Track Name: Don't Play Hootie
that's cool
we don't have to be best friends
or we don't have to be friends at all
I can go back to my room
grab my guitar
and make it do this

hey we can play all night
but we don't play Hootie
we can play whatever you like
if you like my solos
one day we'll get it right
then we'll get the hell out of this town
so let's play it out tonight
before my dad gets home

hey you
I know I called you a freak
I think you might be a freak like me
so let's do it
let's get to it
who cares if they boo it
grab your guitar
and we can do this

hey we can play all night
but we don't play Hootie
we can play whatever you like
if you like my solos
one day we'll get it right
then we'll get the hell out of this town
so you don't get bored
my friend taught me this brand new chord

we don't play hootie
I know a guy who plays the drums
well okay he's got some
well okay his dad plays drums
but his dad's never home so we can sneak in there

hey we can play all night
but we don't play Hootie
we can play whatever you like
if you like my solos
one day we'll get it right
then we'll get the hell out of this town
so let's play it out tonight
before his dad comes home
but we don't play hootie
Track Name: Not Enough Fingers (I Was So Sure)
when it started I was sure that the people who needed me
knew what I was for
but the people eluded me
can't point the finger cause there just aren't enough fingers for you all
too late for pushing you have seen the last of me

CHORUS
she likes the same things (I was so sure)

I can find my way around without tripping falling down
like the old or the infirm
like the tethers to my old world
if you can't sleep then go away
I've been sleeping here for days
be sure to wake me when you work it out

I have grown so proud
but not proud enough that I won't let you pay
I have gone so far
but not far enough to stay

they can't lose me in a crowd
if they've even noticed me I'd be surprised
they're not half as sharp as me
if she plays games it's not so strange
it's tiger playing with it's food
the only rule I ever knew is don't get caught out
Track Name: Next Year
none of us is old enough
to ever have a bad idea
I brought the vodka and hair dye and you
your brought all the beer

Steven's praying to his saviour
saying buddy can you save us
from doing anything stupid
like we did last year
cause this is next year
yeah it's next year
it's gonna be our year
after that I'm out of here

none of us knew Geoff that long
but somehow he just gets it on
with the girl that I've been crushing on
between the other girls

as soon as look around he's gone
I guess he just got his new years on
but he shows up right before it's dawn
and says I don't know how I'm high
is it already next year?
yeah it's next year
it's gonna be our year
after that I'm out of here
Track Name: Put the Stars in Line
I've got a hollow heart
but it won't break so easy
cause it's a perfect sphere
you won't get in here

so take your running start
and take a running jump
if it only took courage
then that's all we'd pack, son

we can put the stars in line

I never leave the house
until the house is ready
if I'd heard you started
I would have stepped out early

so now we'll build an ark
and pack in all our worries
there's no right from the start
I know that strikes you as funny

we can put the stars in line

so head for the front line
don't wait for
there's no time
I looked for the next sign
Track Name: Clothes That Don't Fit
day after day I'm forgetting to say
something new, something nice
how are you what do you like?
shall we do something tonight?
but this don't seem the jacket I thought I'd been fitted for
it's tight round the neck and I swear I could use these arms before you tied me in
yeah, I guided your hand

don't tell me I'm wrong
in such a pretty song

cause you don't always get what it is you want
put it in a list, doesn't mean it's bought
we can sing about it, I can shut this door
cause I don't always get what it is you want

jeans that won't close, a shirt that's mostly holes
shoes that only bind
a serviceable jersey in a colour that a clown would walk right by
we had made-to-fit plans
then we bought this kit-set second-hand
we were looking at a long-term finance plan
but neither of us noticed when we stopped holding hands

clothes I thought so fine
tighter all the time

cause you don't always get what it is you want
put it in a list doesn't mean it's bought
we can sing about it I can shut this door
cause I don't always get what it is you want
Track Name: Building a Fire
bless the little times
in between you fears and mine
there is no respite from going nowhere
we can keep it warm
if only to stay true to form
and not be so alone in going nowhere

but the fire we are building won't bring comfort
and fuel it isn't safe to leave around
angel you have got me in your hands
I don't mind the walk if you will fly again

rest your fading voice
don't pretend we had a choice
the light is getting dim so don't distract me
I can get us home
but you will have it known
that it's only at your will that they will take me

and spark is flaring up behind your eyes
as you drift away to sleep beneath the weight
of the drinks we had to buy to not get angry
because angry would just set us both ablaze

and you'll never know
I've got some fuel of my own
don't think you're all alone
you see it's really all my fault that this ends badly
Track Name: Missed Alarms
my elation would not last the day
so I flew before I fled
and I knew that we would never meet again
until we did
perhaps we shouldn't have

yeah I lied to take that boat
it's not the last time I would lie to stay afloat
and I know that I should never say that name
but I did
perhaps I shouldn't have

let's go out
get fucked up
I don't want you to see me when I'm this far down

I keep on missing the alarms
but who can sleep and tell me where's the harm
and I thought I saw you wave me over
perhaps you did
perhaps you shouldn't have

let's go out
get fucked up
I don't want you to see me when I'm this far down
so take me home
dim the lights
I don't want you to know how far I've gone
this time
