Capulets 04:07
Capulets *Whistle* Well I've read Juliet Couldn't tell you what she meant Was that girl just running around on him? Did she make it to his side of town Just to keep him up in bed, singing, "Daddy don't let me out past ten" Just like all Capulets, but That girl, Mona Lisa Pretty sure she's showin some teeth now Ain't been runnin around no more but Romeo is sinkin like a stone I know she's actin like she's classy But she's got her hands around his neck I know she’s acting like she’s dancing But she’s got her hands around his neck Just like all Capulets, I said, I hope that it gets warm again So all the girls want to take off their clothes Hope they're who they've always been Cause these August nights are getting cold *Whistle* But the girl, Juliet She went and got inside his hea It's blood red, spider webs, You know the boys, they love the pretense And now she's actin kind of sexy, likes to dance after 5am I know she's actin like she's classy But she's got her hands around his neck Just like all Capulets

Small Talk 02:10
Small Talk If it ain't about the money you'll make And the new shoes sitting in the closet Then it's all about the new paint job And the black card filling out your wallet Tell me all about the skyscrapers And your 'just right' porridge If you're pissed about the discount, better run it back darlin' You're waking up most mornings hoping that you'd ever wanted it this way Are you running out of small things to say? Tell me all about your beach house blues And the book club spinning out your gossip All about the first choice boarding school The trust fund's kickin' in in August All about your comfort colors And the New York diet How your kids' classmates came to be so violent Cryin’ and your bed spread's threads count tears of Cabernet Are you running out of small things to say?

Lullaby 02:44
Lullaby As a young man I thought I'd run out of love So I sold my soul to the devil for twenty five dollars And these good looks I won't let you get older My little roller coaster Pour me another drink and We could be a moth and a flame I ain't no gentleman I have been told Lullabies, lover, save your 'goodnights' My love it won't grow old One too many bottles; gods with which to quarrel, Yours and mine are the same thing I won't let you get older, My little roller coaster Pour me another drink and We could be a moth and a flame Chorus I ain't no gentleman I have been told Lullabies, lover, save your "goodnights" My love it won't grow old

Yours & Mine 03:51
Yours and Mine Like Johnny and June Beset by the ‘Scourge of Saskatoon’ Singin' something 'bout a train Or an early grave Like she was holdin his heart By the neck of a red guitar Then she pulled the pin from her hair And it blew apart The cookies never crumbled And they always seemed so sweet And their beauty last'd forever May we never dig too deep And we'll still get high on their memories Still get high on their memory, oh I hope ya find yours and I find mine (Hey,) it's always been about us love I hope ya find yours and I find mine (Hey,) it's always been about us love You were holdin my hand There's a fire, and another man There's a passenger seat, Somewhere far from me And when I play it back It feels like summer (and a heart attack) And ‘what's the point of doin anything, If they ain't gonna pay ya well?’ Well you're ten feet tall in the legends I tell, Breathin' fire and raisin' hell But ya still get high on my memory So why'd ya never get high with me? I hope ya find yours and I find mine (hey) It's always been about us love You said This is the story And these are the rules I'll never letcha go Without a piece a me Every broken chorus Between bars of blues, Johnny never let her down, Nah, he never set her free I hope ya find yours and I find mine (hey) It's always been about us love Our love, our love It's always been about us love

New York, NY 03:49
New York, NY The sirens in the city are just keeping you safe But you don't seem too keen to let the breeze blow in You got your fire escape, You got your bottle of Jameson Of all the broads in Brooklyn You'd sure keep me in my place, Skip the honeymoon and kick me straight in the face I gotta go grab a coat And keep you warm Gotta go Grab a coat, and keep you warm Chorus: You turn so quick in the city from a sage to a fool Oh your highness, how's radio silence?This siren's for you So ya took a train out to old New York To see best of the best And the worst of the worst Loudmouths squinting from the cigarettes Reminiscing ‘bout the books they've read, Yup, la di da The trees in Tennessee were just keepin you sick I know 23 was a son of a bitch I gotta go, grab a coat and keep you warm

S.O.S. I found land to be pretty dry but South side girls are built like a battleship And I'll be sinking in this port I used to think my girl was pretty fine But south side girl's got eyes like a goddamn wildfire, baby, when I was in the Navy, Honey, I was sinkin ships, but they never made em quite like this I found land to be pretty dry, But for the bite I had on the line; She was a leg up on my lady When I was in the Navy, honey, I was sinkin ships, but they never made em quite like this So wink if you could smile for me honey I think you're the one and it's all goin' down If you please, you could have me on my knees I've seen the fastest of the fish They were never shinin' quite like this I’ve been fishing for a girl like you One to help me fall for all the rules And you're a wild-eyed lady, A seminary waitin’, There've been some that tried to save me But they never made me quite like this And I wanna get high with you honey And I wanna go all the way If you please, you could have me on my knees I've seen the fastest of the fish, They were never shinin' quite like this

Leslie Likes it Loud Back when she was Daisy Fay Sweeter dreams were never far away But now that I'm wide awake Am I forgetting everything I know you thought about thinkin about it In the mirror there, posturing underwear All your friends were laughin loudly As they twisted and brushed your hair And if you'd a found your way about me Coulda torn that alarm clock off The wall was risin by the minute darlin’ We never pitied the broken-hearted You’d said, "Ain't that heartless?" I said, “babe, I'm just getting started” Leslie likes to rock the boat but this ship ain't coming home I've seen her fake it on the phone, and claim she ‘used to smoke’ And 'Mr. Darcy's got it so figured out' And in that regard, I was just as hopeless as they come Say, darlin', do you like to be alone? The games we played were truly flawless Did your mama teach you that? You had me laughing at all my parties Like I had finally met my match And if you'd have found your way about me Coulda torn that sail right off The tide was rising by the minute darlin’ We never pitied the broken hearted You said 'Ain't that heartless?' I said, "babe, I'm just getting started" [Chorus] Go ahead and tell me you love it now And darlin' say that you want more sound And I won't tell them ‘turn it down,’ 'cause Leslie likes it loud She likes it la la la la la la la la loud Likes it, la la la la la la la loud She likes it
