Spit It Out 04:01
Happy birthday on the phone 3 AM You took 30 pills Suck the life out of the night And spit it out All over the morning Like a drunk little lamb Slept on the pike Almost got killed What happened to your cigarette? Do I smell something burning? Happy endings all around Keep your feet planted And when the world stops turning You’ll be the first one running And we will all be tuning in Until you change channels again Took a ride into town On your behalf And lost everything Can’t expect apology You’re alive Just count your blessings You’re an expert, you’re a pro You’ve paid your dues Out like a light Friends like you are hard to lose You cost a lot of money (chorus) The mirror’s not your friend It’s no big joke You can’t go home (chorus)

They moved in last month, took the old name off the box Pulled all the shades and changed all the locks Sometimes I hear screaming, but then it just stops And the silence is eerie and calm He comes down the hall like a bat out of hell A door-to-door salesman with nothing good to sell I ain’t seen her in weeks, I sure hope that she is well But I’ll admit I’ve got my doubts You can kind of hear it if you put your ear to the wall Something not right is going down across the hall Sometimes I wonder what love is even for When I hear she’s a tramp, she’s a bitch, she’s a whore At least that’s what he calls her before he knocks her to the floor But she says she loves him too much to go (She loves him) You can kind of hear it if you put your ear to the wall Something not right is going down across the hall Don’t call 911 ’cause she’ll swear it’s her own fault Something not right is going down

Julia's Cold 03:35
Can I come over tonight baby? Please say yes, I can’t take another maybe Meet me at the bar by the telephone building I’ll be the one waiting there all night for you Every time I ask you to come down You’ve come down with something new What in the world am I to do Three whole days without seeing you Now Julia’s caught herself a cold And I don’t want to catch it too You’re so evasive when I call you Probably sick in bed feeling awful I don’t want to waste a day But you keep backing away And I’m at the bar waiting all night for you I don’t know what came over me I just had to tell you I was way into your scene I’m sorry if that headache that’s keeping you in tonight Has anything to do with me Won’t you be my valentine, Julia What in the world am I to do Two more weeks without seeing you Now Julia’s caught herself a cold And it’s turned into the flu Why won’t you come with me tonight I think I could make you feel alright Julia please hang up the phone And come on I’ve got something for you

Why you got to go and go crazy Girl you just amaze me With all your little tics You can take the dogs and the money Just stop acting so funny My bella lunatic Now I’ve come to the realization that I’ve got to skip town before the roof caves in And it’s caving in Get off me, I don’t want this I’m so tired of your therapist And your karate action figures Just cluttering my space I used to want to remember this place People talking all round the city Things ain’t look pretty As far as we’re concerned Washed right out the back of the basement But what’s the replacement We both end up getting burned Now I’m done with the alienation And I’ve got to skip town I’m warning the engine now, here it comes Get off me, I don’t want this I’m so tired of your therapist And your parade of new best friends All up in my face I used to want to remember this place Not now Get off me, I don’t want this I’m so tired of your therapist And your karate action figures Just cluttering my space I used to want to remember But that’s not me, I’m not like that I’m so tired of your therapist And your parade of new best friends All up in my face I used to want to remember this place
