Happy Song
01:04

This is my happy song
It’s not a crappy song
Might be a sappy song
But it is my happy song
Your toes might tappy song
And fingers snappy song
But it’s a trappy song
And it is my happy song

I was happily playing video games one night
When I was struck with sudden fear
I was brutally hit with all that I have to do
Adulthood’s ugly head did rear
How long can this go on?
How long until we just stop caring?
Swimming patterns against the tide
We’re feigning progress to fuel our pride
Too many choices I can’t decide
Swimming patterns against the tide
How long will all this nonsense last?
Until we all tune out again?
The longer that this thing drags out
The faster my attention fades
I want to stay inside
It’s way too cold outside
My food has been supplied
Let’s build a fort and hide in here

The Irish Goodbye
03:19
|
|||
|
I was out at a bar with a friend or two
Not enjoying myself
Then I thought of a plan to get out of there
And it sorted itself
When it all comes crashing down
You'll know just where to go
When you know it's time to leave
Just go - don't move too slow
When I'm feeling alone standing in a crowd
And my mind's in the sky
I just duck out of there and go somewhere else
It's the Irish goodbye
Well I've had such a great time
But my bed is calling and I must go

Video Games

I don’t need your help and advice
I’m good on my own, thank you
Everything I needed to know
I learned in kindergarten
I don’t wanna go to school
I don’t wanna go to work
I don’t wanna do my chores
I just wanna play video games
Video games (video games)
Video games (video games)
I wanna stay home and play
Video games (video games)
I don’t wanna do homework
I don’t wanna eat my beans
I don’t wanna go to bed
I just wanna play video games

Grounded For Life
02:14
|

Everything sucks when you're like me
Grounded for life I'm never free
Sooner or later you will so
I don't respect authority
Everything sucks when life's not fair
My room has never felt so bare
Not allowed to go anywhere
But too bad for you I don't care
Yes I know what I did was wrong
But it makes for an awesome song, so...
I don't have to listen to you
I don't have to listen to you
I don't have to listen to you
I'm gonna do whatever I want
Everything sucks when no one knows
Mom never lets me go to shows
Look outside and it always snows
Grounded for life aw man this blows

Tap Into the Potential
04:12
|
|||
|
When I first heard the driver song
I thought it was the weirdest thing
But I was drawn to listen more
And they became my favorite band
The sound that moved the earth
The sound that proved its worth
The sound that moved the earth
The sound that proved its worth to me
When I first heard the side two thing
I didn't think much of it then
But that's because I was a kid
And now it's just my favorite part
And we all have our influence
And if you don't you'll find them soon
You don't have to leave the house
All you need is a record player
Just sit back and hear some tunes
Soon enough you'll be at the music store

Meteor Shower
03:51

On my way to be with you
I got lost inside my head
Guess I wasn't thinking straight
And I made a left instead
How did I end up out here
In the stars and all the snow
No I won't be here for long
I just want to watch the show
I pull over on the street
By the snow that's piled so high
I turn off the radio
While they light the cloudless sky
Someone calls and I decline
Cherishing this time alone
I don't mean to be so rude
Noise is all I've ever known
On my way to be with you
I got lost inside my head
Guess I wasn't thinking straight
And I made a left instead

Take the Stairs
03:16
|
|||
|
I've been standing here waiting for the elevator
For what feels like an hour or so
Now I'm thinking I might have made the wrong decision
Man this stupid thing is way too slow
Have you considered other steps
You look like somebody who cares
If you're concerned with making progress
Maybe next time take the stairs
I've been standing here waiting for a taxi driver
For what feels like a day and a half
It's too cold out and I have lost all shreds of patience
No one to blame for this time wasting gaffe

Encased in Ice
03:19
|
|||
|
It's getting ridiculous
This winter's nonsensical
I just want to go somewhere
And break this vicious cycle
I'm getting cabin fever again
I tried to leave the house
And find some paradise
But I could not get out
My car's encased in ice
So take me away from this
And please put me on a plane
Then fly me to some place warm
And before I go insane
I swear I'm seeing things that aren't there
And I'm encased in ice stuck inside

Luna
05:22
|

|
And our mission was set in stone
Travel outwards and touch the sky
Knowing we might not make it home
But still too good to pass it by
And onward and upward
We journey beyond us
Our rocket will bond us
So onward and upward
When we broke through into the night
Earth looked different from way up there
Time meant nothing without daylight
We found meaning beyond the air
We fell in awe
Our lunar flight was a success
This starless sky
Earth rises gives us our new day

Blanket Fort
03:40
|
|||
|
Outside is a huge snowstorm
I'm staying inside
I'll build me a blanket fort
Watch cartoons all night
I checked the forecast and it sure looks grim
Two feet of snowfall before Monday's end
The cold air hits me with its phantom limb
So I'll just stay here TV is my friend
I've got my rations stocked
My cupboards are all full
I've got bread milk and beer
I'm ready for this bull
So nature do your worst
Looked out my window it's incredible
I can't see the house that's across the street
This type of blizzard unforgettable
Everything's closed so I'll retake my seat
