Pack Up The Cats

You heard that we were great
But now you think we're lame
Since you saw the show last night
You hoped that we would rock
Knock it up a notch
Rockin was nowhere in sight
And its never good when it goes bad
No one likes to feel like they've been had
And it may be ok
But you won't wear our t-shirts now
Anymore
First the band looked wired
Then the band looked tired
Sluggish and a little slow
He's walking through the set
As drunk as he could get
And what the hell was wrong with joe?
And you could tell the crowd was fading fast
Every song we played looser than the last
And it may be ok
But you won't wear our t-shirts now
All the kids, they hold a grudge
Their minds are logged onto the net
And all the kids, they hold a grudge
You fail them and they won't forget it
All the kids, they're tired and turn away
They saw what you did
You're all wrong and all the kids are right
You heard that we were great
But now you know we're lame
Since you saw the show last night
You hoped that we would rock
You wished that we'd just stop
And finally we said "good night"
When we had returned for the encore
You and half the room had headed for the door
No one wanted more
All the kids, they hold a grudge
Their minds are logged onto the net
And all the kids, they hold a grudge
You fail them and they won't forget it
Next!

Sucking like a crack hack
Feeling like an 8-track
Out of whack
All the times a clucking no
A suckit and a suckit
I don't want to live with that
And you don't want to take it back
And i don't want to be a rat
And you don't want a kitty cat
Reaching for the phone ring
Settle for the chump change
Settle down
Make it like a godsend
Feeling like a has-been
Remember when
All the times a clucking no
A suckit and a suckit
All the times a clucking no
A suckit and a suckit
I don't want to live with that
And you don't want to take it back
And i don't want to be a rat
And you don't want a kitty cat

She's my girl, she hates my job
She'd trade it all in for the time that it's robbed
She's ok, she don't lay blame
But she hates my job all the same
She hates my job
She won't say
I don't think i want to ask her anyway
I know something's gotta give
She hates my job but she'll live
She hates my job
Its all alright, she just hates my job
She'll admit it's not half bad
I love my job and so does her mom and dad
She hates my job
She hates my job but i love her anyway
She hates my job

All-right, oh yeah
Here we go, i'm back again
Act surprised when i come in
It's only me
It's only stupid me
You could never figure out
What was all the fuss about
I know its me
It's only stupid me
All-right, oh yeah
Sickel-cell anemia
Carpal tunnel and bolemia
Don't get sick
It's only stupid me
You think you got the real deal
Damaged goods are such a steal
It serves you right
Its only stupid me
All-right
All-right, oh yeah
All-right
I see you coming round again
Pushed aside and muscle in
When everything is said and done its me
It's only stupid me
All-right, oh yeah

I never fail to catch the small details
Bigger things just seem to trigger things
You only know because i told you so
And yeah, i guess that's fine
Its only me
Now who else would it be?
With you
Such a lucky time
With everything to prove
To you
Its such a lucky time
With everything to prove
I'll never be just who i want to be
I've bought into the things i'd never do
I know you know but you never tell me so
And i cannot repay
Let me try to make it up to you
And soon
Its such a lucky time
With everything to prove
To you
Its such a lucky time
With everything to prove
I never fail to catch the small details
I'm catching on
That nothing will last that long
You can't be shamed if you've never played their games
Around the room to play
Its only you with nothing left to prove
But i don't want to lose this lucky time
With everything to prove
To you
Its such a lucky time
With everything to prove
To you
Its such a lucky time
With everything to prove

I'm living well
I'm living well
I'm living well
I'm living well
I'm eating right, i'm working out
I'm living well
I'm eating right, i'm working out
I'm living well
I'm living well
I'm living well

Standing at the edge of something
Where discussions are like concussions
Whisper in my ear
Cigarettes and beer
They don't call me cool for nothing
Too cool for school
Nobody's fool
Screw all the rules
My mind's abused
Not quite amused
I'm just confused
Yeah
Comes so easily
When everything you want is suspect
Attracted to the cool magnet
Only adding to the confusion
Dillusions are like illusions
I haven't got the heart to tell them all apart
I think i might need a transfusion
Too cool for that
A cataract
A triple sec
Don't get upset
We're to exact
Forget the facts
Yeah
Comes so easily
When everything you want is suspect
Attracted to the cool magnet

Say what you want to say to me
I don't know who you know
But that'll change eventually
I wanna know who you know
Wanna see what you say and have a field day today
Don't need a reason
Wanna go where you go
Wanna see what you say and have a field day today
I wanna go
I'm all alone
Once you've been for a skid
I'm all alone
Doing everything you did
No one cares and no one calls
But the party in the bathroom stall
Everyone is telling jokes that i don't get at all
I'm all alone
Hey, whatcha wanna pay for me?
I'm in love with rock'n'roll
But that'll change eventually
I wanna know who you know
Wanna see what you say and have a field day today
Don't need a reason
Wanna go where you go
Wanna see what you say and have a field day today
I wanna go
I'm all alone
Once you've been for a skid
I'm all alone
Doing everything you did
No one cares and no one calls
But the party in the bathroom stall
No one's gonna call a number written on the wall
I'm all alone
No one cares and no one calls
But the party in the bathroom stall
No one's gonna call a number written on the wall
I'm all alone
