves them and he leaves them and he's gone the next day
The girlfriends of Dorian Gray
How can anybody be that way ... hey, hey
How can anybody act that way

The mirror is clearer, with both your faces nearer
One looks like Methuselah, the other like James Dean
You know what I mean ...

The girlfriends of Dorian Gray
He loves them and he leaves them and he's gone the next day
The girlfriends of Dorian Gray
How can anybody be that way ... hey, hey

How could anybody be that
Why would anybody be that
How could anybody be that way

TIME TO MAKE A PLAN (Bonet/Greenawalt)

I can drive you insane
But you already are
I can drive you far away
And leap from your moving car

As I lie by the side of the road waiting for the man
You'll be speeding all confused

Time to make a plan, time to make it
Time to make a plan, time to make it

On a snowflake day
Melting on the ground
I keep getting in your room
While you set fire to the town
As I stand in your room
Up in flames smoking like a man
You'll be burning all confused

Time to make a plan, time to make it
Time to make a plan, time to make it

Time to make a plan, time to make it
Time to make a plan, time to make it

Time to make a plan, time to make it
Time to make a plan, time to make it

USE ME (Bonet/Epstein)
Unreleased

I know it sounds perverse
I've always been a believer in life
But I can be coerced
Into doing things that just might not seem right
Take off your kid gloves and take your best shot
How will we know if it's right or we're not

Use me - take advantage real good
Use me - like you know you could
I don't care if it's bad cause it feels so good
So use me - use me

I want - what I need - I can't fake it any more
Take me - if you please
I'll show you mine if you show me yours - so
Take off your kid gloves and take your best shot
How will we know if it's right or we're not
How will we know if it's right or we're not

Use me - take advantage real good
Use me - like you know you should
I don't care if it's bad cause it feels so good
So use me - use me

I've sometimes been accused
Of searching for things that could only get worse
I've done it - all before
At this rate I should be well rehearsed
So let's hoist a few to all of our ex's
To all of the flames that didn't burn bright
Can't stand any more of this walking on eggshells
Pretending to be - so damn polite
Pretending to be - so f***ing polite

Use me - take advantage real good
Use me - like you know you should
I don't care if it's bad cause it feels so good
So use me - take advantage real good
Use me - like you know you should
I don't care if it's bad cause it hurts so good
So use me - use me

YOU THINK YOU'RE SOMETHING (Bonet/Clift)
Unreleased

Who are you
Walking in the room with your head on fire
Who are you
Starting it all over again

Tell me who are you
Did you think that I'd fall down at your feet when you open your mouth
And all that comes out, is something about, a room with a view

Who are you
Never heard you ask for my point of view
Who are you
You call yourself the man in the moon

Tell me who are you
Did you think all the girls want to kill themselves over you
And all they can do, is stand in a queue to get out of the room. .... ooh

Ooh

You think you're something you're not
I got news for you, hey, you ain't so hot
You think you're something you're not
You think you're something, oh hey, you think you're something . . .
You're not!

Who are you
Shrinking up the numbers down to one
Who are you
Using all the air in the place
Tell me who are you, did you think that I'd tear off all my clothes to get my body close to you
You look like a dream, but you'll never clean
The egg off your face . . . hey hey

Chorus

Solo

Well I've stripped you to the bone
And there's one thing very clear
All your sins you can't atone
And you hold yourself too dear
Your philosophy stops with your latest Swatch watch and your next glass of beer . . . oh dear!

Chorus
