BETA MALE
Will I find in my mind the nerve I crave?
Will I be brave, keep the faith, and leave the cave?
I don't have money or much time in the world
Still I'm planning to save you from imminent danger
Will I climb and defy Mt. Everest?
Will I swim on a limb? I'll never rest
Until I hear your voice on the phone
I'm alone, I'm alone I'm alone, Lone Ranger
I'm gonna go where you go, Penelope
Wherever the discus may land
I gotta perfect my flawed anatomy
I'll be your Vitruvian man
I'm gonna go, go, go go on a rodeo
I'm gonna go, go, go, go to the final show
Will I dig and unearth sarcophagus?
Will that stop me from being anonymous?
I'm not that famous no I don't belong
Still I'm chuggin' along to absolute danger
Will I face a brigade of renegades?
Never fear, I am here, your Beta Male
I'm not good-looking nor Sylvester Stallone
I'm alone, I'm alone I'm alone, Lone Ranger
I'm gonna go where you go, Penelope
Whatever is writ in the sand
I gotta perfect my flawed anatomy
I'll be your Vitruvian man
I'm gonna go, go, go, go on a rodeo
I'm gonna go, go, go, go to the final show

Forget About Her

FORGET ABOUT HER
My, oh my, there are a million guys
Who've set their sights on Lorelei
Should one pursue
Or should one just forget about her?
My, oh my, there's mystery in her eyes
The boys will try, but I'm quite shy
I'll catch the flu
Stay in bed and forget about her
My, oh my, she makes me feel alive
I can't describe what's in my mind
It's not a funny thing
To be so in love with a girl
My, oh my, I really dig her style
Mind if I breathe out a sigh?
Should one just hang around,
come close and hold hands with a girl?
My, oh my, her stare is like a knife
I can't define to save my life
What kind of pretty face
can take me away from the world?
My, oh my, the object of desire
My beating heart, you are such a liar
Save me from hurricanes
that take me away from the world

HOW THE NUMBERS WORKS
You, I reckon you misread the written signs
Well, here's a record of the times you were unkind
Please kindly step behind the dotted line
I'll give you credit for the times you've tried
To give a final answer to the question that bothered my mind
If we can shake the world
And find out in the summer
Now that's how the numbers work
If we can fake it
And pretend we're past the trauma
Now that's how the numbers work
Sunshine
It's living in the mind
(In the mind)
You, you've stolen diamonds and committed crimes
Well, here's a demonstration of what I can find
Please make me pocket all the golden lines
I'll give you leverage for the times you've tried
To give a final answer to the question that bothered my mind
Sunshine
It's living in the mind
(In the mind)

Joan
Where did the magic go?
It is so tragic when I know
You're barely legal, Joan
It felt so evil, Joan
Joan
I'm lost and lonely, Joan
I hope I won't end up alone
My one and only Joan
I hope I won't end up alone
Joan
Joan
Don't feel so frantic, Joan
It felt romantic all night long
You're really special, Joan
Just don't go mental, Joan
Joan
I'm lost and lonely, Joan
I hope I won't end up alone
My one and only Joan
I hope I won't end up alone

ELLEN
Ellen hit me in the back
And then she told me to relax
And she said,
"Hey man, can we just stay friends?"
And I was really quite in shock
I think she didn't give a fuck
So I said,
"Amen, whatever's fine then."
(I tell myself:)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
No oh oh oh
No oh oh oh
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
No oh oh oh oh
No oh oh oh oh
Ellen asked me to a drink
As I was visiting my shrink
And I said,
"Hey man, I'll meet you in ten."
And I was feeling quite morose
As I was getting really close
And then I saw them,
She brought this girlfriend
(I tell myself:)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
No oh oh oh
No oh oh oh
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
No oh oh oh oh
No oh oh oh oh
Losing a lover
In bleak, bleak weather
I'm a deflated balloon
I melt like butter in cruel summer
My blood is turning maroon
I run for the hills and hide
'Cause the thought of her kisses will make me die
Ellen told me it's okay
'Cause all along well she was gay
And she said,
"Hey dude, I think I'm lesbian."
And I was feeling really glum
And I was reaching for a gum
Until the girls said,
"How about a threesome?"
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
No oh oh oh
No oh oh oh
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
No oh oh oh oh
No oh oh oh oh

