Don't Mess Up 04:08
lyrics
buy track
Just cause the stars align for your moment Finish lines aren't crossed when you toe em So don't mess up There you go standing on the outside You know when the chance is there you cannot be Weightless in wind, you'll fight & fight So don't mess up In walks the girl of your dreams and you're wasted Make your move or face it If only I knew there was a sign To take me back in time for no reason or rhyme Just don't mess up When the crowd's upside down, turn the bass up Why mess with formulas? Just cause the stars are aligned If you don't show than you won't shine A lesson learned forward in time So don't mess up

Sorry, Not Sorry 03:51

I'm not sorry I'm not sorry, at all I will never give up what's under my sleeve away I'm not sorry

Rise & gasp for air Bleed your lung as fare Then get leather boots to faces Thanks for your service, that's payment Drag the lean ashore All the bits are torn You're on Vulture Pit Island And they're laughing all the way to the bank Ain't nothing that's sacred around here Their iron claws are miles drawn around you 'Round & 'round & 'round they circle 'Round & 'round & 'round they go Now or then someone will tell those Vultures go in attack mode They won't turn around 'Round & 'round & 'round they circle Ain't nothing that's sacred around here Fresh new blood with teeth The challenge bests the feast We don't skin the fur from eyelids Mangled bones service our pallets Now's the time for prey Honor all we say You're on Vulture Pit Island Born on date innocent They won't turn around 'Round & 'round & 'round they circle 'Round & 'round & 'round they go Now or then someone will tell those Vultures go in attack mode

about

Exactly the opposite of what you'd expect from a blues guitarist...

* Enter George

George : It's not working, Jerry. It's just not working.

Jerry : What is it that isn't working?

George : Why did it all turn out like this for me? I had so much promise. I was personable, I was bright. Oh, maybe not academically speaking, but ... I was perceptive. I always know when someone's uncomfortable at a party. It became very clear to me sitting out there today, that every decision I've ever made, in my entire life, has been wrong. My life is the opposite of everything I want it to be. Every instinct I have, in every facet of life, be it something to wear, something to eat ... It's all been wrong.

( A waitress comes up to G )

Waitress : Tuna on toast, coleslaw, cup of coffee.

George : Yeah. No, no, no, wait a minute, I always have tuna on toast. Nothing's ever worked out for me with tuna on toast. I want the complete opposite of tuna on toast. Chicken salad, on rye, untoasted ... and a cup of tea.

Elaine : Well, there's no telling what can happen from this.

( A blonde looks at George )

Elaine : Ah, George, you know, that woman just looked at you.

George : So what? What am I supposed to do?

Elaine : Go talk to her.

George : Elaine, bald men, with no jobs, and no money, who live with their parents, don't approach strange women.

Jerry : Well here's your chance to try the opposite. Instead of tuna salad and being intimidated by women, chicken salad and going right up to them.

George : Yeah, I should do the opposite, I should.

Jerry : If every instinct you have is wrong, then the opposite would have to be right.

George : Yes, I will do the opposite. I used to sit here and do nothing, and regret it for the rest of the day, so now I will do the opposite, and I will do

something!

( He goes over to the woman )

George : Excuse me, I couldn't help but notice that you were looking in my direction.

Victoria : Oh, yes I was, you just ordered the same exact lunch as me.

( G takes a deep breath )

George : My name is George. I'm unemployed and I live with my parents.

Victoria : I'm Victoria. Hi.
