Cameo 04:16
I wrote this song Waiting for you To put on your make up In your dressing room You’re always soaking up The lime-light every single night And I’m left standing off stage right You like to keep me outta sight Cause I’m just an extra in the movie adaptation of your life Lonely boy number two spends all night dreaming of you And when the credits roll at the end of the show I’ll be remembered, remembered as just a cameo I used to have a leading part But now I’m just an understudy to your heart Still gotta memorize all those lines That on the silver screen would make you fall in love with me Cause I’m just an extra in the movie adaptation of your life Lonely boy number two spends all night dreaming of you And when the credits roll at the end of the show I’ll be remembered, remembered as just a cameo It’s a sad sad situation, I’ve done all I can to get your attention But you’re blinded by stage light, can’t hear my curtain call And I just wanted to shine next to you is all Oh that’s all Now the red carpet is your home, and I’m stuck here all alone Watching you talk to all of your producers on the phone Can’t help thinking that I didn’t try hard enough To make you see my name in lights Cause I’m still an extra in the movie adaptation of your life Lonely boy #2 spends all night dreaming of you And when the credits roll at the end of the show I’ll be remembered, yeah I’ll be remembered, I’ll be remembered As an extra in the movie adaptation of your life Lonely boy number two spends all night dreaming of you And when the credits roll at the end of the show I’ll be remembered, remembered as just a cameo

Well here the story goes although it’s kind of old I’ll tell it like it’s new And all you people listening you’ll never ever know If I’m lying or if I’m telling the truth So I guess you’ll just have to put your trust in me A California twenty-something who would never lie Unless it helps me Start with black and white so we can take our time As we color in the empty space By the number, so you can know the color That was already picked with perfect taste Yeah that symmetry it’s killing me and I want someone else to blame Besides the man who wakes up each and every morning just the same And he still believes his trust in God will see him through the end Being blinded by a light’s alright as long as you can sleep at night What the hell was that that just came over me? Well, I couldn’t say. You must say impulsive but I’m really just afraid that I’ll start spending every single day the exact same way and I won’t even have a say of where I work, or to what ends I won’t even be able to choose my friends. So I’ll up and change the song, make it easy to sing along you can’t stop me if you wanted to Now we’re back and mad as hell Can you tell by the way I yell and the flashy way I dress? Now I’m having more fun than I’ve ever had before Yes I’m having more fun than I’ve ever had before Now we’re back at the start doesn’t seem we got very far What just happened there? Nobody knows and I don’t care. I’m already over this song Fooled you all along and folks don’t you know it’d be so lame If all of my songs had to stay the same I don’t want my songs to stay the same I don’t want my songs to stay the same I don’t want my songs to stay the same I don’t want my songs to stay

I’ve been asked so many times before How I keep all my worries from knockin’ down the door Well it’s a carefree state of mind And I can show you how if you give me the time It’s an old school kind of philosophy I just do what I want the world to do back to me It’s as simple as the light of day So, come on be a karma kid and let the music take you away And if you think you can get down With paying it forward and getting it back around Then my friend you’re in good company Come on, sanctify your soul and be a karma kid with me Oh it’s a cycle of endless love That I bet you only thought existed in imagination But it’s just so easy man it’ll get you by That supernatural high It’s an old school kind of philosophy I just do what I want the world to do back to me It’s as simple as the light of day So, come on be a karma kid and let the music take you away Yeah if you think you can get down With paying it forward and getting it back around Then my friend you’re in good company Come on, sanctify your soul And be a karma kid with me They always ask me why I’m so carefree Said my philosophy is to live like I’m in Paris So, bonjour monsieur, don’t you just wanna live like I do? Not a worry in the world, see I could teach you here are my rules Fuck what anybody else says, I rule. And screw a diet, go ahead, eat some fried foods If you had a bad day man why brood? Just turn that frown upside down and just smile dude You know the sayings what goes around comes around Give a little, get a little, you go down hey I go down To put it plainly, what all that it’s saying is that Karma is a bitch until you treat it like a lady So, here’s what you do yeah you tally all your moves up When you were a good guy and when you were a douche Then you add ‘em all up and see which has the most marks in it That’s how you find out if you can be a karma kid