SWIMMERS (HEART & MIND)
Heart and mind
What have you been doing?
Repressing me all the time
Heart and mind
But all the things you've said
were great and fine, fine, fine
Oh my heart and mind
Lost and found
The lovers I've gathered
They're swimming the final mile
Lost and found
but never really back inside
my heart and mind
Oh my heart and mind
I swim the rivers and the oceans of my sadness
I'll never sink or be defeated by this madness
It's all illusion so you better think of something else you would love
I swim the rivers and the oceans of my sadness
I'll never sink or be defeated by this madness
It's all illusion so you better think of something else you would love
Telltale signs
in every endeavour
appear so I check the files
I have found
That all the things you've said
were clever lines, lines, lines
from your heart and mind
But in your eyes
I'm getting emotions and
oceans of tears and lies
You've returned
But never really back inside
my heart and mind
Oh my heart and mind
I swim the rivers and the oceans of my sadness
I'll never sink or be defeated by this madness
It's all illusion so you better think of something else you would love
I swim the rivers and the oceans of my sadness
I'll never sink or be defeated by this madness
It's all illusion so you better think of something else you would love
I jump to the water
And swim past the tides
I swim towards the altar
To my black-hearted bride
You are such a riot
Though it's quite a quiet affair
I'll keep you in my pocket
As we rocket towards our lair
We're just two lovers
We're dressed up in dreams
I swim the rivers and the oceans of my sadness
I'll never sink or be defeated by this madness
It's all illusion so you better think of something else

YOU'RE SO CRUEL, STEPHANIE
She was a twenty-year-old
She was a time bomb
She was a Japanese bitch
And she was one of them
She is a reptile
She's a nymph and she is sinister
I don't believe in love
Let's kill the minister
Let's burn her effigy
Like she's Joan of Arc
Enough of moments
Holding hands in the park
'Cos you're so cruel, Stephanie
Get out of my heart
'Cos you're so cruel, Stephanie
Get out of my heart
'Cos you're so cruel, Stephanie
Get out of my heart
'Cos you're so cruel, Stephanie
Get out of my heart
She was a twenty-year-old
She was a virgin
She was a massacre
With her perfume on
She is the devil and the saint
Upon my banister
I don't believe in love
Let's kill the minister
Let's burn her effigy
Like she's Joan of Arc
Enough of moments
Holding hands in the park
'Cos you're so cruel, Stephanie
Get out of my heart
'Cos you're so cruel, Stephanie
Get out of my heart
'Cos you're so cruel, Stephanie
Get out of my heart
'Cos you're so cruel, Stephanie
Get out of my heart
One step at a time
I am cleansing my mind
I'll just remember all things
And the hate that you bring
Today, I'm steppin' out
One step at a time
I am cleansing my mind
I'll just remember all things
And the hate that you bring
Today, I'm steppin' out
Heartbreak of mine, I really love you so
Heartbreak of mine, I really love you so
Heartbreak of mine, I really love you so
See you in another life

ART SCHOOL LOVER (DEATH TO ORDINARY GIRLS)
Are all her clothes in shades of black-and-white?
And can she play the bassoon?
Does she watch cartoons?
Death to ordinary girls
I want someone from another world
You're all I need, my art school lover
Is she weird and does she talk about
something else aside from bags?
Does she wear name tags?
Death to ordinary girls
I want someone who likes The Carpenters
You're all I need, my art school lover
Because you're my forever summer
Ooh, for every Halloween
She dresses up as Sigmund Freud
I can't believe what's happening
She's happening: my eccentric girl
Does she hang out in the library?
Review the movies of Truffaut?
She into UFOs?
Death to ordinary girls
I want someone whose name's not Jennifer
You're all I need, my art school lover
I hope she doesn't dance to R&B
I hope she really hates cars
and hangin' out in bars
Death to ordinary girls
I want someone who's into Salinger
You're all I need, my art school lover
Because you're my forever summer

VOLCANOES (THE ONES NAMED AFTER YOU)
I needed sympathy
You gave me a review
I gained the power
And the need for something new
I dream of holidays
The ones named after you
Do you feel the same way too?
Do you feel the same way too?
I’ll eat the magic
And the music in your eye
Forget the logic
And we’ll never say goodbye
I dream of sunken ships
The ones named after you
Do you feel the same way too?
Do you feel the same way too?
All I’m afraid of is the lonely life
I’ve got to find myself a lovely wife
Baby, all I want is you
You really got me
Oh yes, it’s true
I have a sadness that is cold as ice
I’ve got to find myself somebody nice
Baby, all I want is you
You really got me
Oh yes, it’s true
You are my symphony
When running out of juice
You grant me powers
You’ll forever be my muse
I dream of heavy rains
The ones named after you
Do you feel the same way too?
Do you feel the same way too?
You’ll be my Guinevere
I’ll be the son of Zeus
If you’re my mirror
Then I’ll never be confused
I dream volcanoes
The ones named after you
Do you feel the same way too?
Do you feel the same way too?
All I’m afraid of is the lonely life
I’ve got to find myself a lovely wife
Baby, all I want is you
You really got me
Oh yes, it’s true
I have a sadness that is cold as ice
I’ve got to find myself somebody nice
Baby, all I want is you
You really got me
Oh yes, it’s true
