Girlfriend

Walking into parties on your own
It's getting old now
Twice around the room and out alone
It feels so cold now

And I'm probably showing up
Just about the time you leave

Girlfriend, girlfriend
Looking for a little bit of something sweet
Girlfriend, girlfriend
Wherever you are is where I'd like to be

Waking up alone and knowing how
I'm gonna spend the day
In cd racks and Java Jacks
The afternoon just slides away

And you're probably sitting near
With something you don't want to read

Girlfriend, girlfriend
Looking for a little bit of something sweet
Girlfriend, girlfriend
Trying to find a little bit of sympathy
I get the feeling you're a lot like me

I see Paris flights are cheap these days
But I know how it's gonna go
I'll be wearing out the same two phrases

I don't smoke
I'm here alone

Walking into parties on your own
It's getting old now
Twice around the room and out alone
It feels so cold now

Girlfriend, girlfriend
Looking for a little bit of something sweet
Girlfriend, girlfriend
Wherever you are is where I'd like to be

Girlfriend, girlfriend
Trying to find a little bit of sympathy
Girlfriend, girlfriend
Why do I get the feeling you're a lot like me
I get the feeling you're a lot like me

Ordinary Life

Well I looked for the life fantastic
Cos I read it in a magazine
What I got was myself as a plastic figurine

And the happily ever after
I traded everything to see
Now my scene is the snow on a static TV screen

Lord I can dream of an ordinary life
Where nothing particularly weird is going down
Lord I can dream of an ordinary time
Where nothing particularly hard is spinning us around

Well now read me a bedtime story
And be sure that it's nice and sweet
Cos I don't think I can take any more reality

With a peacefully ever after
For me and my little treat
And I don't want nobody saying "We'll wait and see"

Lord I can dream of an ordinary life
Where nothing particularly weird is going down
Lord I can dream of an ordinary time
Where nothing particularly hard is spinning us around

Over My Head

Long ago I was told there were riches inside of me
Someone old hid the gold and the finding was my affair
In those days when my ears heard a story my mind believed
So I searched with my greed in the sunshine for all to see there

I'm in over my head in this game
Over my head
And I'm afraid I'm never gonna find my way back to where I've been

Yes you know many tried none succeeded my mind to train
When the fools came to lay down their money I laughed, uncool
Saw the mouth of the whale just in time to go down the drain
Now I float with my boat in the darkness and play the fool

I'm in over my head in this game
Over my head
And I'm afraid I'm never gonna find my way back to where I've been

I'm in over my head in this game
Over my head
And I'm afraid I'm never gonna find my way back to where I've been
