$50 Refund 02:32
I wake up with a coffee down my throat. I’m feeling fine though I don’t mean to gloat I step out to take on the day, you can’t stop me, get out of my way I heard word that he was around a gleeful feeling disguises a frown I’m not sure just what I should do but you’re no help, so I can’t come to you Now I see him standing at the door, don’t want to give it up but he wants more Starting the week with a $50 Refund, I drive myself insane Starting the week with a $50 refund, I’ve no one else to blame I get called to see how I’ve been, “I’m not that great” I say behind a grin ‘I see that’, he says back to me. ‘I tell you I don’t like what I see’ “Well that’s just your opinion, man. I’m struggling but I’m doing all I can” ‘I won’t say what you need to do, you’ve made your choice now it’s up to you’ I’m hearing all these things I should’ve known. I learn my lessons, but it’s never shown Because I’m starting the week with a $50 Refund, I drive myself insane Starting the week with a $50 refund, I’ve no one else to blame

Sootin' Hard 02:45
Always waiting, never stating, all the while deliberating Contemplating what I can find within the reaches of my mind More than just inexplicable, it is downright despicable But, you see, it’s up to me to shape the boy that you all see I’m sootin’ hard! Always bakin’ when we’re wakin’, correct me if I’m mistaken Gives me vision and precision, though it is a bad decision Sockin’ dingers, droppin’ pingers, always ending up with mingers Masturbation, recreation, it is all procrastination I’m sootin’ hard! If you see it, you should be it; do more than to just decree it Have some fun until it’s done, ignoring that it is not the one Where you end up, don’t get fed up; clear your mind and keep your head up Yes, I guess, we shouldn’t stress for what is life if not one big mess? I’m sootin’ hard!

Standing or sitting down, you think that you’re the best around But you’re no better than him or her Sucked in to your own lies, you’re in for such a big surprise When you realise just what you’re worth I don’t want to be the one to spoil the party, but somebody out there has to let you know You’re not as cool as you think you are, you’re not as cool as you think you are You’re not as cool as you think you are, oh no You’re not as cool as you think you are, you’re not as cool as you think you are You’re not as cool as you think you are, oh no You think that we can see just what it is you try to be Left to me, I ask you, what’s the point? The first to criticise, but I see the look in your eyes In the sky, there are stars tonight I don’t want to be the one to spoil the party, but somebody out there has to let you know You’re not as cool as you think you are, you’re not as cool as you think you are You’re not as cool as you think you are, oh no You’re not as cool as you think you are, you’re not as cool as you think you are You’re not as cool as you think you are, oh no I am gonna be the one to spoil the party, I am gonna be the one to let you know You’re not as cool as you think you are, you’re not as cool as you think you are You’re not as cool as you think you are, oh no You’re not as cool as you think you are, you’re not as cool as you think you are You’re not as cool as you think you are, oh no

You’ve got your money for a fancy car, your big pay check’s gonna get you far You’ve got money for what you wanna do… well hey Bossman, I’m askin’ you You spend all your money around, but what about the Postman? You help these villains to commit their crimes. It must’ve happened a thousand times You’re helping people but they don’t need you. Hey, Bossman, what you gonna do? You spend all your money around, but what about the Postman? You’ve got nothing to lose on, but he’s got nothing to choose from Saving his money for a rainy day, but now it’s all gone because you won’t pay He gets to work on time every day, but you don’t have the time to hear what he has to say He just gets stuck in, he puts his head down But when he comes to you for help you kick him out of town Why do you spend all your money around? What about the Postman? What about the Postman? What about the Postman?

Why do you feel the need to get, why do you feel the need to get your end wet? I don’t understand why you’re trying so hard, a big boy like you, it should come easy I’m thinking about everything you say, you’ve got to put it another way Before all of the girls think all the boys are like you If it’s true you think that every hole’s a goal, how can it be that you think they’re all owned by moles? I just don’t believe that that makes any sense, but to say that you have any doesn’t either I’m thinking about everything you do, and how I’m glad that I’m not like you I’d never want to be as desperate as that Big silly Billy with his little old willy got a bit too silly with a girl called Tilly He tried so hard just to get her on her back, but when she turned the cunt down He gave the girl so much flack Well, I suppose “each to their own”, but that’s not the logic that you choose to employ, though I guess we’re just not on the same page. Come and tell me when you start to act your own age How can it be that you think it’s right to try and fuck everything in sight? I can only imagine how lonely you feel Big silly Billy with his little old willy got a bit too crazy with a girl called Maisie When she stopped clinging, he told her she was minging with a dirty old twat Tell me, what do you think about that? Big silly Billy! Big silly Billy with his little old willy. Big silly Billy with his little old willy Big silly Billy. Big silly Billy. You’re just a big silly Billy

Mamma Mia 02:46
I’ve been cheated by you since I don’t know when So I made up my mind it must come to an end Look at me now, will I ever learn? I don’t know how, but I suddenly lose control There’s a fire within my soul Just one look and I can hear a bell ring. One more look and I forget everything. Oh, woah Mamma Mia, here I go again. My, my, how can I resist you? Mamma Mia, does it show again? My, my, just how much I’ve missed you? Yes, I’ve been broken hearted, blue since the day we parted. Why, why did I ever let you go? Mamma Mia, now I really know, my, my, I could never let you go I’ve been angry and sad about things that you do I can’t count all the times that I’ve told you we’re through But, as you go, as you slam the door I think you know that you won’t be away too long You know that I’m not that strong Just one look and I can hear a bell ring. One more look and I forget everything. Oh, woah. Mamma Mia, here I go again. My, my, how can I resist you? Mamma Mia, does it show again? My, my, just how much I’ve missed you? Yes, I’ve been broken hearted, blue since the day we parted. Why, why did I ever let you go? Mamma Mia, now I really know, my, my, I could never let you go
