The Stress

The Stress
1. The Stress



The Stress
(verse 1)
the stress is bad
(the big man is in the wrong)
the stress is bad
(the little man's in pain)

out of time, I have to be at work
out of time, I cannot sleep a single wink
out of time, grab a quick bite to eat
out of time, ahh out of the fryer into the heat

this rat race turned into a marathon
everyone wants to get out of the bottom
perfectly in my waitress costume
low wages will lead me to doom

(chorus)
the stress is bad
the little man is always left to stew
the stress is bad
I'm losing hair and stuck like glue
the stress is bad
(end chorus)

(verse 2)
who cares if I can't pay my bills?
who cares if I lost all my will?
who cares if my boss is a bitch?
who cares if luxury is out of my reach?

the rich dangle a carrot in front of us
keeping their thumbs on our face
we should rise up and start a coup
but there's just so much work to do

(chorus)
the stress is bad
the little man is always left to stew
the stress is bad
I'm losing hair and stuck like glue
the stress is bad
who will come to my rescue?
why must you do what they request of you
a dollar won't save your soul
or keep you from getting old
or make the wrong into right
the stress is bad
the little man is always left to stew
the stress is bad
I'm losing hair and stuck like glue
the stress is bad
(end chorus)

(bridge)
ah ah ah ah
I'm on my break
I'm on my break
leave me alone
effects
leave me alone

(chorus)
from here on out
we'll have artistic freedom
the stress is bad
the little man is always left to stew
the stress is bad
I'm losing hair and stuck like glue
the stress is bad
we'll give the boss the finger
the stress is bad
effects
(end chorus)

Unrequited Finally

Unrequited Finally 1. Unrequited Finally Unrequited Finally (verse 1) you and I together made a solemn unspoken oath a secret never told is the very one best kept I shy away when our eyes suddenly meet like I've got a secret identity that I've just got to keep I long to get out of here and feel the spring air at night I can dream only of your long hair we snuck off when no one was looking now you act like you don't know me what is all of this? (chorus) I like that, but why do I like that? my first fantasy and my last taste of love my feelings awakened and fell from above my heart burst from happiness like an attack I like that, but why do I like that? you moved on, but I'm still stuck just chop it up to being romantically sick this is what's called unrequited love finally (end chorus) (verse 2) the lips you kissed are forever sealed shut but they pinned me against the tiled bathroom wall your friends raised eyebrows and asked questions you said not to worry because ...

Mystery Butterfly

Mystery Butterfly 1. Mystery Butterfly Mystery Butterfly (verse 1) open your shiny eyes in the silent night I swooped down into the mystery sneaking in alleyways without any sound of footsteps crouching my back in seductive black cat pose the moonlight carries a shadow on its back of my silhouette "come here" it smiles as it beckons to me it's tempting a contour of desire squirms in the sleepless city it wanders in the guise of a guardian angel to me it holds piece of love without a place to go in its arm as if they're precious treasures as you fall to sleep blissfully are you somewhere having a good dream ignorantly being happy as anyone would want the starry sky kisses you it's time for good children to go to bed to sleep (chorus) don't look at me, don't catch me don't try to be what's become of me I'm a butterfly who got lost in the dark freely singing with monochrome wings no one can see I'm hiding away in your heavy heart (end chorus) ...
