Take two placebos and call me lame Lyrics
Can't you see my soul worn on the record sleeve It's goin up for sale as soon as it gets saved Interrogation blues, once again I lose You don't get to magnify my insecurities (I'll fuck your mom) You don't get to site and sing my unhip-oracies (Not for sale) Take two placebos then you can call me lame Walk
Can't you see my soul worn on the record sleeve It's goin up for sale as soon as it gets saved Interrogation blues, once again I lose You don't get to magnify my insecurities (I'll fuck your mom) You don't get to site and sing my unhip-oracies (Not for sale) Take two placebos then you can call me lame Walk
Written by John Mellencamp
Well I've lived and breathed and been disbelieved
In these small town streets too long
I've held nothin' but aces and been many places
And hung on the corner 'til dawn
But my hands have been tied
To a life I've been denied
I'm just a small town boy bein' used like a toy
And workin' a nine to five
Well I worked like a fool 'til after done with high school
Just to form a rock and rollin' band
But the streets were exploding and my life I was decoding
Had a dream I couldn't understand
And I work it out everyday
For no fun and very little pay
I'm just a smal town boy bein' used l
Christmas Hangover Lyrics
The holidays are over, you've gained twenty pounds The cat's choking on tinsel, pine needles stalk the ground There are no cards in the mailbox, just a stack of bills Yes, the holidays are over and you are feeling ill Have a happy Christmas hangover It's the most miserable time of the year The eggnog

And doin' what other people say
Well I've drooled and fooled and been ridiculed
For havin' dreams just above my reach
And I've lied and died and tried suicide
For all the things you people wanna preach
But I always had to turn the other way
When I heard those homefolks say
(They say) You're just a small town boy bein' used like a toy
And livin' on a day to day
But you must believe that when I walk down the tracks
All those young girls fall back and say
There goes that sleek young silhouette
He don't drive no Corvette
but he stings just like a Sting Ray
And that's my only redemption in this house

That keeps me from simply blowin' it all away
'Cause when I walk down the street in the hot summer heat
I say, God don't take this away
Well by the end of the day, all the kids would go play
And I'd come staggering back home
With a dream in my hand and a master plan
That wouldn't leave my mind alone
Well I compromised all my schemes
And I fluctuated all my dreams
I'm just a small town boy bein' used like a toy
And nothing is like it really seems
But what a fool I must seem to have all these dreams
And try to live them all through
It's like a slap in your face, with a mercurochrome taste

Something about this just isn't right. There's something about you that I don't like. How could you do this to my friend? Why is this girl even on my bed? And I ask myself if this is the right thing for me to do. And to think that at one point I was interested in you. <font size=1>Thanks to <b>krazykrnskater87@hot

And it seems kinda strange that nobody came
To the game that I have put myself through
And when I walk down the street in the hot summer heat
I say, what the hell can I do
Well I keep hopin' and wishin' that these romantic positions
Gonna help me hide all this pain
And all the hurt that I've felt underneath my leather studded belt
Of not findin' my fortune and fame
Some day I'll blow 'em away with the things that I sing and I say
I'm just a small town boy bein' used like a toy
And waitin' on my pay day
I'm just a small town boy bein' used like a toy
And waitin' on my pay day