Escalator 04:48
Do you remember the first time that we danced outside? We were just two kids looking for a place to hide. We both told our folks that we were driving somewhere else And ended up at the beach away from everybody else But that was a year ago, and we just couldn’t hold on Cause I went to Boston and you stayed home and moved on And I guess you’re happy with whoever People say you’re cute together And I tried to find someone new But found I’m still all tangled up in you Woah run around and around, but I never see where Like I’m trying to catch an escalator stair Maybe someday you’ll come back and light that spark We can close our eyes, aim for the sky, and take a shot in the dark. Do you remember the first time we danced in your room? To that British band’s song bout love leaving us too soon And with the speakers low so your parents wouldn’t hear “I think this song’s about us, babe” I whispered in your ear. Now next year you’re off to Michigan, and I’ll, I’ll be stuck here missing you all over again And I guess you’re happy with whoever People say you’re cute together And I tried to find someone new But found I’m still all tangled up in you Woah run around and around, but I never see where Like I’m trying to catch an escalator stair Maybe someday you’ll come back and light that spark We can close our eyes, aim for the sky, and take a shot, take a shot in the dark And I guess you’re happy with whoever People say you’re cute together And I tried to find someone new But found I’m still all tangled up in you Woah run around and around, but I never see where Like I’m trying to catch an escalator stair Maybe someday you’ll come back, light that spark We can close our eyes, aim for the sky

I Work Alone 03:47
People tell me that I’m too thin I just don’t let things get under my skin And all the subway soldiers lining the wall Every one seems to trip and fall Just like I do, I do, I do, I do, I do And we all walk around with our eyes on the ground And I try not to stare cause I’m told not to care Just pretend that nobody's there But, what do we miss going on like this? It’s cool to be bored but is it cool to be ignored? I wanna realize a secret in the Brooklyn skies And it feels like I’ve been looking my whole life Flashed before my eyes, I nearly died I can’t get lucky every time And time again, it’s just a matter of when I fall asleep standing on my own two feet And I realize a secret in the Brooklyn skies I had to trade the headlights for the fireflies And realize a secret in the Brooklyn skies I had to trade the headlights, trade the headlights Trade the headlights, trade the headlights Trade the headlights, trade the headlights I want the feeling that I’m reckless and free And I don’t worry, worry about anything cause I’m free, finally, free to lose my mind And I want it. I want it all the time Til my life is gone, my life is gone My life is gone and I work alone I work alone My life is gone, my life is gone My life is gone and I work alone I work alone. I do, I do, I do, I do, I do I do, I do, I do, I do, I do I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do

Did you write it in those letters that I never read? Cause I was made to move nice and slow And you were born, born to lose control Reckless child of rock ‘n roll I love you baby, yes I love you baby Well, I love you, yeah and I wanna show ya Check it.

I'm Out 04:05
You underdressed, overrated prima donna little girl Think with your short skirt you could rule the world But I’m tired of your mascara'd eyes, your little lip pout I’m leaving you, babe I’m out As we drive around town you look at other guys Pull your sunglasses down as you wink your eye And I don’t give a shit that you’re hanging out the passenger side I’m waving goodbye, babe I’m out I kicked you out on the pavement Poor little princess ain’t used to this kinda treatment But you got your red stilletos, daddy’s credit card I can tell your life is gonna be hard You’ll be all dramatic, delete my number from your phone Bitch about me behind my back with your friends from home Try and turn the whole world against me, but they can see right through Cause everyday people know you’re bad news I kicked you out on the pavement Poor little princess ain’t used to this kinda treatment But you got your red stilletos, daddy’s credit card I can tell your life is gonna be hard I don’t need you, want you You were so wrong, now your shit’s out on the lawn I don’t need you want you I’m leaving you, babe I’m out.

Highway or heaven I only need one I’ve never been a greedy man The road is calling and my wings have fallen I’m homeless and happy again I’ve read the scriptures and witnessed a rapture Can’t say that I was impressed. If I had my druthers we’d pray to each other And hope our faith can stand So if you’re a sinner then join me for dinner We’ll be judged by our company And we’ll talk of angels with bright silver bangles That shine a light down on you and me You and me You and me How come only just some of all of God’s people get to stay in heaven? What’s heaven? And why’s it so great anyway? Say, I can find heaven in just about any way. Just about any way.
